Art Journaling Inspired by Collage Papers with Vicky Papaioannou

Hi friends! Happy Saturday! Please join me in a warm welcome back to a very special guest on our blog: Vicky Papaioannou! She’s delighting us once again with her magic touch to art journaling! For this particular installment she was inspired by the fabulous Tim Holtz idea-ology Serendipity Collage Papers (which were included in our very popular April 2025 card kit!) as well as bringing out some older favorites like the classic Tim Holtz Crazy Birds stamps and adding a fun sentiment with the Tim Holtz idea-ology Theories Quote Chips, as well as layering in some fun texture with the Tim Holtz idea-ology Collector Ephemera! Be sure to watch the video for all the details and enjoy!

Hanging Happy Eggs | Let’s Get Crafty With Caly!
Hi everyone! It’s Caly Person here today!
I’m sharing a coloring Easter card using the Happy Eggs set. This set takes me back to the basics with stamping, which I LOVE! I also added some branches and details from the Whimsical Branch Frame to hang these eggs from.
The background is first ink-blended and then stenciled with the Hippity Hoppity stencil using texture paste. Be sure to check out the video below to see this card come together!
WATCH THE VIDEO:
While the background air-dried, I ink-blended the Whimsical Branches, flowers, and leaves. I also used this time to stamp the colorful Happy Eggs.
Details are always important, so I took the time to ink-blend and stamp things. The eggs are each stamped with two shades of each color. I added bows to each egg, die-cut from the She Gnome die set.
I strung the eggs using White Iridescent Cord and finished by embellishing the card with Pastel Ice Embellishments.
I hope you like it!
