Welcome to another "Cards by Kendra" blog post! Here’s little humor during these crazy times! I thought I’d use this “Tan It” stamp set from Art Impressions because it accurately describes how I’m feeling right now.

(This is due to the pigments in the oxide ink). When I wiped it with a wet paper towel, I was amazed!! It was exactly the look I wanted. I figured out that if I used just...

Welcome to a new Cards By Kendra blog post!   I'm excited to share this bright and colorful handmade card that I recently made for a "kite" themed card swap in the Facebook Group "Card Swaps for All Seasons".  The products that I used are from the  Fly a Kite stamp  set,   Fly a Kite die set  and the  Sunshine Scene die set  from Hello Bluebird.   Sunshine Fly a Kite Handmade Card I ran the sunshine scene die through my die cutting machine four times.  The first was on yellow glitter paper, the second with white glitter paper, the third on regular white card stock and the fourth on blue glitter card stock.
