Heffy Friends Blog Hop

Hello friends!  Today I am so excited to join some very talented Heffy Doodlers on the Heffy Doodle Friends Blog Hop. If you have already started hopping along and you have arrived from Michelle's Blog you are on the right track. Stay tuned to find out where to Hop next at the end of this post.

My cards today feature some really cute stamps, stencils and dies from the latest release that I hope will inspire you.

CARD DETAILS

For my first card, I stamped out the cutest images from the Quack Me Up set (SSS | SB | HD), colored them in with Copics and then used the coordinating Quack Me Up Dies (SSS | SB | HD) to cut them out.

To create the rainy background, I stamped out the raindrops and then heat set them using white embossing powder. I then used Stormy Sky Distress Oxide ink and Black Soot to blend out and create some grey skies. I then spritzed the sky with water to add more texture and used a paper towel to pick up the water droplets and wipe off the ink from the embossed raindrops.

The sentiments come from the Quack Me Up Set (SSS | SB | HD), that I paired with the Sunshine Heffy Cut Die (SSS | SB | HD).

To embellish I used Liquid Pixie Dust on the clouds and the water puddles and then added glossy accents for added dimension and shine.

Here is an image of the Copics used on the Sunshine Card.

For my next card, I created a Princess Birthday Spinner.  I fell in love with the Happily Ever Crafter Set (SSS | SB | HD) as the stamps are so versatile and could be used for so many occasions. My little niece's birthday is coming up and thought this would be a fun card for her.

For this card, once again I stamped out the images from the Happily Ever Crafter set (SSS | SB | HD) that I was going to use and colored them in using Copic marker and then die cut them using the coordinating Happily Ever Crafter Dies (SSS | SB | HD). Since I wanted to make this a spinner I actually stamped out two little princesses and two veils. Usually, for spinners, you need to do mirror stamping but since the bottom of her dress was pretty symmetrical I was able two get away from mirror stamping and actually create a backside for the image.

I then glued the veil facing forward on what would be the front-facing princess and then taped and glued a clear thread down the center of the back of her. Next, I sandwiched the tread with the backside princess and covered most of her up by gluing the veil over her face covering up her arms and face, creating the illusion of her backside. I then secured the ends of the clear thread the front of a card panel that I had die cut a circle opening from.

To create the glittered heart panel, I first die cut the circular window to line up with the card base. I then used the Steady Heart Stencil (SSS | SB | HD) to blend out some pink hearts using Worn Lipstick Distress Oxide ink. Before adding my glimmer paste to the stencil and the card panel I stamped out the "to my little" sentiment under the window opening. Had I added the glimmer paste first I probably wouldn't have been able to stamp out the greeting like I had?  I then glued the heart panel onto the card base which also sandwiched in the thread in between the two layers.

To finish off the front sentiment, I used the Princess Heffy Cut die (SSS | SB | HD) from a gold glitter piece of cardstock that I had added foam to give it more dimension.

On the inside, I glued the cutest little carriage and stamped out the birthday greeting.

Watch this little clip to see the princess in action!
