Hot Foiling and Resist Stenciling – Elegant Fall Card

Hello and Welcome!!!

Watch video tutorial here!!!

Let’s create an elegant Fall card with stenciling, embossing and foiling! This card will have lots and lots of beautiful layers which will add so much interest to our card!

We will die cut a Hero Arts Infinity Heart Die and then we will stencil it with the Echo Park Designer Stencil from the Fall Fever Collection and this one is called Leaf Pile.

To begin the stenciling, we will use a variety of Distress Oxide Inks in some pretty Fall colors. And then….for a bit of added interest and dimension we will lay the stencil back down over the colored leaves and ink it up with some clear embossing ink and then add clear embossing powder. Now we can add some ink around the edges of the heart and the embossed area will resist the ink. Next we can spatter the entire heart and add some metallic pearls!

For one of the background layers and the sentiment, we will add some gold foiling using the Spellbinders Glimmer Hot Foil Machine and some Glimmer Plates. I’ll give you some tips and tricks for doing some easy foiling!

The card and layers are from the Welcome Fall – Carta Bella Coordinating Solids Paper Pack. Next we can quickly layer up the card on a top folding card base from some Kraft cardstock.

This card was created as a Congratulations card but could certainly be easily adapted to become a Thanksgiving or Fall card!

Harvest Easel Card w/ No-Line Coloring

Hello and Welcome!!!

Watch video tutorial here!!!

Today we will be using two brand new stamp sets from the Ai Watercolor Series called the Harvest Set (5598) and Ai Sentiments Set (5600). These sets are part of the 2022 Fall Release that includes several wonderful Fall and Halloween stamp sets, paper packs and some add-on sets for the Journal Template Series.

I thought it would be fun to have our Harvest Set image look as though it were a painting that the little Ai 2022 Freebie (Dog) was creating. By the way, this little Freebie is available with a $30 purchase and there are several cute little critters to choose from…while supplies last! But this one was perfect because his little paw was reaching out…perfect for holding a paint brush. This little brush is from the Ai Craft Bag and Die Set (5502).

I decided to do some no-line coloring on the “painting” so that it would look a bit more realistic. It is super easy and fun…and I will give you some tips and tricks for this no-line coloring technique. To do this technique we will be using the Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens in the following colors: Blender, Pale Orange, Blossom Pink, Bright Yellow, Orange, Mustard, Deep Vermilion, Aquamarine Blue, Smoky Teal, Beige, Mid Brown, Lt Gray, Olive Green, Mid Green.

To set the scene, we will be using some beautiful patterned papers from the Ai Harvest Journal Paper Pack, which is a double-sided (6″x6″) paper pack with loads of gorgeous fall colors! We can die cut these using the Ai Rectangle A2 Double-Stitched Die Set (5063).

To create the little easel we will be using the Lawn Fawn Canvas and Easel Die Set. This set will give us both the easel and the little stool for our cute puppy to stand on … and we will be die cutting this from the brand new Tim Holtz Distress Gray Two-Tone Woodgrain Cardstock.

As a finishing touch, we can add some pretty Metallic Pearls in a matte gold color!

Fall Harvest Party Favors

Hello and Welcome!!!

Watch video tutorial here!!!

You all probably know by now how much I love to make party favors…and today is no different! I enjoy giving these little gifts as much as people seem to love receiving them. For today’s project, I thought we could create some fun Fall party favors that could be used for a dinner party favor or a little gift for a teacher or a friend. For our focal image we will be using a brand new stamp set – Ai Harvest Pumpkin Set (5595) – from the Watercolor Journals Collection. This set is designed to be mixed and matched with the other sets from the collection. There are so many beautiful Fall images including pumpkins, a little truck and tractor, a ladder, mini mice and squirrels, a wheelbarrow and so much more! This brand new collections is also being sold as a bundle pack which includes some dies, sentiments and papers in the collection!

All of the coloring today will be done using the Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens in the following colors: Blender, Bright Yellow, Orange, Beige, Mid Green, Smoky Olive, Green Gray, Lt Gray.

We will use a pretty scalloped frame die from the Ai Journal Template Set (5543) to create the base of our topper. We will also be using some gingham paper from the new Ai Harvest Journal Paper Pack 6″x6″ (5606).

For the sentiment let’s grab the “Happy Thanksgiving” sentiment from the Ai Harvest Sentiments (5600) Set and create a banner. This set has several wonderful sentiments that will suit any Fall style card!

After we assemble the layers and attach this topper to our goodie bags we can add a few pretty champagne colored gems for a bit of sparkle!

Now….for the best part….let’s add some candy! If you didn’t want to add the candy for some reason…you could just use this topper as a place setting and add your guests names to the front or back to personalized them!

Art Impressions – New Release – Front Porch Harvest Door Card!!!

Hello and Welcome!!!

Watch video tutorial here!!!

Today I will be showing you another brand new stamp and die set from the Ai Front Porch Series! This set is the Ai Front Porch Harvest Set (5492) and it includes the coordinating dies. This beautiful fall set is an add-on set to the original Ai Front Porch Set (5512)….keep in mind that you will need this set in order to create todays card!

Let’s go ahead and stamp and die cut and color all of our little images using the Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens in the following colors: Blender, Sugared Almond Pink, Blossom Pink, Deep Vermillion, Yellow, Orange, Smoky Yellow, Ever Green, Mustard, Beige, Sand, Aquamarine Blue, Smoky Teal, Mid Brown, Lt Gray, and Gray.

To set the scene we will create a beautiful cloudy sky using the Tim Holtz Distress Oxide Ink in the new Uncharted Mariner! Next we can create a frame for our card by die cutting several frames using the Ai Rectangle A2 Double Stitched Dies (5063) and gluing them all together. This will give us a nice thick frame for our scene! We can add a bit of ink around the edges to give it an aged look using the Tim Holtz Distress Oxide Ink in Ground Espresso. Next, we can create a grassy border using some Tim Holtz Distress Oxide Ink in Peeled Paint.

Now we can stamp and color the front door. We will color this with some browns and grays to give it a rustic look and color the front door itself in a Smoky Teal color to give it a pop of color and tie it in with our other images!

Let’s also add a few birds from the brand new Ai Birds and Bugs Set (5561). This will add some interest and dimension to the sky!

Now for the fun part….putting all of these cute little pieces on our front porch!!!

Tim Holtz 3D Oak Leaf Card w/ Distress Sparkle Glitter

Hello!

In todays card and video we will be using the beautiful Tim Holtz 3D Impresslits Oak Leaf Die Set! This product not only die cuts the leaves but also embosses them at the same time…which I just think is amazing!

We will also be using the Tim Holtz Kraft-Stock in the Warm and Cool colors. These papers have a beautiful color on one side and a kraft color on the back side. What I love about these papers is that we can sand off some of the color on one side in order to reveal the kraft color underneath. This will create some fun texture to the leaves!

For a bit of sparkle, we will be using the new Tim Holtz Sparkle Set which includes both the Tinsel Glitter and the Garland Glitter. These glitters are so gorgeous and I will give you a closer look at these in the video.

To set the scene for our leaves we will spatter the background using some metallic watercolors. This will add a beautiful sparkle to our background!

We will then add a dimensional sentiment using the Tim Holtz Sizzix Thinlits Shadow Script #2 and then for an additional sentiment we will use the Tim Holtz Metallic Quotation Stickers.
