Cards By Ducky

To create this card, I used Spellbinders Glimmer Poinsettia Hot Foil and Die Set . I used my Glimmer Hot Foil System to add Spellbinders Aura Glimmer Foil to the poinsettia on cardstock from Concord & 9th. I then used my die cutting machine to cut out each layer and glued it together using Bearly Art Precision Craft Glue . For the center, I used an embellishment from Trinity Stamp's Gold Eclipse .  To create the leaves, I used the leaf from Spellbinders Layered Poinsettia Etched Die Set and a leaf from The Greetery's Pine Wisp Die Set . I glued the die cuts onto a sheet of Neenah Solar White 80# Cardstock cut to 5.5" by 3.75" and stamped a sentiment from Simon Says Stamp's The Magic of Christmas Stamp Set  with VersaFine Onyx Black Ink . I then glued the card front onto a card base made from the same colored cardstock as the poinsettia. The colors used are listed below. I cut a strip of Tonic Inca Gold Mirror Cardstock to glue to the bottom of the card f...

  I actually started these cards last year and I had intended on making a set that had all snowflakes but my dogs got ahold of the rest of my snowflakes so I decided to create more of a variety. These cards use Ranger's Perfect Pearls which is a metallic pigment powder to make sparkly snowflake backgrounds.  To make the backgrounds, I used snowflakes from  Gina K Designs Sparkling Snowflakes and  Colorado Craft Company Big & Bold Nordic Snowflake . I used my Embossing Magic Powder Bag so that the Perfect Pearls only stuck where I stamped and then I stamped the background using VersaMark Ink . I then put Perfect Pearls on the card front and used a paint brush to spread the pigment powder around. I took a lint free cloth to wipe off the excess powder. The colors used for each are listed below.  For the sentiment for each card, I used a stamp from  Colorado Craft Company Lovely Legs Bethlehem's Light stamped with VersaMark Ink and embos...

  I went out of my comfort zone and decided to practice my Copic Coloring. I created these cards using the All the Dots 6"x6" Petite Paper Pack from Lawn Fawn. I cut down each sheet of paper to a 4" by 4" square and then cut the square in half to create triangles. I then cut multiple sheets of Neenah Solar White 110# Cardstock to 4" by 5.25" sheets. Onto each sheet, I stamped a dinosaur from Whimsy Stamp's  Roar Stomp Chomp Stamp Set and  Roar A Saur Stamp Set with  Honey Bee Stamp's Intense Black Ink  as this ink is Copic friendly. I stamped a sentiment from Lawn Fawn's Rawrsome Stamp Set .  I'm not good at shading so I looked at the pictures on Whimsy Stamp's website to figure out the shading for each dinosaur. The colors for each dinosaur are listed below. Once I had each dinosaur colored, I glued the patterned paper onto the white card front and glued the entire card front onto an A2 card base made from Papertrey Ink Cardstock ....

I made these flowers a long time ago but I wasn't sure what I wanted to do with them. To make the flowers, I used Distress Oxide Sprays  to color sheets of similar colored cardstock from my stash. Because I made these so long ago, I don't remember the exact colors used. Once the cardstock was dry, I made the Hibiscus's using Lawn Fawn's Happy Hibiscus Die Cuts . I cut another large leaf from Lawn Fawn's Tropical Leaf Die Set . I then die cut my leftover green sheets from Paper Rose's Palm Leaf Frame  to fill up the rest of the background.  Once all the die cutting was complete, I messed around with where to place the die cuts until I found a layout I liked and glued them down. I picked a sentiment from Altenew's Sentiment Strip 3 Stamp Set and placed it towards the top of the card. Finally, I added embellishments from Trinity Stamps .
