Hi Friends!! kel here today 🙂 Can you believe it’s almost Halloween? I went to the mall with my kids the other day (something we rarely do) and there was Halloween stuff EVERYWHERE!! So I’m here to share a super different Halloween card… different for me anyway! I usually stick with the cute and fun but was…
Today we’re making a Thanksgiving themed card based around a color palette involving orange, brown, and gold card stocks. I started out using my Kuretaki Gansai Tambi pallete to mix up some yellowish, orange, and red colors. I knew I wanted this watercolor background I was creating to have a lot of color variation and…
According to the calendar, the official first day of fall will be here on Friday, September 22nd, so I thought it would be fun to plunge right in to Halloween. Today’s project is easy to make and so fun to give! How about some spooky-cute treat bag toppers to give to all the little ghosts…
It’s September and time for sunflowers and spiced pumpkin. I love this time of year with all the colors. This card is inspired by the darker colored sunflowers. CutCardstock had the perfect colors. I chose Pop Tone in Hot Fudge (4.24″ x 5.5″ and 3.25″ x 3.75) and Tangy Orange (3 3/8″ x 3 7/8″ and 4.25″ x…
I love working with just plain white cardstock, don’t you? It’s like a blank canvas – there are so many techniques you can use to make projects uniquely your own. One of my favorite techniques is applying ink through a stencil, which is what I did to make the background for today’s anniversary card. I…
Hi Friends!! kel here today 🙂 Hope everyone is having a wonderful summer (or winter!). We’re in our last week of summer break so spending as much time together as a family as possible before fixing our routine back to a school-oriented one!I made a quick and easy card today using a paper punch and some super…
Good morning crafty friends. There’s nothing better than a hot cup of coffee other than a hot cup of coffee shared with a friend. Today’s card is all about both! Here’s a snapshot of the products I used today: I started by creating an A2 sized top folding card base using 110lb Neenah Classic Crest…
Have you noticed shiny bright silver showing up in lots of weddings this season? It’s one of the “in” colors, and fortunately for us all, CutCardStock has plenty of silver cardstock available. My card today is silver Stardreams Metallic, and trust me, it is D E L I C I O U S. Creating a…
Flowers that don’t wilt are the best kind to give to a friend. Sometimes you just need at card to say I am thinking of you. I started with my favorite Pop-Tone Cardstock. I used Hot Fudge for the flower pot, a label and the flower centers, Sno Cone for the background, Gumdrop Green for…
Do you have a stash of cards already made? If so, well, good job you! You could probably have guessed that I (generally) do NOT. Occasionally, however, I have a short fit of card making, usually a simple design with something at hand. To share with you today I have several stash busting, super simple, Stuff-Off-My-Desk cards featuring…
What I love about the Pop Tones card stock is how each color has the power to stand on its own and the card stock lends itself to being able to withstand lots of techniques. But I’ve found it’s especially great for ink blending. So for this project, I thought I might try for a…
Have you ever just wanted to play with a new product to see what happens? That’s what happened for today’s post. I wanted to play with Pop Tones card stock(that’s on sale right now at CutCardStock) and Oxide inks. I’ve seen people using this ink on dark coloured card stock and I wanted to try…
