Holiday Card Series 2019 Day 13 – Guest Designer Karen Boyce

November 29, 2019

Hi everyone! It’s Karen from Cards Stamp’s and Ink and I am excited to be here with you and I’m taking over Dana’s blog and Youtube channel to share in the fun of Dana’s Got Joy Creations Holiday Series for 2019. Make sure you are following this series for amazing holiday inspiration, giveaways, discount codes and don’t forget to leave a comment below to qualify for all of the giveaways. There will also be tutorials and cards shared by Dana as well and she will have a few surprises to share with you!

I’m a card maker located in Toronto, Ontario Canada!  Trying new products and colouring makes my heart content!  I also enjoy traveling so you will see my many adventures to crafty places!  Make sure to try and keep up! LOL

Today I used the Oversized Merry die from Waffle Flower! I pulled out some Yupo paper and my Deception Alcohol ink Pearls from Ranger. First I start with wetting the Yupo with the blending solution first and then added my alcohol ink pearls. I used an air blower to help move the ink and solution around. Once the ink was where I wanted it I left it to dry.  I decided to make a second panel since I was having so much fun! Then I used the Waffle Flower oversized Merry to cut out the middle of the paper. I popped out the die cut and glued it using Gina K Designs Connect glue to my card base made from 110 pound Neenah cardstock. I made sure to save the inner pieces of the R’s and Y so that I could use them to make a second card from the same piece of Yupo.  I added a few gems from Pretty Pink Posh and voila! 4 Christmas cards! Let me know if you decide to try this!

The GJC Holiday Card Series runs from November 17 to December 14.  Each day Dana will have a Guest Designer right here on the blog sharing their holiday card ideas just like I did here today. Hopefully you will find something to inspire you to create holiday cards for your family and friends this year. Follow along on her YouTube Channel and make sure you leave comments on each designer’s posts or videos for chances to win.

It's that time! Sneak peeks of the @heroarts My Mo It's that time! Sneak peeks of the @heroarts My Monthly Hero has begun. Today is day one and I'm sharing my inspiration with loads of color.

This months kit is sooo pretty. It's all about layering stencils and you know I LOVE a great layering stencil. For me, I could use one layer of this stencil kit or use them all. It's very buildable and easy to line up.

Make sure to set those alarms for Monday August 1st 1:00 PM EST to grab your kit. Remember, once the kit sells out it's game over.

Hey everyone. It's time for @ginakdesigns July rel Hey everyone. It's time for @ginakdesigns July release. This evening I have a card using the new Just Breathe stamp set. I decided to do no-line watercolorink with this image and pair it with the Gina K. Designs Watercolor Floral 6x6 paper pad.

The sentiment on the card is from the new Big Birthday stamp set. This set has 14 different birthday sentiments, which makes it perfect for all your birthday cards.

You can find the new release over at Gina K. Designs.com. Oh and make sure to keep an eye out for inspiration from the guests and designers for Gina.

Morning everyone. I'm up on the @heroarts blog tod Morning everyone. I'm up on the @heroarts blog today sharing a tutorial using the new Hero Arts Tiling Textures stamp set with the Gold Hero Wax. This wax goes on like butter and once dried it's wonderful to stamp on. 

One of the tiles in the stamp set reminds me of honeycombs, so of course I needed to pull out cute bees from the Hero Arts Beelieve stamp set. It's a match made in heaven.

Head on over to the Hero Arts blog for more photos and a link to the tutorial. I also have a detail write up sharing how this card was created as well. Have a great day everyone.

Happy Friday everyone. I hope you're having a grea Happy Friday everyone. I hope you're having a great evening. Have you seen the  @simonsaysstamp Dream Big release? Oh it really makes my heart happy.

I had the chance to color up these adorable unicorns from the Born the Sparkle stamp set. I mean these unicorns are just too darn cute. My medium of choice were my Copics makers. I decided this card need some dimension, I stamped the unicorns and clouds once on my panel card stock and again on a separate piece of card stock so I could color them. Next I fussy cut each one out to pop them up on my card. 

This card really does make my heart happy. Unicorns for the win! Have a wonderful weekend everyone.
