Funny Friday with Art Impressions: A Llama Twist!

Hello, friends! Each month, we love bringing you an Art Impressions project that we think is funny and might bring you a smile!
Today I am featuring the adorable Llama Twist set in a colorful (and super cute!) design.
The Twist sets from Art Impressions create interactive elements that can be twisted back and forth. I love how when you open the card, the llama’s butt is on the inside!

Want to see how I made this fun card?? Watch the video below for all the details!

Offset Stencil Ink Blending with Kristina Werner

Hello, all! Kristina Werner here. I’m back with some ink blending with one of the new stencils that just came out last week. I thought I’d do some offset stencil ink blending!

I used four colors of Simon Says Stamp ink for my blending: Hot Mama, Doll Pink, Island Blue, and Sunshine. By sliding the Geo Leaves stencil just a bit for my second layer of blending, I get an overlapped look. So fun!
For the greeting, I used the new Thinking of You Line die set as well. This die set is meant to be used with two different colors of cardstock, so in this case I used black and white.
Thanks for stopping by! Happy crafting!
