Special Hugs for You


Nancy Hill for The Rubber Buggy Design Team.  I love working with collections of coordinating paper, dies and stamp sets of the Heartfelt Creations collections.  The Rubber Buggy carries the Heartfelt Creations collections that went into my card.  The Rubber Buggy carries name-brand craft products and has wonderful customer service and nice fast delivery right to your door step. 

Isn't the Heartfelt Creations Classic Petunia collection of coordinating paper, dies and stamp sets gorgeous.  I stamped the Heartfelt Creations Classic Petunia Bouquet stamp on white cardstock and used the Heartfelt Creations Eyelet Oval die set as the background of this stamp.  The bouquet was colored with colored pencils and Copic markers.  The Heartfelt Creations Classic Small Petunia flowers stamp was on white cardstock and inked with Ranger Archival Deep Purple before cutting out with the Heartfelt Creations Classic Small Petunia die set.

 I just love the doves found in the Heartfelt Creations Dogwood collection.  This dove came from the Heartfelt Creations Flowering Dogwood and Dove stamp and Heartfelt Creations Flowering Dogwood and Dove die set.  I used light blue Copic markers for the shadows on the dove.  The patterned paper is from the Heartfelt Creations Class Petunia Paper.

 I applied the NUVO Crystal Drops Gloss White  in the center of the petunias and on the right top corner.  I added a May Arts 1 1/2" wide White ribbon tied into a bow and added a pearl/rhinestone slider buckle in the center of the bow.  I always use Scor-Tape to adhere ribbons to my cards.  
Inside of Card:  Heartfelt Creations Class Petunia Paper was used as the background. Heartfelt Creations Eyelet Oval die  cut out with white cardstock, Heartfelt Creations Wishes stamp set stamped in Ranger Black in.Heartfelt Creations Classic Petunia Bouquet stamp in a purple but used as a watermark behind the sentiment.

Heartfelt Creations Shoe Cards


I just had a birthday party from wonderful friends and family who gave me beautiful flowers. I choose each of my friends favorite flowers and made flowers and a card to symbolize our friendship and thanks using the Heartfelt Creations collections starting with the Heartfelt Creations All Glammed Up shoe die and stamp set from The Rubber Buggy on-line store.

With this beautiful stamp set, I used the corner border stamp for the inside of the card and colored it with Copic markers.  I will write  my thank you note inside the card.  

 Heartfelt Creations Blushing Rose paper collection,  set, Heartfelt Creations All Classic Rose Stamp Set, Heartfelt Creations All Classic Rose Die Set, Venise Lace
 Heartfelt Creations Petunia paper, Heartfelt Creations Small Petunia Die set, Heartfelt Creations Small Petunia Stamp Set, Go Green Prills, Venice Lace
 Heartfelt Creations Peacock Paisley paper, Heartfelt Creations Delightful Daisy die set, Heartfelt Creations Daisy Stamp Set, Heart Gold Prills, Poppy Stamp Theo Butterfly die

The finished shoe card measures 4 1/2" x 5 1/5" .  Inside of card, fold paper in half and die cut with part of the heel of the shoe about 1/4" off the fold line.  See next photo for sample.


I cut the front with Heartfelt Creations Blushing Rose paper collection and cut off the heel and glued to the first page of the purple shoe.  Since the purple paper is light weight, I cut out another cream colored shoe to glue on the back of the card and cut part of the back of the shoe to match the fold line of the purple shoe so that the front of the card will fold easily.  See photo below

I can't wait to see the possibilities that you will create making a shoe card.  I really encourage you to purchase the entire coordinating Heartfelt Creations collections from 
The Rubber Buggy.


Enjoy and Happy Crafting!

Hi, Nancy Hill for Frantic Stamper and what an adorable little sweet penguin that will cheer every ones day on your 2017 Christmas card.  I cut out three penguins in each cardstock colors of black, orange and white and three different patterns and assembled them together with different patterned hats.  I cut out the Frantic Stamper Merry Christmas die in red glitter cardstock.  I added glitter on the hats and holly and NUVO Crystal Drops-Rhubarb for the berries.

Thinking Of You

 Welcome back bloggers and I am sooooo excited to share with you some techniques that I have used on my autumn card made with Heartfelt Creations Woodsy Wonderland and Heartfelt Creations Sun Kissed Fleur Flowers dies and stamps sets along with NUVO Embellishment Mousse colors and Copic markers.  All of these amazing coordinating Heartfelt Creations papers, dies and stamps sets  came from The Rubber Buggy on-line store.  The Rubber Buggy has wonderful name-brand craft products with fast delivery and fantastic customer service. 

I love the coordinating dies, stamps and paper in the Heartfelt Creations Woodsy Wonderland collection.  We have several relatives who love the outdoors and also a few hunters.  I have made several cards and projects with this collection and love how easy it is to make wonderful cards and this shadow box card using the beautiful trees, animals and birds in this collection.  

 I colored most of the animals with Copic markers and the squirrel and birds were cut out of the Heartfelt Creations Woodsy Wonderland paper collection.  

One technique that I love to share with you is that the sunset was colored with NUVO Embellishment Mousse colors of Aqua Marine, Peony Pink, Coral Calypso, Lemon Sorbet and Mother-of-Pearl.  I sprayed some water on the heavy white card stock and also sprayed some water in each of the NUVO Mousse jars.  I would suggest to start on top with the NUVO Mousse Aqua Marine using a sponge or wet cloth and use the Pink and Coral and work in the Lemon Sorbet.  Use the Mother-of-Pearl with a brush to create a few faint clouds in the sunset.  






Heartfelt Creations Sun Kissed Fleur Stamp and Die Set



I sponged on NUVO Embellishment Mousse - Lemon Sorbet, Persian Red and Coral Calypso on the 
Heartfelt Creations Sun Kissed Fleur petals after using a flower molding tool to shape the flowers.  

Another technique that I have found is creating a mix colors in the Prills using Copic markers.  After gluing the center of each flower, I dipped the center in Prills - Go Man Go and let it dry.  I took the fine pointed felt side of the Copic marker and tap some of the tops of the Prills with red, black, green and brown Copic markers.  
Go Man Go Prills
Minnie Pearl Prills

 I did the same steps with these flowers shown below of applying glue and adding the white Minnie Pearl Prills to these flowers.  After the glue dried, I colored most of the Prills with pink and lavender Copic markers using the fine tip of the Copic markers.  

I will need to make a video within a few weeks on how I made my shadow box for this card.  I thought it would take some time but I created this shadow box within minutes.  The depth of the shadow box is only 1/4" which is good for mailing.  I research shadow boxes on line and got some of my ideas and modified some of their instructions.  Keep watching my blog and hopefully, I will get this videoed shortly.


Inside of card
Heartfelt Creations Wishes Stamp Set


The card measures 7 1/2" x 9" and the shadow box measures 6" x 8".  After creating this card, I could have made this smaller and plan on doing this for my next shadow box card.  I plan on creating a winter and/or Christmas card using this same collection and doing a shadow box card.  

Overall, loads of fun creating this card for a very special person.  I plan on putting this in a small box to send it to him. If you plan on giving your card in person, you can gift wrap it in tissue paper or gift wrapping paper.  

I can't wait to see the possibilities that you will create making a shadow box card.  I really encourage you to purchase the entire coordinating collection of the Heartfelt Creations Woodsy Wonderland paper, dies and stamps from 
The Rubber Buggy.


Enjoy and Happy Crafting!
