Happy Friday, all! :) Today I wanted to create something with the adorable Hey Pretty Kitty and The Snuggle is Real stamp sets from The Greeting Farm. I've had these in my stash for a few months and recently "unearthed" them (anyone else's craft room out of control? LOL!). I thought the smaller people images in the stamp sets would be perfect for some center ink blending! And adding stencils into the mix adds some patterns and interest, too.

You make you work look so easy. You are always an inspiration to me. Both cards are adorable and your friend will love the one you send to her.

[@susiemartin8172]

Love the matching envelopes. Such a nice touch

[@lizbennett220]

I like seeing the envelopes too!

[@victorialehmann6879]

This is such a nice looking blending via stencils. Thanks so much for sharing.

[@pamboedeker6705]

I really like a simple envelope finish that matches the card inside. Thanks for sharing those. I hope you'll continue to do them. I've been sending simple little pun cards to my 4 year old grandson. This small stencil background will be perfect for them.

[@kiwisunshine9631]

This was fun, and very relaxing to listen to - thank you!

[@danaparker3628]

You make it all look so easy. I love your videos with your beautiful, calming voice. Your cards are always wonderful and I have learned a lot from you. Thank you for all the time and effort you put into your instructional videos!

[@MultiplicityCrafts]

Aww, that's a cute idea! Looks lovely!

[@anikamercier2651]

So cute! Love these stamps! I also love the idea of using the stencil on the envelope - it looks so nice!

[@daisyniemeyer8490]

I love that you customize the envelopes to the cards. Such a great and thoughtful touch. 💕

[@pambotter365]

How cute are those girls and pets. Love the touch of color behind each one. I always decorate my envelopes too. Seems to bring it all together. TFS!

[@katherinehaught7950]

These cards are absolutely adorable as so many of your cards are. I bet you couldn’t make a ho hum card if you tried. Your unique touches blow me away & make watching your videos that much more interesting to watch & sometimes watch again. Thank you for all your inspiration. Makes me want to jump up & dig out my supplies or order the things you used. BIG HUGS !!🤗🤗🤗❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍

[@carolyngurney5376]

I really enjoyed the small area stenciling and the stenciling of the envelopes too.

[@kathyperry]

So cute, and I like the added stencil work on the envelopes! Very creative! Thanks for your inspiration.

[@nsbhater]

You are honestly so talented 💖

[@annakickan]

Love when you do a matching envelope. Thank you for always inspiring.

[@HeddaHopscotch]

These are darling cards and envelopes! I have also started making envelopes when I am making the cards so they are ready to go! Thanks Kristina!

[@kristinevencel2898]

I have been decorating my envelopes because you have motivated me to do that!!! Thank you so much for the inspiration, Kristina! These are such adorable cards! ❤️

[@craftylemur]

Lovely cards Kristina. Great technique. I love the matching envelopes and coloured stamps 💕

[@wendyodell356]

Such cute lil stamps. I AM surprised you haven't used them before now especially the kitty one. Love the way you colored them and offered detailing how to use the markers for certain detailing. I am so so thankful for that Kristina ❤❤❤

[@suzimetcalfe8423]

Thanks for continuing to educate this old gal! One of these days, I'm going to invest in copics, and I'll be ready becuz of you!

[@teresadoyle1396]

These are so stinking cute and yes, having them done this far is half the battle. I find its when I don't have it finished on the inside or maybe the envelope needs to be made. That's when I need one quick and don't have the time to finish it before mailing.

[@cathyosborne6676]

Very inspiring as always Kristina!😍

[@maryannemillis1750]

LOVE that you do the envelope too!! You are amazing!

[@LisaTilsonMyCardTrip]

Beautiful Kristina, especially the coordinating envelopes!

[@wendymarsh2052]

Awwwww, how cute. Cool idea for all of our tiny stamps. Thank you again for sharing with us. I love your work!

[@deniseferguson8589]

I love these backgrounds Kristina! Thank you for sharing them!

[@sharonjones841]

Wow, Kristina! These cards and envies are SO gorgeous! I love this idea!

[@deborahcarr4058]

LOVE having the coordinating envelopes!

[@calligraphycardsshazinoz]

Loved the visual eye catching simplicity of the centre blending with stencils. And carrying it over to to envelopes looked brilliant great work! Oh to remember these techniques!! Hugs from winters Downunder. 😆😊❤️🙏🏻

[@wufflemann]

Love the matching envelopes!

[@buddiegirl]

Love how you matched the pattern to the envelope.

[@czdesign]

Seriously adorable and the matching envelopes are such a great touch. You’re frickin’ awesome. 🤩

[@JenE1098]

Love the stencil work...great layers of colors!

[@teresaselby3536]

Great cards! Love the colors too. Thanks for an awesome sharing and have a great weekend.

[@mrscms831]

Lovely as always. So darn CUTE! I have been to the etsy shops looking for stamps and before you know it, i had collected myself $200 worth! Shopping cart still open, i have to figure that one out. But to receive those cards with envelopes that look as put together as the card is totally worth it.

[@NancyLynn]

So stinkin cute Kristina and I love the coordinating envelopes too...TFS!

[@nanwool]

Great video! I never thought of using a stencil on the envelope. Fantastic idea. Love ❤️ your videos

[@kathrynd6779]

I saw someone on FB selling a huge bag of vintage stamps for $50 and I thought of you. I really love the colors you used for each of the cards!

[@Tavieme]

This is going to sound weird but I so appreciate your inclusiveness.. your creativity goes without saying... it's always breathtaking.

[@sTarRyNiiTeX]

[@sallygreiner9939]

Love getting new ideas for using stencils! Thank you! P.S. I went to the DNA shop in Bermuda on Wednesday but they were late opening and I couldn’t stick around. I was so disappointed because I loved what I saw during your live post on FB. Bermuda was awesome though!😊

[@stefaniestaniak4329]

Very cute. I love the stencil over the blending. Where do you buy your vintage stamps? I think they are so fun and would be a great addition to all the birthday cards I send to my nieces and nephews. Thanks Kristina, your cards are always inspiring.

[@mayragonzalez3655]

[@rhondabeckwith8782]

Adorable

[@DogplayBDA]

Kristina can i ask why you would use the blending tools over ink blending brushes, just curious.

[@ecedegirmenci4370]

İ love it 😘 (turkey)

[@DeputatKaktus]

Being a guy I seem to be a bit of a rarity in the comment section of this type of video. Regardless, let me tell you that I thoroughly enjoyed it. I have no idea how I landed here, though, but I started off with some videos about Sketchnoting. Initially I just wanted something to spruce up my note taking. Then somehow a bunch of PITT markers and a sketchbook materialized in my bag. Then I started looking at Copic markers. I think we all know where this is going, so here we are. The plot twist here is: I couldn’t really draw properly if my life depended on it. But I can do some doodles. I suck at crafting, as I seem to have two left hands (or, if you are a leftie: two right hands). I know my way around cameras, though. I know, I‘m a weirdo. What the heck am I doing here - I don’t belong here. I think. Anyhoo, thanks again for making this video!

[@janetmuir6011]

thank you

[@rochelgarfield9662]

Can you do this with regular markers?

[@MaryK-iw9xo]

Kristina - I notice you added a ‘forever’ stamp with another stamp on one of the envelopes. Is that because you liked how they looked or did you need more postage? I am wondering how you decide how much postage you need. Thanks.

[@kwernerdesign]

Both. :)

[@catharinegenaw2381]

Always love your cards, but absolutely smitten with everything you do with envelopes, especially the addressing videos! I even got a stamp storage book like yours. Can you share your source for vintage stamp purchases please and thanks!

[@jasmineleopard7593]

she links it in the description, its a link to her blog where she shares where you can find them :)

[@catharinegenaw2381]

Thank you Jasmine! I should have thought of that! :)

[@alessandrascibona4873]

fantastic... excuse me i didn't understand. the pens you use are called copyc coloring?and where can i buy it and costs?thanks a lot in advance

[@kwernerdesign]
