Paper Smooches Hugs & Kisses Card Video

Hello fellow card makers. Today I am sharing with you a card I made using products by Paper Smooches. As soon as I saw the Hugs and Kisses die set, I wanted to make this card. This card required no stamps, or even ink. This card is the epitome of clean and simple.  The top-folding A2 sized card base is made from Simon Says Stamp Fog cardstock. I also used some Neenah 110 lb Solar White and Simon Says Stamp Black. The shaker bits are Mini Prills in the Red color. I accented the card with some Nuvo Crystal drops in Ebony Black. For a list of supplies, a link to my YouTube video, and some photos look below.

Brice's Monster Mash Card with Video

Hello fellow card makers. Today I am sharing with you a card I made for my Nephew, Brice. He is turning 8 this month. This is the card I created for him. I made this card using a camouflage technique with some Mama Elephant Inline Letters dies.  I also used Lawn Fawn's Monster Mash Stamp set along with a few stamps from MFT's Adorable Elephants and Beary Special Birthday. Some photos of my card, a list of supplies, and a link to my YouTube video are below.

Your Next Stamp Chameleon Feature Day Card with Video

Hello fellow card makers. Today I am sharing my Feature Day card for Your Next Stamp. Today also happens to be Karen's Sons birthday, Karen is the owner of Your Next Stamp. To Celebrate this, she is offering 22% off! For more information visit the Your Next Stamp Blog. To visit the Your Next Stamp Blog... Click Here! To visit the Your Next Stamp Store... Click Here! To check out their new Releases... Click Here!

The Feature Day objective for us was to be inspired by a famous artist or painting to create a project. I have always been attracted to Graffiti art. In my opinion Graffiti art isn't a crime, the real crime is to not see the beauty and talent behind it. Don't get me wrong, destruction of property is a crime, but artists such as Lee Quinones, when given the proper outlet, can really display true talent and inspiration. So, I used him and the New York City Subway art movement as my inspiration for todays card.

I used the One in a Chameleon Stamp set to create my card. I tried to make it appear as though he was camouflaged into the brick wall.  I also used the Mud Splatter stamp set to create my colorful background with a rainbow of ink colors. I made sure to mask his eyes and shadow his body to make sure the life of the image still existed. Photos of my project, a link to the YouTube video creating this card, and a full list of supplies are below.
