Lovable Llama Cards and Video Tutorial with Julia and Franci

Hey crafty friends! It’s Julia here with a fun interactive birthday card! I used the adorable Lovable Llama stamp set for this one! 

To create my scene I also used the Spring Scenes, Floating By and Inside Greetings Birthday stamp sets as well as the Sliding Window and Fluffy Clouds dies. 

I really wanted to add a sentiment that read "Llama tell you" so I used Kinsley Alphabet stamps for my custom greeting!

I had so much fun with the sliding window mechanism! It's amazing for adding an additional message or a little hidden scene to your cards! If you would like to see how this card came together, you can watch the video below - or on my YouTube channel, Craft Room Adventures.

Inks used: background: Twisted Citron and Mowed Lawn Distress Ink as well as Tumbled Glass and Salty Ocean Distress Oxide. Copic Markers used: YG11, YG13, YG17, BG99; Y11, Y13, Y15, Y17; R20, R22; R24; R27; R29, R39; RV21, RV23, RV25, RV29; B21, B23, B26, B28; BG11, BG13, BG15, BG18; V000, V01, V04, V05, V09; R21; E30, E31, E33, E35, E37, E39; 0.

Hi there! Franci here with you, showcasing the new Lovable Llama set, the cutest ever!! So I had to make another rocking card here because I think they are so much fun and they are so easy to make with the new Stitched Circle Large Dies and the Scalloped Circle ones! 

First of all I die cut all the panels: the largest one out of this colorful patterned paper from the Spring Sunburst 6x6 paper set and the smallest out of white cardstock. I later inked it up in the center with some Spiced Marmalade Distress ink Oxide.

Then I started working on my images, I combined lots of elements from these different sets: Lovable Llama + coordinated dies, Balloon Rides + coordinated dies, Banner Basics + coordinated dies. I stamped them onto white cardstock, colored them with Copics and cut them out. I also added my sentiment from the Inside Greetings Birthday set.

I glued down all my images to the scalloped circle, then folded in half my stitched one and adhered my decorated panel just to one half of my colorful one. As you can see I also added some elements with acetate strips to give my design more interest and the card fit a standard size envelope perfectly so it's super easy to mail! Finally I added some details with a white gel pen and some clear sequins.

I hope you like it and thank you so much for stopping by today!

Country Scenes Cards with Kavya and Isha

Hi folks, Kavya here. I am back on the blog with a new project. I love creating scenes.. so naturally, I fell in love with Country Scenes from the new release as it makes it super easy to create a scene for your critter cards. Just find a suitable landscape and add a few critters! 

I used this to along with a previously released set to create this gorgeous card for a friend with whom I love to go camping. I haven’t had the chance to go with her this year but it’s definitely on my bucket list after the pandemic. I also found the perfect sentiment for the occasion from the new Inside Greetings Birthday stamps set. Although, this set is intended for birthdays, some of the sentiments can be used all year long! 

I first started off by ink blending the top half of the card using navy blue and teal dye inks. I then added blue and white paint splatters to create a super quick night sky! Later, I stamped the mountain scene from the Country Scenes stamp set and some critters from the Critter Campout stamp set and colored them using alcohol markers and colored pencils. As always, I added some highlights using a white gel pen. 

Then, I used the Slimline Nature Borders set (A MUST HAVE IMO! Almost 90% of my cards use this set in some form and is perfect for both slimline and A2 sized cards) to die cut ‘land’ and some ‘grass’ using cream and green cardstock. I used the matching dye inks to ink blend the edges and added some splatters here as well. Finally, I put together the scene as shown below and added a sentiment from the Inside Greetings Birthday stamps set that is perfect for my friend! 

I hope you liked this card! Be sure to check back for more inspiration tomorrow :)

Hello everyone! Isha here with a slimline card featuring the Country Scenes stamp set. I really love this set as it's perfect to create beautiful scenes. 

I started by stamping two rows of trees scene images and colored them using Copic markers and die-cut using the coordinating dies. I also stamped the mountain scene image, colored it and die-cut. I only wanted to use the mountains behind my trees. 

Take a white panel and sponge some pinks and yellow distress inks to create the sky. Adhere the mountains and then both the layers of tree scenes. Now, I die-cut 3 slopes using the Slimline Nature Borders from white cardstock. I sponged distress inks in the shades of greens on two of them and adhered to the panel ( apply glue to the bottom edge only so we can insert our images to create the scene later)

Sponge the last slope using salty ocean distress ink to create a small pond. Stamp sentiment from the Garden Fairy stamp set. Adhere to the bottom of the panel. Stamp the mushroom house from the Garden Fairy stamp set, color and die-cut using the coordinating dies. 

Stamp gnomes, mushrooms and the caterpillar from the Home Sweet Gnome stamp set, color and die-cut using the coordinating dies. The sun from the Balloon Rides stamp set and die-cut using the dies. The log is from the Seasonal Trees stamp, color and die-cut using the coordinating dies. Now I die-cut two clouds using the Fluffy Clouds die, sponge some pink and blue ink.

Once the images are ready, adhere them as per the card photo. Apply spectrum noir clear shimmer pen to the sun, trees, and gnome hats. Adhere the panel to a white cardbase.

Thanks for dropping by! Have a nice day.

Slimline Pennant Die Focused Cards with Mayra and Ashley

Hello everyone. Mayra here with you today. I am so grateful to be here. I have a sweet card to share with you. I used the Slimline Pennant dies along with the Enchanted and Make A Wish stamp sets. 

I started by die-cutting the large stitched rectangle using the Frilly Frames Quatrefoil die set from a piece of patterned paper from the Dots & Stripes Pastel paper pack. Next, I die-cut the largest of the pennants from the Slimline Pennant dies set. I die-cut it from a soft pink colored cardstock. I then die-cut the scalloped circle, stitched circle, and the grassy hills using the Scalloped Circle Mat 1, Stitched Circle Small, and the Slimline Nature Borders die sets. 

Next, I added color to the stitched circle using Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide ink. For the grassy hills, I used Mowed Lawn and Twisted Citron. I then used Copic markers to color all of the images. I used C5, W5, W3, and C0. For the brown areas, I used E41, E81, E84, E87, E47, and E49. For the soft blue, I used B32, B01, and B000. For the soft pink, R20, R30, R00, and R000.

I hope you enjoy the card I created to share with you today. Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by. I hope you each have a wonderful and blessed day.

Hello friends! It's Ashley with a cute mini slimline card featuring the Slimline Pennants dies! The finished card is 3.25" x 6" - big enough to give me a little extra space to work, but small enough to fit in a standard envelope. Perfect!

I started by cutting the medium-sized Slimline Pennant die from white cardstock. I then used the stitching-only clouds from the Fluffy Clouds dies to add some interest to the background before blending a bit of Pinkfresh Studio Ocean Breeze ink to the edges. I grabbed another piece of white cardstock and cut a cloudy border using the Slimline Nature Borders. I trimmed the cloudy border by cutting it with the bottom of my Slimline Pennant die so that it would fit perfectly on the piece. The pennant was too long for a mini slimline, so I trimmed it down to 5.75" across, then used the Slimline Basic Borders to add stitching back to that edge.

To add a bit more background interest, I cut a few solitary clouds from white cardstock with the Fluffy Clouds dies and scattered them around. I stamped images from Plane Awesome onto white cardstock in Lawn Fawn Jet Black ink and colored with Copics. I just love that cute monkey and his goggles! I cut them out with the matching dies and added them to my card with foam tape. 

To finish my sentiment, I stamped the phrase onto black cardstock in VersaMark ink and embossed with white. I added the sentiment strip to the card with foam tape. For the card base, I used the blue ray paper from the Classic Sunburst pack. I finished with a scattering of iridescent crystals.

Thank you so much for stopping by! Have a wonderful day!
