Holiday Card Series 2022 Day 5: Stencils and A Background Stamp

November 21, 2022

Hey everyone. Welcome to day 5 of the Holiday Card Series for 2022 and we are using stencils and a background stamp to make our cards today. I love, love, love how these cards came out.

By using a word stencil, a background stamp and a stencil with open areas, these cards came out amazing. I also made sure to start with colored cardstock to make ink blending a breeze.

Holiday Card Series 2022 – Day 4 Faux Dip Dye

November 14, 2022

Hello everyone. Welcome to Day 4 of the Holiday Card Series. We are working on faux dip dye today. I have watched Kristina Werner do this one her holiday cards and I love it. So I took the brave step and decided to give it a try for the holiday card series.

Holiday Card Series 2022 Faux Dip Dye

This process for this technique is really simple. By adjusting the amount of water and watercolor paint you can make a beautiful gradient card. Also to deepen up a color,  add black a little at a time to get the color you are looking for.

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.

Simple Holiday Card

November 30, 2021

Hey everyone. Hope you are having a great day. I’m up on the Hero Arts blog with this simple holiday card. It’s really easy to mass produce especially during this holiday season with so much busyness going on.

 

You could easier change up the color palette every few cards to make a variety pack of cards.

 

 

Make sure to swing by the Hero Arts blog to get the instructions on how this card came together.  Have a wonderful day everyone.

Holiday Card Series 2021 – Day 8 Waffle Flower

November 15, 2021

(Affiliate links used at no cost to you)

Hey everyone. Welcome back to the Holiday Card Series 2021. We are on day 8 and the products today are from Waffle Flower. Today I felt like a little ink blending and a cover plate die would be a great match up. Using distress oxide inks with the Waffle Flower Poinsettia Cover Die help me make a stunning card.

 

This color palette is number 5 in the Ink Combos Guide! Love the non-traditional colors this creates for a holiday card.

 

 

 

My second card I used the same color palette however I switched up the stamp set. This time I used the Snowflake Background Stencil from Waffle Flower. Look how gorgeous those snowflakes are. The sentiments used on both cards are from the Waffle Flower Wonderful Christmas stamp set and coordinating dies.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

By adding coordinating sequins I found in my stash, this card finished off beautifully.

 

 

You can watch the tutorial here or over on my Youtube channel. All product used are listed below.

 

 

Thanks for stopping by today. I’ll see you back here for day 9 of the holiday card series.

Afternoon friends. I'm back with a card layering u Afternoon friends. I'm back with a card layering up my @heroarts bold prints. I love the look for texture on cards and by using two great bold prints, I created this beauty. A good tip to layering your bold prints, keep it simple! If your bold prints are too busy, layering them will be difficult. 

For my card I used the Hero Arts Ginkgo Leaves and Positive Script bold prints. The script bold print is small enough that it doesn't overpower the leaves. And you don't have to be perfect with the script either as you are just giving the look for words not something that needs to be readable. Perfect match in cardmaking heaven.

You can find all the products I used on the blog today including this beautiful sentiment you see on my card. (it's one that speaks to my heart). Link is in the bio. Have a wonderful day everyone.

Who doesn't love an adorable mushroom stamp set? T Who doesn't love an adorable mushroom stamp set? The Hero Arts Hello Fungi stamp set is perfect for stepping into your fall card. With the beautiful line art of this stamp set, you can easily color this with your Copic markers or do what I did, and color it with your color pencils.
