Jane’s Doodles – Warm Hugs Release Hop

Card tutorial 2 Minutes

Hey friends! I am SO EXCITED to be apart of the Jane’s Doodles release hop for the adorable Warm Hugs set. Today I have a fun slimline card to share with you for a little inspiration.

I wasn’t sure if I was going to create a slimline card or an A2 size card with a tag so I just started by stamping a bunch of the images from the set. I did a little masking to add things to the bike and skateboard with those cute critters! I colored them all with my copic markers and used the scan-n-cut to cut them all out.

After playing with the images a bit I obviously landed on a slimline card. So the next step was inking up my background layers. The sky is blueprint sketch and tumbled glass. The dirt mound is gathered twigs, the grass is evergreen bough and shabby shutters, while the front dirt path is tea dye and gathered twigs. After inking the panels I used Trinity Stamps slimline dies to cut the borders.

I adhered dirt mound with foam tape, then the grass to that with liquid glue. Finally I added the front dirt road with another layer of foam tape. All of the images were then adhered with a combination of foam squares and liquid adhesive. To add little details to the sky and ground, I pulled out Sky’s the Limit and used a cloud with white pigment ink in the sky. Then I came in with a leaf from Warm Hugs and stamped some in brown on the ground.

I popped the whole card in my MISTI and stamped a sentiment in an open area in the sky and moved on to finishing touches. I kept those simple for this card because the scene is busy. I used glossy accents on the critter noses, pumpkin stems and various other small parts of the images.

  3. Hi, Amanda – Your name is new to me, but clearly from your DT list and your obvious talent, it should not be. Have I been under a rock? Speaking of rocks, YOUR CARD ROCKS!! I love the scene, the layout, the colors — just love it all! TFS!!! I’m buying this set from Jane while she’s having a sale.

  9. Your card looks so great with 3 levels of ground, and all of those trees. This is the first time I have ever heard of this stamp company, and I am SO GLAD that I am doing this blog hop so I will be aware from now on. I LOVE the style!
