To My Sweet Friend Window Card

Hey there, today I'm sharing a window card created using mainly Mama elephant products. I also used the flowers and leaves from Lawn Fawn. Check it out!

I die cut window frame thrice and glued them together as seen below. I wanted to create a windowsill planter and filled it up with flowers and leaves.

Here’s a closer look at the windowsill planter.

Then, the fun part, decorating it with the pretty flowers from Lawn Fawn.

Next, I moved on to use the brick stencil and distress ink & oxide to create the brick wall look for the base of the card.

I used a craft knife to cut out a rectangle for the window opening and added a little shade and sentiment.

For the inside of the card, I stamped and coloured Mama Elephant ‘Sincerely Yours’ stamps and use Prima Marketing Inc patterned paper.

This card has two layers - one for indoor scene and another for writing greetings to friend.

Here’s a close-up look of the completed card.

Slimline Scene Builder Card: You Leveled Up! (It's Your B-Day)

Hello! I am really really excited to share my slimline scene builder card on my blog. For this card, I was inspired by Mama Elephant Scenescape Builder creative cuts that I was so tempted to buy it but did not. Hence, without the specialty dies, I came out with my own measurements for the various parts to form this 3D display card. With my paper trimmer, I cut out the base for the background 6.25 by 3.5 inches, the foreground piece 7.25 by 1 inches and the two pieces by the side 2.25 by 2 inches. Next, I inked the background with distress ink (aged mahogany & walnut stain) and oxide (abandoned coral) and MFT Small Brick Wall stencil. As for the foreground and side, I simply used distress ink (black soot) and distress oxide (walnut stain). I also prepared two strips of paper for the middle ground. Here's a quick look at the pieces with measurements. I further trimmed some of the pieces to ensure they fit. Once all the pieces for...

From the Whole Herd Birthday card

Today, I’m sharing a very simple birthday card. I’m planning to participate in the MFT Wednesday Sketch challenge. For this card, I started with the stamping of the sentiments first. With that as a reference, I picked 3 sentiments and stamped them on the 3 strips of paper. Then, with Prima marketing inc. stencil, I inked the background of the card with distress oxide (rusty hinge and vintage photo). I chose the stamp set, ‘The Whole Herd’ from MFT for this card. This is a stamp set that I’ve bought many years back and still in good condition. I stamped it on a beige paper and decided to use colour pencils. For colouring with colouring pencils, I usually start with the light colours as a base colour and I will gradually build up the colours, layering and blending the colours. Once done, I fussy cut the stamped animals as I did not buy the die cut previously. Next, with foam dots, I arranged the animals and paste them the bigger strip of beige pa...

Slimline Scene Builder Card - Soak Up the Fun… Hope your Birthday is a Splash!

Hi there, I’m here to share another scene builder card. This time on an outdoor scene! Check it out! Likewise, I cut out all the pieces of paper first with my paper trimmer. A background piece, 3 long strips of paper for foreground and middle ground and 2 smaller pieces of paper for the sides. Then, using Lawn Fawn, stitched simple wavy borders, I die cut the long strips to create the ocean scene. Next, I inked the strips with various shades of blue. I used Hero Arts Shadow Ink: Mint Julep; Tide Pool, Pool and Navy. For the background, I used Lawn Fawn, 'Palm tree border' lawn cut and inked it with distress oxide: Vintage photo, rusty hinge, mustard seed and mowed lawn. I decided to use the smooth sailing stamp set and the coordinating lawn cut from Lawn Fawn and a cute whale 🐳 from MFT for this card. The colouring is done with copic markers. Finally, the fun part, I arranged all the images and used the sentiments from MFT to complete the card...
