Heffy Doodle

NOTE – i am part of two hops today, one for Chibitronics and another for Heffy Doodle. To visit the other project click here to open in a new tab. Hop along on both posts for more chances to win.

Hello everyone,

Today I am super honored to be creating not one, but two projects in support of a very worthy cause – Autism Awareness Day!

To start the Chibitronic hop, please visit the Chibitronics blog here so you can go through the whole hop.

Here is my project which features some products from Heffy Doodle stamps (which actually has a sale right now!)

So incase you didn’t know, the brief for this hop was BLUE – as the tagline for Autism Awareness is ‘Shine a light on autism – Light it up blue’, and with CHibitronics we can ACTUALLY light it up in BLUE!

So blue LEDs were a must, and i thought i would use the Beary Big Heart stamp set, with the little bear holding the heart, and then make the heart light up. But instead of having a push button, I wanted a slide switch. The bunny (from Heffy Doodle Honey Bunny Boo stamp set) is attached to the ‘Slide me’ switch at the bottom – move it to the left and the bunny moves over to also hug the heart, lighting it up blue. Oh…btw, the Slide Me is from Heffy Doodle Interactively Yours stamp set.

These photos above were taken so you can see the LEDs behind the vellum, however after this, i covered the heart with glossy accents, it is less noticeable in the finished card.

For the sentiment i used the Lucky Heffy Cuts die along with some sentiments from the Heffy Doodle Lucky Friends stamp set – they go great together.

Right… let’s light this up!

TA-DA! I always think it’s quite magical! and for those of you who wish to see the circuit beneath all of this – here’s a little diagram of how i made it.

In addition, there is some copper tape on the back of the slider, which connects the broken section in the copper tape when you slide the bunny across.

Thanks for stopping by, please head back to the Chibitronics blog to see the next person on the list.

And remember to wear something blue today & keep Autism Awareness close to your heart. <3

x hugs

Lesley

Hello crafty friends,

I have a video today on how I made an Easter card with four different shaker panels. This card was inspired by an oval die that was in the MFT Tree-mendous die set – i thought it looked like an Easter egg!  Take a look!

I do love an interactive card, so I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to create something bright, colourful and full of Heffy Doodle goodness!  These Honey Bunny Boo stamp sets have been a big hit so far, and they are perfect for Easter cards when combined with the Easter Heffy Cuts die.

Scroll on down to watch the video, and please feel free to leave me a comment.

thanks for hopping by. Happy Crafting!

Hey guys,

Thank you to everyone who joined me for tonights CCWM LIVE stream. I started a little early today because we had friends over to play some boardgames. I’m super pleased that i managed to get this SUPER SPECIAL card done – as it is for our daughter Piper who turns 7 this week. Let’s take a look!

So in case you aren’t familiar with my LIVE streams, lets recap. On a Friday night, at 9pm GMT, i turn on my camera and get crafty. I would love you to join in! It’s so wonderful interacting with everyone and answering questions as I go. I also love it when the viewers help me make decisions along the way.

Sometimes, like this Friday 16th march, normal service is slightly interrupted. It’s Piper’s Birthday so I will be supervising FOUR seven year old girls for their first big sleepover! AIE! But when this happens, I try to do another stream mid week – so hit that notification button over on my YouTube Channel —-> Hungry Heffy You Tube channel! That way you will be told when I do a surprise sesh! 🙂

If you want to watch the full unedited version, scroll below, but please note – it is in real time.

Let’s get this party started! First, I added some inked areas on my card using three distress ink colours – Cracked Pistachio, Worn Lipstick and Shaded Lilac, then spritzed with some water droplets.

The stamps are from mama elephant – the party animals set. I love these guys! So cute! I went for some more pastel colours with my copics.

For these, i blended everything out to white – this helps keep everything looking nice and light. When I knew where i wanted my critters to go, I picked my sentiment. I stamped it using my MISTI and used Rangers Liquid Platinum embossing powder.

For the speech bubble i used Heffy Doodle’s Whatcha Saying stamp and set with Lawn Fawns minty fresh ink. It matches the cracked pistachio colour up top. I added some extra stamped images to the background using Lawn Fawn holiday party animal set (for the music notes) and then the Lawn Fawn party animal set. Ohh its a veritable party over here!

On the inside, I wanted to add Piper’s name. It’s an unusual name over here so she never finds anything with her name on it. I used the Heffy Doodle Jet Alphabetters to stamp the letters, then added drops with my copic markers.

I thought i would add a little chickie on the inside with a balloon, and dug out some glitter stickers to add the number 7 to it. super cute huh!?

If you want to watch the full unedited video – see below, and i hope you will join me for a Come Craft With Me LIVE craft stream in the future!

See you then! Happy Crafting!
