All the cards I share in the next few weeks will be using the In the Amazon Bundle and the Part Tres Extras Bundle:
Jungle Amigos Stamp Set
Jungle Amigos Dies
Peruvian Market Patterned Paper
Lima Sequin Mix
Deepest Darkest Peru Cover Plate
Scallop Square Dies
Tickets & Tape Dies
Just Right Duos Sentiments Stamp Set

To create this shaker card, I started by die cutting the Deepest Darkest Peru Cover Plate on white cardstock. I ink blended Melon Ice and Grass Skirt, focusing the lighter shade of green towards the center.

On my pre-scored card base, I blended Grass Skirt. I spritzed my die cut and card base with water. Then, I splattered my favorite white and black acrylic paints (mixed with water) onto both.

Next, I stamped my images from the Jungle Amigos Stamp Set and then colored them with alcohol markers. I like to add highlights with the a white gelly roll pen. Once I was finished coloring, I cut them using the coordinating Jungle Amigos Dies.

To create the shaker portion of the card, I trimmed an acetate sheet to a teeny bit smaller than my die cut frame. I adhered the sheet to my frame using redline tape. Then, I applied 3D foam tape to create depth between the layers and hold my Big Apple Sequin Mix shakers inside.

I propped my cute sloth and branch up using my favorite 3D foam squares. I used Bearly Arts Precision Glue to glue my flowers on.

Heffy Doodle + Chibitronics IG Hop

Hey friends! Did you see we’re doing a Collaboration Hop between Heffy Doodle and Chibitronics on Instagram!? There are prizes are up for grabs!!

I created this fun light-up card using the Craft with Light Kit – White by Chibitronics. I used lots of Heffy Doodle products! Keep reading on for those links!

First, I created my bright background! I blended some Catherine Pooler inks through my Zapp Attack and Cogs & Code Stencil. I used Heffy Memo Tape to mask off the top and bottom of my card.

I stamped my images from the Bots of Love Stamp Set and then I colored them in with OLO markers. I cut them out using the coordinating dies.

Once I decided where I wanted my lights, I started to prepare for the wiring.

  1. I poked holes through the robots’ hearts where I want the bulbs to show.
  2. Then, I placed the robots on the background where they were going to be glued down once the card is assembled. I made a mark with a pencil through the robots’ heart holes onto the background.
  3. Then, I poked holes through the pencil marks on the background panel.
  4. Lastly, I used a pencil to make marks on my card base where the lights need to be placed.

On my card base, using the pencil marks I made in the last step as a guide, I’ve made marks where the + and – wires need to line up. I did this by taking the lights and placing them down onto my card base so the light was right over top of the pencil mark. Then, I looked at where the copper + and – are on the light unit and drew lines where I need the wires to be lined up to touch the copper part.

I’ve also created a “housing unit” for my battery with a plus and minus sign on it, so I know which way to insert the battery once it’s time. I also marked where I want the battery to be on the card base.

Next, I started by taking my tape and cutting it in half down the center to create smaller/narrower pieces. This isn’t necessary, but was helpful with navigating the tape.

I adhered my battery housing unit to my card base and started placing my + tape. This tape is the top wire which goes to the base of the battery housing unit.

Then, I placed my – tape which starts on the flap of the battery housing unit.

Next, I used 3D foam tape around the whole base of the card to “lift” my card front up so the battery doesn’t stick out farther than the rest of front panel. I attached the stamped images with 3D foam squares, making sure to line the robots up to the lights properly.

Come join in the IG HOP to enter to win the prizes from Heffy Doodle and Chibitronics!

Thank you so much for stopping by my blog today! Enjoy the Hop!

Life is Better with YOU

Hey friends! How do we feel about the color purple?? I tend to lean towards the pinks and yellows for my cards, for whatever reason. However, I am loving this color combo of Sixteen Candles, Pixie Dust, and Drive-In! What do you think??

Today, I am sharing a new card using the NEWLY RELEASED Love and Lace Collection from Catherine Pooler!

I created this beautiful card using the Yours Truly Stamp Set. After I ink blended my purple inks, I stamped the elements from the Yours Truly Stamp Set all around the background with black ink.
I created the white frame using the new Fancy Loop Die.
I stamped my sentiment from the Forever Yours Sentiments Stamp Set with WOW Embossing Glue Ink and then applied white embossing powder to it. I heated it up with my favorite new heat tool!

Stay tuned as I continue to share more projects made using this New Collection!

DIY Gift Card Pocketfold using the Thank You Kindly Bundle

Hey friends! Did you come to learn how to make this gift card holder? It’s SO easy to make! Craft along with me! Grab your scoring board and bone folder, a piece of 8.5″x11″ cardstock, some patterned paper, some stamp sets and some dies!

Start by creating your pocketfold out of 8.5″x11″ cardstock and your scoring board. On the longer edge, score at 3″ and 8″. Turn the paper 90 degrees and score the shorter edge at 2 3/8″ and 6 1/8″. Using scissors, cut your corners off completely. Fold and score on the remaining score lines. Use a corner punch to round your corners.

Now, you can decorate your pocketfold! Use patterned paper, such as the Bee Thankful Paper Pad! I also used the Ruffles and Dashes Dies to add a stitched border to my inside paper.

Don’t forget to decorate both sides!

Now, let’s make the gift card holder pocket. Using the 2nd smallest scallop frame from the Ruffles and Dashes Dies, cut out a piece of patterned cardstock. You want the inside of your pocket to be 2″ x 3.5″. Make a score line on your sides at 3/4″. Trim off the bottom so you’re left with 2 3/4″. Score the bottom so you have a 3/4″ flap. Use scissors to angle cut the 2 bottom corners.

Now create some decorations! I used the Corner Swag Stamp Set and the Thank You Kindle Stamp Set. I used OLO markers to color in my stamped images and a Gelly Roll pen to create my highlights. I cut out the stamped images with the coordinating die sets.

To hold my pocketfold together, I punched 2 holes on the front flap and the bottom flap and threaded through some Torch Twine.
