Happy Tuesday, friends! Today I'm sharing a slimline Christmas card featuring mixing and matching multiple images from several of the September 2022 Mama Elephant Release stamp sets for this fun holiday design! For the background I layered Distress Oxide inking, stenciling, and Distress Grit Paste stenciling. A good background helps make the darling stamps and die cuts pop! The darling Polaroid Tag Set frames were lightly distressed with Tim Holtz Mica Stain (which are my favorite!). Let's get started!

Currently I am doing a Friday morning Lives at 9 am CT. Replays will be on my YouTube Channel.
I have a few requests to edit the Lives. Currently I am not going to edit them. This is for a couple of reasons:
1) Lives are new to me and we are going to stick with this format for a bit. I personally love Lives. I haven't watched an edited Live so I reserve the right to reconsider in the future if I think it's something I can fit in my schedule.
2) I don't want to spend the precious hours I have for creating new content, editing a Live. I will be bringing the exact same amount of traditional content and videos to my channel. Lives/replays are in addition to that content.
If you want to join us for some real-time crafty fun each week I would love to "see" you there. Please make sure to SUBSCRIBE to my YouTube Channel and click the notification bell so that YouTube alerts you when I'm going live. I am trying to reach 100,000 subscribers so if you haven't subscribed yet I would SO appreciate it! I am grateful for my community on all the platforms!

Welcome to the June 2022 edition of my Simon Says Stamp monthly series, Making the Cut! This series featuring all things die cutting. This month I am sharing a butterfly slimline foiling card with matching stenciled envelope. Detail stenciling, text stamping, inking, and Distress Grit Paste through a stencil add the perfect textured backdrop for the beautiful foiled butterflies.

The stencil was cleaned off, replaced over the design and a bit of Translucent Grit Paste was applied through the stencil. The Grit Paste goes on a bit opaque but the Translucent Grit Paste will dry clear. I love the texture this adds to the design.
A Simon Says Stamp envelope was stenciled to match the card.

Happy Friday, friends! This morning I went Live over on YouTube where I created this tea-rrific tree house slimline scene card featuring brand new products from the Lawn Fawn Summer Release. The slimline scene gives you more real estate to create a bigger scene. The tree house dies were all die cut from white cardstock and colored in with Copic Markers to match the look and feel of the adorable tea time critters!

Today I'm sharing two brand new strawberry scene cards created with new stamps, dies, and patterned papers from the Spring 2022 Release. Both cards feature strawberries. 🍓 One card showcases the new Reveal Wheel Dies (one of my favorite interactive sets ever) and one is an extended slimline scene where I transformed a large strawberry die into a strawberry house for mice!

Hello, friends! Today I'm popping in here with a couple of slimline cards featuring my very favorite go-to background technique when I want an amazing background that works for almost any card! I borrowed these adorable Reverse Confetti Love Bugs from my friend, Amy Kolling, during a weekend crafty get together with friends! I love how these cards turned out.
