Happy Birthday to a Friend Like GNOME Other

Hello PND Fans! Betty here today with a slimline card featuring stamps from the fabulous Gnome Set. This set includes 4 gnomes, a gnome house, and 5 stamps to build a scene. Such a fun set for making some fun projects. I made this slimline birthday card using two of the gnomes and the mushroom-butterfly stamp.

First I printed the digital stamps 3" tall. I colored them with Copic markers then fussy cut the gnomes and used a 3" stitched circle die to cut the mushroom-butterfly.

Copic markers used:

I used a 2-1/2" stitched circle die to cut the patterned paper. The paper is from Photoplay. I used an 8" x 3-1/8" wacky slimline stitched die to cut the card front and mounted it onto pink cardstock with an 1/8" border then mounted this onto a slimline card base of white cardstock. 

I created the sentiment on my computer using MS-Publisher, printed, and trimmed it then added a pink mat. I adhered the circles using liquid glue then adhered the two gnomes using double-sided adhesive foam tape. 

Thank you for stopping by today! These cute stamps are fun and easy to color. Perfect cards, scrapbooks, gift tags, treat boxes, and more! Hope you give it a try. 

Have a wonderful day! ~Betty~

This is The Valentine Way!

Hello Crafty Friends! It's Laurie here! I am sharing my This is The Valentine Way! using Rebel Baby by Paper Nest Dolls for my Design Team Inspiration Card. I just wanted to show how versatile the Paper Nest Dolls stamps are by making a Valentine card with this cutie!

The Details of My Card

When I was out shopping the other day, I saw some Baby Yoda Valentine cards for children to hand out. I had a light bulb moment that I could create my own Valentine with Baby Rebel!

For my card, I decided that I wanted it to be a traditional Valentine card with lots of hearts and pinks/reds/whites. I love the bright colours of the Doodlebug paper! So, perfect for a Valentine card! I thought it would be fun to place a red glimmer Valentine heart in his hand to give to you! Since he is a galaxy baby, I pulled in some stars but went with glimmery red and pink to match my colour scheme. A scattering of red rhinestones adds a bit more sparkle to this fun Valentine!

Love Train by Noelene

 Hi all, Noelene back to share some D.T inspiration today using a sweet stamp set from the Paper Nest Dolls.

Have you started your Valentine's Day cards or are you like me & left them to the last minute? Well it's not too late to start! 

Today I am sharing a box card I made using the super cute new set from the Paper Nest Dolls called Love Train.

Firstly I coloured my images with copics then fussy cut them. I do not own any box card dies so I created the card base from scratch. Bet you can't guess what's on my wish list now haha!!! Note I created the base of my card first before I printed my images so that I made sure they fit onto my card. Then it was just a matter of sticking everything in place & adding some strips of acetate to stick my hearts onto so that they look like they are floating up in the air.

Copics:

Skin: E0000, E000, E00, E11, R20

Hair: E40, E43, E44, E47, E49

Pink: RV00, RV02, RV04, RV08, R00, R81, R83, R85, R89

Grey: N0, N2, N3, N4, N5, N7, N9

Blue: BG11, BG13, BG15, BG18

Green: G00, G02, G03, G05

Red: R24, R27, R29

Yellow: Y00, Y11, Y13, Y18

Love Train is available in digital format here.

Thanks for stopping by!

Love Potion Amara ~ Happy Valentine's Day

Hi PND Fans! It's Betty here today. It's not too late to make a few Valentine's cards! I made this card using a digital stamp called Love Potion Amara from the Love Potion stamp set from Paper Nest Dolls. So cute and simple to print and color! Add this to digital printable papers and you can make this card in no time! 

I first printed the image at 3-3/4" tall and colored it with Copic markers. I then used an oval stitched die to cut it out. I used Distress Ink in Black Soot to ink the edges.

Copic Markers Used:

Skin: E13, E11, E21, E00, E000

Cheeks: R20

Hair: E39, YR24, YR23, YR20

White: C5, C3, C1, 0

Blue Green: BG13, BG11, BG10

Pink: RV14, RV13, RV11

Blue (glass): B01, BG000

Goggles (glass): B00

I used free digital pattered paper that I found on Freepik. It was Designed by macrovector / Freepik. I imported the image to Microsoft Publisher and added the Happy Valentine's Day sentiment. I printed it 6" x 6" then trimmed it down to 5.5" x 5.5" I added a black cardstock mat behind it, leaving an 1/8" border. Then I placed it on the 6" x 6" card base. 

I added a strip of black cardstock at the bottom of the card where I used an older Martha Stewart border punch to create the edge. I adhered Love Potion Amara onto the card using double-sided adhesive foam tape. To finish the card, I added a few enamel dots. 

Thank you for stopping by. I hope you give this a try! Have a wonderful and creative day. ~Betty~

Will You Be My Valentine Viking?

Hello Crafty Friends! It's Laurie here! I am sharing my Will You Be My Valentine Viking? for my Design Team Inspiration for Paper Nest Dolls. I used Viking Andrew with mustache ties from the Viking Bundle. This bundle has three characters and two animals - Viking Andrew (with and without the mustache ties), Viking Owen, Viking Dragon, and Viking Boar.

The Details of my Card

I had so much fun colouring with my Copic markers this brawny guy in appropriate Viking colours! His colouring even matches another card called My Let’s Go A-Viking Card that I made for Paper Nest Dolls for their New Year’s Day Event. They would make a perfect pair!

For my card, I found some neat digital paper with Viking watercolour images that suited my theme. The Viking ships in the bottom panel were from an invitation in the digital package, and I just cropped it to include only the ships. I then had a choice of which ship to highlight and went with the red/white sail one to match my reds.

Since I plan to give this card to my Hubby, I kept the embellishments minimal with several die-cut hearts for my Valentine theme and a scattering of red rhinestones. I love how the Viking chipboard accents highlight the fun sentiment that I punch out with heart punches.
