Blank Page Muse: Easy Colourful Birthday Cards

October 18th 2023

Today I have some cards inspired by an online art journal class I did last month through my local store - fab class by Naomi Alchin!

I've used Lindy's magicals to create the shiny coloured strips on the cards - I love the shine on these magicals.

Here are the supplies I used and links to them in store:

You Make Me Happy Hummingbird Clear Stamp Set

Butterfly Breezes Clear Stamp Set

Numbers & Flowers Half Sheet Set

Steampunk Circus Stamp Set

Honey Bee Honeycomb Stencil by Miss Rach

These cards are really easy! Cut some strips of watercolour paper and use whatever you have on hand to colour them - I used Lindy's Magicals - you could use watercolours, any ink sprays you have - delve into your stash!

Once dry stencil with black paint - lots of stencils in store you can use for this step! I used the "dots" from the Numbers & Flowers half set to add a few spots of black to the coloured strips.

Stamp your images on watercolour paper and colour with Lindy's Magicals or whatever you used for your strips then fussy cut.

Add some white outlines and paint splatters along with your stamped images and your cards are done!

Blank Page Muse Stamps: Digital Creativity!

October 6th 2023

Today I am sharing some cards using digital files - yes you heard correctly there are some fabulous digital download products available in the store!

Here's the link to the Digital Section of the Store CLICK HERE

I'm using the "Fall Teal Flowers and Leaves" Set - the colours of this set are so gorgeous.

I've made 2 greeting cards - combining the digital images, red rubber stamps and clear stamps - perfect to show you how you can combine different items from the store on your creations!

Products used:

Fall Digital Files

Special Day Clear Sentiments Birthday Stamps Set by Pam Bray

Special Day Clear Sentiments Flowers Set by Pam Bray

Vintage Farm Receipt (red rubber)

Book Page (red rubber)

Digital files are great because you can print on different papers to get different effects! For my cards I printed the "tags" on plain white card and although they had some printed texture I also decided to use some the red rubber stamps listed above to add more interest to them - I used black ink on one and vintage brown on the other - love the different looks - you can use any ink colour depending on the theme you are creating!

I printed the leaves on glossy photo paper and fussy cut some out to add individually - the colours are so gorgeous - they "pop" on the glossy paper - the glossy paper would be perfect for using the whole image as a background.

I stamped sentiments from the clear stamp sets onto kraft card.

I added all the stamped elements to the card fronts and added some little Tim Holtz vintage people and bits & pieces to finish off . I love how these turned out!

Blank Page Muse Stamps: Happy Birthday "New" Dad!

November 28th 2022

Today I am sharing a "personalized card" I made for my daughter to give her partner as a "New Dad" for his birthday!

I've used stamps and a stencil from the Blank Page Muse & I Brake For Stamps Stores!

The Sentiment and Alphabet Stamps available in store are just perfect for adding to a personal card.

I added "Happy Birthday" and "DAD" letters to a  card base along with a photo printed on glossy paper along with a few other embellishments.

I used "handprint" stickers but you could also use the handprint stamp available in store - link below!

You can have a lot of fun making personalized cards - you could even use pics of your pets!

And don't forget to stencil the envelope to have a matching "set"!

Stamps/Stencil used:

Happy Birthday

License Plate Alphabet

Baby Hand Print

Dogs on the Block....

May 20th 2018
One of my fav digi stap sets by Vera Lane Studio "Dogs on the Block"!!! Of course I love anything with dogs! Firstly I have a set of 4 made in CAS style with Kraft & Black colour combo and then below you will see a total opposite set coloured with copics and ink sprayed - still CAS style but with a lot more colour!! Both sets were donated to Dog charities for online auctions to raise much needed funds!

 

I used one of my favourite colour combos (Kraft & Black) to create these CAS style cards - CAS is not something I do a lot as I never seem to be able to make CAS style look right but I am happy with these!

And here are coloured cards - I really love how these turned out - they are such fun digis and perfect for these cards - I will certainly be using these images again and again!!

 

Sentiments on all of the cards are also by Vera Lane Studio - great mix & match sets!
