Passionate Penguins Tags & Card with Marine and Anja

Hello crafty friends, Marine here, I'm so happy to be back on the blog with this trio of wintery valentine tags showcasing the adorable Passionate Penguins stamp set.

As always I started by stamping the images using an alcohol marker friendly black ink. Besides the penguins, I also stamped a few trees from Holiday Express and umbrellas from Beach Babies, and I colored everything using my alcohol markers.

I cut three Scalloped Square Tags, and did the same process on each one: I masked the four scalloped edges to keep them white, covered the bottom with a hill stencil, and used spun sugar, worn lipstick and festive berries distress inks to create the sky. I also added a little bit of texture: white splatters to make falling snow, sparkling splatters for frosty accents, and festive berries distress ink mixed water splatters to add some contrast.

To give those tags a nice back, I cut three more tags out of pattern papers from the Rainbow Bright and Very Merry paper packs, I attached a red tag at the back of each white tag, and added ribbon and twine at the top to decorate them.

Next I cut six hearts using a die from the Cupcake Shape die set to decorate the top of each tag. I also cut three banners out of red cardstock using a die from the Stitched Rectangle die set, and white heat embossed a sentiment from Passionate Penguins on each one. And then I attached all the elements on the tags: the banners at the bottom, the hearts on the ribbon, and the images using foam squares and glue dots.

And as always I finished those tags by adding highlights and details on the images, the sky and hearts using a white gel pen. And that's it! I hope that you like those lovely frosty Valentine tags. Thanks for stopping by, and don't forget to check the video (click on the image above) if you need more details. See you next week!

Hello everyone, Anja here and today I'm featuring the adorable Passionate Penguins Stamps – they are definitely one of my favorites! I just love their sweet little faces! I created a love themed CAS card in berry pink tones.

I started off with a square card base measuring 4.25" x 4.25". Next, I die cut two of the Stitched Heart 2 Dies from pink cardstocks and layered them on top of each other.

The penguins and tea cup were stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored with Copic Markers. I used the coordinating dies to cut them out. It's so cute how they are sitting inside the cup.

I stamped the sentiment in VersaMark Ink onto a black cardstock strip and heat embossed it with white embossing powder. Finally, I adhered the images and sentiment strip with foam tape.

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

Christmas Critters Tags, Card, & Video Tutorial with Franci and Julia

Happy Wednesday everyone! It's Franci here with some adorable Christmas gift tags. Aww the new Christmas Critters set is soo cute! 

First of all I stamped all my images, colored them with Copics and then die cut them out with their coordinated dies. I also die cut 2 stitched banners out of white cardstock using the Stitched Rectangle dies set and stamped my sentiments onto them. 

I die cut 2 tags out of white cardstock and another 2 out of patterned paper from the All Is Bright 6x6 paper pad using the Scalloped Tag Circle dies and glued them back to back.

Then I sponged some Distress inks to the patterned paper sides to add interest/ dimension and glued all my elements with foam adhesive. Finally I added some ribbon at the top and a couple of Pure White Jewels + lots of details with my white gel pen.

I love these festive tags so much, hope you like them too and thanks a lot for stopping by!

Hello friends! It’s Julia here and this time I have a fun Christmas scene card to share with you!

First, I stamped the images from Christmas Critters, Holiday Express, and Santa Clause Lane onto Bristol Smooth cardstock and I colored them with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers.

Then, I ink blended the background with Distress Oxides and added lots of white splatters for a snowy look. I added a hill with the Slimline Nature Borders and added a little bit of ink blending to the edge as well. 

Then, it was finally time to build my scene with lots of presents, critters, and more! The little "reindeer-mouse" just cracks me up!! For a final touch, I added a few Lacy Snowflakes to the background.

If you want to see how the card came together, you can check out the video above. I had so much fun creating this fun scene and I really hope you like it! Holiday hugs.

Snow One Like You Tags & Card with Rachel Alvarado

Hello crafty friends! It's Rachel here with a couple of fun winter-themed projects to share with you! First, I have a pair of shaker tags that feature the adorable Snow One Like You Stamp Set. This set is currently free with a purchase of $40 or more through Monday (see full details below).

To create these tags, I first used the Scalloped Circle Tag Dies combined with a basic circle die to die cut 5 tag fames and one patterned paper tag frame from the All is Bright Paper Pad. I glued the regular 5 tag frame pieces together to create dimension to fit my embellishment (glitter) and adhered the entire frame to my base piece. For my base piece, I had blended some Peacock Feather for my background and added a snowy hill using both the Slimline Nature Border Dies as well as the same basic circle die that I had used for my frame.

I added a piece of clear acetate that I cut with the large Scalloped Circle Tag Die and then adhered my final frame of patterned paper. I finished off my tags with some string and ribbon. (All of my images were stamped onto a piece of Neenah Classic Crest Solar White 110lb Card Stock with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored with Copic Markers.)

For my second project, I created a shaker card using the new Holiday Express Stamp Set combined with the Stitched Arch Dies. I made my card one layer so that my "snow" could move freely inside the card.

Copic Colors Used: Reds: R14, R27, R46, R89; Black: C3, C5, C7, Greens: YG01, YG06, YG17; White: 0, C00, C1, C3

Chloe Number Die Focused Card and Tags with Julia and Franci

Hello crafty friends! It’s Julia here with this quick and easy holiday card!

Often we just don't have enough time to make holiday cards, so quick and easy cards are always welcome. This is made especially easy with the amazing Very Merry paper pad! It comes with two amazing holiday background designs as well as lots of fun patterned papers and it makes quick work of holiday backgrounds!

I stamped my little polar bear from Bear Hugs and his balloon onto bristol smooth paper and colored him in with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers. I added the patterned paper onto an A2-sized card base. I die-cut the Chloe Number dies out of red and black cardstock to spell "2022". Then, I added glossy accents to the red numbers and sprinkled iridescent glitter on them. I set them aside to dry completely.

I heat embossed the sentiment in white onto black cardstock. To create my custom sentiment, I used the stamp sets Bear Hugs for the "wishing you a merry Christmas, Beach Buddies for the "&", Words of Gratitude for the "a", and finally Inside Greetings Birthday for the word "happy. I added it over the moon in the background. I layered my, now dry, red numbers with the black numbers and adhered them below the sentiment strip.

Finally, I just added my sweet little polar bear, and this card was already done!! I had lots of fun with this holiday / new years card and I hope you like it! Have an amazing week!
