 Todays card features products from Heffy Doodle.

This card uses the Hootiful clear stamp set from Heffy Doodle. 

I started by stamping the owls, branches, and tree stump images with Memento Tuxedo black ink as I wanted to use my Tri Blend Alcohol markers by Spectrum Noir to colour them but I stamped the moon with Versa-fine Onyx Black as I planned to colour this with my Cosmic Shimmer Iridescent watercolour paints. I used Snow Angel from set 7, Christmas which you can find here.

Next I move on to colouring my images and I used the following colours: 


Unfortunately I do not yet own the coordinating dies to this stamp set so I had to fussy cut them out after this I placed them to one side and moved on to creating my background.

I used the outer frame from Heffy Doodle's Clover Frame Dies to die cut myself an A2 panel to create my background on. I used the Distress Inks shown on the top line below (Scattered Straw, Chipped Sapphire and Black Soot) to try to create a light nights sky and then Forest Moss to create a ground but I tried not to blend the two areas together which left a nice white highlight between the two areas.


 After I had done the background I took the Star stamps from the Hootiful set and randomly stamped them over my sky section and I used Snow Angel again to colour them and also splatter the background too! 
  
My next task was to create a sentiment and I was drawn to the "wishing you a hootiful day" but I added Beautiful from Apple Blossom's Butterfly Sentiment stamp set too as I like how beautiful and hootiful rhyme. I backed my sentiment onto some black card from my stash to help it pop and them I adhered all the images and my sentiment to the background I had created and then popped it onto an A2 card blank.



I hope you like my creation and are inspired to try something similar yourself...

Today’s make Is a card made using product from several different brands... It has a 6 x 6 white card base which has been matted and layered with Tonic Studios Craft Perfect card stock in Aubergine Purple which I gutted using a large square die. The next layer has been embossed using the Dotty Floral folder from Apple Blossoms All Occasion Collection. I used Spectrum Noir marker PL3 to colour the flowers and added Simply Creative 3mm self adhesive gems to the centres. I next cut out the sentiment strip using Apple Blossom’s Spring Occasions set. The next step was to ink the sentiment which I took from Creative Stamps Easter Chicks and Bunnies set (which is where the bunnies came from also). The cute little bunnies have been coloured with Spectrum Noir markers... Left bunny - MB1 and MB2 Right bunny - RB1 and RB2 Both bunnies have AP1 for the insides of the ears and IG2 blended out with the colourless blender marker and these areas have also been covered with a Wink of Stella

 Today I want to share with you this card that I recently made using Time for Tea Designs Pandamodium Party... This is a design that I saw Sam Calcott make and if you would like to try one for yourself then  Click here . I started by taking a piece of patterned paper in this case I used polka dot cardstock from my stash and cut it down to 5 1/2 x 5 1/2 inch's. Then i flipped it over and marked out 1" and 1 1/2" from both sides top and bottom and joined then up. Next I rotated the \piece and marked out 1" from both sides and joined these up also. Now the fun part make a note of the top and then using a sharp blade cut :0 and I have included this next image to try and help visually describe how! I also followed Sam's tutorial and added to the image where the glue will be added later! Where the cut is, we now need to score a burnish, at 1", 2 1/2" and 4" from the bottom up... Next I took a piece of white cardstock 5 3/4 x 5 3/4 inch's and using th
