Party Fox Week - Day 5




Hi Everyone! Ashley here today sharing Party Fox! I love these party animals, are you ready to check them out??!


To create my card I started by water coloring a green background. I mixed in a little blue to add some variety to the color. 

Next, I stamped and die cut the foxes. These guys are adorable, don't you think? I colored them in fun festive colors and then added them to the background. I wanted a soft but fancy sentiment so I heat embossed "Happy Birthday" in Rose Gold Embossing Powder. 


I finished the card with some patterned paper I had in my stash and a few crystals. 

Thanks for stopping by!

Party Fox Week - Day 3



Hello friends,

Katie here.  I've got a card to share with you today featuring a pair of foxes and they're ready to party! 


I stamped the foxes and some of the party accessories with Versafine Onyx Black ink and embossed them with Clear Embossing powder. I colored the images with Copic markers and die cut the images using the coordinating Party Foxes Elle-ments dies.


I pulled out some older stamp sets and dies to create a background and sentiment for the Party Foxes. I die cut Aqua cardstock using the Chevron Mat Elle-ments die and adhered it to a white notecard.
I die cut white card stock with the Starburst Elle-ments die and added some Distress Oxide Ink in Mustard Seed. I affixed the foxes to the Starburst die cut and adhered it to the Chevron mat.  For the sentiment, I pulled out the Banner Bits stamp set and coordinating Elle-ments die. I stamped the banner outline and sentiment with Versafine Onyx Black ink and heat embossed the banner with Clear Embossing powder.

I hope this card and the Party Foxes make your day a little more festive and fun!  
Thanks for stopping by!

Party Fox Week - Day 2



Hello there!!

It's Yainea here today sharing a fun birthday card featuring Party Fox. Every cardmaker knows it's important to have a bunch of birthday cards in hand and everyone love foxes, right? (right?? Because they're super cute!!) so this set is just a prefect addition to our stash ;)


I had a lot fun coloring this cheerful guys with my alcohol markers! Once I had them all colored and cut using the coordinating die set, I started coloring the background. I used two tones of ink to create an ombre effect and then sprinkled some water and white paint on top to add a bit of texture.

I cut an extra layer for my card out of white cardstock using the Burst die and heat embossed the sentiment with white embossing powder over a black cardstock banner.
Finally, I arranged all the elements on my background using dimensional adhesive and added a little cloth bow that I had on my stash.


I hope you like my project for today and feel inspired to create something!

Thank you so much for stopping by, have a nice day!

Black Friday Sale Continued & Party Fox Week - Day 1







Hello this is Nicky with you today and I'm sharing a new card featuring Party Fox from the latest Avery Elle release.



For this card I ink blended a background panel using my Clarity Stencil Brushes.  Colours used are Distress Inks in Spun Sugar and Squeezed Lemonade.  I stamped the sentiment using Ranger Archival Ink in Potting Soil and then applied this panel to my 110lb white cardstock base.  Next I took another panel of white cardstock and die cut it twice using each of the dies from Postage Stamp.  I adhered the two together on the reverse then applied foam tape and applied the double frame to the card.



On Bristol Smooth cardstock I stamped all of my images again using Ranger Archival Ink in Potting Soil.  I watercolour painted everything using Kuretake Zigs, highlighted some points with a Uni-Ball Signo white gel pen then die cut everything and used foam tape to apply them to the scene.



The final touch was to simply grab a silver glitter gel pen and dot in the tiniest dots of sparkle for a pretty glint when the card is handled.

Hope you like the card, I appreciate you coming along to read the blog today, see you next time!

Black Friday Sale & Embellished Heart Week





Hello!  Amy here and I'm so excited to be creating for the new year and all things "not" Christmas.  Valentine's is one of my favorite holidays to craft for.

My card features the new Embellished Heart Elle-ments.  It features this large heart cut out with the cut decoration on the outside.  

Embellished Heart

I started by die cutting the Embellished Heart into a white panel of cardstock.  Then I ink blended Peacock Feathers, Scattered Straw, and Worn Lipstick Distress Inks onto Bristol Smooth cardstock.  I concentrated colors so that my heart would have the 3 color variation.  I added my heart panel over the to of my ink blended background with foam adhesive.  

I added some cute Copic colored images from Party Pals.  These little pigs are just adorable and "in love".  The banner in the corner of the heart was added with foam adhesive as well as the pigs and heart.

Embellished Heart Die Week - Day 1



Hey there!  It's Caryn here today with a couple of cards I created using the fantastic Embellished Heart Die.  I love when I can get more bang for my buck so this die is a great investment as it can give you a multitude of looks.  The die cuts an embellished aperture from your material leaving the "positive" heart die cut.  Simple to create to totally different cards with no waste!


I started by die cutting a piece of self adhesive wood veneer paper.  This gave me the negative part with the aperture and detailed border and also a heart from the centre.  I used similar supplies for both cards so whipping them up didn't take very long at all.  


For the first card I started with an A2 card base and carefully centred the die cut wood veneer to the front.  From the card I created last week using the Three Hearts Die I had the white hearts left over so used a couple of them on these cards (tip - always keep your die cuts - you never know when they'll come in handy).  I lightly brushed some Orchid pigment ink around the smaller heart to let it pop off the card a little  - it's subtle but it adds a lot of texture.  To bring the elements together I bunched some gold thread and held it down with some adhesive and popped the inked heart die cut onto it with foam tape.  I created the sentiment using the new Simple Sentiments stamp set, heat embossed with white powder and then die cut using one of the co-ordinating dies.  I added a few tiny black gems to tie the black sentiment in.


For the second card I used the Embellished Heart die again and die cut it from a white panel off-centre.  I popped this onto a white A2 card using foam tape and then adhered the wood veneer heart into the space and trimmed off the overhanging edge.  I grabbed another of my leftover hearts from my last card, the same gold thread and another white embossed sentiment and finished off this time with some gold Stickles around the edge of the heart to accent the thread.

Three Hearts Week - Day 5



Hi Friends! How are you? Ashley here sharing Three Hearts Die and so much more!

I love conversation heart candy, do you? I made my own paper version! Let's get started...


I started my card by die cutting the Three Hearts Die. Next I used Distress Ink to ink the cut outs AND behind the cut outs. This made a lot of fun hearts that I could add sentiments to. I picked several Simple Sentiments and heat embossed them on the hearts. I added the small black hearts with Tons of Hearts Frame and finished the card with a sentiment from And Then.


I love how this card turned out! Thanks for stopping by!

Three Hearts Week - Day 4



Hey everyone!  Heather Campbell here!  I'm back continuing the fun using the new Three Hearts die.
For my card today, I thought it'd be really fun to create a shaker with this die!  


First, I die cut the card front panel with the Three Hearts die.  Then, I ink blended a background and created everything to create my shaker.  


I used the adorable cactus from Stuck On You. I had so much fun coloring these images in!  I assembled my shaker using sequins that coordinated colors with the cactus.  Finally, I finished it off with hearts and sequins!

Thanks so much for stopping by and sharing part of your day with me!  Have a great one!

Three Hearts Week - Day 3



Hello friends,

Katie here with a card to share with you today featuring the Three Hearts Die.  I just adore the latest addition to the Three Shape series of dies. It's perfect for Valentines Day! 


I positioned the die onto an A2 panel of white card stock and die cut the trio of hearts a few times.  I adhered the die cut panel on top of a panel of watercolor card stock colored with Distress Oxide inks and sprayed with water.


Inside the hearts I tucked the pair of cacti from the Stuck on You stamp set.  I added some of the tiny sentiments from this set inside the heart shapes.  They fit perfectly and remind me of conversation hearts!  I trimmed the panel and adhered it to a red A2 note card.

Three Hearts Week - Day 2



Hey there, Caryn here sharing a clean and simple card featuring the gorgeous new Three Hearts Die.  This die, like the previously released Three Stars die has so many uses and not just for Valentines day either.  I selected three of the striped papers from the Sorbet Collection paper pack and used a great sentiment (LOVE the font) from the new Some Bunny stamp set.


I die cut a white panel using the three hearts die and adhered the different patterned papers behind each aperture ensuring the stripes are angled in different directions.  I stamped the sentiment in Fog Dye ink and finished off by wrapping some white twine around the panel and popping it using foam tape onto a white card base.

Three Hearts Week - Day 1 & A Winner



Hey there this is Nicky with you today and I'm sharing a card I've made using the lovely new and ever so useful 'Three Hearts Die' from Avery Elle's newest release.  This die will make your Valentine's cards incredibly easy!


For this card I called upon an old favourite stamp set Woodland Wonders.  I fancied this card as a love card from parent to younger child and so I imagined it like a children's book.

The card starts with a panel of white cardstock which I die cut using the Large Pierced Scallops Elle-ments die.  I then ink blended the edge softly using Distress Oxide Ink in Tumbled Glass.   I then die cut the Three Hearts Die.  I ink blended the negative heart cuts  with more of the Tumbled Glass and also with Cracked Pistachio and stamped a few tufts of grass from Woodland Wonders.


I stamped the sentiment 'LOVE you' in the top right hand corner using the new 'And Then' sentiment set then applied dimensional foam tape to the back of the panel and applied it to a Kraft cardstock base.  I applied adhesive to the back of each ink blended heart and recessed them carefully through the openings.  On Bristol Smooth cardstock I stamped the characters from Woodland Wonders, I then watercolour painted them then die cut and applied them with more dimensional foam tape.


To finish out this card I applied some toning sequins and then created a white paper writing insert inside the card (80lb weight) and stamped that with another sentiment from the 'And Then' sentiment set which reads:  You Make My Heart Happy.


I appreciate you stopping by to read about this card today, I hope you are a little inspired - happy crafting!
