Feeling Cheesy Shaker Card with Trinity Stamps

Sunday, March 16, 2025

Hello fellow card makers! I'm excited to share my latest handmade card, featuring some wonderful products from Trinity Stamps. I began with a piece of ombre pattern paper, transitioning from orange to white, and then used the Modern Embossed Window Panel #1 die from Trinity Stamps to create a window for my shaker card. To add texture, I stenciled the smallest Lots of Dots stencil, also from Trinity Stamps, using Guppy Simon Hurley ink.

Next, I stamped images from the Extra Cheese stamp set, colored them with OLO markers, and used the coordinating dies to cut them out. For the sentiment, I die-cut a strip from the white edge of the ombre paper using the Emergency Card Essentials Die Set #1 and stamped a message from the Brie-lliant Sentiments stamp set, again from Trinity Stamps. I then created the shaker element using acetate, filling it with shredded cheddar sprinkles clay and orange sparkle spots flat confetti, both from Trinity Stamps. For a detailed demonstration of this card-making process, please watch my latest YouTube short. You'll see each step and hopefully find some inspiration for your own projects using Trinity Stamps products.

There's No One Like You Floral Card with Scrapbook.com

Thursday, March 13, 2025

Alright, fellow card crafters, get ready to dive into a burst of floral delight with this stunning creation featuring all things Scrapbook.com! I'm absolutely buzzing to share this card that's just overflowing with spring vibes. We're starting with an A2 card base, and the magic begins by adhering a gorgeous floral pattern paper from the Bouquet A2 paper pad – instant beauty! Next, we're taking the White Mixed Media cardstock from the 6x8 pad and giving it a dreamy, blended background using Distress Oxides in Bundled Sage, Scattered Straw, Tattered Rose, and Worn Lipstick. Once that's blended to perfection, run it through your die-cutting machine with the Stitched Stripes A2 decorative die plate for incredible texture. Add an A2 piece of vellum behind the die-cut panel, and adhere it all to your card base. Trust me, the layered effect is simply breathtaking!

Now, let's bring in the floral accents! We're using the Joyful decorative die set from Scrapbook.com to cut out those beautiful blooms, and don't forget the sentiment, "No One Like You." Die-cut the shadow of the sentiment from white cardstock and the letters and floral images from the Bouquet patterned paper. Layer the letters onto the shadow, and arrange your flowers on the card base. Pop up the sentiment with foam adhesive for dimension, and for that final touch of contrast, add a few Black Gloss Pops of Color. The subtle black accents in the pattern paper will tie everything together beautifully. This card is a testament to the versatility and quality of Scrapbook.com's products!

Best Wishes Floral Card with Speckletone Cardstock

Tuesday, March 11, 2025

Alright, fellow card crafters, get ready to be inspired! Today, we're diving into a project that's all about texture, shine, and the incredible quality of Cardstock Warehouse papers. I started by trimming down a panel of their Speckletone Neutrals cardstock in a kraft color to an A2 size, and let me tell you, the texture of this cardstock is just divine! I then ran it through my die-cutting machine with the Spellbinders Arches and Dots embossing folder, giving it a beautiful, tactile background. To add a splash of whimsy, I splattered some Starry Colors pigment watercolors, setting it aside to dry. The real magic began when I hot foiled the "Best Wishes" plate from Pinkfresh Studio with stunning copper glimmer hot foil roll. The shimmer was absolutely breathtaking! I then used the coordinating Best Wishes layering stencils to color in the floral images with Pinkfresh Studio's Green Gables and Napa Valley ink cubes, creating vibrant and eye-catching blooms.

To complete this masterpiece, I used the Best Wishes dies to cut out the foiled and stenciled images, adding dimension to the design. I also stamped the "Best Wishes" sentiment onto a lighter shade of Speckletone Neutrals cardstock from Cardstock Warehouse, embossing it with copper powder for a cohesive look. After die-cutting the sentiment, I popped up the floral die-cuts and the sentiment onto the textured background panel. Finally, I adhered the entire panel to an A2 card base, also crafted from Cardstock Warehouse's sturdy cardstock. To add a touch of sparkle, I sprinkled some gold mix colored gems around the card. The richness and variety of Cardstock Warehouse papers truly elevated this project, making every element shine. Trust me, you'll feel the difference in quality and texture with every touch!

Alright, fellow card crafters! Get ready to dive into a burst of floral delight with today's project, all thanks to the incredible goodies from Scrapbook.com! I've whipped up a stunning card using their Bouquet and Candy A2 paper pads, and let me tell you, the results are simply breathtaking. We're starting with a base of gorgeous patterned paper from the Bouquet pad, a perfect foundation for our garden scene. Then, we're layering up! I trimmed another piece of another patterned paper and a piece of vellum, creating a dreamy, translucent window. The magic truly happens with the Greenhouse Decorative Die Set, where I die-cut the greenhouse itself from Lawn Fawn paper bag cardstock, and then filled it with vibrant flowers, greenery, and adorable pots from the Bouquet and Candy pads. Don't forget the charming mug from the Beary Christmas Die Set, adding a touch of whimsy for Craft Roulette!

Now for the assembly! I carefully pieced together my greenhouse and adhered it to the vellum, which I then mounted onto the trimmed patterned paper. To give it some dimension, I popped the whole panel onto the card base with foam adhesive.

Cheesiest Birthday Card for Craft Roulette

Wednesday, March 5, 2025

This week’s Craft Roulette challenge had me stepping out of my comfort zone in the most delightful way—creating an A7 sized card! I took this as the perfect excuse to finally crack open some long-neglected supplies in my stash. The A Little Latte Designer Series Paper from Stampin’ Up! made the perfect rustic background, and I gave it a decorative edge with the largest Admit One A7 Layer die from Popsiclesticks.

To build the card, I made my own A7-sized card base and adhered the background panel. Then, I reached for Avery Elle's Char-Cute-Rie stamp set (which had been sitting patiently in my collection) and stamped both of its beautiful wooden boards onto Desert Storm cardstock using Crunchy Leaf Lawn Fawn ink—perfect for that warm, natural tone. Coloring with my OLO markers brought the boards to life, and I gave them a crisp, finished look by stamping over them again with Pinecone VersaFine Clair ink before cutting them out with the coordinating dies.

Of course, a charcuterie board isn’t complete without delicious treats! I used the dies to cut out an assortment of cheese, crackers, and other goodies from white cardstock and colored them with my OLO markers, blending soft yellows, warm browns, and olive greens to make them pop. Once they were all ready, I carefully arranged and adhered them onto the wooden boards, making sure to create that perfect balance of savory and sweet.

To finish off the card, I added some stamped hearts and a punny sentiment in Warm Breeze VersaFine Clair ink—because what’s a charcuterie card without a little cheesy humor? I love how this card turned out, and I’m so glad I finally put these products to use. If you’ve been hoarding some new (but unopened) supplies, let this be your sign to break them out and get crafting! Let me know in the comments—what’s the last new-to-you product you finally used?

Confetti Cake Shaker Card with Pretty Pink Posh - New Release!

Tuesday, March 4, 2025

Are you ready to create a festive and fun handmade birthday card? I had an absolute blast playing with some of the newest Pretty Pink Posh products, and I can't wait to share my latest card with you! This card features the Pierced Stars Plate Die, Layered Garland Stencil, and Cake Slice Shaker Dies, along with a beautifully foiled sentiment that brings everything together. The mix of Peacock Feathers and Twisted Citron Distress Oxide inks, plus a pop of shimmer from Prom Queen Simon Hurley Lunar Paste, creates a lively and dimensional background that’s perfect for any birthday celebration. If you love interactive elements, you’re in for a treat because the Cake Slice Shaker Die adds an extra layer of excitement with fun Party Time shaker beads!

To make this card, I started by die-cutting a piece of white cardstock using the Pierced Stars Plate Die to create a subtle yet elegant texture. Next, I used the Layered Garland Stencil with Peacock Feathers and Twisted Citron Distress Oxide inks, adding Prom Queen Lunar Paste for a touch of shimmer. While that dried, I hot foiled the Happy Birthday Script sentiment using bright pink glimmer hot foil on pink cardstock and die-cut it with the coordinating shadow die. For the cake, I cut the Cake Slice Shaker Die from vanilla, brown, and white cardstock. I added shading with alcohol markers to create a pink-and-white striped candle and a glowing yellow flame. Using partial die-cutting, I created a chocolate frosting top, then assembled the shaker with acetate and Party Time shaker beads for a fun, interactive element. Once everything was ready, I adhered the stenciled background to an A2 card base, placed the shaker cake in the center, and attached the foiled sentiment on top!
