Best Day Ever!
Hi friends! It’s Dana (IG: @dkirbystamps) here today, and I am back with a card that uses the Camp Days and Woodland Trio dies from Spellbinders. These dies create the most adorable scene that will have you thinking about summer camp! I’m not much of a camper… but I couldn’t resist creating with these fun dies! I started my card by making my card panel. I ink-blended Sprout, Parsley, Powder, and Harbor ink […]
Happy Big Birthday
Hi Cardmaking Friends, I had so much fun with the new Kristina Werner Big Day set. This set is brilliantly designed! It creates a super festive background and then has all the cheery sentiments you need to complete your card. I don’t know about you, but I am always in need of fun birthday/celebration cards that can work for just about anybody! I started with the Big […]
Beautiful Birthday
Hi Creative Friends, Today, I am sharing a sweet display of flowers from the Delicate Blossoms stamp by Penny Black. I LOVE using their gorgeous floral designs, and this spray of flowers is so simple yet utterly beautiful. I wanted to keep this card display as simple as the flowers. So, to start, I gathered a few supplies. First, a 5″x7″ piece of hot-pressed watercolor paper, my […]
Happy for Ewe
Hi friends! It’s Dana (IG: @dkirbystamps) here today, and I am back with two cards that use the Happy Herd set from Concord & 9th. This set includes a large stamp set that stamps the sheep faces and legs, along with a few companion stamps and sentiments, a stencil for the sheep bodies, and a small set of coordinating dies. Such a fun set to use, and […]
Happy birthday In Plaid
Hi Creative Friends, Every once in a while, or in my case, more often than not, I need a card for the men in my life. And it turns out, I have quite a few! This always presents a problem, as I usually prefer to make more feminine cards. However, I have found one sure fix… the Plaid. And there is no better plaid maker than Kristina […]
A Gardener’s Delight
Hi Creative Friends, Any gardeners in your house? We don’t have one exactly in our house, but the next best thing… a son-in-law that has quite the green thumb! So, in celebration of his birthday, I created a paper garden for him. I had loads of fun adding little details to make it special. To help me out, I used Papertrey Ink’s Above the Ground stamp and […]
Birthday Candles
Hi Creative Friends, We have featured a few card designs recently using the new piercing dies by Concord & 9th. You might have guessed that we can’t get enough of them! They are fabulous! You can stitch, leave them as a blind emboss, or use a pen to accent the detail as we did in today’s project. Along with the Rectangle Frame Piercing dies, we used the […]
Birthday Paw-ty
Hi Creative Friends, You can never have enough birthday cards at the ready in my book, and the Puppy Paw-ty stamp and die set is perfect way to celebrate an animal lover’s birthday. This card was for a special person who just got her own little puppy to love. I had loads of fun making this card. It gave me a chance to do a little coloring […]
Daisy Love
Hi Cardmaking Friends, I have a trio of fun things to share with you today. First, I have three card designs to share that feature the Daisy Bouquet stencil pack by Concord & 9th and Kristina Werner. Kristina is a superb cardmaker, so she knows what works and what’s fun and versatile to work with. So, when you get a Kristina Werner goody, you know it is […]
Sailing Dreams
Hi Creative Friends, It is officially summer, which means its time for vacation or at least more leisurely days. To help get us in the mood, I chose the new Build-A-Saliboat die set by Papertrey Ink. I love the simplicity and fun elements in this set and I think it is fabulous for a male, young or old. All that is required to make this card was […]
