I have some playful bunnies today. If you want to know how I incorporated the bunnies to the floral with some easy layering and masking, head over to the @alexsyberiadesigns blog Alex Syberia Design products Spring bunnies Hello lovely (floral) Smile more (sentiment) Distress ink: Salvaged patina   To create this card, I cut two panels slightly bigger than the floral stamp and I stamped the floral image from the Hello lovely stamp set, a first time, to use as a template, using a stamping press. I then positionned the bunnies from the Spring bunnies stamp set, on the floral, exactly where I want them to be. I then replaced the stamped panel by the second one, still blank. I stamped the bunnies with Memento Tuxedo black ink and stamped them on masking paper. I fussy cut the masks and adhered them on the panel. I then placed the stamped floral in my stamping press and positionned the floral stamp over it. I closed the door to pick up the stamp, removed the stamped panel and stamped th...

My first Postage card of the year! And there is no newbie on this card. I've decided to buy less in 2025 and use more my stash, in particular unused material. This Frozen Friends set from @clearlybesotted deserved a little love! I used the @waffleflowercrafts A7 Postage collage die. I love its size and the fact that you can fit a small scene and a sentiment on each stamp.

Happy New Year!  Today, I'm sharing a floral inspiration featuring goodies from the last @alexsyberiadesigns release, with the cute penguins from the Smile more set and the gorgeous floral pattern with the Garden of blooms stencil set Alex Syberia Design products Smile more (penguins) Stay cozy (sentiment) Garden of blooms stencil Falala friends (beanie) Foxtrot alphabet die Falling snow stencil Distress oxides: Tumbled glass, Salty ocean, Blueprint sketch, Squeezed lemonade, Wild honey, Old paper, Peacock feathers, Lucky clover To create this card, I started by stamping the penguins from the Smile more stamp set, with Black tuxedo Memento ink.

I then stenciled the Garden of blooms in the background with Distress oxides from Ranger: Stencil 1: Tumbled glass and a bit of shading with Salty ocean Stencil 2: Salty ocean Sten...

It's Party Time! Sharing another festive card for the New Year.

Love that cutie making snow angels and what would I not give to see a little snow. I used the @sweetnovemberstamps Baby 'bominable Winter Wonders stamp set along with the Horizon lines Winter wonderland stamp set. For the sentiment, I used the Snowman selfie stamp set.

That card involved a ton of fussy cutting the masks, but it was totally worth it. Those branches are so intricate but this is what makes them so beautiful. I just love each set individually, and I think they work wonderfully together. The birds are from a beautiful @ginakdesigns set called Winter tweetings, released this year and, to set the scene, I used two other sets which are must have, I think, released a couple years ago by @simonsaysstamp: Cozy wishes and Winter birds.

Happy New Year! Wishing you the best for 2025! I have a very festive card today to celebrate the new year. I'm sharing all the details on the @alexsyberiadesigns blog. Alex Syberia Design products: Pengu-tastic holiday stamp set Underwater wonders stamp set Paradise birds stamp set Carnival party stencil and die set Midnight blooms stamp set (sentiment) Distress oxides: Sqeezed lemonade, Mustard seed and Wild honey To create this card, I started by hand-drawing the left glass of champagne. I then made a copy of the glass, using vellum. I used a pencil to copy the glass, then flipped the vellum and placed it over the panel on the right to the other glass and I penciled over the lines to transfer them onto the panel. I then stamped the images using the masking technique to place the glasses over the penguins arms and also masked the diving penguin to stamp the penguin-mermaid at the back. I started with the bottom glass from the Paradise birds stamp set, and the diving penguin, from ...
