Tree-Rex and Mistletoads with Trinity Stamps

| marialrussell

Hello and thanks for stopping by! I am so excited to share my projects today, showcasing some very cute stamp sets and dies by Trinity Stamps.

For my first card, I am showcasing the Tree Rex 3×4 Stamp Set and Tree Rex Coordinating Die with the Slimline Forest Border Die Set and Melted Icicle Clear Twinkle Sequin Confetti as my shaker element.

Here’s how I made this card:

  • Stamp the Tree Rex on some Neenah solar white card stock and color the images in with alcohol markers.
  • Die-cut the images using the Tree Rex Coordinating Die.
  • Ink-blend an A2 size panel of Bristol Smooth white card stock using Worn Lipstick and Spun Sugar Distress Oxide ink.
  • Use distress sprayer to add some splatters to the background and pick up the excess water with some paper towel.
  • Use white gel pen to add stars and dots for added interest.
  • Die-cut the trees and snowbanks using the Slimline Forest Border Die Set on some white card stock and patterned paper.
  • Adhere the die-cuts on the card panel with liquid glue.
  • Create the shaker well with acetate and foam adhesive.
  • Add the Melted Icicle Clear Sequin Confetti as the shaker element and adhere onto the card panel to close the shaker.
  • Adhere the pattern paper border on the card panel.
  • Add the focal image with liquid glue.
  • Stamp the sentiment on some black card stock with Versamark ink, sprinkle some white embossing powder and heat-set with the heating tool.
  • Adhere the sentiment on the card.

My next project is easy, peasy! Who wouldn’t want to see rainbow toads, right?! I know I would! I know this stamp set is meant for Christmas but I would like for you to think outside the box and stretch your supplie.

For this card below, I am showcasing the Mistletoads 3×4 stamp set and Mistletoads Coordinating Dies with the Slimline Scalloped Card Panels and Banners die set, Modern Embossed Panels Die Set and Slimline Winter Hues Paper Pad.

  • Die cut the slimline scallop using the
  • Die-cut the blue pattern paper from the Winter Hues Paper Pad using the second biggest die from the Modern Embossed Panels Die Set.
  • Adhere the pieces together with liquid glue and add on a slimline card base.
  • Adhere the focal images onto the card panel.
  • Stamp the sentiment on some black card stock and sprinkle some white embossing powder. Heat-set with heating tool.
  • Die-cut the sentiment using the coordinating die.
  • Finish the design by using white gel pen to add some dots to the toads.

Aren’t they ADORABLE? Which one is your favorite? I can’t really choose because both cards are so cute!

I hope I have given you some inspiration today to stretch your supplies. Everything I used is listed and linked below. Thanks for stopping by and happy stamping!

I started by die-cutting my slimline panel on some Neenah solar white card stock using the biggest die from the Slimline Stitched Card Panels & Windows die set. I stamped the Serious Celebration on this piece and colored it in with my Spectrum Noir Classique Alcohol markers.

Birthday Gnomes Card with Trinity Stamps

| marialrussell

Hello all! I hope you all had a great week. Happy Saturday! My Canon camera finally gave up on me so while I am waiting for the replacement (it takes 3 to 4 weeks to get to me now since I am overseas), I will be sharing some projects on the blog with you instead.

For my card today, I used a LOT of products from the shop. I am showcasing the adorable Make A Wish stamp set, Just For You stamp set, Create with Trinity stamp set. The dies I used for this card are the Stitched Card Panels and Windows with the Serious Celebration die set.

I started by using the biggest die from the Stitched Card Panels & Windows die set to die cut some Bristol smooth white card stock. I ink-blended this panel with some distress oxide inks with the Trinity Blending Buddy brushes and used my paintbrush and to flick some water on this panel for added texture. I picked the excess water with some paper towel.

I die-cut some Neenah solar white card stock using the windows panel die. I foam-mounted this piece on the ink-blended background for added dimension.

I stamped and colored the images on some Neenah solar white card stock and used my Spectrum Noir Tri-Blend markers to color the images in. Since I didn’t get the coordinating dies, I used my precision snips to fussy-cut the images. I foam mounted them onto the window panel for added dimension.

I love coloring my images with bright colors!

For added texture, I die-cut the stars from the Serious Celebration die set and adhered them on the card with some liquid glue. I adhered the colored panel on an 8 1/2 by 7 inches slimline card base. Here’s a closer look:

To finish my design I stamped the sentiment from the Create with Trinity stamp set and Just For You stamp set.

I hope you like my card today. The supplies I use are listed and linked below. Thanks for stopping by and happy stamping!

Mice Cards with Trinity Stamps

| marialrussell

Hello my crafty friends!  I’m back today for Trinity Stamps sharing two cute cards, showcasing the 4×6 Mouse House stamp set and Mouse House coordinating dies, with the Slimline Card Series: Scenic Border die set, and the Blending Buddy brush.

 

To begin, I stamped the images on some Neenah solar white card stock and colored them in with my alcohol markers.  I used the coordinating dies to die-cut the images.

 

 

To make my first card, I ink-blended some Bristol smooth white card stock with some distress oxide ink and used the Blending Buddy brushes to blend the colors.  I used some circle dies from my stash to die-cut some holes on this card stock.  I foam-mounted the piece on an A2 size card base, cutting the excess.  I adhered the mice with some liquid adhesive.

 

 

I finished my design by stamping the sentiment on some black card stock and heat-setting with white embossing powder, and adding some red hearts.  Here’s a closer look:

 

 

For my second card, I also ink-blended my background and used a stencil from my stash to add the sun-rays.  I die-cut two grass panels using the Slimline Scenic Borders die set.  I also die-cut the rest of the elements that I needed to create my scene.

 

 

The sentiment was stamped with Versamark ink and heat-set with my heating tool. I used my black gel pen to add more dimension to the mice.  I also added the clouds to finish my design.  Here’s a closer look:

 

 

I hope you like my cards today and got inspired.  Thanks for joining me, and happy stamping!

Magic Is Something You Create with Trinity Stamps

| marialrussell

Hello Trinity Stamps fans!  I hope everyone’s having a great Saturday!  It’s the weekend and time for some design team inspiration.

For my card today, I am showcasing the 4×8 Sleepy Hollow stamp set and coordinating die set with the 4×6 Magical Sentiments stamp set.

To begin, I stamped as many images as possible on some white card stock and colored them in with alcohol markers.

I die-cut the images using the coordinating dies.  I like to keep the rest of the stamped images inside the stamp envelope so that I can use it for future projects.

I ink-blended a panel of Bristol smooth white card stock using Distress oxide inks and the “Blending Buddy” Brown Bristle blending brushes.

I also used a clouds stencil from my stash to add more depth and dimension to my background.  I used some white Copic paint and my water color brush to splatter some white paint on the background.

I wanted my scene to look like it’s a starry night!  I set this aside to let it dry.

Once the panel was dry, I stamped the sentiment with some Versamark ink and sprinkled some white embossing powder, then heat-set using my heating tool.

I foam-mounted the tree and some of the grass on the card, and adhered the rest of the images with liquid adhesive.

I absolutely LOVE how this card turned out.  This reminds me of camping under the stars with my hubby and children.  I cannot wait to camp with my family again.  Here’s a closer look:

I hope you like my card and got inspired today.  The supplies I used are listed and linked below.  Thanks for stopping by and happy stamping!
