It gives you three stamps and a couple of dies that you can put one on top of the other to create a little scene. I will be using that today. And finally I have this Art Impressions stamp which I think it is adorable. Perfect for birthdays with three images of this hedgehog in different positions. Really fun. So I'm going to start with the flip card and I'm just separating the die here. To start with that you need to have a paper that is 6.5 x 5.5 And don't worry there is a leaflet inside that explains exactly what you need to cut and how you are going to use it. Now I need to place the die at 3 ¼. Of course you can use a ruler and a pencil to add the mark on where that 3 ¼ is. Instead I'm using my scoring board just because I find it easier. So then I placed the die on top, ran it through my big shot and here is what you get. So here is what you get when you use that die and I'm going to use my bone folder to reinforce that scoring line. So all the measurements and the die cut were made so that this card fits inside a standard envelope and you can see that it fits nicely inside including the flap. Now all the available stamp sets for this collection that go and match perfectly with that die have 2 images, a front and a back. I'm using my MISTI to do all the stamping because I'm working on watercolor paper and on the rough side of the paper. So I'm going to stamp the image with the octopus that is facing at the front and at the top I'm stamping at the same time the sentiment that says it's your birthday. I'm using archival ink which is not going to move or smudge since I'm planning to work with my Artisa pens later on and that's why I'm stamping on watercolor paper and you can see that I didn't get a good impression obviously because I'm working on the textured side but that's why the MISTI is 4. I'm going to keep on stamping until I'm happy with the outcome. So here is what I have at the front and now on the inside I'm going to stamp the other octopus as well as the other sentiment. This time I'm going to get a better impression at the first stamping since this is the smooth side of the watercolor paper still I need to stamp a couple of times. So here is how it works, the front and the inside. Now I'm going to do all the coloring and today I decided to work with my Artisa pens these are really fun and really easy to work with you can follow the colors on the packaging since they give you a nice idea on how you can color it I'm going to do a different color combo today. If you visit my blog you will find an exclusive coat that the guys over at Artisa gave for my audience you can use it to get these markers in a great price with a great discount The coupon code is valid until the 15th of April make sure to visit my blog to check it out Now in my videos I usually focus on how to design the cards rather than on how you can color them but you can see here the technique that I'm going with I just add color at the darker areas of my image and then blend out the color with a water brush and you can see that by using just one pen I can get all those different variations of color and of course there are many other ways that you can use those pens like blending two colors together they blend beautifully but always remember to work on watercolor paper and of course stamp your image with an ink that doesn't move now here I'm using the exact same technique to color the octopus on the inside of my card and I will be using the exact same colors for the same objects on the front and on the inside so here you can see how I color the front now I'm going to move on the inside and I have the markers that I used on the front next to me so that I don't make any mistakes and I will go ahead and do that as well and here is the finished card and of course remember that you can use any coloring medium that you like now this is a finished card but I like to take it a step further for that I'm going to use a wave stencil that I have I am going to secure it with some purple tape and then I will go ahead and add some inking over it but this is going to give the illusion that the octopus is actually underwater I am using the stress oxide ink and I apply it with a brush this ensures that I don't apply too much ink over it and I can go even over the octopus since this tumbled glass that I am using is very pale and you can see here the finished result now I'm going to repeat the same process on the inside of my card and again I'm going to use my piece of purple tape to cover up the flap and on the inside of this card you have enough space to write your personal message at the top where all that blank space is and I finished off my card by adding three little bubbles coming out of my octopus I like the unique design it has something different than we usually create and I think it's a really fun card for summer birthdays here are some close-up photos on the card now for my next card I'm going to use a trifold front porch this is just adorable it comes with two dice and three stamps there are instructions in the set so don't worry about how you can put this together but it's really easy those two dice match one of the stamps so they actually create little windows that you can see through them on the other image there are many ways to create gatefold cards like this one if you want you can follow their instructions and you will end up with this one that fits inside an envelope and for this one you start with a 4.5x11 cardstock now I have a piece of patterned paper that I want to cover the front with since I don't want to be plain white but this is a step that you can completely omit now I'm going to use a circle die that I had in my stash just to open up a window and I made sure that the circle that I'm using here is bigger than the stamps so that I will fit nicely to stamp inside now my card is ready I need to do the stamping and the die cutting now so I'm going to move on and stamp the first image on the front and I am using my misty here just to make sure that I end up having a good impression so here's the first one where you can see the stairs going to the porch and some flowers on the left and on the right now I need to use the die make sure that I align it correctly secure it with some purple tape and then I'm going to run it through my die cutting machine make sure that as you run it through the die cutting machine you open up the card completely otherwise you are going to cut out through layers that you don't want to so here is my little window at the front now I'm going to move on and work on the flap to make sure that I align everything correctly I'm just going to use a pencil and just add a little mark there so I know exactly where I need to stamp the other image before I do the stamping I need to erase my pencil lines and don't worry if you don't align those images perfectly they are really forgiving you will still be able to see through those windows now again I need to align the die over that empty space I will secure it with my purple tape use some wash tape you need to make sure that this die is not going to move open up the card completely and run it through your die cutting machine and you can see here how the window looks now with the chair and the little cut on the porch and I'm going to repeat the same process one more time so I used my pencil to mark exactly where I need to align the third stamp I'm going to do the stamping again with my misti and now the base of my card is ready now I need to add some color and here is how my card is looking I need to add some color now I used 80 lb cardstock for my card base and I don't want to use alcohol markers because they are going to bleed at the back and you will be able to see that that's why I decided to go with my Prisma color pencils to do all the coloring I mainly followed the colors that are on the packaging I'm mainly focusing on how to create those card designs so I'm going to move the video a little bit forward where I have all those images colored and I did a really quick coloring with my pencils not paying attention to details at the end I used Gamsol with those stamp tools and they blend nicely together everything so I don't end up having those pencil lines and here is everything ready to go with all those layers completing my front porch I have also used dies to cut out this little white ring which I'm going to place at the front I think that completes the card nicely on the inside there is a sentiment that says no matter where you go you can no less come home and that's why I decided to add the word home at the front I used an alphabet die to cut out the letters out of white cardstock and I'm gluing everything down using my Nouveau Deluxe glue and here is the finished card with a window at the front and all the layers on the inside flaps and you can see some close up photos here and keep in mind that Art Impressions has many more stamp sets that you can work with to create these type of trifle style cards with really adorable scenes that come together beautifully make sure that you check them out before you decide which one you want For my last card I'm going to use the doghouse cubies this is a set and comes with the stamp set as well as the dies and the dies actually cut out all the doors and the windows on those dog houses so you can attack inside the dogs that come with the stamp set now this is really fun to create I'm going to stamp first the houses and I'm working on watercolor paper again so that I can go ahead and color everything with my Real Brush Artisa pens now for coloring the houses I went with the rainbow color theme so I'm starting with the red and I will continue with the orange yellow I will have the yellow popping at the top that tiny little house at the top then I will move on to green and to blue but you can see that I'm going to add a flag which I'm going to color purple for that purple touch now I'm going to place the die on top and this is going to cut out the doors and the windows I'm going to secure it with some purple tape and run it through my big shot and you will see that some of the doors and the windows pop out completely but some of them create that little opening which is just adorable you can see those two front doors open up now so I stamped and colored my dogs and cut them out with the matching dies I used 5 of them but there are 7 different dogs in the sunset my dogs are going to come out of those houses but I don't like the empty space that I have at the back that's why I'm going to cut out a piece of this craft cardstock I'm going to roughly draw around the die with a pencil and then I'm going to use my scissors and cut out inside that pencil line this is going to ensure that the piece that I have roughly matches the size of my houses I can stick both of them with a foam tape one on top of the other and then with my scissors I'm going to make sure that all the edges are nicely and neat it's really all about the details when I'm making cards so I just couldn't stand having those windows and the doors looking at an empty space now I feel like my houses have an interior and I can nicely tuck inside all those dogs and can you see how dimensional it looks absolutely perfect now I'm going to create a background for my card and I will be using 2 Distress Oxide colors for my sky and for my grass I am applying everything with a foam blending tool to have nice saturation of color when I apply both the colors at the top and at the bottom of my card base I will make sure that these 2 colors are not going to meet at any point and I have a nice background for my dog houses to stay on I used Nuvo Deluxe Glue at the back to stick my houses down make sure that they are nice and secure there and I'm going to start sticking down all the pieces so you can see there the flag for the touch of purple that was missing and I'm going to tuck in this guy at the back coming out from the back I think this is super adorable and I will continue with the rest of the dog some of them are going outside of the houses looking through the windows or through the doors I used a die that I had on my stash to cut out this speech bubble and I stamped one of the sentiments from the same stamp set that says Happy Birthday from all of us which I'm going to stick that on top of my card with foam squares and my panel is ready all I need to do is to just stick it on top of a card base and here are some close up photos from the last card for today don't forget that just like always you will find a full list of all the supplies that I used for this video down below in the description
