Many Thanks Card for Thanksgiving - New Release from Pretty Pink Posh!

Tuesday, September 10, 2024

The new release from Pretty Pink Posh is here! There are some great new products for the Autumn and Thanksgiving season and it was hard to narrow down what to use for today's blog hop card. I thought it would be fun to use some non-traditional colors for the fall - softer pinks, orange and yellow! The pop of black really makes the softer colors shine.

You can follow how I made my card in my video today; the new products I'm using are the Fall Harvest stamp set, coordinating dies, Many Thanks Shadow dies, and Layered Autumn Harvest stencils. I hope you like my card featuring new products - let me know down below what your favorite product is from the new release! But keep reading how you can enter to win a Pretty Pink Posh gift card!

I Treasure You Dollar Bill Mini Slimline Card with The Sassy Club

Sunday, September 8, 2024

Happy Sassy Sunday! This week I'm using adorable duck fandom characters to create a mini slimline along with awesome money dies. I started with doing all my stamping and coloring with OLO markers, then fussy cut out all of my images. I added some highlights with a white gel pen and then embossed a sentiment in gold. Then I die cut my dollar bill and a bunch of gold coins. I stamped the dollar signs in the corners and added Distress Inks to give the dollar bill and coins some dimension.

I layered the dollar together and placed my uncle so he's coming from inside to outside the center of the dollar. I then layered the money images with the nephew triplets around the card. I used my largest PopscileSticks slimline dies to cut a piece of neutral patterned paper from my stash and adhered it to a 3.5 x 6.5" card base. I then tucked in the gold coin dies where they would show the most around my dollar. I cut some in half since most would be hidden to get more coins around the card.

Finally I adhered the dollar to the center of the card and I just love how it turned out! I'm glad I added the extra money around the kids, I think it really made the card look full and exciting. I hope you like my Sassy Sunday card this week!

Fairytale Cards with Spellbinders for Fandom Friday

Friday, September 6, 2024

I am excited to share that I am starting a new YouTube series called Fandom Friday! I currently have Christmas on the 25th, Halloween on the Last Day and now these weekly videos to hopefully bring you some inspiration to use your stash in a pop culture way. Of course you'll see my favorite fandom companies like The Sassy Club, PopsicleSticks, Kindred Stamps, and more... But I'm planning to add non fandom companies in the mix to share ideas to make them into a pop culture reference! 

For my first video in the series, we're traveling to Cinderella's Castle in her pumpkin carriage and Tinker Bell speeding her fairy dust across a card! I was gifted these die sets and press plates from Spellbinders to create with and I hope you like my inspiration to create these two fairytale cards. Let me know what fandom cards you'd like to see in the future!

Boo! Mini Slimline Halloween Cards with Scrapbook.com

Thursday, September 5, 2024

There is a new Livestream Deal from Scrapbook.com today featuring wonderful nesting dies perfect for Halloween! Coffins, ghosts and pumpkins - and all in different sizes. Perfect for layering, making shaker cards or really just projects of any size. I used them along with other Halloween themed dies from SBC and the new Willow Lane 6x8 paper pad.

My mini slimline cards are inspired from Call Me Crafty Al's September 2024 SheetLoad of Cards sketch. I added my own touch by stenciling on the inside of the cards and adjusted my patterned paper cuts to fit without borders all the way around. My images are all die cuts and I layered them onto the cards with 1mm foam adhesive.

Let me know in the comments if you snag this deal and which nested die set you are most excited about!

Stitched Sunflower Thanks Card with Spellbinders September '24 Clubs

Tuesday, September 3, 2024

I love crafting with friends - even if it's virtually! On Sunday, it was the first of the month, so I went live on YouTube with two of my crafty besties (LV Handcrafted and Sassy's LLC) and we used the September 2024 Clubs. This month I used the Stitching Dies, Stencil, and Embossing Folder to create a thank you card!

You can catch the replay of our live down below as well as the list of supplies I used to create this card. I think the Stitching Dies and Stencils might be my favorite of all of the September Clubs, but you'll have to watch my next video where I use more of the Clubs to see if I end up changing my mind! Let me know down below which Clubs you are most excited for this month.

Winter Wreath Card - New from Sizzix and Tim Holtz!

Monday, September 2, 2024

A new vault release from Sizzix and Tim Holtz is here! We're getting in the holiday spirit with using the Sizzix Thinlits to create a white and gold holiday wreath with some beautiful patterned paper, stamps and embellishments from Scrapbook.com. A HUGE thank you to Scrapbook.com for sending me these new dies to play with and create!

You can follow along in my video down below for how I created this soft, Christmas card - I created a wreath by combining the Vault Festive Wreath, Holiday Classic, Winter Wishes, and Seasonal Sketch dies onto one card. I die cut the images from white and holographic gold cardstock from Scrapbook.com. I wanted to keep the background colorful, so I reached for the new Snow Days paper pad and picked a couple Pops of Color that matched the background colors.

I hope you'll check out the new release from Sizzix at Scrapbook.com - I have the links down below! Let me know your favorite from the Vault, too.

Ooh La La Shaped Card with The Sassy Club

Sunday, September 1, 2024

It's insane that we're in September! I cannot believe that we're heading into the Autumn months and best time of year with all of the holidays. Something that I'd like to start with this new month is Sassy Sunday! I have lots of amazing products from The Sassy Club and making fandom cards is my favorite thing to do... So my hope is to bring you some Fandom Fun on Sundays with The Sassy Club!

For the first Sassy Sunday, I'm featuring the Ooh La La stamp set with these two iconic cartoon characters. I stamped and colored them in with OLO markers, then fussy cut them out. I embossed the sentiment in white on black cardstock and fussy cut around it, too. I used some oval dies in my stash to cut vellum to adhere my characters and my sentiment is popped up with 1mm foam adhesive.

I used a larger oval die to cut my card base to make a shaped card, as well as a white piece of cardstock. Using blue and purple inks, I stamped the Eiffel Tower and hearts in a random pattern. Next I made my "XO" die cuts and you can follow along in my short video down below (or a little less fast over on Instagram) of how I added Distress Oxides, splatter and adhered to them to the background.

The vellum oval was popped up with 2mm foam adhesive to the center of the background and this was added to my shaped card base. I hope you like my card and that you're excited to see more Sassy Sundays! My card is also going to be submitted for this past Friday's episode of Craft Roulette.
