Birthday Card with Stencil Butters

 Today I would like to share a card that is primarily stenciling.  I used two colors of stencil butter, which are found in the Blank Page Muse shop.  The ones I used are the pearl ones, and they are just sooooooo pretty!  The photos do not do this justice - it was so hard to capture!



I just randomly applied the two colors stencil butter over the stencil to cover the stencil, and then when I scraped off the excess, they blended and mixed to get a really pretty look.  The base for this was the silver glitter alcohol ink cardstock.  It does hold up well to stencil butter.

I didn’t want to cover up any of the pretty stencil, so I used a fun circle sentiment over top, matted the card in the same color turquoise cardstock, and called the card complete.

If you haven’t had a chance to try these stencil butters, they are really a lot of fun, and easy and smooth to use.  Thanks for visiting today!

The products I used in this card are:

The Crafters Workship Wave 6x6 stencil

I Brake for Stamps sentiment from Thinking, Happy, Get Well, Thanks set

Spring Bunny Card

 Today I would like to share this cute spring bunny.  She is peaking out of a spring meadow.  

How I did this card was starting with watercolor paper.  I took 3 shades of Distress inks and sponged them on the side of my panel. I didn’t bother doing any masking or anything, just sponged them on and blended.  The colors are Scattered Straw, Mowed Lawn and Broken China.  I then splattered some clean water on to get texture, and then, I splattered some water colored with the Broken China blue ink to get some colored texture.  


After this dried, I stamped my bunny over top with Versafine Black ink.  I used water based markers to fill in the image and then blended it with a wet brush.  

After adding this sentiment on a green strip and matting with the same color, I finished the card with a few different tiny orange gems.  

I really like the spring look of this card!  I hope it gives you an idea too.

The stamp I used is from the I Brake for Stamps store and it is called Large Rabbit.  It is available both separate and as a part of this great set called MS110 Full Plate. You can use my affiliate code BPMHeidi to save 15%.

Spring Bird House Card with Ephemera and Stamps

 Hello and Happy Monday!  Spring has definitely sprung so it is time for a bird card!

This was for another challenge in my Artsy Inkers online group where we needed to use three different embellishments.  That was a little hard for me but I did come up with this.


This uses Stampin Up Birds and Branches stamps and dies.  K&Company Antique Garden 6x8 patterned paper pad and Ephemera pack.

Hope you are having a good day! Thank you for visiting and all your kind comments.

Masculine Mountain Card

 Hello everyone! I hope you had a good Saturday and didn’t get fooled by anyone.  

Today, I would like to share a masculine card that I made for a challenge in my Artsy Inkers group.  We were to create this aperture by cutting an X in patterned paper and then fold it over.  Connie calls it Bursting Out.  I’m not sure if there is another name for this type of fold.

This was easy to do once I picked some double sided paper and found an exact-o knife to cut the x.  

The stamps are Elizabeth Crafts Summer Sentiments and Camping Out and the paper is My Mind’s Eye Happy Camper. I did just color the image a bit with alcohol markers.

Thanks for stopping by!
