Easy Ink Blending Valentine Card: My Favorite Things

January 15, 2024

Hey everyone. Keeping in the Valentine spirit, we are doing easy ink blending Valentine card using My Favorite Tings products. I haven’t used my distress oxides inks in a while so I thought today would be the day I did just that.

Using colors of pinks and purples inspired by my Color Cube, I got to working on a beautiful background. The Full Of Hearts Dieanamic from My Favorite Things was a great option for the ink blended piece. It provided me with a great over for a card and tons of little hearts I can use on additional cards.

The adorable new stamp set from My Favorite Things called Lovely Lions was the perfect addition to this beautiful background.

You can watch the tutorial here or over on my Youtube channel. Affiliate links have been used at no cost to you! I hope I’ve inspired you to keep working on your Valentine’s Day cards. I’ll be back with another card shortly. Have a great day everyone and I’ll see you again!

Holiday Card Series 2023 – Day 2

December 1, 2023

Welcome to the Holiday Card Series 2023 Day 2. Let’s get into another color palette.  Today’s color palette is a non traditional color palette. It’s on the cooler side of the spectrum and I absolutely love it.

Not only are we doing a non traditional color palette, we are also doing non traditional stamp sets as well. Pulling out those stamps that may not fit into your holiday card design, really allows you to stretch those stamps to use year around.

The first card is featuring the Hero Arts Better Together stamp set. This stamp set is a collaboration set between Hero Arts, Pocono Pam and myself.

 

Holiday Card Series 2023 Day 2

Now the next card features the Gina K Designs Friendly Silhouettes stamp set.

Holiday Card Series 2023 Day 2

And our last card is featuring the Pink Fresh Studio Eucalyptus Fantasy stamp set.

Holiday Card Series 2023 Day 2

All of these cards are using the exact came colors but look truly different by switching up how I use the color on the card. You can watch the tutorial here or over on my Youtube channel mzdanajoy.

A list of the products I used are below. You can also check out my previous card series by clicking the link In the comment section of the tutorial. Have a great day and I’ll see you back here soon.

The colors are from@concordand9th! The background is nectar and the inks are Popp, Buttercup, Watermelon and Parsley

My card is featuring the new Rose Branch die cut and the new Under Water stencils. There are four stencils to create this beautiful background. Using a white gel pen I did some wonky (I mean seriously wonky 😂) faux stitching on the card as well.  I love the cool colors for green on this card.
