I’m back on the Heffy Doodle blog today with another card in my CAS series. Today’s cards feature the Ocean’s of Love set and I’m building a unique scene with the help of a few other Heffy Doodle products. There are two versions of this card with varying degrees of layers. The first step was to stamp out the scene….
Hello, I’m back on the Heffy Doodle blog today with April’s first installment of my CAS (Clean and Simple) series. I challenged myself to use only dies for the main focal point, with just one stamp for a sentiment. Having seen Kelly’s idea of using the Stitched Dino Prints Dies as tulips, I thought I would put my own twist…
Hello, crafters! I’m back on the Heffy Doodle blog today with a fairytale scene card. My cousin is getting married later this year and my Aunt requested a card that was ‘Disney’ and ‘Fairytale’ themed. I immediately thought of Cinderella and the Happily Ever Crafter stamp set! Rather than using a lot of layers to create the background, I thought…
Hello, I’m on the Seven Hills Crafts blog again today with a one layer scene card featuring the Lawn Fawn Really High Five stamp set and some Copic colouring! This idea has been in my head since I first saw this set. Sometimes these scenes can seem daunting, so I’ve broken it down for you into some easy steps. I…
Stencil Layering with Heffy Doodle’s Elephant of Surprise
Birthday Cards, Cardmaking, Thank You CardsI’m back over on the Heffy Doodle blog today with the next in my Clean and Simple (CAS) card series. Today’s step-by-step tutorial is all about stencil layering using the new Circle Masquerade stencil in combination with a bunch of other Heffy stencils. Paired with the Elephant of Surprise stamp set and the Whatcha Saying stamp and die set, this…
I’m stepping out of my CAS style slightly today over on the Heffy Doodle blog to bring you this cheeky thank you card featuring the Chimply the Best stamp set. This base layout is one of my go-to card designs when I have multiple small images and it only requires one or two dies (or more if you want to…
I’m back again on the Heffy Doodle blog with the next in my CAS series. I’m layering up the Circle Masquerade and Rays the Roof stencils, and also featuring the new My Little Angel stamps and Angel Heffy Cuts. I started with the best part – the Copic colouring! I stamped out the Angel on her cloud from the My…
Happy New Year to you all! I hope you managed to have a good break. The run up to Christmas was super busy for me and crafting had to take a little bit of a back seat for a while. I didn’t get a chance to share this non-traditional Christmas card I gave to my Postie (partly in apology for…
I’m back on the Seven Hills Crafts blog again today with this cute, clean and simple one layer Christmas card featuring the Santa Bear stamp set from Avery Elle. I really am loving these simple designs as I get to practice my colouring and use some of those Christmas sets that haven’t gotten as much use as they probably should…
I’m back today on the Seven Hills Crafts blog with a simple design for those last minute Christmas cards. Just in case anyone is panicking that we have less than a month till Santa! Stamps like the Avery Elle Christmas Kids set are perfect for these type of scene cards. I have two versions of this card with slightly different…
Hello, I’m on the Seven Hills Crafts blog today with some more Christmas inspiration. It’s an MFT week for me and at first I thought I was going to have to bin these backgrounds before they ever made it to a card base. Sometimes, you just have to keep going and it turns out okay in the end! I used…
More often recently I am finding I am creating cards that move towards the CAS – clean and simple – style. Lots of white space, one layer and perhaps one central image. Sometimes, just adding a simple shaped background can frame your central image and create a focal point. Today, I used the Mama Elephant Fuzzy Hugs stamp set, two sentiment sets…
