AALL & Create Have a Hoot #658 Stamp Set

Hello Crafty Friends, today I’m sharing two easy cardmaking ideas using Have a Hoot #658 Stamp Set by AALL & Create.

I made 2 different card formats ( C6 and slimline) and both feature the same elements: cute stamped owls, Copic colouring, washi tape borders, stencilled backgrounds, die-cut textures behind the images, and a little bit of dimension to add interest.

Supplies used

To make these cards I used the main following supplies:

Have a Hoot #658 Stamp Set
Stencil #105 Lotza Trianglz.

Copic Ciao Markers and Distress Inks to add colours.

The Images

First, I stamped the images on smooth cardstock using the Misti and Black Memento Ink.
Then I applied colour using Copics ( alcohol Markers)
Next, I fussy cut the images.
Using a Memento Black Marker, I applied ink around the raw edges of the images and set them aside.

The Sentiments

I white heat embossed on black sentiments from the Have a Hoot #658 Stamp Set to make small banners for both cards.

For the slimline card ( 3/3-4″ x 8″ inches), I also used a sentiment from the XL Spring Greetings Stamp Set by Simon Says Stamps. I used the Misti and Versafine Black Onix Ink to do this.

The Backgrounds

I placed the Lotza Trianglz stencil #105 over the background pieces for these cards and I applied Fossilized Amber and Twisted Citron Distress Oxide Ink through the stencil using SSS blending brushes.

Then I adhered the Washi Tape Inspire #2 to the bottom portion of each panel.

I inked a die-cut using brown, green and red Distress inks and I glued it to the background to add interest

To finish, I used foam pad adhesives to adhere the images over and Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive to glue other elements and embellishments as shown in the pictures.

I also used Sparkle Silk over the images to add shine and to add glossy accents I used Nuvo Crystal Glaze.
