The latest card kit is adorable and it features Wobbling Characters. These cute little characters are mounted onto a paper spring/coil (dies come in the kit) so you can actually wiggle and wobble them. The coil dies are versatile and can be used with any other die so now you can make anything into a wobbler (words, butterflies, animals, etc.). You can check out the subscription box site for the unboxing and a few demos – Crafters Companion Box site. This pretty purple box contains over 85 elements including metal dies, clear acrylic stamps, envelopes, ribbon and lots of beautiful colored and patterned papers. The colors in this set are really beautiful pale pinks, blues, creams and grays with lots of coordinating patterned paper to match.
Sara Davies, the owner of Crafter’s Companion, always puts together a fun kit that is packed with lots of crafty items and new techniques. My kit was delivered with auto-ship through HSN as always. You can check out Crafter’s Companion website for more information. This kit, as always, is a wonderful bargain. There is a Facebook group that you can join once you subscribe which provides lots of community support and loads of examples; plus, Sara also has a monthly card kit site that you can refer to for demos/project pages.
For stamping, I used the Spectrum Noir quick dry inks and the Harmony Water Reactive inks. I also used the Spectrum Noir Tri-blend markers for all of my coloring. I find they are easy to use and blend colors without having to put much thought into it. CC has an amazing range of coloring products that even a novice can use and look like an artist. For glue, I used a combination of xyron tape, 3D glue gel and I used collall wet glue to raise up a few of the sentiments. I would also recommend the Crafter’s Companion glass mat. It is a true game changer. Once you work on a glass surface you will agree!
Here are a few of the cards I made – let me know which you like best…..
Let me know if you have any questions, and I would love to see what you create too so please feel free to share! Happy Crafting!!
