Jack O. Lantern Blended Card

Do you need a quick and easy Halloween card?

Have I got one for you! and I mean EASY!!!

Bunny here with a quick ink blended Jack O. Lantern card.

 The Pumpkin Spice Stamp Set I used the Jack O. Lantern image for the face and the sentiment "oh my gourd!"

There are several sentiments on the set that would work perfectly for this card I just thought that was pretty fun.

Normally I do a lot of layers on a card, but I decided I wanted to try this pretty much one layer card. 

I ink blended, with our Signature Ink Blending Brush using Carved Pumpkin, Ripe Persimmon and Crackling Campfire Distress Oxide Inks, on the largest layer of the Stitch Dot Rectangle Backdrop.

Then stamped the face using Delicata Ink in Black Shimmer and the sentiment from Pumpkin Spice Stamp Set in Jet Black archival.

Added a Black cardstock, Basic Rectangle Backdrop for the base and there you have a quick and cute Halloween card, that would not be hard to mass produce for a classroom of students or for nursing home residents.

Thanks for joining me today, See you in Fort Wayne this weekend for the Toomuchfun Promotions Stamp and Scrapbook Getaway!

June 14th Jillian will be 21!

So June 14th is Jillian's 21st birthday....TWENTY ONE how those years few by!!!

I wanted to make a cute little birthday card for her...
Cute, simple and easy peasy!








I used random paper from my stash! That wood grain was perfect for the bird house!
The stamp for the birdies eyes and beak are actually from the Stamp set we are giving with our Class in Akron. If that show does't happen, we will be selling kits online and doing a Facebook Live to complete the cards!

Also we will be honoring her birthday with a SALE A BRATION!
Just a little secret.... If you use the code now it actually works :)

Coffee Lover's Blog Hop ~ No Words Needed!

Happy Tuesday  everyone! Hope you are all hanging in there safe and healthy

Today I am showing the new Cozy Cup Die Set! It is SOOOO cute!!! Look at those little sugar cubes!

Friday was the start of the Coffee Lover's Blog Hop!!  Check out all the inspiration over on the Coffee Lover's Blog!!!

So today I wanted to use this die set but decided to leave a sentiment off.

Because in these strange times we are in right now, no words are needed, especially mean words which we have been seeing a lot of on social media. That is just not necessary! Yes, everyone has their own opinion and reason they are doing what they feel is right at this time, but no need to shame someone for those actions. We need to spread kindness more than ever right now!!!

We are mainly still working from home as we always have, hoping at some point we can go see my mom who is in an assisted living home. We have been to very few stores, but wear our masks if we have to go in, and are so grateful for curbside grocery pick up.

We hvae exciting news with our warehouse, it is moving UP!  So we closed the store to the public last year, so we only do online and consumer shows now. BUT we are moving the inventory and our AJVD supplies upstairs above the salon. That way when the salon does open, there is no public around our product and it is safe and germ free!

It is QUITE the chore and I think Sam and Jillian for carrying most of it up 2 flight's of stairs ~ not easy on the body for sure!

I decided I wanted my cup to have a little bit of a shadow so I just cut a black set and off set it just a tad. The Black base of the cup (kind of hidden by the spoon) is actually they "tea" layer cut in black as well! added the tea bag, and some of those cute sugar cubes!

Class of 2020

Happy Thursday!

Bunny here, hope this finds you healthy and well!

In these strange times, I wanted to honor those Seniors who are having a heartbreaking year.

Ohio announced that students will still be doing online classes through the end of this school year.

They have worked so hard only to not know their last day in class, was their last day!

Monday we took a drive in our community to see the local football stadium all light up, and scoreboard lit with 20  20. It just hit me so emotionally to think of these kids not able to walk at graduation with their family cheering them on. I pray this makes them all stronger and

hoping the schools can celebrate this awesome class at a later date.

So this card is pretty easy and can be mass produced using any school colors!
It is hard to tell but the light cardstock is gray. Our school district that we live in, their school colors are scarlet and gray as is The Ohio State University. We have friends whose children are graduating this year from both, this card is to honor them.
Isn't that tassel fun?  That is one of the dies in the Grad Cap Tassel Trio die set!
Add a line of Just Glue It along the top of the tassel and roll it with the twine in the center and done!

I just want to say Congratulations to the Class of 2020 everywhere for dealing with such strange times and for showing great adversity!

Hello, Bunny here and today I am showcasing the Daffodil Duo Die Set!
Here is the video Jillian and I did showing how we create a 3D Daffodil, but the possibilities are endless using the petals and center...let us know what type of bloom you create!

So for me it is hard not to layer, layer, layer... but today I decided I was going clean and simple!
Plus with the video I wanted you guys to see how I did the Daffodil and focus on that rather than an elaborate card!
I love this new Thank You Stamp Set...has every type of Thank You you need to create a nice Thank you card! Nice bold typeface that embosses beautifully!
I used Metallic Platinum Wow! Embossing powder for my With Gratitude.

Here is my layer, layer, layer card!  I love laying different textures and shapes. Using the Rustic Wood Slice you get the rustic look of spring and the bold white on white background!

A Jillian Vance Design products used:

Not just for Daffodils! I also used it as a waterlily using a black Mermaid Scales Cover Plate as the background for that tropical but yet Art Deco effect. I just layered 3 of the larger petals and 3 of the smaller ones curled in to create a spiky effect. Then put in on half of a Delightful Daisy Jr mat layer to make the Lily Pad!  The Sentiment die cut is from the Stitched Sentiment Quartet Die Set.

This cute little tag was whipped up to show how the small daffodil coordinates with the Petite Pot and Vase Die Set!  This will probably be a make and take at our Spring Shows!
And those new Stitched Sentiment Quartet Dies...LOVE them!  They are just like the perfect size you are always looking for!
