Heffy Doodle - Elephant of Surprise - SSS - https://goo.gl/fti2xg
Hey there guys!
I thought it was about time that i shared a 'normal' video tutorial with you guys! HAHA! If you are subscribed to my YouTube channel, you will have noticed a change over the last few months where I have been releasing less of the shorter 8-10 minute videos, and my content has been mostly the LIVE crafting sessions. (Which are super fun and you should definitely join in - Fridays at 9pm BST)
But today I have a shorter video which I hope you will all enjoy - one which you may have seen over on the and in the reveal videos too.
For this card I am showcasing the Elephant Of Surprise stamp set from Heffy Doodle, and I am also using a small image from the Interactively Yours stamp set - also from Heffy Doodle.
I start by stamping my cardstock to create a striped background using some Simon Says Stamp fog ink, and then die cut some circles using a SSS circle die. I grabbed some pattern paper, vellum and acetate before stamping and embossing the greeting onto the vellum - which would be inside the shaker window.
I also stick two dies together using some washi tape so I can cut out a frame as well as two pieces of craft foam which have had Stick-It adhesive adhered to both sides - this allows me to build up my shaker panel on the front of the card. I used some sequins from Lucy's Cards - as I ADORE her sequin mixes so much!
The images I stamped using my MISTI and coloured with copic markers. I kept the colouring pretty simple, as I like the cutesy cartoon look that they give. I decided to add the sad little elephant on the front and then surround him with some of the cool accessories in the set.
For the inside of the card, I used the circle that was left over when I die cut my shaker frame - I thought it would be fun to add this to the inside. I also wanted to have an ACTUAL surprise on the inside - and I thought one of those action-wobblers would be perfect....unfortunately, I didn't have any....
...But I am not the kinda girl that lets THAT stand in the way - so I show you in the video how I made my own easy-peasy action wobbler device! OH YEAH!
In case you were wondering, the blue embossing powder is from Cosmic Shimmer - and OH BOY does it shimmer! It has such a gorgeous pearly sheen - its just amazing!
Thank you guys so much for joining me today - please do leave a comment if you get a chance.
