Hello. I’m back on the Seven Hills Crafts blog today with a set of cards featuring the MFT Picture Perfect set. Combined with the Lawn Fawn Say Cheese, Again die, these cards are a great way to practice your alcohol marker colouring and put a smile on the recipient’s face! I started off by stamping out four of the images…
Hello. I’m back on the Seven Hills Crafts blog with a card that’s a little more masculine. I needed a spaced themed card with a birthday greeting and I’ve never done a galaxy background with my alcohol markers before so I thought it was time to give it a try! I started out by stamping the spaceman and a bunch…
Hello, I’m back on the Seven Hills Crafts blog today with a wedding card featuring the Colorado Craft Company Lovely Legs Happy Forevering stamp set. I haven’t used my coloured pencils for a while so this card was a perfect time to bring them out! These stamps have a lot of detail in terms of shading so are perfect to…
I’m back on the Seven Hills Crafts blog with a trio of get well soon cards, featuring the Get Well Soon Before ‘n After stamp set from Lawn Fawn. I have used the smaller stamps and some rainbow patterned papers from Lawn Fawn and Simple Stories to create some bright and cheery greetings! I started by stamping out the turtle,…
I’m on the Seven Hills Crafts blog today with a cute little bunny birthday celebration! This uses three different sets – Starry Scene, We Herd and Essential Sentiments – from three different companies – Avery Elle, Waffle Flower and My Favorite Things – and was partly inspired by this set of cards from Yainea. It’s such a great and simple…
Hello, I’m back on the Seven Hills Crafts blog again today for my usual weekly slot. I have a bright birthday card featuring the Avery Elle Peek-a-Boo Summer Pals set. Perfect for our recent summery weather! I started by stamping out the toucan, frog and flamingo (and their coordinating arms/legs/wings!) from the set with some MFT Extreme Black ink onto some blending…
I have a striking birthday card today on the SHC blog featuring some homemade background paper and the MFT Birthday Chicks stamp set. There are several products I use to create striped backgrounds like this one – the Altenew Classy Stripes stencil, the Concord & 9th Stripes and Sayings stamp or MFT Black and White Stripes Paper are just a couple of them. Six months…
Today’s card is for a friend that just moved into a new home. The Lawn Fawn Toadally Awesome set is perfect for saying congrats! I started out by creating a circular mask from some acetate and a Lawn Fawn Stitched Circle die so I could use a stencil. I used some Broken China and Mermaid Lagoon Distress Oxide Ink to blend on a gradient within the circle….
I was given the challenge to create some new baby cards this week by a family member, so I made two mini scene cards based around the Lawn Fawn Plus One stamp set. I started out with two A6 panels of Lawn Fawn Sticky Note cardstock. For some background detail, I stamped one with a small star from the Plus One stamp set and…
I’m back today with a fun underwater scene card combining two Lawn Fawn stamp sets: Duh Nuh and You Are Sublime. An extra layer of acetate makes it more tank-like! I started out by stamping the characters from both sets in some MFT Extreme Black ink onto some blending cardstock. I then coloured them in with my alcohol markers, keeping to bright greens, oranges and…
One of the bonuses of having a sort out of your stamps is that you find some older sets that perhaps you didn’t get quite as much use out of them that you should. My friend Lesley Oman (owner of Heffy Doodle and HungryHeffy) often plays Stamp Roulette to give the muse a few prompts with some unusual combinations. Now…
Hello, all. Spring is definitely in the air here and it’s getting close to Easter so my card today over on the Seven Hills Crafts blog is inspired by some cute little bunnies from the Lawn Fawn Some Bunny stamp set. It’s not quite the right time of year here to be harvesting carrots, but that doesn’t stop these little…
