November 29, 2023

Hey everyone. Welcome to the Holiday Card Series 2023 – Day 1! I’m super excited to share this series with you again this year. We switched things up and this year we are focusing on color versus technique.

I’ll share with you beautiful color palette that will level up your holiday cards. Tips and tricks to get them looking seamlessly created. Let’s take a quick look at the cards.

As you will see, each card is using the same color palette however they look slightly different

 

In the tutorial today, I’ll share with you where I grabbed this color palette and why I choose it. Hint the Color Cubes by Sarah Renea Clark help me a lot.

Simon Says Stamp Season Of Wonder

October 5, 2023

Welcome to the blog everyone. Today I am participating in the Simon Stamp Season Of  Wonder release. I’m super excited to share this card with you today. Scene cards are really difficult for me to create, however with a little masking I was successful.

I started off my stamping the little girl with her stack of presents on the left side of the card. Next, I stamped the bundle of presents to the right of my panel. Now it was time to mask off these areas. Pulling out my masking sheets, I stamped and fussy cut out the girl and the bundle of presents. Using the masks, I covered up these two areas and then stamped my tree. Once the masking paper was removed, it was time to color.

The Copic markers are I used today are the following:

E11, E 13, E15, E39, E50
R46, R59, R81, R83, RV34
BG13, BG49
YG23, YG67, YG99
Y26, Y28
W4, W6, W7

Now that coloring was complete, I hand drew in the floor for my images and colored with Copic markers. For a little bit of texture, I pulled out a light beige Copic marker to make faux wallpaper. To top off my tree I stamped the star, colored it in with my Copic markers and fussy cut it. I use double sided foam to adhere it to the top of the tree. And lastly, I stand the large Christmas sentiment at the top of the card, and also stamped a sub sentiment which I fussy cut out.

I hope you enjoy this card as much as I do! Here’s to starting off those holiday cards for this year. It’s time now to fill up your cart with products from the Simon Says Stamp Season of Wonder release.Thanks for stopping by today and I’ll see you back here soon.

Holiday Card Series 2022 Day 3: Metallic Watercolors

November 11, 2022

Nothing makes my heart happier than metallic watercolors on black cardstock. Iuile watercolors are now one of my favorite watercolors. They are so shimmery and look magnificent applied to cards or in this case tags. These beautiful stars are from the Simon Says Stamp Peace On Earth stamp set.

 

Holiday Card Series 2022 Day 3 Metallic Watercolor Tags

A simple sentiment that is not oversized works wonderfully on the tags. By keeping the sentiment on black cardstock, it matching with the tag and does not compete with it.

Okay on to the tutorial. You can watch it here or over on my Youtube channel.

Here is the bonus card I mentioned in the video. This card was made using the same stamp set. For this card I did no-line watercoloring on the angel and I’m in love with the way it came out.

Holiday Card Series Day 2: Infinity Snowflakes

November 9, 2022

Hello everyone. Welcome to day 2 of the Holiday Card Series 2022 and let’s use Infinity Snowflakes to make our card. Today we are making a layered snowflake card. Infinity dies are an easy way to make quick cards. Just switch out the colors of cardstock on each layered piece and you have endless color scheme.

Making a card with just one theme (meaning I’m not adding anything to the card besides snowflakes) keeps a card looking harmonious. There is nothing to distract your eye from the snowflakes.

Holiday Card Series 2022 Day 2

By adding the Hero Arts Glitter Paste, I’m able to add texture to to card without a real design that competes with my snowflakes.

Keeping my color palette in a more neutral palette with just a pop of red helps the card brighten up just a bit.

 

Today’s tutorial will show you how to create this sparkly card with little happiness in your heart. You can watch the tutorial here on the blog or over on my Youtube channel. A supply list has been added below for your shopping ease.

You can find all videos for this years series by click here. Thanks for joining me today. I’ll see you back here for day 3 soon. Have a wonderful day everyone.
