Fishin’ Hole with Amy

Posted by Amy Young | Jul 7, 2021 | Uncategorized

Hello, Amy here and today I’m sharing a cute summer scene card using the classic Fishin’ Hole stamp set. The twist comes by pairing this happy little fisherman with one of the newest background scene stamps called, Country Roads. You might be asking, where is that country road? Well, I turned it into a rushing stream full of fish and it was as simple as grabbing blue Copic markers rather than brown to color it in. A few fish, stamped in a light grey ink, also help transform the road into the perfect fishin’ hole for our little friend...

Flying High with Amy

Hello, Amy here and I’m sharing a slimline card that I’ve made using a mash-up of several new and older Hello Bluebird stamp sets. Even though I was pulling stamps from so many different sets, it was the new Flying High set that inspired the entire scene. The cute groups of animals made to hang out of a hot air balloon basket also work great in a number of different environments. A couple of weeks ago I made a card using just the elephants peeking over a wall, this time around I wanted to tackle an idea that was...

Pig Out with Amy

Hello, Amy here and I’ve got another sweet scene card using new stamps and dies from the May release that just hit the store. This time around I grabbed the Summer Woods scene die to draw inspiration from. With its long slimline profile there are so many different scenarios that it can accommodate. I finally decided that this trio of friends from the Pig Out stamp set would be perfect strolling through the Summer Woods. Once I knew where this card was going I cut the background die out of the white card stock that I use for coloring...

Hello friends, Amy here with a sweet friendship card full of fantasy and wonder. The recent background stamp release included three new 6×6 background scene stamps, all of which I am head over heels in love with. My style of coloring and card making centers around building scenes and telling stories with the stamps I am using, so these amazing backgrounds are must-haves in my collection. The card I am sharing today pairs the new Mushroom House background with sweet, little fairies from the Fairy Dance and Fairy Garden sets. I knew from the start that my first card...

Hello friends, Amy here with a fun spring inspired card using a mix of older stamps, including the Old Oak background stamp which will soon be re-released as a clear stamp! That’s right, all of the older rubber background stamps will be re-released on March 4th as clear stamps making them much easier to keep in stock. There’s also a handful of gorgeous new scene builders coming that are totally going to knock your socks off! When I sat down to create this card I started to think ahead to March and the windy days that happen all month...
