Hey there, crafty friends, it’s Nina-Marie here with you today! With the warmer weather now upon us, it’s a lot easier to find outdoor elements to incorporate into our crafting projects. This month’s installment of Not a Card takes some easy-to-find nature elements and turns them into a fun DIY game of tic-tac-toe!

This is a great project to make with or for kids; custom paint some rocks, use sticks for the board, and then store everything in our Simon Says Stamp Junior Mesh Bag (which can also be decorated)! I used Tim Holtz Alcohol Inks to color the mesh bag.

Be sure to watch the video to see how I created this cute game!

Hello crafty friends! Cathy Z. here with another easy card project and today, we’re just creating a simple, ink blended background with a classic emboss resist technique!

If you haven’t tried ink blending with the Pawsitively Saturated Ink collection, I’m telling you this: they blend beautifully!

Emboss resist is such a fun way to create a colorful background using any patterned stamp. I love this floral pattern on the Flower Frenzy Cling, and it’s perfect for this cheery encouragement card.

Also, if you’ve never tried my way of using a cling stamp in a Misti stamp positioner, give it a try! It really is a great way to get wonderful impressions onto your cardstock.

Here is my video showing you how I created the card:
