Pig Out! The Diet Starts Tomorrow

 

Hey there, Tea Timers!!  It's Amanda back today with a clean and simple, but OH SO ADORBS card using the Workout Pigs Stamp Set!  

BONUS!  This set is on sale now!!  Grab yours before the run out!

This card is SUPER simple to make and doesn't require any special dies!

First, I've cut 2 panels that measure 3 3/4" x 2 3/8".  I've blended a bit of Catherine Pooler Shea Butter ink on the background. 

Next, I stamped my sentiments directly onto the panels.

On a separate piece of alcohol marker friendly white cardstock, I stamped my images from the Workout Pigs Stamp Set.  I colored them with Copic markers and then die cut them out with the coordinating dies.  I attached them to the panel with 3D foam squares.

A super simple and easy card that is just too cute! 

Thanks for stopping by the Time for Tea Designs blog today!  I hope you enjoyed this card and feel inspired to make something fun today!

Xx, Amanda

Sending Bear Hugs

 

Happy Friday, DT Annalisa here. Spring is in the air, and I am sharing a clean and simple card (CAS) featuring several dies and stamps. I don't create CAS cards often, as I really struggle with this type of card because I can't seem to stop myself from adding so many things!

Before I get into how I made the card, I wanted to let you know about the Spring Sale that is on now until Wednesday, March 31st at midnight. You will get 30% off on a selection of dies when you use the code HOPPYSPRING21 at check out. But wait, there is more, there is a free Easter Basket Digi Stamp Collection that is perfect for your Easter cards!

I stamped the bears from the Bearing Gifts stamp set, die-cut them with the coordinating dies, and then coloured them with my Copics. I also stamped and cut out the sentiment. Next, I die cut the Wavy Hello Sentiment Die (which is on sale!) several times from some white card stock and adhered them together with liquid glue to add some dimension. 

For the background panel, I applied some Distress Oxides (Spun Sugar, Shaded Lilac, Tumbled Glass, Cracked Pistachio) on some heavyweight card stock using my Beautiful Blender Brush. I then added some splatter using water, white paint and Shaded Lilac. Once dry, I used the Dotty Hearts Panel Die on the coloured background. I trimmed off the top and bottom and adhered it to a white card base. I just love the dotted hearts that this die creates!

I assembled the card by gluing down the bears, the hello, and finally the 'sending you bear hugs' sentiment using liquid glue. To complete the card, I added a little heart that was die-cut out of silver paper that I had in my stash. I often die-cut several small hearts out of different types of card stock so they are ready to use.

Quick Clean and Simple Card using your Stash

 

Do you have lots of coloured images that you just haven't used yet? Or backgrounds that you've created that you've not put on a project? I know I do. Today's card can be adapted to any of your images and backgrounds to make a quick, clean and simple card.

Please check out the video below to see how easily this card came together.

The images I used were coloured during a Facebook Live on Thursday evening. I also stamped and heat embossed my Plaid rug. I used a emboss resist technique to add my colour and then cut to size.

Why not try using a stamped or ink blended background you have in your stash, cut it down and add some of your cute critters?

I added a simple sentiment to the card base in Versafine Ink and some pretty sequins.

My bears had been water coloured using Arteza Water Brush Markers and I added Stickles to the donut glaze and Glossy Accents to the juice bottle.

If you would like to see the process of colouring my little bears and how I created the Plaid rug you can watch the Live replay of the Facebook Live on YouTube below,

or our Facebook page.

I hope you like todays' project. Be sure to follow the Blog and our Social Media for more projects in the future.

Rainbow Sympathy CAS Card

 

Hello everyone and happy Sunday. DT Annalisa here sharing an extra card this week featuring one new stamp set and some older but still awesome T4T goodies.

 I made this card for a friend who unfortunately had to say goodbye to her dog Maverick. This is always such a difficult thing to do as our furry friends are a huge part of our lives.

I don't typically make CAS or clean and simple cards but was inspired by Jo's Facebook Live this week to share this one. To start I used my Large Square Masking stencil to lie down some colour with Distress Oxides (Chipped Sapphire, Faded Jeans and Broken China) onto some 80 lb Neenah Desert Storm card stock. I used my white Gelly Roll Pen to add some white dots as well as lines around the outside of the square area. 

I die cut the Rainbow Mini Shaker Die from some white card stock and coloured in the rainbow with my copics. I stuck these down using liquid glue to the card base. Next, I stamped, coloured and die cut the cute dog from the Happy New Year Critters Clear Stamp Set from the November 2020 release. I stuck the dog on the card on top of the rainbow so that he was hopping over the rainbow which I thought was very fitting for this sympathy card.

I stamped the 'thinking of you' sentiment (Grateful For You Landscape Clear Stamp Set) with VersaMark ink and used some Alabaster ultra fine embossing powder by Brutus Monroe to heat emboss it. To finish the card I added some stars and hearts which I die cut from some Metal Prismatic Foil using the coordinating dies from Storms Don’t Last Forever as well as the coordinating dies from the Santa Paws Clear Stamp Set.

For all of you who have had to say goodbye to a loved furry friend this year, I send you my sympathies. It really is such a painful time and my thoughts are with you.

Quick & Easy Christmas Cards for Batch Making

 Hi everyone!

Jo here to let you know that the edited version of our latest FB Live is now available on YouTube.

Please check out the video link below to see how I made this CAS cards.

If you've followed me for a while you'll know that CAS is REALLY hard for me. I always want to add more :) This project was so much of a challenge for me, but you know what?? I loved it! I will definitely be doing more. 

Because the papers are all from our Winter Wonderland Paper Pad, they all coordinate. So even though the images are different they still work together as a set.

Our cute cat is from the Catmas Crackers Stamp set. The sentiment is from the Skating By Penguins Stamp Set.

Each layer was cut with our A6 Layering Dies. This adorable mouse is from our Carolling Critters Stamp set.

Our happy Penguin is from the Skating By Penguins Stamp set. This character is probably the simplest to colour if you wanted to batch make with just one image.

I added some second generation stamping of snowflakes in each of my backgrounds.

Some Stardust Stickles added a final touch of sparkle to the snow.

These cards are an ideal formula for any quick card making - not just for Christmas. You can just chose one image and stamp it multiple times and recreate the same card several times, rather than different images like I did. That will make the process even faster. Perfect for this time of year when we all have so many cards to make.

Thank you for checking out our tutorial and video.

Don't forget to join us for our FB Live every Thursday at 8pm BST.
