A Happy Hello



Hello crafty friends, Thanks for stopping by!
Today I am sharing another card using the April release by The Rabbit Hole Designs. 
To make this card, I started with a white top folding A2 card base, a white panel and a layering stencil which also comes with a coordinating die.
Using the white panel and the layering stencil, I created the floral background and then cut it down 2.5 inches and then adhered it to the base. I added a green strip and used the die cut to cut out a flower from the piece that I cut off. 
To make the card more fun i added a mini wobble behind the flower.

Absolutely Ribbiting!


Today starts another biweekly challenge at Addicted to Stamps & More. 
Our challenge for the next two weeks is to make your mark. This doesn't necessarily mean you have to use markers, you can use any coloring medium you'd like. 


To make my card, I started with a white top folding A2 card base. I created a background for tthe frog by using a stencil. I stamped the image on a seperate piece of cardstock, colored it using OLO markers and then fussy cut it out. To finish the card, I added a sentiment and popped up the image using foam tape.

Channeling My Inner Jaycee




I am up on the My Sweet Petunia blog today channeling my inner Jaycee Gasper. 
I watched a live with Jennifer and Jaycee using this die set and I just had to order it, it's so beautiful. I went back and watched the replay and crafted along with them. Jaycee has a way with ink blending like no other. I love how you get the colors with ink blending rather than colored cardstock. I am a fan! 

To make this card, I started with a white to folding A2 card base and a piece of white cardstock for the die cuts. I placed a Sticky Mat in the Original Misti to hold the die cut pieces as I ink blended. I didn't have the ink colors that they used on the live so I substituted distress inks. After I got all the pieces ink blended, I cut the outline pieces of the flowers and leaves out of goil foil paper.    

The outlines pieces to the flowers are very thin and delicate but they were so easy to add with the Precision Glue Press

To finish the card, I added the thanks sentiment cut twice out of white for dimension and glued it to a gold backer.

Another trip Around The Sun


Hello Crafty friends!
I am back with another card for our current Stay Crafty challenge over on A Blog Named Hero. Our challenge for the month of April is Happy Anniversary, which doesn't necessarily mean wedding anniversary. For my card this time I am celebrating another trip around the sun. 


To make this card, I started with a white top folding A2 card base and a white panel. I cut the floral wreath out of the white panel and then colored it using OLO markers. I attached it to the base using the Precision Glue Press which is a game changer especially when there are fine areas of a die cut that needs glue. To finish the card I added a sentiment also from Hero Arts. All products are linked below.

Special Day




Happy Tuesday! 
I have three posts for you today so be sure to scroll down.
This card uses the parameters from last weeks episode 208 of Craft Roulette.
the parameters are..

Project: Joy Fold card
Colors: Buggy Ride
Element: Stick(s) & stone(s)
Random: Trim(s) or Trimming(s)
How do they fit? 
Well it's a vertical Joy Fold card check. I love buggy rides in Charleston, SC so many beautiful flowers, check. The birdhouse is made of wood and wood is made of sticks, I used rhinestones for the stones, check. and lastly I trimmed the paper but I also put a trimming on the panel in the inside. 


To make this card, I started with purple card bases cut 5.5 X 7 scored at 4.25" and an inside card base cut 6 X 3 and scored at 3". 
Next I cut the all the pieces patterned paper a quarter of an inch smaller and gluded them to the card base. 
I stamped the birdhouse from the beauty of nature set, colored it and added that panel to the outside of the inside cardbase. To finish the card I added a panel to the inside of the inside card base and added a trim at the top and bottom.
