Garden Critters Cards with Tina and Vanessa

Hello crafty friends, Tina here with a card featuring the adorable Garden Critters stamp and die set. I just love all the cute images and they work really well with the Garden Fairy set. So, I decided to combine both sets to create a happy outdoor scene!

First, I stamped and die cut all my images and colored them with my Copic markers. For extra details I used my white gel pen. I wanted to create three mini scenes that together would become a complete setting.

After die cutting a purple panel with a slim line die and some pattern paper from my stash, I made the arch frames with the smallest of the Stitched Arch dies. To get these arches positioned evenly it’s best to start with the middle one and then cut the ones to the left and the right. That gives you more control regarding the spacing in between.

Next, I cut a white panel slightly smaller than the purple one. This would be my background and I inked up a green sky with a cloud stencil. I glued the background to the purple panel with liquid glue. You can never have enough birthday cards, so I went with a sentiment from the Garden Critters set, stamping it directly to the background with Versafine Onyx Black ink.

Then, I started building my three mini scenes, using foam tape were needed for dimension. Lastly, I adhered the entire scene to a white card base and added a few Iridescent Clear Jewels for that extra bling!

It’s been a cloudy, rainy day but creating this happy Spring card really made my smile! I hope you will have fun too with this darling set! Thank you for visiting the blog and happy crafting!

Hello to you! Vanessa here with a set of cute gift boxes using Garden Critters.

For the matchboxes, I used a die from Mama Elephant, die-cut them from blue cardstock and assembled them. Now I die-cut the backgrounds from the clouds patterned paper from Spring Fever paper and adhered the panels. To the bottom of each rectangle, I added a strip of green paper. Then I stamped the images, including a few images from Panda Party, colored them with Copics, die-cut everything with the matching dies and adhered the elements to the boxes with foam tape.

After I had stamped the sentiment strips, I trimmed them, adhered the strips and used a white gel pen to add highlights to the images.

I love having little boxes at hand to give small gifts. Have a wonderful weekend and thanks for stopping by!
