Hi friends. Vera here. I recently went through my stamp collection and upon seeing this Blooming Shelves set, I am reminded that I haven’t shown this beautiful set much love. So, to correct this, today I am showcasing this fun set and by using this set I am also reminded how I really haven’t used my Copic as much as I used to. This image pretty much cover the whole front of the card. I simply stamped the image and then went t town coloring with with Copic markers. Once done, die cut the image with Blooming Shelves Coordinating dies. Adhere to card base and stamp the sentiment. However, once ..read more

Hello everyone! Hope you’re having a great week so far! It’s TaeEun here today with a stenciled hibiscus postcard! Like my last card I shared here on Saturday, I once again used layering stencils without the coordinating outline stamp.

I stenciled the first layer in Lemon Drop, the second layer in Amber Citrine and Peach Blossom, and the third layer in Coralline hybr ..read more

Hello, everyone! Hope you’re having a lovely weekend! It’s TaeEun here today with a stenciled hibiscus card. I used the Climbing Hibiscus layering stencils to create my card. There is a coordinating outline stamp called Coming Up Hibiscus. However, I didn’t use it to give my card a no-line coloring look. You can achieve this easily using the layering stencils ! To start, I first cut white cardstock using the Climbing Hibiscus coordinating die. I placed it on the Grip Mat and began stenciling. It’s much easier to align the stencils, if you have the shape already cut. I stenciled the center of ..read more
