Rounded Rectangle Mat Die Focused Card with Tina

Hello crafters, it’s Tina and today I am making a fun birthday card with a bunch of cute kitties. The winter has been quite cold, so I thought these sweeties needed some warm sweaters too! I just added a few extra lines with a fine black marker to the stamped images to create that look.

After I made a white card base (which seems to be my favorite color lately!), I cut two layers with different sizes of the Rounded Rectangle Mat dies. The larger one from teal paper (Dots & Stripes Pastels) was mounted to card base with foam tape to create instant dimension. The smaller white mat will be the background for my scene. First, I added extra texture to this piece by running it through the die cutting machine using the beautiful Buffalo Plaid Diagonal die.

After masking of the bottom, I used some Antique Linnen Distress Oxide for the floor portion of the scene. Then, I splattered some Salvaged Patina ink on the top part for added interest.

After gluing this piece to the teal mat, I started stamping and cutting all the elements I needed for this card. I selected three cute kitties (Cat Antics and Party Pets), a mailbox (Bighearted Bears) and a letter (Snail Mail).

For the coloring, I went with Copic markers in red and teal tones. As mentioned before, I added a few lines to create the ‘sweaters’ for the cats and added white gel pen details to customize them.   

I love the large sentiments from Big Bold Greetings and their matching dies so I stamped the ‘Happy Birthday’ in Versafine Onyx Black ink.

Next, I could create my little scene and add the beautiful sentiment (which consists of several die cut layers glued together to give it that sturdy look). As a final embellishment, I sprinkled a few teal jewels onto the card (Pastel Jewels Mix).

Thank you for joining me and happy crafting!

Designer's Choice: Distinctive Door Die Focused Card with Alma

Hello everyone, Alma here. Christmas is here! I wish you all a fantastic Christmas season with your friends and family! Today, I’d like to show you a very special card – a Leporello card. 

For this, I scored a piece of cardstock into three sections and die-cut the background three times using the beautiful Distinctive Door Dies and the Distinctive Door Holiday Add-on Dies. 

I crafted the roof with the Buffalo Plaid Straight Die. What I love most about this card are the colorful lights and the snow, which make it feel so festive. I drew the snow with a white gel pen.

For the design, I die-cut many wagons from the Holiday Express Stamp set. I also used motifs from the Santa Claus Lane Stamp set. What a long train full of gifts and joy!

I hope this celebration will also bring you joy, happiness, and gifts. Merry Christmas!
