Hello Friends! Katy here with another quick project. In today’s video I create a simple Thanksgiving card and I share with you an easy way to ink blend directly on your stamp. This is a great technique to use on your silhouette stamps and a great way to change up the color from just basic black.
Hello Friends! Today we are going to have some fun and create a see-through Thanksgiving card with a sort of mosaic created from die cut leaves on a clear card base.

Hello Friends! Katy here with another quick project. In today’s video I create a simple Halloween card. I had some printed spooky printed acetate in my stash and paired it with a brick stencil and some Brilliance Moonlight White ink. I just love this white ink more than any others and so I like to showcase it any time I can.
Hello crafty friends! Today, we are going to do some watercoloring with Memento markers, stenciling with Memento ink, and stamping with VersaFine ink to make this Fall floral coffee mug card. Let’s gather your supplies, grab a cup of coffee, and get crafting together!
Skill: Intermediate Time: 15-20 minutes
Direction:
Step 1
Cut out a piece white cardstock into 4″ x 5 1/4″
Put the stencil on top of the cardstock and secure it with some washi tape or removable tape.
Use a blending brush to add the Memento London Fog ink to the cardstock.
Remove the stencil and set aside for the ink to dry.
Step 2
On a piece of watercolor cardstock, stamp all the floral and cup images with the VersaFine Onyx Black ink.
Cut them with their matching die set or you can simply fussy cut them with scissors.
Step 3
There are two ways of watercoloring. The first option is you can do wet on wet technique by lightly wet the area where you want to add the watercolor paint, and then pick up the ink with a water brush and color on the wet watercolor paper. And the second option is called wet on dry technique where you add the watercolor paint directly on the dry watercolor paper. Both ways work well with these Memento Markers.
On this project, I used the wet on wet technique. First, scribble each color of the Memento Marker on the craft mat. Wet the stamped image, pick up the ink with a wet water brush, and then add the color to the image. Dry the watercolored image with a craft heat gun.
Step 4
Cut out a piece of copy paper with the doily die to make paper doily. Add it to the stenciled panel with On Point Glue.
Cut a piece of black cardstock into 4 1/8″ x 5 3/8″ mat, add the stenciled panel to it with On Point Glue.
Add the whole background panel to the card base with On Point Glue.
Put together the watercolored coffee mug and flower bouquet cluster with On Point Glue.
Step 5
Stamp the sentiment and faux stitch pattern on a piece of white cardstock with VersaFine Onyx Black, and then trim it into a sentiment banner.
Add the floral coffee mug in the middle of the card, on top of the doily with On Point Glue.
Add the sentiment banner on the left top of the card with On Point Glue.
Memento Markers are not only for coloring, but also watercoloring. I had fun making this card with a watercoloring technique using these markers. And I hope this Fall Floral Coffee mug card can perk you up!
Thank you for stopping by our blog today. Have a wonderful day!
Hello Friends! Katy here with another quick project. I love trying new things with my inks and embossing folders and in todays video I used my VersaFine Clair with some Brilliance pigment inks in Cosmic Copper and Galaxy Gold and Moonlight White, with a 3D embossing folder.
