Hello everyone! Here’s my second entry in the Hero Arts “Die-Lightful” paper crafting challenge. It’s similar to the card I posted earlier, with the same Hero Arts holiday sentiment stamp, the same die and the same Christmas-themed papers from the same paper pack.

Craft Supplies You’ll Need for Creating a Similar Christmas Card:

  • Hero Arts Hero Greetings Christmas Messages Stamps
  • Hero Arts Dies: I don’t know of any dies that are specifically intended to coordinate with the Christmas Messages stamps. However, I happened to discover a funny coincidence; some of the dies from the WB1081 Travel Bundle are the perfect sizes and shapes for cutting out the Christmas messages.
  • Die Cutter: I used the Hero Arts Compact Cutter, but you can use any comparable die cutting machine.
  • Patterned Papers from the Scrapbook Customs Christmas Watercolor 6″x6″ Paper Pack (or any similar Christmas themed papers)
  • Memento Love Letter ink pad
  • Rustic Wilderness Distress Oxide Ink Pad
  • Christmas Themed Washi Tape by Recollections

The lovely folks over at Pinkfresh Studio are having a new challenge with the theme of stripes and gradients. This is the third project I’m submitting for the challenge — Plus I made a bunch of extra ink-blended papers that have ink blending, stripes and gradients. There will be more striped cards in my future!

Here you can see some of ink blending and striping I did for this challenge, along with the Vertical Stripes Stencil by Pinkfresh Studio. Love this stencil! I used it to make the bottom three ink-blended papers you see pictured below:

I actually chose this stencil, not because I wanted to ink blend with it, but because I thought it would be a good item to have on hand for making journaling spots. I do use it pretty frequently for that purpose. I think it is now one of my new favorite stencils for ink blending, too. LOVE it!

New Scrapbooking Layout: Two Harbors Campground

Two Harbors Campground — A Scrapbooking Layout Featuring Supplies by Pinkfresh Studio

The lovely folks over at Pinkfresh Studio are having a new challenge with the theme of stripes and gradients. This is my second project entry for the challenge. It’s a brand new scrapbooking layout featuring a photo of me at Two Harbors Campground on Catalina Island.

Just offshore from the campground in this photo is Little Fisherman’s Cove, which is one of my favorite anchorages on planet earth — love, love, LOVE it there. This pic brings back such happy memories of fun times, long hikes with my husband and sailing adventures. While the honest truth is, I am actually glad to have settled back into the boring life of a landlubber, scrapping these pics sort of gives me wanderlust all over again.

This layout does actually have stripes, but they got a little buried under various other layers. I made the stripes using Pinkfresh Studio’s Horizontal Stripes stencil.
