Save The Crafty Youtuber Video Hop

March 25, 2020

Hey everyone. I know I have been missing in action but I’m back for the Save The Crafty Youtuber Video Hop. There are so many amazing people who share their creativeness on Youtube. I’m so thrilled to participate again this year in the Save The Crafty YouTuber Video hop. Let’s get started.

For my card today I used products from Waffle Flower and Heffy Doodle. This was a super easy card to pull together and can be changed up to so many color combinations. I kept mine to very spring like colors since it’s pretty warm here in Florida.

Now let me give you a heads up. I had to record this video THREE times. My computer decided not to play nicely with me and since the Apple stores are closed during this time, I had to record it multiple times to get it to export correctly. After five plus hours on the phone with Apple, I switched to creating the video on my phone and I was successful with an upload. (A lot of wine was involved to keep my nerves down). 😂

Easy Distress Rainbow Cards

June 11, 2019

Hey peeps. I’m back today with a new tutorial using rainbows are my inspiration. So it’s Easy Distress Rainbow Cards up on the blog. I’m been feeling like I’m losing my mojo and I needed a way to get excited about crafting again. What better way than to pull out some rainbow influenced colors and make a few cards.

For my cards today I used distress oxide inks, rainbow foil and a stencil. There are so many ways to be inspired when making a rainbow cards and there are so many variations of styles and techniques. I’m going to share three with you in the tutorial that I hope inspire you to pull out your colorful paper and get busy. Here’s a few picks of the card before we get started. The first cards I just pulled out my distress oxide inks and got busy. I love how simple and colorful this card came out.

For my next card I used the distress stripe toner sheets from Therm-O-Web and the rainbow shattered glass foil. Oh this foil is soooo yummy and beautiful. I have all the products I used listed below.

And for my last card, I pulled out a stencil and used the transfer gel and rainbow foil to create a fun distressed circle background.

Okay on to the tutorial I know you have been waiting for. Please let me a comment on which card you liked the best and what inspires you to get creative. You can watch it here or over at my Youtube channel mzdanajoy. I’ve used affiliate links for your convenience at no cost to you.

March 28, 2019

Hey peeps. I’m back today on the Pink and Main blog sharing the Celebrate stamp set and coordinating dies. There is nothing better than making a card and finding the perfect die to go with it.

This Pink and Main celebrate stamp set and die has such a variety of ways to make a statement on your cards. You can also pair it with the Birthday stamp set available over in the Pink and Main shop.

Working My Green With A St. Patrick’s Day Deco Foil Birthday Card

March 9, 2019

Hey peeps. I’m working my green today making a St. Patrick’s Day Deco Foil card. My birthday is on St. Patrick’s day and it’s a special on this year because my twin and I are turning 50! Yes we made it to this fabulous age and I couldn’t be happier. You see when I turned 40 I was diagnosed with colon cancer. It was the scariest time of my life and for my family. We were so fortunate that the cancer was easily removed and I am almost 10 years cancer free.

Anyway back to the St. Patrick’s Day card for my sister. I started with a beautiful blend of distress oxide inks for my background. Next I added some splattered gold splatter to the background as well. Wanting to pull in some beautiful gold foil on my card, so I grabbed my deco foil foam adhesive sheets and foil sheets and got busy.

My completed card looked great with all the gold and green. Perfect for St. Patrick’s Day. You can see more of the deco foil in action on this video I made during my holiday card series.
