Pandtastic

Hi and thanks so much for stopping by! Today I'm sharing a fun and happy card made with Heffy Doodle's Pandtastic stamp set and coordinating dies!

I've been crafting for as along as I can remember, but cardmaking became my obsession about 12 years ago! I can't resist a rainbow of color, crisp die cuts and sweet images to play with. Crafting is my sweet escape!

My card starts with a rainbow Distress Ink panel in Ripe Persimmon, Carved Pumpkin, Mustard Seed, Twisted Citron, and Salty Ocean. Distress Inks are much brighter than their Oxide Version making them perfect for this cheery card!

I think these cute pandas look like they love crafting just about as much as I do! I inked them with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored them with Copic markers.

I loved arranging these little guys! All the fun accessories in the set like the paint tubes and cans, brushes and easel just bring this scene to life!

I couldn't resist making a coordinating tag. I cut a panel of white cardstock, rounded the edges and punched a hole for the tag base. A little ink blending, a stamped sentiment and these adorable pandas and this one comes together quick!

  

I appreciate this opportunity to share my love of crafting with you ! I hope you're inspired to break out the ink and make some adorable cards!

Fluffy Puffy Unicorns

Are you ready for some rainbow cuteness? This is one sweet post that is sure to satisfy! I'm playing with the adorable Heffy Doodle Fluffy Puffy Unicorns.

I've been crafting for as along as I can remember, but cardmaking became my obsession about 12 years ago! I can't resist a rainbow of color, crisp die cuts and sweet images to play with. Crafting is my sweet escape!

My card starts with a Distress Oxide background in Shaded Lilac, Tumbled Glass, Cracked Pistachio, Squeezed Lemonade, Dried Marigold and Kitsch Flamingo. The creamy colors are rich and creamy making them perfect for blending.

When I'm making I like to arrange images on a piece of plastic the size of my card front. I can move things around as much as I like before I commit and adhere them in place. I tried fitting all the unicorns on my card but they just wouldn't fit.

Some of the clouds are adhered flat to the card base while others (like the unicorns) are adhered with adhesive foam tape. This adds dimension to the design and gives the appearance of the unicorns "floating" and "flying".

The images are colored with Copic Markers but any markers will do. I left much of the image white. I thought a coordinating tag would be nice for a little gift bag to accompany the card.

If you're a fan of Heffy Doodle I hope you'll stop by on September 27 when I'll be sharing another design made with their fun products.

The 12 Kits of Occasions Crafty Friends Are the Best & GIVEAWAY

Hello friends! It's the last day of the month, and you know what that means! It's time for The 12 Kits of Occasions. And guess what? I'm the hostess with the mostest this month! I'm calling this kit "Crafty Friends Are the Best!" because I thought it would be fun to celebrate the friendships we've made through our love of crafting.

In the spirit of friendship I made a handful of extra kits and invited some friends to play along. I hope you'll give them a warm welcome!
