Hello everyone… I am back today with some quick and easy cards with digital stamps. Let’s take a little break with me, grab your favorite drink and get crafty 🙂

My two coffee themed cards today I created using Hero Arts Digital Stamps from a2z Scrapbooking: DK114 Caffein Fix and DK103 Brush and Splatter. a2z Scrapbooking is one of Coffee Loving Cardmakers Blog Hop Super Sponsors.

When I work with Digital Stamps, I like to use my Silhouette Studio Software. But, any digital photo editing software will work. Even, Word program will work. I resize all the images and sentiments for projects, print them and then work on the projects.

Visit Coffee Loving Cardmakers Blog today to read the steps how I created them. THANK YOU SO MUCH for stopping by my blog today. Have a fabulous caffeinated day!

Hello everyone… I hope you be blessed and find rest in God’s peace this weekend. I know I need a break so I can start fresh next week 🙂

Today, I have a card to share with you that I created wit Graciellie Design Digital Stamp – In Christ Alone. This is a beautiful digital stamp set that you can use to create any encouragement themed paper projects.

I opened the flower file on a image editing software and I resize it to fit in 4″ x 5.25″ cardstock. I printed it with my inkjet printer in black and white. I dried the ink with craft heater (or you can let it dry overnight) before I colored it. I did the same step with the sentiment.

I used ODBD Pierced Rectangles Dies to cut the panel and and ODBD Pierced Squares Dies to cut the sentiment.

Then to do the reverse coloring technique, I used Arteza Woodless Watercolor Pencils and Colorless Tombow Dual Brush Blender Pen. Then I added some glitter on the flower using Spectrum Noir Sparkle Clear Brush Pen.

I added the flower panel on a white card base with adhesive glue, and then I added the sentiment on the card with 3D foam tape. I finished my card with clear circle gems from Pretty Pink Posh that I added them on the card with Dries Clear Adhesive Glue.

Here’s another project I create using the same digital stamp set:

Hello everyone… Today I have a friendship themed card that I would love to share with you. It is a clea-and simple card that is very easy to make 🙂

I created this Hello Friend card using Pink & Blue Watercolored Digital Papers and Friends Like You Digital Stamp from Graciellie Design.

I printed the digital paper on white cardstock and trimmed it down to fit on the front of the top folded card. I added some gold foil at the center of the flowers and some gold dots on the paper using Foil Pen and DecoFoil Gold. Then I added it on the card.

I printed the sentiment on another white cardstock and trimmed it down into sentiment strip. I added it on the card with adhesive.

I finished this card by wrapping it with natural twine ribbon.

This card I sent to a swap friend from January Card Chain Challenge. If you like making cards and also like to send it out, then this challenge is perfect for you. You still have time to sign up for the February Card Chain Challenge that is open until February 6th.

Hello everyone… Today, I am joining Amy at Coffee Loving Cardmakers – Sponsor Solo post that showcasing Craftin Desert Divas. And I am sharing a CAS card, Sending You A Latte Love.

I created my card with the Coffee Put Cutie digital stamp and Fancy Frame Dies from Craftin Desert Divas.

I started with created the base panel. I distressed the edges of the creme cardstock with distresser tool. Then I added it on the white card base. Next, I created the background with some Distress Inks with smooshing technique. After that I cut it out with one of the Fancy Frame Dies. I added some stitching on the card and then after that I added it on the card with strong adhesive.

When you get the digital, you will receive the blank white and black for you to color, and you also will get the one that already colored and ready to print. That’s the one that I used on my card.

First, I open the image on my photo software, resized it, and then I duplicate 3 time. Then I printed it using my inkjet printer on a white cardstock. I fussy cut them one by one 🙂

I added the first image on the card with liquid adhesive. Then, I added the second and third images with 3D foam tape.

For the sentiment, I hand-written it with Tombow Fudenosuke soft brush pen. I added some pink enamel dots on the side of the card.

And… I am inspired by Kerry’s sketch. You can check out her inspiration here.

That’s all my card to share with you… But… Before you go… Amy has a little giveaway… Leave a comment on her blog post HERE for a chance to win a Craftin Desert Diva’s $20 shop credit! Commenting will close on January 14th at 11:59 pm pacific and the winner will be announced on Friday, January 19th. GOOD LUCK!

Hello everyone… Today, I am super excited to share my very first digital card project, Friends Like You as an ambassador to Graciellie Design. Gracie invited me to join her ambassador team last December and it is new crafting adventure to me using digital stamp and paper. So thankful for this opportunity!

On this card, I used the new digital stamp, Friends Like You, and the new digital paper collection, Pink & Blue Watercolored Papers.

There are several ways to work with digital stamps and papers. You can simply use Word Document, or anything similar to that program. Also, you can use any of your digital cutting software designer, such as Silhouette Studio or Cricut.

I use my Silhouette Studio software, which you can download here for the free basic software and install on your computer or laptop.

I open the png files from the Friends Like You on the Silhouette Studio working place, arrange them, and resize them. And then print them with my Cannon printer in black and white setting. I let them dried overnight before color them becuase it is an inkjet printer. You also can use craft heater to dry the ink when you want to work faster 🙂

To create the 3D look flower, first I colored the 3 flowers with the 4 blue shades from The Spectrum Noir Blendable Pencils – The Primaries set. After that, I fussy cut them in 2 sizes. First size is the small size for the center of the flower, and then the medium size for the middle. I leave the last flower in the original size as the base.

Using my curling tool, I shape them. Then I used Art Glitter Dries Clear to stacked them together.

I added some gems in the middle of the flower for extra bling 🙂

As for the sentiment, I printed them on a textured white cardstock, and cut it using one of the We R Memory Keepers rectangle scallop dies.

I printed the on of the Pink & Blue Watercolored Papers on a white printing paper, trimmed it and added it on a white cardstock. I would print directly on white cardstock next time 🙂

I added a dark grey cardstock as a mat on the white card base, then added the digital paper mat on it with 3d foam tape.

After that I added the sentiment label and flower on the card with permanent strong adhesive glue. I finished my card with some white sequins for more bling on it.

I totally enjoy working with Graciellie Design digital stamps and papers. She has beautiful digital collections at her store, especially you want to check the new Valentine’s Day theme sets!

My hope is that you are inspired to continue creating and share the joy and love with others through your handmade cards. Thank you so much for visiting me today and may you all have a fabulous day!
