Live Life at Full Throttle interactive wiper card for High Hopes Rubber Stamps

Hello! I'm so super excited today because this is my first blog post as part of the High Hopes Design Team. I'm really happy to join such a fabulous group of talented ladies and create projects using High Hopes Rubber Stamps! I hope you'll like what I have in store!


Today's card is a super fun one; it's a wiper card! This was my first time making an interactive card like this. I've been seeing them all over the place, and I thought that this would be the perfect way to showcase the Super Speed car stamp (which you'll see in a little bit). I combined it with the Space Scape background stamp and the Live Life sentiment stamp for a super cool, out-of-this-world card!

I had so much fun making this card! I made it for my lil cousin whose birthday is next week. I love how bright and colorful it is, so I think he'll really like it.


What is even more fun is that I attached lil Tavi to my card with an Action Wobbler! So when you gently flick him, he starts jumping like crazy! Watch the video below to see for yourself:


Super fun right?! Hope you liked today's card and that it inspires you to get crafty! Have a good day!

Valentine's Day card with non-traditional colors and Monster Love from Concord and 9th

Hello! Welcome back for another quick card share! I'm calling this one a Valentine's Day card, but it is very non-traditional - which is what I love so much about it! I made this card for my lil cousins, and I think it's a cute and fun way to tell them how much I love them! I'm using the Monster Love stamp set by Concord & 9th again. Visit THIS blog post to see the card I previously made with this stamp set. I loved it so much I just had to use it again!

Caffeinated Cats card plus FREE download for Arteza Real Brush Pens color chart

Hello you, so glad you stopped by! I hope you like color, because today I'm sharing one of the most colorful cards I've made in awhile. I'm using the Caffeinated Cats stamp set by Newton's Nook designs. I had no problem choosing the colors for the cats because I love cats, so the ideas just came to me easily! The mugs, however, took me a little bit longer to decide, but when in doubt about color choice - do a rainbow!

Watch a process video of the card below or in full HD on my YouTube channel:
