Slimline hedgehogs

Hey there!  Welcome back to my crafty corner.  Today I have fall slimline card with cute hedgehogs from Polka Dot Orchard.  The stamps set is called Autumn is Calling.  You can pick it up in the store for 37% off!  Grab it HERE.

And I'm also using the newly released Fancy Leaves slimline stencil which is also on sale.  You can find the stencil HERE.

Now, how about that card?

I colored up the hedgehogs using Copic markers.  E40, 41, 42 and 44.  E70, 71, 74, 77 and 79.  I used the stencil with Aladine Izink 3D texture paste in Gold over a plum piece of cardstock.  

I cut out a piece of vellum using a die from the Gina Marie slimline Double Roped die set.  I sprayed it with a metallic gold spray and spread it out with my fingers.  I used a heat gun on low to dry it.

I printed out the sentiment from the same digital stamp set and cut it out with a stitched, scallop square die.  I also fussy cut out the two hedgehogs.  I layed the pieces over the vellum to find a good placement as well as where I could hide the adhesive for the vellum.  I attached the vellum, then the sentiment.  I cut pieces of foam tape for the hedgehogs and adhered them to the card.

Remember that all digital stamps and stencils (even the 7 new ones!) are on sale for 37% off.  Now is a great time to stock up!

See you soon.

Coffee Lovers Blog hop take 2

The Coffee Lovers Blog hop is coming to an end soon.  I had high hopes of making many cards but life has just been too crazy!  I did manage to complete one more.

My card today features another older digital stamp set from Polka Dot Orchard.  I hear that all stamp sets and stencils are still on sale for an awesome 37% off!  You better shop the discounted rates while you can!  The set I'm using is called Coffee Pumpkin Flourish.  You can find it right HERE in the PDO store.

And here's my card for today.

I printed the image on watercolor paper and used Karin Markers to color it up.   I cut out the pattern paper from the Simple Stories Cozy Days 6x8 pad with a rectangle die from Gina Marie Designs.  I added that to a dark brown card base.  On the flip side of that same pattern paper was the lovely green.  I cut a small rectangle and glued it in place.  I then spritzed the whole card with a metallic bronze spray.  

While that part dried, I fussy cut the coffee cup out.  I glued it directly on top of the patterned paper.  Then I added Caramel Cream Nuvo drops.  I had a sentiment all ready to add but I decided I loved the card just as it was!

The Coffee Lovers Blog hop continues through tomorrow.  Head HERE to get all the details and see the tons of projects people have been linking up. 

Glad you stopped by!
