How To Make a Happy Birthday Card

Greetings friends and fellow crafters, LeeAnn here with a Shaker Birthday card I made.
To make this card I used a layering stamp set to stamp out Happy Birthday using a rainbow scheme using LDRS inks. I then used the matching dies to cut the two words out. The inside of the white layer is cut out using MFT Wonky Square Die.
I used a die set from Crafters Companion to cut out the party hat to make the shaker. The on the inside is purple glitter from the Tiny Bottle Glitter.
All my layers, other than the foam tape for the shaker section of the party hat are put together using ScraPerfect's Best Glue Ever .
With all the birthday's coming up in my family, I will be making quite a few cards, and this quick and simple card will be quite easy to replicate.

I hope you have enjoyed this project today, as much as I have enjoyed sharing it with you.

I've Heard... Picket Fence and and Scrapping For Less

Greetings friends and fellow crafters. LeeAnn here with a project I had a lot of fun creating.
This Picket Fence "Sympathetic Unicorn" stamp set came in perfect timing. I had a coworker who has been down a bit lately, not like herself. While at work the day after this stamp set arrived I started thinking about what I could do, and I came up with this card. The next day it was on her desk when she arrived and now it hangs on her corkboard.

To make this cute card, I first stamped the Unicorn and Cloud out with Gina K Designs Black Amalgam Ink. I knew I would be using Alcohol Markers and this is a safe ink to use. I alternated colors with my markers to color the mane in a rainbow scheme.

The sentiment is stamped inside the card using the same Amalgam ink.
The background pattern paper sheet is from Bo Bunny "Believe" collection.
I stamped the sentiment on a sheet of vellum using the Amalgam ink and heat embossed using Nuvo Jet Black embossing powder. Using strategically placed liquid Multi-Medium Matte under the sentiment, cloud and unicorn
I was able to adhere the Vellum without it being seen. I finished the card off with some "Love Potion" Nuvo Dream Drops.

Loving MFT and Coffee project!!!

Greetings friends and fellow crafters. Had a little fun today making a card for the MFT Challenge this week, as well as the Coffee Lovers Blog Hop. #springsummer2019clh
To make this card I used multiple MFT products including Cardstock in both Pineapple and Lemon Drop. The pattern paper is from the Sweet Celebration paper stack. The sentiment is from Coffee Break, the Cups are from Coffee Date. The background dies are from Blueprint 31. The sentiment is stamped and layered on the Slanted Sentiment strips, and I used Distress Oxide in Squeezed Lemonade with the Sunrise Radiating Rays stencil on the top panel. My black stamping is completed using MFT Extreme black ink and my cups are colored with Artist Loft Alcohol Markers.

I hope you have enjoyed this card as much as I enjoyed making it.

Spring Coffee Blog Hop with Scrapping For Less

Greetings friends and fellow crafters. It is that time of year and I am so excited. The Spring Coffee Lovers Blog Hop has arrived...

Today with my card was made using product from Scrapping For Less including... Pink & Main's Mer-mazing Coffee Stamp Set, which I stamped all over my panel and colored using various colors of alcohol markers. I then did the background using Coffee and Mocha colored alcohol markers to give it a stained look, as if the cups spilled all over.
The sentiment panel is from Echo Park's COFFEE paper pad, which I used one of the cut a-parts and popped it up on some foam adhesive.
A quick fun card to get this hop started.
