a2z Scrapbooking Guest Design – Hero Arts Notes and Dates

Hello everyone!! I’m so happy to be here today, guest designing for a2z scrapbooking! This was my very first design team. I joined them back in 2014. So it means a lot to work with them today.

Let’s take a look at what I created:

I used Hero Arts Notes and Dates digital kit to create these cards. It was so easy and fun.

I used Photoshop to plugged in each stamp. Two to a sheet of white cardstock.

Once all of the stamps are place all you have to do is print them.

Save the psd file so that you can recreate the cards a million times if need be.

Since it’s National Handwriting Letter Month, if any one wants one these cards to show up in their mail box just let me know in the comments below.

Before you go, don’t forget a2z Scrapbook Challenge this month is all about fun folds. Why not join in on the fu?

Hello everyone!! I’m here today with a a2z Scrapbooking Challenge. The theme this month is Getting To Know You!!

Take a look at my card:

Here’s how I created this card:

For this card I masked off a portion of the card with post-it tape.

Then I used Distress Ink Wild Honey and Broken China and blended them together using the ink blending tool.

After that, I stamp the butterflies from Hero Arts Layering Butterflies stamp set using Versafine Onyx Black Ink, 3 times. Then I stamped the sentiment using the same ink.

Once that is complete, I added small white dots using a gelly roll pen to enhance the butterflies.

Clean and simple design!

Hello everyone!! I’m here today with a a2z Scrapbooking Challenge. The theme this month is Playing with Stencils!!

Take a look at my card:

stencil-hello-a2z

I had so much fun this weekend playing with my Gel Press Plate that I had to create a card using it. I added paint to the gel press using a brayer. Then I placed the plate on top of the card front. After that, I placed the stencil on top of the gel plate. Then I added the ink on top of the stencil using a brayer. I removed the stencil and placed the gel plate on top of the card front creating a textured look on the card front. Then I die cut the sentiment hello out of white cardstock and adhered it to the card front.

Pretty cool!

Posted in a2z scrapbooking challenge, December 2016 by Kreative Kymona

Hello everyone!! I’m here today with a a2z Scrapbooking Challenge. The theme this month is Anything but a Card!!

Take a look at my tag:

Here is how I created this tag:

I gather all of my supplies needed to create a tag: Hero Arts Joyful Tiding Tag Set, Hero Arts Raspberry Ink, Hero Arts Black Ink, Lucy Abrams Ivory Sequin, We R Memory Keepers Fuse Tool, We R Memory Keepers Photo Sleeves, and Tombow Mono Adhesive Plus, We R Memory Keepers Crop-a-dile and a ColorBox Art Dauber.

I die cut three tags so that I could stack them on top of each other. Then I used the sponge dauber to add some color using the Hero Arts Raspberry Jam Ink.

Once the top tag was inked to my liking, I adhered the two additional tags with Tombow Mono Adhesive Plus.

Place the finished tag inside the plastic and line the die up over it. Use Washi tape to hold it down. Then you want to glide the fuse tool around the die, sealing it.

Once you add the sequin is added inside, seal the top of the tag the same way you did the body of the tag.

Punch a hole using a We R Memory Keepers Crop-a-dile and string a piece of string.

Hello everyone!! I’m here today with a new a2z Scrapbooking Challenge. The theme this month is Anything Goes!! Such a easy and fun challenge, since you decide what your project will look like.

Take a look at the card I created:

Hello Friend (a2z)

There was nothing to creating this card. It was pretty straight forward.

I used Hero Arts Floral Pattern Stencil to create a partial pattern on the card front with Hero Arts Lilac to Grape Purple Ombre Ink and some sponge daubers.

Then I used Hero Arts Memories Black Dye Ink and stamped the different sentiments from Hero Arts Lia Griffith Friends by Lia stamp set.

I used We R Memory Keepers Envelope Punch Board to round some of the corners on both cards.

Nice and easy.
