Home Sweet Home Fairy House!

Hello and Welcome!!!

Watch video tutorial here!!!

Today we will be creating a fun fairy’s card using some letter dies to create our sentiment! Using your letter dies is an easy way to personalize your cards and create your own custom sentiments. You can also mix and match your lettering fonts for even more fun and interest!

Let’s begin by stamping and coloring the adorable brand-new Ai Fairy Houses Set (5790). This set includes two cute little fairy houses. We will be using just one of them today but either one would work well on this card! We also need to stamp, color, and die cut the little fairies which are from the Ai Fairy Cubbies Set (5345).

All of the coloring will be done using the Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens in the following colors: Blender, Blue Green, Turquoise Mint, Lt Pink, Sugared Almond Pink, Pink Flamingo, Pale Rose, Flesh Colour, Yellow, Beige, Shadow Pink, Haze Blue, Aquamarine Blue, Lilac, Lt Gray, May Green, Mocha Brown, Brown, Warm Gray 6, Blossom Pink, Pale Orange, Mid Brown, Gray.

Next we can die cut the image using the brand-new Ai Decorative Journal Page Set 1 (5768). This set includes some beautiful page dies as well as the label die we will be using today and many other wonderful journal dies!

Now we can create three panels for our card using the Ai Easter Paper Pack (5742) and the Ai Valentine Paper Pack (5741). We will use some pretty checkered papers in pastel colors and layer these papers onto some coordinating solid papers.

For the lettering on the card we will be using the Ai Journal Letter Set (5562). Let’s grab the letters we need to create the “Home Sweet Home” sentiments. I will give you a few tips and tricks for lining up your letters!

Let’s go ahead and layer the card with all of our elements and add some iridescent stars for a bit of sparkle!

For a finishing touch we will add a simple bow from the Ai Fairy Cubbies Set (5345)!

Clean & Simple Vellum Overlay Cards using the Ai Scenic Foundations (PART 3 of 3)

Hello and Welcome!!!

Watch video tutorial here!!!

Today is Part 3 of our Scenic Foundations series and we will be creating a set of note cards by stenciling a pretty sunburst background with a vellum overlay by using the remaining four sets from the Summer of 2023 release (SF Wooden Cabin, SF Stone Bridge, SF Cottage Creek, SF Picket Fence)! These are clean and simple cards that are very easy to mass produce!

In Part 1, we used the SF Beach Cabin Set (5749) to create a beautiful background using some masking tape and the Tim Holtz Distress Oxide Inks. This is a simple and easy way to set the scene for our Scenic Foundations stamps.

Masking An Easy Background using the Ai Scenic Foundations (PART 1 OF 3)

In Part 2, we will be creating a mixed media tag card using the SF Village Set (5746) and a water coloring technique using the Tim Holtz Mini Ink Pads.

Mixed Media Tag Card using the Ai Scenic Foundations (PART 2 OF 3)

We will be using all of the Scenic Foundations in the three part series…so for a 15% savings you may be interested in the entire collection bundle deal listed and linked here:

5796 – 6pc Scenic Foundations Bundle – https://shrsl.com/45ia8

To set the scene for today’s cards we will be using the Lawn Fawn Sunray Background Stencil on each of the cards using some the Hero Arts Reactive Ink Pads in Fruit Punch, Lemon Drops, and Creamsicle and the Hero Arts Blending Brushes.

Next we can die cut a rectangular frame for each of the cards using the Ai Nested Rectangle Dies (5724). We will place one smaller rectangle inside the larger one to create the frames. We will use the larger rectangle die to cut the vellum paper that we will then place behind each of the frames!

Let’s go ahead and stamp each of our four Scenic Foundations stamps onto the vellum rectangles using the Staz-on Jet Black Ink Pad.

Now we can attach the vellum to the frames and pop these up using some foam strips. Now when you look through the vellum you will see a softer version of the sunray background and around the edges you will see the more vibrant pattern. I just love how this looks!

Using the Ai Birthday Sentiments Set (5735) or the Ai Friend Sentiments Set (5734) we can add a simple sentiment to each of the note cards using the Ai Journal Template Dies (5543) banner die.

As a finishing touch let’s add some Ombre’ Glitter Drops from the Pinkfresh Studio Sparkle and Shine collection!

If you are giving these as a gift you can add some envelopes, maybe a pretty pen, and some postage stamps to complete the gift!

DIY Halloween Coffin w/ Paper Crafting Supplies

Hello and Welcome!!!

Watch video tutorial here!!!

Today we will be creating a super fun Halloween Decor item using several stamp sets from the Art Impressions Collection! This little spooky Halloween coffin would be a great party favor or home decor item. It would also be a fun gift for a co-worker….it will sit nicely on a desk!

Let’s start off by separating this little box…and to do this we will just take off all of the hardware. Then we can paint one half with the Tim Holtz Black Soot acrylic paint. While that is drying we can go ahead and do our stamping and coloring.

For our coloring today we will use the Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens in the following colors: Blender, Sugared Almond Pink, Blossom Pink, Lt Pink, Yellow, Bright Yellow, Scarlet Red, Dark Yellow, Smoky Yellow, Beige, Red Grape, Deep Red Grape, Mid Brown, Lt Gray, Gray, Dk Gray.

We can quickly die cut all of our images using the coordinating dies! Let’s cut an extra set of each of the dies in some black 100lb cardstock in order to thicken up these images and give them a little more substance.

Now we can add some woodgrain cardstock all around the edges of this box and on the inside of the box using the Tim Holtz Distress Black Two Tone Woodgrain Cardstock. This paper is fantastic and can be used for so many different projects!

I’ll give you a few tricks and tips for lining the box with this woodgrain paper. Now we can add some crinkle grass in a spooky purple color at the bottom of the box….this will give us a place for our little cat to sit!

Now we can quickly add glue and foam tape on all of our images and attach them to the box…and then add a few pretty purple opalescent sequins to give the inside of the box a bit of sparkle!!!

Hello!  In todays video I will be showing you how to create a simple scene card using the Happy Village stamp and die set from Lawn Fawn.  Also from Lawn Fawn, I will be using the Bayou Backdrop frame and some stamps from the Ahoy, Matey stamp and die set.  I will also do some simple coloring using Tombow waterbased markers.
