Now, on to my project! YAY!

I wanted to create a card filled with colour and vibrancy, so I reached for my Heffy Doodle Banana Split cardstock and used the new Pinstripe stencil to add some Mustard Seed Distress Ink to the background to create a tone on tone look. I ADORE this striped look. It really makes me think of scrapbook paper, I was always a ‘B’ side girl with the subtle designs!

Next I took some white cardstock and cut out the star shape using my Stitched Stars dies. I love that this set has a large star die, perfect for creating star shaped cards! I then reached for my Sprinkled With Fun stencil and used a small blending tool to ink some candy style sprinkles on my card. I thought this actually started to look like a cookie, so I layered another kraft coloured star underneath, slightly offset so I could go with this theme!

For the sentiment, I used some pink craft foam, but first I stuck the foam to some cardstock before diecutting with the Celebrate Heffy Cuts die. I find that this helps prevent the foam from stretching. For the ‘YOU’ sentiment I used the new Rascal Alphabetters stamps and dies. OH, I LOVE that these have coordinating dies! You should really check them out! So fun and whimsical!

Thanks for stopping here and for hopping along. For your comment, why not tell me your favourite item from the new release! Mine is the Absotoothly Awesome Card Kit – such excellent value for money, and I love that you can choose to have it with dies or without dies! <3

Big hugs,

Lesley

Heffy Doodle’s Birthday BLOG HOP

on June 13, 2018

Well, well, well. Can you even believe it? A YEAR!!?

If you have come here from Amy Rysavy‘s blog, then you have made it to the last stop on our Heffy Doodle Birthday Blog hop! WOOHOO! For everyone else, you might want to head on over to the Heffy Doodle blog to start this hop, as it is jam packed full of amazing projects!

So, in case you don’t know, my name is Lesley Oman and I am the founder and creator of Heffy Doodle. For many years my hubby told me to create my own range of stamps, and last year I finally decided it was time to appease him. 😀 I drew some designs and started planning a Kickstarter campaign. It was exactly 1 year ago today that I shared my big secret plans with the world! I cannot believe how time has flown by, and I still marvel at the wonderful support I receive from customers, friends, family and this magnificent industry! I would like to say a massive thank you to each and every one of you for the part you have played in the development of my dreams. …. Enough sappiness, because its time to celebrate!

BLOG HOP PRIZES

Two lucky winners will receive a £50 gift voucher to the Heffy Doodle store. Leave a comment before noon on 26th June to qualify. The winners will be announced on the Heffy Doodle blog on June 24th.

Now, let’s take a look at my project!

Birthdays are cause for celebrations and BIG PARTIES, so i wanted my card to be exactly the same. I actually created the inside first, but before we go there, here is the outside. The background was created using the Heffy Doodle Stitched Bubble Background die and I cut the frame into it using the Lucky Clover Frames set. The bear is from the Unbearable Without You stamp set, balloons from the Party Palooza set, and I stamped a greeting from the new Everyday Sentiment Duos. I even used the NEW Heffy Memo tape to mask the stamp so i could get two colours. So tell me, do you think this lil bear looks pleasantly surprised?

Here’s why…

All his sweet friends have thrown him a beach birthday party! WOO! Of course i had to do it at the beach, because then i could include some of the new ocean critters from Oceans of Love and the turtle from the Shellabrate exclusive freebie ( you get it for free when you spend £35 in the Heffy Doodle store).

For the sky, i embossed the Swirly Cloud dies, and used distress inks and oxides for the sea and beachy mounds. Then it was stamp, colour and die cut for all my cute critters. I have used Happy Snappy Crocs, Honey Bunny Boo, Yappy Happy Mail, Oceans of Love, Unbearable Without you, Party Palooza and wingman (and the Shellabrate exclusive). For the number 1 on the cake, i just drew this freehand.

I kinda wish i was at this party! Don’t you!

Heffy Doodle & MISTI collaboration!

on February 26, 2018

Hello crafty friends,

Thanks for joining us on this Blog Hop collaboration between Heffy Doodle and My Sweet Petunia. I remember working in a craft shop many moons ago, and teaching people all about stamping. At that time, there was no choice but to practice, PRACTICE, PRACTICE in order to get great impressions. But lucky for us, we now have the MISTI – and I really do think that it is the Most Incredible Stamping Tool Invented!

If you are hopping along, you will have come from Giovana Smith. Scroll down to find out the next person on the hop, but first, let’s talk about prizes!

Two lucky commenters from the hop to win one of two prizes: a $50 shopping spree at www.mysweetpetunia.com and a 25 pound shopping spree at Heffydoodle.com – You must leave your comments no later than Sunday, March 4th, at 11:59 PM Central time and winners will be announced on Tuesday March 6th, on the Heffy Doodle and My Sweet Petunia blogs.

Today I have a project showcasing one of the ways that I use my MISTI tool when I am creating. It really does give you more flexibility, and not just with stamping. Today’s video shows how I used the MISTI when using embossing paste in different colours!

Here’s the VIDEO TUTORIAL

and for those who just want to see the photos, here’s a peek at my finished card!
