Let’s Create an Ocean Scene!

March 28, 2023March 21, 2023 amandafittererLeave a comment

Hello and Happy Tuesday, crafty friends!! I hope your week is off to a great start so far! Let’s make this Heffy Doodle Mix and Match card together!

Let’s start with the background! First, we’re going to blend a piece of white cardstock trimmed down to 4″x5.25″. Blend the top of the panel (that will be visible) with Catherine Pooler’s Pucker Up ink. Then, blend Catching Rays ink through the Rays the Roof Stencil. The Simple Sunburst Stencil would also work great here. Next, die cut one of the Silver Linings Cloud Border Dies and add a bit of the Pucker Up ink to the top of it. Now, die cut 4 of the Breaking Waves Border Dies. Ink blend the waves with Minted, Seafoam, and Skylight inks. Spritz all the ink blended areas with water. For the waves, take a bit of the Skylight and flick it with a water brush onto the waves. Do the same with the sky and clouds using Pucker Up.

Now that we have our background done and drying, we can start working on stamping and coloring! Stamp the images from the You Go, Gull and Special Delivery stamp sets. Color them with whatever medium you like! I’m using the OLO alcohol markers. Once they’re all colored, they’re ready to be die cut with the coordinating dies.

The final step is to adhere everything down to an A2 sized white card base! I’ve used my favorite Bearly Arts Precision Craft Glue to attach my clouds and top 2 waves. I’ve used 3D foam tape to attach the bottom 2 waves. Then, I’ve used 3D foam squares for the stamped images and sentiment!

For the finishing touch, I added a few sequins! Did you see the Heffy Doodlers Challenge this month on Facebook? If you like adding sequins to your projects, you might want to enter and maybe win a prize!! You can JOIN HERE!

Well, friends, I hope you’re feeling inspired from this post! Tag me on Instagram if you make a project using this as inspiration!! I’d love to see how you made it your own!! Xx, Amanda

Life is Better with YOU

January 13, 2023 amandafittererLeave a comment

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!

Shop the New Collection

Roses & Lace Bundle

Yours Truly Bundle

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!

Heffy Doodle New Release Inspiration Blog Hop

September 7, 2022September 7, 2022 amandafitterer22 Comments

Welcome to the Heffy Doodle New Release Inspiration Blog Hop! We are so excited to share amazing cards from our Design Team members using the new release! For today’s special Blog Hop, you can win a £50 voucher to the Heffy Doodle store!

You can shop the BRAND NEW RELEASE HERE!

Get your Sweetie Pie stamp set for FREE with a £30 spend (not inc. shipping). And get the coordinating dies too with a £45+ spend!

To create this trifold card, I started with a sheet of cardstock trimmed to 4.5″ x 11″. I scored at the 3″ mark and the 6″ mark.

For all of my rainbow blending, I’m using Maker Forte’s Color Hive Inks in the colors Flamingo, Yellowstone, and Vegas Strip. This is my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE rainbow blend! You can get a huge range of colors from just these 3 colors!

Here’s how I get the best blend:
1. I start with Yellowstone and blend it in the center of my cardstock.
2. Next, I blend Flamingo on the top of my cardstock (reaching all the way to the top). I gently blend the Flamingo into the Yellowstone to create an orange color.
3. I grab my Vegas Strip and repeat the process on the bottom of the cardstock.
4. Now, I take my Vegas Strip and blend a purple at the very tippy top of the cardstock to create a pinky-purple blend.
5. Then, I get my Flamingo again and blend at the very bottom of the cardstock to create a blue-purple blend.
6. If needed, I will take my Yellowstone brush and just lightly blend into the Flamingo and Vegas Strip.
7. I usually also spritz my background with a Mister Perfect Spray Bottle filled with regular water. I will also sometimes flick white watercolor paint using a Watercolor Brush.

For this panel, I blended my rainbow using the new Bean Scene Stencil. To create a little peek-a-boo, I’m using the flap die from the Slimline Scallop Peekaboo Dies.

If you were wondering what sort of black and white paper I’m using for my striped paper, you’ll be happy to know that I made it myself! I simply used the chisel end of a marker! I wanted them to look hand-drawn, so I just freehanded it! Easy peasy!

For this little panel, I’ve used the new Notre Dame Stencil! I’ve also made some more peekaboos using the little dies from the Treemendous Peekaboo Dies.

For my front panel, I’ve used the Love is Everywhere Stencil. I have also used my new favorite tool (the Cropadile!) to add some eyelets to the front of my card to hold my baker’s twine! I made sure to add my eyelets and twine before gluing down the inside panel!

For my sentiment, I’ve used the Gumbelievable Stamp Set and stamped the sentiment on black cardstock using Embossing Glue. Then, I sprinkled white embossing powder to the sentiment and melted the powder with a heat gun.

For my super adorable shaker lollipop, I’ve used the NEW Sweet Tooth Shaker Dies! Omg, are they adorable or what?! You can make all sorts of sweets and shakers! For my stripes, I used my chisel marker again! I mixed and matched Sparkle Mixes to get all the colors of the rainbow in there.

For my adorable candy jar and gumball machine, I’ve used the Gumbelievable Stamp Set again and then added a layer of Glossy Accents over top! I used OLO markers to color all my images.

For my little circles, I used the circle confetti dies that come in the Sweet Tooth Shaker Dies.

I hope you have LOVED seeing how I made this rainbowy fun mini trifold card!

Ridiculously Proud of You

April 14, 2022April 6, 2022 amandafitterer1 Comment

Did you see my last post where I created that beautiful rainbow background with the Scattered Hearts Cover Plate?? Today, I’m going to share the card I made using it!

To make this card, I die cut the Scattered Hearts Cover Plate on a piece of white cardstock. Once cut, I grabbed another piece of white cardstock and placed it underneath my die cut piece. Then, I blended a rainbow with Maker Forte Flamingo, Yellowstone, and Neon Lights inks. This gives me TWO backgrounds at once!

For my sweet pup, I used Enjoy the Little Things stamp set. I colored him with Copic markers and then die cut him with the coordinating dies. I propped him up with 3D foam squares and put him on a piece of round vellum.

For my sentiment, I grabbed my Brighter Days Sentiment Cards and trimmed out the “just so ridiculously proud of you” sentiment.

For the finishing touch, I added some rainbow colored gems!

The next step was to attach my heart background to a black card base with liquid glue.

Ex Libris Birdcages

April 6, 2022March 31, 2022 amandafittererLeave a comment

Oh my gosh! I love the new Lovebirds Stamp Set, don’t you?! The whole Ex Libris Collection is finally available for purchase now! Woot woot!

Although I ADORE the new ink colors, I am a Party Collection girl myself! So, I wanted to showcase this stamp set using a Party rainbow blended background. I blended Party Dress, Limoncello, and Fiesta Blue to create a gorgeous rainbow background. I also spritzed the background with water to create some texture!

Once I had my background blended, I stamped my birdcages and sentiment straight onto my background. Then, I used a ruler and black Copic pen to draw lines from my birdcages to the top of the card.

DIY Mini Journal with 6×6 Patterned Ppaer

April 4, 2022March 28, 2022 amandafitterer1 Comment

Heya, friends! Are you getting excited that it’s ALMOST time to get your new Catherine Pooler goodies?!

I’m sharing tons of inspiration from the Lovebirds Bundle!

I have step-by-step instructions on creating this mini journal.. so read on!

I’m starting out with my uber-professional looking template! 😉
1. Cut a piece of white cardstock down to 4.75″ x 7.25″.
2. Score it at 3.5″ and 3.75″.
3. Round off your corners with a corner punch, if desired.

Grab your patterned paper – I’m using the new Twilight Reading Paper Pack.
4. Cut down smaller pieces of cardstock that are approximately .25″ less for each layer. I’m using the Scallops and Dots Dies and a paper trimmer.
5. If you rounded your edges on your white cardstock base, you’ll probably want to round these off as well. I’m only rounding the right corners.

6. Use a small hole punch or poker tool to create a small hole for a brad.
7. Place a brad in the hole, giving yourself room to wrap twine around a few times.

8. On the inner flap, tape a piece of twine that’s long enough to wrap around your mini journal 2-4 times, depending on what you want it to look like.

9. Glue a piece of patterned cardstock on the front flap to cover the tape and brad. My piece of paper is 3.25″ x 4.5″. I’m also using the same size and paper for the other flap.

I’m going to add a little more interest on the front of mine by stamping some birdcages from the Lovebirds stamp set with the new Apricot ink. Im going to trim that down and glue it to the front.

Now we’re ready to work on the inside!
10. Grab a piece of patterned paper and trim it down to 3.75″ x 2.5″.
11. Score at .5″ and 3.5″. Turn 90 degrees and score at .5″.

12. Use some scissors to cut triangles out of the flaps.

13. Use red tape to secure the pocket to your mini journal.

14. Grab some computer paper. Trim strips that are 8″ x 2.75″. Fold them in half and secure them together with a stapler. Stamp an image in the corner on one or all of the pages.
15. Use red tape to secure it to the inside of your journal.

16. Create some tags out of coordinating patterned paper and stick them in your pocket!

That’s it!

I hope you enjoyed this post and try to make your own mini journal!

Hey friends! It’s that time again! A NEW RELEASE from Catherine Pooler is coming out!! Yippee!! And I get to share the Lovebirds Bundle with you! Plus, the NEW INKS! I’m SOOO in love with this release!

Today I’m sharing a card I made using the new Stitch Your Diamonds and Cross Your X’s Dies, the new Ginger, Apricot, and Terracotta Inks, the new Twilight Reading Paper Pack and the new Lovebirds Stamp Set!

To make this card, I used the Stitch Your Diamonds Die on white cardstock. Then, I ink blended it with Apricot, Ginger, and Terracotta inks. For my background, I used a piece of the Twilight Reading paper and die cut it with the Cross Your X’s Die. I layered them on top of each other and adhered them with liquid glue to my card base.

I stamped my Lovebirds and sentiment with black ink and then used Copic markers to color them in. I cut them out using the coordinating dies. I added some London Mix sequins to finish the card off!

Ex Libris Beautiful Birdcage

April 1, 2022March 28, 2022 amandafittererLeave a comment

The first card I get to share with you showcase the new Twilight Reading Paper Pack, the new Apricot Ink, and the new Lovebirds Stamp Set!

I used the Circle Dies to cut out a circle in the bottom right portion of my patterned paper. I blended my circle cutout with the new Apricot ink. I trimmed down a piece of white cardstock and used my circle die to remove that section of my white strip. I stamped my sentiment from the Lovebirds stamp set in the open space on the left side.

I stamped my birdcage with black ink and then used a Copic marker to lightly color it in. I propped my patterned paper up with 3D foam tape to create more dimension. I added some London Mix sequins to finish the card off!

Are you as excited about this release as I am?! You can start shopping the New Release on Tues, April 5th if you’re a StampNation member! Everyone else gets to start shopping on Weds, April 6th!

Sneak Peek: Just Plain FABULOUS!

March 11, 2022March 1, 2022 amandafittererLeave a comment

The Celebrate Spring Release is TOTALLY FABULOUS!

I’ve made this card using the brand new Flower Power Slimline Die and the Just Plain Fabulous Stamp Set, plus the Fabulous Word Die.

To make this card, I cut 4 of the Fabulous Word Die out of white cardstock.

I glued each of them on top of one another. Then I dabbed the die cut onto a Embossing Ink. I added Glitz Wow! Embossing Powder to it and then used a heat tool to melt the powder.

I ink blended Orange Peel, Pink Champagne, and Tranquil onto a piece of white cardstock. I die cut a panel using the Flower Power Slimline Die and then cut it down to fit onto my blended panel. I also die a Nested Stitched Heart out.

I used glue and 3D foam squares to adhere my card to my card base.

Using the Catherine Pooler Color Wheel

March 9, 2022March 1, 2022 amandafittererLeave a comment

Today’s the Day! The Celebrate Spring Release is available to purchase! Do you want all the goodies or what?! I know I do!

Today I am showcasing the TOTALLY FABULOUS BUNDLE!

I’ve made this card using the Just Plain Fabulous Stamp Set.

To choose my colors, I’m using the FREE Color Wheel download! I’ve ended up using Party Dress, It’s a Girl, Limoncello, Something Borrow, and Suede Shoes.

I stamped my sentiment from the Just Plain Fabulous Stamp Set on my white panel and stamped a smaller sentiment on black cardstock with Versamark Watermark ink and then added white embossing powder. After heat embossing with my heat tool, I trimmed my sentiment down and used a 3D foam strip to prop it up on in the center.

Hope Your Day is a Real Treat!

March 3, 2022March 3, 2022 amandafittererLeave a comment

I am SOOOO freakin’ excited to be part of the Time for Tea Designs design team!!

Are these Enjoy the Little Things and Cafe Critters stamp sets just the CUTEST!? Eek! They look so good mix and matched, too!

For this card, I blended a background using Catherine Pooler’s Minted, In the Park, and Deck the Halls inks. I spritzed it with water and also flicked a bit of white paint on it.

While waiting for that to dry, I cut a panel of white cardstock for the ground. I used the Tiled Wall Stencil and Twilight ink to create little pavestones.

Next, I stamped my images from the Enjoy the Little Things and Cafe Critters stamp sets, colored them with Copic markers, and then cut them out using the coordinating dies.

Finally, I assembled my card using liquid glue and 3D foam squares.

Heffy Doodle and Time for Tea Collaboration Blog Hop

February 26, 2022February 26, 2022 amandafitterer20 Comments

Welcome to the Heffy Doodle and Time for Tea Collaboration Blog Hop!
Design Team members from both companies are sharing inspiration using products from both companies!

I’m so excited to share this card I made with you! I absolutely adore both of these companies’ products! They work SO WELL together! Can you guess which products are from which company? Read on to see!

To create my super vibrant background, I am blending Sixteen Candles, Pixie Dust and Grape Crush through the Time for Tea Tiled Wall Stencil. Once that’s done, I am going to very gently go over the entire background with a blending brush that has leftover Sixteen Candles ink on it.

To create the forefront of my scene, I am using the leaves from the Heffy Doodle Tree-mendous Peekaboo Tree Die and blending Melon Ice and Lime Rickey onto my cutout. For the dirt hill, I am using the Heffy Doodle Slimline Scenery Dies and blending Sand Castle and Over Coffee ink onto it. I am then splattering some white acrylic paint mixed with water using a small paintbrush. I’ve also used the Silver Linings Border Dies to create some clouds for the top portion of my scene and have left them white.

Now I’m ready to stamp my little cuties! I am grabbing the Heffy Doodle Hello Squeakheart Stamp Set and the Time for Tea Cafe Critters Stamp Set. I’m coloring them with my Copic markers using purples, greens, and yellows.

I’ve cut out the word “ENJOY” using the Heffy Doodle Stitched Alphabetters Dies and used Melon Ice and Lime Rickey to color them. Once I’ve cut my stamped images out using the coordinating dies, I’m ready to start assembling my card! I’m using Heffy Doodle’s Deep Foam Tape and Glubert Glue. I’m also creating one last sentiment by stamping the word “SQUEAKHEART” from the Hello Squeakheart stamp set on black cardstock with Versamark watermark ink. Then, I’m applying white embossing powder to it and cutting the sentiment into a ribbon using my scissors.

And, voila! Don’t those little cuties look so cute?! 🙂

That’s it for me on this Hop! I hope you enjoyed my card and all the love I put into it!

GIVEAWAY INFO: To be entered to win the giveaway, all you need to do is comment at each stop along the Blog Hop!
Time for Tea will be giving away £25 and Heffy Doodle will be giving away £25 to their respective stores! Be sure to comment before 11:59 PM EST on Mar 2nd to be entered to win!

For the inner panel, I blended Bellini, Orange Twist, and Flame.

Next, I stamped my images from the Just Roll With It stamp set and colored them with Copic markers. Then, I die cut them with the coordinating dies. I stamped a sentiment on a piece of white cardstock and then rounded the corners.

Today, I’m making a card with my leftover piece from yesterday’s card. If you missed my post yesterday, you can see it here. I’m using the Just Roll With It Collection for this release!

I ran a slimline card front through my die cutting machine with the Plant Stand Slimline Die. I placed the die cut card front on top of another slimline card front. Then, I blended Limoncello, Glitz, Party Dress, Pucker Up and Flirty Fuschia inks onto both card fronts. This gives me 2 different card fronts to use!

Next, I stamped my kitty from the Just Roll With It stamp set and then colored her with Copic markers. I also stamped my sentiments on black cardstock nd then used white embossing powder on them. I used the Nested Stitched Heart Dies and then trimmed off one edge of the heart and propped it up with foam squares.

Catherine Pooler Birthday Instahop!

January 16, 2022December 22, 2021 amandafittererLeave a comment

🎉SURPRISE BIRTHDAY HOP!!🎉

Happy Birthday, Catherine!!

A group of us DT members have gotten together to throw a surprise birthday hop for Catherine on Instagram! Come join in to wish Catherine a Happy Birthday!

Here is the card I made for the Hop! What better way to celebrate your birthday than with a skiing bunny friend?!

To create this card, I am starting with the Scallops and Dots Dies. To create my bunny slope, I’m using just part of one of the Nested Stitched Heart Dies. (Sneaky, huh?! But it makes a great ski slope!)

For my background, I am blending It’s a Girl and Party Dress.

Next, I’m going to grab my circle Acrylic Stamping Block and some Versamark Watermark ink. After placing 3 snowflake stamps from the Bunny Slopes stamp set on my block, I can stamp the snowflakes all around the background. Using the stamping block makes the process much faster than using my MISTI and constantly moving my stamps around!

Once all my snowflakes are stamped, I can sprinkle some Halo WOW! Embossing Powder onto my stamped snowflakes and then melt the embossing powder with my heat tool.

For my snow slope, I’m covering the entire thing with Versamark Watermark ink and then applying my embossing powder and heating it with my heat tool. I just LOVE the sparkly Halo WOW! Embossing Powder!!

I’ve stamped my images from the Bunny Slopes Stamp Set on Premium White Cardstock and now I’m ready to color them with Copic markers! This cardstock is so creamy and smooth and works amazingly with alcohol markers!

Once I’ve cut my images out with the coordinating dies, I’m ready to assemble my card using 3D foam squares and liquid glue!

Well hey there, crafty friends! I sure hope you had a wonderful Christmas! Did you get any crafty goodies?! I hope so!!

Today, I’m sharing a Baby Shower card! I love interactive cards and the Slider Pop-up Dies make it so easy to make one quickly!

To create this card, I have blended some gorgeous Catherine Pooler blues on my cutouts from the Slider Pop-up Dies . Next, I’m spritzing the ink with water.

I’ve stamped my images from the Beary Big Heart and Chimply the Best stamp sets. Now, I’m ready to start coloring the images with Copic markers!

To create my leaves, I am using both the Amazonian Leaves and Forest Leaves Dies. To color the leaves, I used Limoncello and Tiara inks. I am gluing my leaves, sequins, and monkey on using Glubert Glue.

Using the Classic Sentiments stamp set and the Chimply the Best stamp set, I’ve created my sentiment on a piece of white cardstock.

Voila! So easy and fun! Plus, it will make a great Baby Shower card that is sure to be gushed over!

Thank you so much for stopping by my blog today! I hope you’ve enjoyed this post as much as I’ve enjoyed sharing it with you!! Xx, Amanda
