Happy Release Day to Trinity Stamps!!! It’s Trinity’s third birthday and this release is absolutely packed full of SO MANY amazing products! Today I’m sharing a project with one of my very favorites from the release, plus a new slimline die and paper pad!
The stamp set is called Oh Snap! and I heat embossed the images on watercolor paper and colored them with my Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers. Then I used the coordinating dies to cut them all out. Aren’t they all just too cute?!?
Next, I trimmed down a piece of rainbow striped paper from the new paper pad and adhered it to a white slimline card base. Then I die cut a piece of vellum with the new Slimline Dainty Scallop Edge die. I added foam squares to the back of my images and adhered them to the vellum, then I hid tape runner behind them to adhere the vellum panel to my rainbow stripes.
Next, I stamped and heat embossed a sentiment on black cardstock and used the Slimline Scalloped Panels and Banners die to cut it out. I adhered it with foam squares too. Last, I added a scattering of boiled sugar jelly drop hearts around the design.
There are too many fun sentiments in this stamp set to leave the inside of the card blank, so I chose one and stamped it in purple ink. Then I added a fun bird from the set standing on top of it in yellow.
I absolutely cannot wait to share this card with someone. It is so much fun and so adorable!
Head over to Instagram today and hop along with us for more inspiration and comment on the stops for a chance to win!
Happy Thursday everyone! I’m sharing a fun mini slimline card featuring some stamps and stencil from Miss Ink Stamps today, along with Trinity Stamps mini slimline dies.
First, I used my stamps and dies to decide on a general layout and then stamped my pig and flower from Punny Farm Pigs and colored them with copic markers. I used the coordinating dies to cut them out and set them aside to work on stenciling.
I used the Oopsy Daisy stencil with a raspberry ink on white cardstock, then went over the whole thing with a light yellow ink and a blending brush. I die cut the panel with a mini modern embossed slimline die and the circle window die that comes in the same set. Then I die cut another white piece with the largest clean and simple mini slimline panel die and inked it up with the same yellow.
I added scrappy tape to the back of the window panel and adhered acetate to it. Then I lined it with foam strips to create my shaker pocket. I sprinkled some dazzle butterflies to the yellow panel, removed the release paper and put the window panel in place.
I added foam squares to the back of my pig and adhered him down next. With a dab of liquid glue I added his flower. For the sentiment, I stamped it in the same raspberry ink as the stenciling and trimmed it into a strip. Then I popped it up with foam strips as well.
For finishing touches, I added black glaze pen to the pig’s eyes and glossy accents to the flower’s center. I also created a sweet purple polka dot envelope for my card to fit in that comes in the original mini slimline die set from Trinity Stamps.
Hey friends! I’m over on the Trinity Stamps blog today, sharing a sneak peek of the upcoming release! It’s absolutely packed full of adorable and amazing products! Be sure to watch the other design team members all week for other sneak peeks and head to Instagram and YouTube on Friday for hops with even more inspiration and prizes up for grabs!
Is this shaped tea cup card not the sweetest thing?!? I fell in love as soon as I saw it! Then, pairing it with new Buttercup Blossoms stamps to create a decorated cup takes me back to the days of tea parties with my daughter. So much fun!
To create this card, I die cut the elements of the Trini-tea Cup die set from pink and brown cardstock and used my blending brushes to add some dimension to various accents. Then I used liquid glue to adhere the pieces. Next, I stamped, colored and die cut a few images from Buttercup Blossoms and inked them up with the same pink ink to help them blend in with my cup. I adhered them with liquid glue and trimmed off the excess.
Last, I stamped and heat embossed a sentiment from Buttercup Blossoms and die cut it with a banner from Slimline Scalloped Panels and Banners. I hid a little tape runner behind the words and adhered it to my cup.
I can’t wait for you to see the rest of the release so stay tuned for Friday when it all goes live for purchase!
Hey everyone! I’m over on the Newton’s Nook blog with a super sweet birthday card for the gnome lover in your life. I know I have plenty of those in mine!
Isn’t this guy just the cutest in his little garden?!? I used Gnome Garden and Daffodils stamps sets for the images today. Then I stenciled a blue panel with white pigment ink and the cloudy sky stencil, and die cut it with the rounded rectangle from Frames & Flags.
I also used the same rectangle to die cut a green scrap and make some grass with the Land Borders die. Then I die cut a cute white picket fence with the Fence die. I used tape runner to adhere all these layers together. At this point I stamped my sentiment in the upper right corner.
I die cut a dark blue scalloped rectangle from the Frames & Flags die set and wrapped some cool ribbon around it. I added the rounded rectangle with foam tape on top. Then I glued the daffodils down to my scene and popped the other images up with foam squares.
I ink blended a white panel with candied apple distress oxide ink and spritzed it with water. I used liquid glue to adhere it to a white card base and popped the blue panel up with foam tape on that.
Moving on to finishing touches, I added some white gel pen accents to the images and star dust Stickles to the butterfly wings.
Hello everyone! I’m over on the Coffee Loving Cardmakers blog today with a super fun sneak peek of the upcoming Trinity Stamps release! Trust me when I tell you that it’s TEA-rrific!!! You’re going to love it all!
Today I did a little rainbow ink smooshing on a panel, then used the Trinity Stamps Shine Brighter stencil – first with transfer gel and decofoil and then iridescent glitz gel for the second layer.
I stamped and colored the image from Creativi-TEA with my copic markers. Then used the coordinating dies to cut it out. I stamped and heat embossed a couple of sentiments from the set and die cut those as well. Isn’t he just the cutest!?!
I die cut the background panel with an embossed edge rectangle and adhered it to a white card base. Then Used an embossed edge circle die to cut an iridescent vellum circle out. I popped my image up with foam squares and hid my tape runner behind that to adhere it to the card front. Last, I popped the sentiments up with foam squares and moved on to finishing touches.
For those, I simply added some glossy accents to various parts like paint on paint brushes and the eyes on the mug.
I had a messy inky blast creating this card and am so excited for you all to see the Trinity Stamps release that goes live on Friday! Head over to Instagram and YouTube to check out the inspiration hops then!
Happy weekend my dear friends!!! I am truly excited to bring you a super fun release with a ton of new and amazing embellishments, along with some new crafty tools too!
I’m going to highlight just a few things here but make sure to head over to the shop because I’m not kidding when I saw there’s a lot…we’re talking over 20 new embellishments plus restocks on some of your favorites!!!
First up though, I want to highlight our new Pressure Pal. This is a fabulous tool to use with even pressure while stamping with any stamp platform. The felt bottom glides across the surface flawlessly. It keeps from friction burns on your hands or the possibility of smearing ink on your shirt sleeve.
Next up, is our Magnetic Tool Cup that coordinates with our single and double-wide platforms. I personally use mine to hold my Spellbinders Tool-in-One and Glimmer Hot Foil handle but it would be great for pens or brushes, anything you would like at your fingertips. It is sized perfectly to fit in the curve of both platform bases. Here it’s shown on the double wide platform base.
Let’s take a look at some of the fun embellishments waiting for you too…
This is seriously the teeniest taste of what we’ve got going on! I’m so excited for all of these new goodies and have so many ideas for crafting with them myself. I hope you’ll head over and check things out!
Happy Friday my friends!!! I’m so glad we’ve made it through another week! And bonus, today I get to share a super fun sneak peek with you of the upcoming June release with Pink & Main. It is absolutely fantastic and I can’t get enough of it!
Check out that fantastic new flamingo from the stamp set Stand Tall coming your way! Oh, and don’t miss that bold and beautiful Aloha die cut with a perfect shadow behind it! That die set is absolutely amazing!
To create my card today, I stamped my flamingo and colored it with copic markers. Then I used the coordinating die to cut it out and set it aside. Next, I die cut the word aloha from black cardstock three times and glued them together with EZ Squeeze liquid adhesive. I die cut the shadow from vellum and glued the two together.
For that fabulous background, I ink blended distress oxides in blueprint sketch, salty ocean and peacock feathers. Then spritzed it with water and let it dry. Once it was completely dry, I ran it though my die cut machine with the basket cover die. This immediately made me think of a shaker card so I cut a piece of acetate and glued it to the back, then lined the edges with foam strips.
I sprinkled in some white primrose confetti bits and sealed it up with a white cardstock backing. Moving on to assembly, I used EZ Squeeze liquid glue to adhere the shaker to a white card base, then also adhere my die cut sentiment and flamingo.
Moving on to finishing touches, I added glossy accents to the flamingo’s beak and Wink of Stella glitter brush pen to his cheek. Then I glued down a scattering of starlight gems in yellow and orange.
Oh, you guys…I really can’t wait for you to see all of the goodness this release holds! Stay tuned to the Pink & Main blog for more sneak peeks from other DT members. It’s all going to be wonderful to see!
I can’t believe the Newton’s Nook June Release reveals are coming to a close today. I hope you love today’s reveals as much as the rest of the week and are super excited for release day tomorrow! We have two new sets to add to your roundabout collection today and they are both wonderful!
BBQ Roundabout
Seashell Roundabout
I really love how these products work so well on their own, with the circle frames dies and the sentiments fit perfectly in the banner trio dies too! It’s a perfect little set giving you tons of ways to play!
I made today’s cards on completely different days and both cards ended up being shakers. It made me giggle when I realized it later on. Aren’t they so fun though?!?
For the BBQ Roundabout card, I pre-die cut the scalloped circle from circle frames and then stamped the image on it. I find it easier to line up my image this way but you could do it the other way around too. Once it was stamped, I colored the whole thing with my copic markers. Then I die cut 2 more scalloped circles – one from acetate and another from red cardstock. With the red one I came back and die cut the next size down stitched circle from the center, leaving me with a frame. I adhered the frame to the acetate and then added foam tape around the edge to create me shaker mechanism. I sprinkled some embellishments on the colored panel and sealed it up with the shaker window.
Moving on to my background, I inked up a white panel with salty ocean and tumbled glass distress oxide inks. Then I layered the petite clouds stencil on top and used a white pigment ink to add those. I removed the stencil and flicked watered down mermaid lagoon distress oxide and white ink all over the panel. While that was drying I die cut a banner from the Banner Trio dies and stamped a sentiment in green ink on it. I folded the banner tails in and glued them down. Then I added foam squares and adhered it to my shaker circle.
When my stenciled panel was dry, I adhered it to a white card base and then adhered my shaker circle to that. This card cracks me up. I love the BBQ theme and the punny sentiment is just perfect!
Now for a little twist on the roundabout idea…turning a circle into a rectangle. What?!?
For this card, I stamped my seashell roundabout and colored it with my copic markers. Then I die cut the reverse scalloped rectangle from the Framework die set and trimmed the colored panel to fit it. I cut a piece of acetate and adhered the frame to it, then I added a double-layer of foam tape to the back, sprinkled some embellishments on the colored panel and sealed it up.
Then I did a little ink smooshing with teal inks to create a background panel. While that was drying I decided to play off the colors I used on the seashells and cut an orange rectangle to separate the frame from the ink smooshed background. Next, I die cut a rounded banner from the Banner Trio set from the same orange cardstock and heat embossed a sentiment on it. I trimmed off one end and glued it under the edge of the shaker frame.
Finally, I stamped and colored Newton’s Seashell from the day 1 reveals and then used the coordinating die to cut him out.
For assembly, I created a teal card base and used tape runner to adhere my ink smooshes panel to it. Then I added the shaker mechanism the same way and finally popped Newton in place with a combination of liquid glue and foam squares so he lays flat.
Finishing things off, I added a little glossy accents to Newton’s nose and the inside of the seashell he’s holding.

Hey friends! I’m back with a fun Miss Ink Stamps caffeinated card to share with you and the sentiment could not be more true!
I started by stamped the Hay Daze background stamp on an extra large panel and blended distress oxide ink from top to bottom in scattered straw, frayed burlap, shabby shutters and ripe persimmon. Then I die cut it with the Trinity Stamps slimline stitched panel die in the middle size. I took the largest size and die cut a brown panel with that.
I stamped the gnomes from coffee gnomes and colored them with my copics. Then I used the scan-n-cut to cut them out. I chose a sentiment from the same set and heat embossed it on black cardstock, trimming it into a strip.
Moving on to assembly, I used liquid glue to adhere the brown panel to a white card base. Then I popped the inked panel up with foam tape. Next, I added foam squares to the gnomes and sentiment and put them in place.
Sometimes these background stamps can be daunting to color but they are really fun to just ink blend over too!
Welcome to the third day of Newton’s Nook June Release reveals! Today we’re getting super furry and loving every minute of it! Let’s check it out!
Beach Barks
Kitten Beach
Aren’t these little furballs all so super cute?!? I love them all! I had so much fun creating today’s cards. I hope you enjoy them too!
For the card I created using Beach Barks, I tried a different look with the Retro Sun & Palms stencil by masking and inking it up like a sun and regular palm trees instead of the silhouette. It wasn’t difficult and looks really cool!
Then I stamped images from Beach Barks and a few supporting shells and such from Kitten Beach to fill in my sand. I used the coordinating dies to cut everything out and added them to my scene with a combination of foam squares and liquid glue. Then I popped the panel in my MISTI and stamped a sentiment in the top right corner.
For finishing touches, I added glossy accents to the pup’s sunglasses, collar and sand dollar. Then I came in wtih some unicorn Stickles on the seashells too.
And if you’re not really a dog person, we’ve got kitties covered today too! With sooooo much cuteness!!!
For this card, I used the Slimline Frames & Portholes die to cut a scalloped rectangle. Then I taped it to the Slimline Masking Circles stencil and inked it up with a teal ink. Leaving that stencil in place, I taped the Waves stencil over it and used more of the same teal ink to create a little texture to my circles. Then I stamped and heat embossed a sentiment in the middle circle.
I stamped my images from Kitten Beach and colored them with my copic markers. I used the coordinating dies to cut them out and added them to my panel with foam squares. Some of the seashells are adhered with liquid glue as well. Next, I trimmed a piece of orange cardstock and adhered it to a white card base, then popped my scalloped panel up with foam tape.
For finishing touches on this sweet card, I added glossy accents to the kitty noses and paws and one seashell. Then I came in with unicorn Stickles on the seashells in the center for a little extra shimmer.
