You're So FabOOlous Halloween Light Up/Wobbles Card | Ink On 3/Pear Blossom Press Collab

Hello Friends and Happy Saturday!

I hope you can join me over on Instagram for a fun IG Hop. Just in case you can't though, I still wanted to share this cute Interactive Halloween card here with you today featuring products from Inkon3 and Pear Blossom Press.

CARD DETAILS

This cute card wobbles and lights up. I began this card by stamping out the cute ghost images from the PUMPKIN FRIENDS set (which at the moment is sold out, sorry) using BLACKOUT INK. I then colored it in with a few Copic markers and fussy cut the images.

To create the background I used Atelier Inks, (see colors used below in the thumbnails) as well as the WAVY STENCIL. I then punched a few holes for the wire of the EZ-Lights to fit through. I also punched out the eyes of the larger ghost and attached one light behind each eye using tape to secure it in place. Behind the ghost, I also added an Action Wobbles Spring, then pull the excess wiring behind the panel. 

To make the ghost's eyes look cute and not scary, I first drew in some lashes and then added a couple of black sparkly transparent crystals.

Next, I stamped out the You're so sentiment from BAD AND BOUJEE onto my card panel before going any further. (forgot to stamp it prior to wiring). I then stamped out the fabOOlous onto black cardstock using JUICY INK and heat embossed it with ARCTIC WHITE E. POWDER. The FabOOlous was created by combining two sets, 1. DOGWOOD FLOWER and 2. PHAT ALPHANUMERIC. Using a piercing tool I poked holes through the centers of the O's.

Behind the sentiment, I used the last EZ-Light and attached it between the two O's to add a glow in behind them. I then added foam to the strip and attached it to the card front.

Finally, I taped down the EZ-Light push button behind the sentiment strip, where the recipient will push down on. Taped the excess wires to the pack of the card panel, leaving room along with the edges to add foam around the border and attached it to the card base.

And there you have it, a Halloween Light Up/Wobbles Card. SO cool right!? 

I hope you can catch the Instagram hop, I will post a quick video of the card coming together. Plus, both companies will be giving away some great prizes.

Thank you for stopping by and until next time... Happy Crafting!

Altenew May 2019 Stamp/Die/Stencil/Ink/Enamel Pin Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

Hello Everyone and Welcome the Altenew May 2019 Stamp/Die/Stencil/Ink/Enamel Pin Release Blog Hop. I'm so happy to be a part of this amazing release. Thank you Altenew for having me once again!

If you have already started hopping, you should have arrived from the super talented Virginia Lu's Blog, but if you didn't, don't worry you can find the complete list at the bottom of this post. You also may just want to start at the beginning at the Altenew Card Blog since I am towards the end of the Hop. So let's get started!

CARD DETAILS

For my first card, I began by stamping out the Everlasting Happiness florals onto a piece of Bristol Paper using watermark ink and heat setting the lined in white. I then used Zig Brushes to loosely watercolor the background panel. Once the panel was dry I trimmed it and attached it the card base.

The sentiment I added to the center comes from the new Best Things stamp set that I stamped and heat embossed in black and glued onto a background piece of paper that I colored in using the same background colors. I then just popped up in the center of the card. As for little embellishments, I added some green crystals to the centers of the flowers.

Since Mother's Day is just around the corner I thought I would use the same Everlasting Happiness florals to create a Mother's Day Card.

To do this I first I lined up the Everlasting Happiness floral image in my stamping tool to stamp on the top half of the card panel and then just flipped the paper to stamp again on the bottom half of the panel, creating a reverse image on the bottom. This time I used gold embossing powder to heat set the lines.

I then stamped out the letters for Mom using the Ombré Alpha Stamp Set in the middle of the card using Worn Lipstick Oxide Ink and then set it with clear embossing powder.

To add a touch of color I used worn lipstick to blend around the outer edges of the card panel and then added a few clear pink crystals to the fower centers. Trimmed the panel and added it to the card base.

For this last card, I drew on my Portuguese roots as Inspiration. If you have ever visited Portugal I am sure you would have seen similar hand-painted tiles because they are everywhere. They were used in many wall and flooring projects in the 16th and 17th centuries.

This card may look hard to make but it actually wasn't very difficult. I began by lining up the stamps 3 across and 2 down in my stamp positioner. I then stamped out 2 card panels using the Mustard Seed Oxide ink first and set the panels aside to dry. Once the panels were dry I placed one of them back in the stamping tool. I then moved the cleaned off stamps around and repositioned them to stamp directly over the previously stamped ones but using a different design. I used a powder tool over the panel first to ensure the ink was dry and then used Blueprint Sketch Oxide ink to stamp over the yellow layer. I then repeated the same process with the other piece of paper I had stamped in the previous step. Before the blue ink dried I added clear embossing powder to the ink and heat set it to give the blue ink a gloss/tile like effect.

 I then just used a paper trimmer and cut images into tile-like squares. I then arranged the pattern onto my card base and popped up the pieces using foam tape. For extra pops of blue, I added some crystals here and there onto some of the tiles.

The sentiment I used comes from the Fancy Greetings Stamp Set that I also stamped out in Blue and then just fussy cut around the edges.

I hope you were inspired by my cards today, I had fun playing with these new sets and making them!
