Double Sided Shaped Valentine’s Day Card featuring Honey Bee Stamps

Hello friends. For this card, I decided to create a shaped card with the Honey Bee Stamps Big Pickup Cab, Big Pickup Tailgate, and Loads of Love 6×6 Stamp Sets. This card was a little time-consuming because of all the coloring but I think worth it in the end! I love how this turned out!!!

For this card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 7 x 10 and scored at 5″ to create an A7 card base. I folded the card base and then die cut the shaped truck card by aligning the truck die up against the fold line but overhanging it a little. This will create the shape card. You can do this with any shape die.

Next, I stamped both the front and back of the truck and envelope images from the Big Pickup Cab, Big Pickup Tailgate, and Loads of Love 6×6 Stamp Sets onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored them with Copic markers. I used R17, R29, R59 & R69 for the truck; R83, R85 & RV10 for the truck bed; C0, C1, C3, C5 & C7 for the bumper and mirrors; C7 & C9 for the tires; BG000, BG10 & 0 (blender) for the windows; Y0000 & Y15 for the lights; and C1, 0, & RV10 for the envelopes. I die cut everything with the coordinating dies for each stamp set.

I stamped a sentiment from the Big Pickup Cab onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I die cut one part of the sentiment with the coordinating die and hand cut the second. I also stamped a sentiment on the license plate from the Big Pickup Tailgate.

I added some white highlights to both sides with a white gel pen.

I left the inside of the card blank.

Penguin Winter Scene Card featuring New and Old Lawn Fawn Products

Hello friends. This cute scene card was created using some older Lawn Fawn dies with their new holiday collection. I used the Lawn Fawn Spooky Forest Backdrop die which came out for Halloween as the forest on this card. I combined it with the new Peppy Penguin and String of Lights Backdrop dies to create this cute scene.

For this card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create an A2 card base. Then die cut the backdrop from Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with the Lawn Fawn Spooky Forest Backdrop and the hillsides from Simon Says Stamp WHITE GLITTER 8-1/2 x 11″ Cardstock using the Lawn Fawn Stitched Hillside Borders. I also cut a piece of Lawn Fawn Candy Cane Lane 6×6 Inch Petite Paper Pack to 4-1/4 x 5-1/2″.

I die cut the strings of lights from silver cardstock from the Tim Holtz Metallic Idea-ology 8 x 8 Metallic Kraft Stock Paper and the bulbs from Tim Holtz Metallic Idea-ology 8 x 8 Metallic Jewels Kraft Stock Paper and Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ for the lightbulb backs. I cut off the individual strings and added them separately. I saved the outside silver border to add to the card.

I die cut the little penguin from Simon Says Stamp 100lb Black Cardstock, Simon Says Stamp Cardstock 100lb Slate Gray, and Stampin’ Up! Pumpkin Pie 8-1/2″ X 11″ Cardstock. I popped up the spooky forest and one layer of the hillsides using 3M Foam Tape for added dimension.

For the penguin’s hat, I stamped the hat from the Lawn Fawn HATS OFF TO YOU Stamps onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored it with Copic markers. I used R17 and R29, C5, C7, and C9.

I stamped the sentiment from Lawn Fawn Henry’s Build-A-Sentiment: Winter Stamps
onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Catherine Pooler Designs Rockin’ Red Ink.

I left the inside of the card blank.

Shop Your Stash: Mini Slimline Coffee-Themed Birthday Card feat. Catherine Pooler Designs

Hello friends. Here’s a quick and easy coffee-themed birthday card using older stamp sets from my stash. I love the modern graphic style of this coffee set!

For this card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 7โ€ x 6โ€ and scored at 3-1/2″. I also cut a piece to 3-1/4 x 5-3/4″, and another piece to 1 x 5-3/4″.

For the background piece, I stamped the smaller images from the Catherine Pooler Designs Perfect Blend Stampset (discontinued) with Catherine Pooler Sand Castle Ink and then I used the direct-to-paper technique with S’mores Ink to color the strip.

I stamped the espresso maker from Catherine Pooler Designs Perfect Blend Stampset (discontinued) onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Rockin’ Red, Pebble, and Oh Boy! inks. I popped them up using Foam Tape.

I stamped the sentiment from the Catherine Pooler Designs Perfect Blend Stampset (discontinued) and Sugar Pea Designs Espresso Yourself Stampset onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with S’mores Ink and Cranberry Fizz and fussy cut it out.

I left the inside of the card blank and added a S’mores-colored espresso maker.
