Spread Kindness ~ Have A Magical Birthday

Hello!  Today I'll be sharing another card that I've made using the 3 images from the new Spread Kindness collection from Stacey Yacula, which is now available at Purple Onion Designs.

Have you seen the new collection already?  If not, it's time to hop over to the blog and website to take a look! (:  Spread Kindness collection is a tad different from the past collections as it offers traditional images and florals plus the usual lovable critters.  The traditional images can be used on it's own and also can be pair up together with the lovable critters.

And here is my card for today's blog post (:

Have A Magical Birthday


I stamped Flynt and Goldie with Memento ink in Black Tuxedo and coloured them with my favourite Copic markers.  The background, with the dreamy colours of bubbles, is created using various colours of distress inks and the stencil, basic shapes - Circles from My Favorite Things.  I recently discovered how versatile and easy it is to use stencils to create a background, it's really fun!

I wanted a whimsical feel to the card and so I added some puffy clouds using the Puffy Clouds border from Lawn Fawn to the top and bottom of the card to also give it a bit of dimension.

Lastly, I picked some sequins of my favourite colours and added them near the corners of the card.

I hope you like this fun, magical and fairly easy-to-make card that I've shared today!  Remember, the bundle sales is still on till Friday 22 June.  Be sure to check here for more details of the offers and savings!

Remember to spread some kindness today and I wish you a great week ahead! (;

Spread Kindness

Hello!  I have great news to share!

Today is the day of the spring stamp release ~ Spread Kindness, illustrated by the very talented Stacey Yacula.  They are now available at Purple Onion Designs!

Spread Kindness consists of two distinctive stamp styles that work perfectly when mixed together.  The larger sized stamps are also ideal to be used on their own.  It's an amazing collection that you can come up with many varieties of cards and projects!  

There are also two new sets of sentiments that coordinates with Spread Kindness collection.  Essential Thoughts, which is a new addition to the Essential sentiments series and Kindness sentiment set (which I really love!) consisting of 17 large sized sentiments in two different fonts. 

And here is a card I made using some of the new from Spread Kindness.

May All Your Dreams Come True

Eve is one my favourite stamp from the Spread Kindness collection as she makes me think of sweet dreams in a good night's sleep.  Therefore, I matched the sentiment of "May All Your Dreams Come True" for the card.

The dreamy night clouds background was created using the Mini Cloud stencil from My Favorite Things and a light blend of distress ink in Chipped Sapphire with the ink blender.  I coloured Eve and Twinkling Stars with Copic markers.

To replicate the stars in the night sky, I added some clear and blue sequins, and blue stars for that extra shine.

From today until Friday, 22 June 2018, you will be able to purchase the Spread Kindness collection, with an option of 3 different bundles to choose from.
I hope you like the card I've shared today and I hope you can check back in a couple of days' time as I'll be sharing another card created using another few stamps from Spread Kindness.
