Happy Wednesday everyone… It’s Holly here today! I’ve got a Fun card featuring an Adorable unicorn from Stampingbella and some rainbow paper from Doodlebug Designs. The sentiment is from the Unicorn Sentiments set and the Unicorn is from Stampingbella set of 4 unicorns set.

I created a top folding card base and I added a piece of the Rainbow paper from the Doodlebug Fairy Tales 6×6 paper pad. I die cut a piece of Neenah Solar white using the stitched rectangle from the MFT Blueprints #29 and the MFT Rectangle Peek a Boo window. Then I added another piece of the Same Doodlebug paper behind it. I attached the panel to the card base with some Fun Foam.

I stamped the unicorn image onto some Neenah Solar White with Lawn Fawn’s Jet Black ink and then I colored it in with Copics. I fussy cut the image out and adhered it inside the window with some foam tape. The butterfly was glued directly to the background paper with some liquid glue. I die cut a banner from some Yellow cardstock using the MFT Stitched Sentiment Strips. I stamped the sentiment in VersaFine Black ink. For a little sparkle, I added some mixed Sparkling Clear Sequins from Pretty Pink Posh.

Thanks for stopping by today!!

Hi everyone.. I hope you are having a great start to your week so far. Today I have a Fun Birthday card for you featuring the new Balloon Duo Stencil from Neat & Tangled and the Happy for you Stamp and Die set from Pink & Main.

I started with a piece of Bristol paper and I added the Balloons with the stencils and Picked Raspberry Distress Ink. I used a mini ink blending tool and different levels of pressure to get different shades of ink. Then I added some splatters of water and dabbed off the excess with a paper towel. Once the panel was dry I added some splatters of Black Soot Distress Paint. Then I die cut the piece with a Large Stitched Rectangle die and adhered it to a Black card base.

I die cut the Happy sentiment from some additional Bristol paper. I cut the outline and then three of the Happy’s out. I added some Picked Raspberry to one of the Happy’s and created the distressed look with some more water splatters. I adhered the three Happy’s together and then I adhered them to the larger Happy outline. I adhered it to the front of the card. I stamped the Birthday sentiment in VersaFine Black ink onto some White paper and trimmed it out, I added it over the Y in the Happy with some glue. For a touch of Sparkle, I added some Mixed Sparkling Clear Sequins from Pretty Pink Posh.

I’m sorry about the delay in my video from Last week’s post. I have a really old computer and sometimes it doesn’t like to cooperate with the iMovie software. I’ve attached it below and you can also watch it over on the MarkerPop YouTube channel.
