Haunting Ghost featuring Memory Box

 Hello everyone! It’s Theary here back on the blog. I can’t believe that it’s almost Halloween! I felt that this year had flown by so fast.

For the card today I am sharing a spooky cute card design using 94692 Haunting Ghosts.

The Fall Cornucopia release has a lot of yummy new cardstock. I couldn’t resist not using the array of colors on my card design. For the haunting ghosts, I died-cut each one out of the cardstocks in the colors SH44008 Deep Turquoise, SH44019 Golden Wheat, SH44017 Orange Peel, SH44016 Raspberry Sorbet, and SH44013 Lavender Bloom. I added cute little googly eyes to each one.

The background was created using EF1033 Spiral Delight 3D Embossing Folder. I used white cardstock and ran that through my cutting machine.

The sentiment CL5284D Magical Halloween Clear Stamp and Dies was stamped onto white cardstock using clear embossing ink. I later heat-set a coat of clear embossing powder over the inked sentiment and used the coordinating dies to cut that out.

I adhered the spiral-embossed cardstock over a black matted cardstock. I then randomly adhered the haunting ghosts onto the card panel. I then popped on the sentiment using foam squares to the bottom left-hand corner.

And finally, I adhered to a top folding card base.

That completes the card! I hope you enjoyed the tutorial and got crafty! Until next time!

Layering Festive Santa featuring Memory Box

Hello! I can't believe it's almost September. Although I will miss the summer months, I am super excited about the upcoming fall and winter seasons. 

I am sharing a Christmas-inspired card using fantastic products from The Yuletide Collection.

The Layered Festive Santa 94823 has so many details. I used the die and ran that through my die-cutting machine on red and white cardstock. To add extra details to each layer, I used markers, ink pads, a blending brush, and a white gel pen to build dimension with shading and highlights. I also added the adorable Pretty Presents 94761 into Santa's bag. 

I created the background using Narrow Woodgrain Planks 94823 and die-cut from a few pattern papers from Yuletide Plaid PP1031. I added adhesive to the back and adhered it to scratch paper that I trimmed to 5.25 inches by 4 inches.

I adhered the pattern-planked background to a kraft-colored cardstock and popped on sweet Santa on top with a sentiment from Memory Box holiday foil tabs. And finally, I adhered it to a top folding card base. 

I hope you found some inspiration and get crafty in your craft space! Until next time!

Have a wonderful day!

Gladiola Blossom and Leaves Featuring Memory Box

 Hello there, It's Theary here. I'm back on the blog. Today, I want to share a card I created for a dear friend using the beautiful Gladiola Blossom and Leaves dies. 

I die-cut 94795 Gladiola Blossom and Leaves and 94793 Gladiola Floral Duo using blue and green cardstock. I then blended inks in blue, green, and purple to the die-cut pieces' edges. 

Then, using 94672 A2 Rectangle Frames Die Set, I cut a piece of white colored cardstock and adhered it to a sheet of patterned paper from PP1027 Gladiola Plaid 6x6 pack that I trimmed down to 4.25 by 5.50 inches. 

I adhered the Gladiola Blossom and Leaves onto the bottom portion of the card panel using liquid adhesive and foam squares.  

For the sentiment, I love using ST005 Thank You Foil Greetings Black Tabs for an easy add-on. I also added 94659 Friend Daily Script that I die-cut out of SH44004 Glossy Black Paper. 

I used a white gel pen throughout the card panel to give it extra highlights and details. 

To finish, I popped it onto a top folding card base and added Gem102 Winter Fantasy Fairy Gemstones. 

And that is it! I hope you found some inspiration and get crafty in your craft space. Until next time!!

Have a wonderful day,

Just Beacause Featuring Memory Box Co.

 Hello there! Welcome back to the blog! My name is Theary, and I am sharing a super easy card I created using some products from the Memory Box Co. Gracious Floral collection.

If you're not big on coloring, this is perfect! It is easier than coloring because all the work is done with inks and layering stencils with coordinating stamps and dies.

I began by stamping out the Gracious Floral CL5280 onto white-colored cardstock. Then, using several colors of distress oxide inks with a blending brush, I inked each layered stencil individually.

I used Gracious Floral Dies CL5280D along with the Gracious Floral 3D Embossing folder EF1026 to give the image more dimension and ran that through my die-cutting machine. I love how much interest this gives to the blended florals.

I adhered it onto a background I created using Marvelous Magnolia 3D Embossing Folder and Cutting Dies EF1035.

The sentiment was also from Gracious Floral, which I stamped out in brown colored ink and adhered to the panel.

I hope you found some inspiration! And I hope to see you next time.

Have a wonderfully blessed day,
Theary Chea

Sea You Soon ft. Trinity Stamps

Hello, thank you so much for joining me. Today, I want to share a one-layered card I created using some fantastic products from Trinity Stamps. 

I started with a fresh cardstock panel that I trimmed down to 4.25" by 5.50". I like using alcohol-friendly cardstock such as Neenah Solar White because it's very smooth, which makes Copic coloring a breeze. When creating a one-layered card, I want to map out the placement of the selected stamps before I stamp it on the main card panel. Doing this will give me a better visual of the exact placement. 

Going in with the adorable Sea You Soon stamp from Trinity Stamps; I stamped the image first on my card panel using alcohol-friendly ink. My favorite is Memento because it's fast drying and doesn't smear. I also stamped that same image onto masking paper. This adorable image will be the primary image in my foreground. So, when using the masking technique, everything that's stamped will look like it's in the background. 

After placing the masking paper over the mermaid, I started stamping all the other images. I did the same thing and masked each image with masking paper. I then went in with Trinity Stamp-Moon Layers stencil and added that onto the upper right-hand corner. I love how easy this is to create a realistic moon. It took less than 3 minutes!

Now that everything is masked off, I went in with the amazing Blending Buddy from Trinity Stamps and inked blend a background scene in the open areas. I like using these brushes because they fit comfortably in the hands and blend ink onto cardstock like a dream! 

I sprayed a sparkle spray over the sea to add some shimmer and shine. As well as added a few stamped images using the Sea Life Silhouettes stamp set from Trinity Stamps. 

I used Trinity Stamps-October Night Sky stencil to create the clouds in the scene. I know this is a Halloween-themed stencil, but I like to stretch out my supplies and get the most out of it all. 

After removing the masking paper, I used Copic markers to color all the opened images. I then added white paint to give the sea some life and texture. The sentiment was heat embossed using WOW! Embossing Powder in the color Opaque Bright White. 

And that is it! I hope you enjoyed the card, and I hope to see you next time! Please visit me on YouTube and Instagram, where I share videos, cards, and reels. 

Have a wonderfully blessed day!

Hugs With Backyard Wren From Memory Box Co.

Hello again! 

It's Theary here, and I am so happy to be on the blog again. Today, I want to share a card I created using the amazing Backyard Wren die from the Memory Box's Magnolia Collection. 

I died cut the Backyard Wren out of white colored cardstock and used my blending brushes with Catherine Pooler Inks in the shades Rouge, Orange Peel, and Buttercream. I adhered all of the pieces together with liquid adhesive and foam squares. Using Autumn Fairy Jewels, I added a black jewel for the wren's eye. I also cut Curved Magnolia Branch out of white cardstock and inked blended that using my blending brushes and distress oxide inks. 

Using a kraft-colored cardstock, I embossed the beautiful 3D 3mbossing folder called Magnolia Blooms and ran a white ink pad over the raised edges of the embossed area. I cut Curved Cap Pinpoint Layers out of the gorgeous Magnolia Plaid Paper Pad and placed that in the center of the kraft cardstock. 

I then assembled the Backyard Wren, Curved Magnolia Branches, and the sentiment Hugs Tender Script on the card front. 

And that completes the card! I hope you found some inspiration and got crafty in your craft room. Until next time!

Have a wonderfully blessed day!

Sending Love with Magnolia Blossoms from Memory Box Co.

Hello there! Today, I am sharing a card I created using fantastic products from the Magnolia collection by Memory Box Co.

I started by die-cutting Magnolia Leaf Branch and Magnolia Blossom Trio from white-colored card stocks. I then used distress oxide inks in the colors: Worn Lipstick, Spun Sugar, Picked Raspberry, Rustic Wilderness, and Twisted Citron and blended that onto the die-cut pieces using a blending brush. I also went in with a few colored pencils to create more interest in the die-cut pieces.

I used Magnolia Blooms 3D Embossing Folder and Cutting Dies to create the background and embossed that onto Woodgrain Paper in the color cream. I also trimmed it down to 4 inches by 5.25 inches. I love how the embossed image looks with the woodgrain paper. It gives a subtle interest to the entire card design.

I adhered everything onto the front of the card panel using a mixture of liquid adhesive and foam squares. And for the sentiment, I used Sending Love Daily Script and cut that out of glossy black paper for a lovely glossy finish. I also layered the shadow die cut three times for some added dimension. 

To finish the card, I adhered it to a piece of pattern paper from a Magnolia Plaid paper pad that I cut about 1/8” larger than my card front. And finally, I added a few embellishments from Winter Fantasy Fairy Gemstones. 

And that completes my card! I hope you enjoy and find some inspiration to get crafty in your craft space. Until next time!

 

Have a wonderfully blessed day,
