Big Hugs Slimline Card Using A Colorful Life Designs

 Hello everyone.  I have a Slimline card today using A Colorful Life Designs Bauhaus Curved Lines 6x9 Stencil from A colorful Life Designs Newest Release. Use VonFan10 to save on your orders.

Let's Get Started:

I love Slimline cards and like that they fit in letter size envelopes. I really liked the pattern of this stencil I think it kinda looks like half rainbows. I chose to ink the Bauhaus Curved Lines Stencil with Catherine Pooler Hot Tub ink on white cardstock 110 pounds. I love this color of ink it reminds me of Sage which I love.  I then cut this background out with a Slimline die from Trinity Stamps called Dainty Scallop Edge Slimline Die.

I have these silver glittery Letter Thickers in my stash so I thought I would use them for this card. Sometimes Hugs are needed it makes your recipient feel good. Can be use for Sympathy cards too. I then added some Metallic Silver Card Bling also from A Colorful Life Designs. My background was glued to a 3 1/3 x 8 white side folding card base.  I hope you check out the New Release. Tomorrow we will have our monthly Mid Month inspiration stencil that will be on sale for a round $4 and you can use my code VonFan10 on that too to make it even cheaper.  

I had so much fun making this card!

The Greeting Farm February 2025 Challenge

 Hello everyone.  I'm back to share a Valentine card I made.  I thought I would participate in The Greeting Farm February 2025 Challenge.  This challenge takes place in The Greeting Farm Fan Group on FB.

The Greeting Farm Rules:

I used a retired stamp called Love Couple from The Greeting Farm.  You may be able to ask for it at their next Farmers Market. I love this Anya and Ian.  So cute.  I stamped and heat embossed booth Anya, Ian, and the trio of hearts with Versafine black onyx ink and clear embossing powder.  I then colored them in with a mix of Copic Markers and OLO Markers.  I fussy cut my images leaving a white border.  Later, I embossed a sentiment from the same stamp set on red paper 65 pounds, I stamped and heat embossed with white ink and white embossing powder.  I also fussy cut out the sentiment.

On cream paper 110 pounds I ink blended the Scribbled Heart Stencil from Catherine Pooler using Poppy ink cube from Concord & 9th. I had to move my stencil over to ink more of the stencil for my slimline panel to have enough background for my card.  I used a Slimline die from My Creative Time to cut out my scribbled hearts background. I cut out a coordinating card base and glued everything to it.  I dip pop up my sentiment with foam tape and added some white gel pen accents. I did add some pink chalk to Anya and Ian's cheeks but it's very light. This card measures 7 3/8 x 3 1/2.  I had so much fun making this card.

Graceful Flowers Sending Love & Hugs

 Hello everyone.  I have a Slimline card today using the Simon Says Stamp August 2024 kit Graceful Flowers.  I have been wanting to use this floral stamp.  The last time I used the kit was for the Blossom Swag embossing folder and I made a video you can watch it here

I had so much fun making this card.  It was easy too.  I started out with white cardstock 110 pound.  I stamped the floral image from the Graceful Flowers Stamp set with Versafine Onyx ink and heat embossed with clear embossing folder using my Misti stamping platform.  I loved the Paper Rose Botanical Blooms pattern papers from the kit so I used markers close to those colors to color my floral image.

I then cut out my floral image with a Simon Says Stamp Slimline Scallop Frame die using the largest die from the set. It cuts a border and inner rectangle out. I wanted blue around my image like the Paper Rose Botanical Blooms pattern paper so I inked around it using Distress Oxide ink in Broken China and a blending brush.  I also inked the scalloped border to match.  

I glued everything to a Slimline card base and I popped up the inner die-cut with foam and liquid glue.  I stamped and heat embossed a sentiment from the Graceful Flowers Stamp.  I then fussy cut around it to fit better on my card. I popped it up with some foam sqaures from the kit. I embellished with some green gems from Pinkfresh studio.  I absolutely love how it came out.  It's a Beautiful stamp set and it's still available I will link it down below.

Layered Bunny Faces Slimline Card

 Hello everyone.  I have my last Easter card to share, so Happy Easter.  I was wanting to make a Slimline card.  It's a funny felling, like a craving.  At least it's calorie Free right?? 

I started out with white cardstock.  I used the Layered Bunny Faces Stencils from A Colorful Life Designs. It's such a cute stencil set. Use VonFan10 to save 10% off off at A Colorful Life Designs.  For stencil #1 I used Concord & 9th Sea Glass ink cube with a blending brush for the bunny heads.  I then used for stencil #2 Hero Arts Cup O Joe ink cube.  Using this color combo I wanted Mint N Chip ice Cream.  It was very easy to layer my stencil for a Slimline.  I cut out my background using a Slimline die from Honey Bee Stamps.  It cuts out a eyelet frame and inner rectangle.

I glued my slimline panel and eyelet frame to a kraft card base.  I then cut out a Easter word from Simon says Stamp out of kraft cardstock 2 times.  I also ink blended it after I glued it together with Hero Arts Cup O Joe ink cube.  I glued it to my card.  I also cut out a bunny face from the Simon says Stamp peeking Bunny die with white cardstock and I ink blended it to match.  I stamped a Hoppy sentiment from Simon Says Stamp Hoppy Days stamp with black ink.  I cut the sentiment and added it with foam tape to my card.  

I used a pink marker and added cheeks to my stenciled bunnies and die-cut bunny using a pink marker.  Lastly, I added some sequins from Doodles Paper Playground in Broken Glass.  I hope you like my bunny card.  I had so much fun making it.

Thank you for stopping by 💚

Coffee is the Answer Christmas Card

 Hello everyone.  I have a Christmas Slimline card today.  I made this card for the Fall Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop.  I always have so much fun during the Coffee Hops. Don't you?

This card was a little hard to photograph because of my foil strip and word sentiment strip but in person it's really pretty.  I used Stamp Simply Have A Cup On Us Bundle.  I love these coffee cups especially the one with circles.  I stamped my images on white cardstock with Honey Bee Stamps Black ink.  I colored them in with my alcohol markers.  I then used the dies to cut them out.

I then used a Slimline Die set from Picket Fence Studios as well as my word sentiment die.  I cut out some Christmas pattern paper with the smaller Slimline die and with the larger slimline die I cut out some blue cardstock.  I cut out my word die with black cardstock and then cut a silver foil cardstock into a strip.  I glued everything to a Slimline card base.  I then added some Pink & Main silver pearls.  I hope you like my card even though the photo does not do the justice.
