Distinctive Door Holiday Add-on Die Focused Cards with Leanne

Hello everyone! Leanne here and I'm sharing a fun way to use the Distinctive Door Holiday Add-on dies. I have made two cards that feature a shelf all decked out for the holidays. I'm always trying to come up ways to stretch my supplies and thought some of the dies in Distinctive Door Holiday Add-on set would make cute little decor pieces for a wall shelf. 

For both cards I used the Build-a-Birdhouse dies with the Distinctive Door Holiday Add-on dies to create my decorated shelf scenes. This first card is A2 size and features a shorter shelf with one birdhouse. The stamped sentiment on this card is from the Inside Greetings Seasons set. 

In the Build-a-Birdhouse set there's dies to create the houses, little birds, and a pole. The pole die is what I used to make the shelf. You can connect two poles together to make a longer shelf which is what I did for the mini slimline card. I was able to fit three birdhouses on this longer shelf.  

To dress up the shelves for Christmas, I used dies in the Distinctive Door Holiday Add-on set to create the snow cover on the shelves, the garland plus tiny bows, and the trees. 

The large greeting on the mini slimline card is from the Season's Greeting stamp set. I used the coordinating dies to cut out the word "greetings" and fussy cut the word "season's". 

I hope my cards inspire you to find ways to stretch your supplies and use them in an unexpected or new way. Thanks for stopping by today! I'll be back here next week to share some Christmas tags.

Wild Cherry Die Focused Card with Marine

Hi crafty friends, Marine here with you today, back with a bright and cheerful card showcasing the Wild Cherries, one of the fruit themed die sets from the Summer 2024 release. So amazing!

I started off by creating a light pink cloudy background on a 5,5 x 4,25 inches Strathmore bristol smooth panel using a stencil from my stash along with spun sugar oxide ink. Next I used a cherry stencil, from my stash again, along with worn lipstick, festive berries, shabby shutters, mowed lawn, vintage photo and ground espresso oxide inks, and created a beautiful cherry background. I splattered water all over the panel and dried it using a paper towel. I also mixed some ground espresso oxide ink with water and used a small brush to add more texture to my panel, and then did the same with copic opaque white ink.

Next I cut all my bits and pieces: cherries, stems, branches, leaves, flowers and bird out of colored cardstock, and used oxide inks to add shadows and more depth to each element. Here is a detailed list of the products I used: • Wild Cherries for the cherries, stems, leaves • Out On A Limb for the branches • Wicker Basket for the flowers • Build A Birdhouse for the bird

I cut a Frilly Frames Hexagon scalloped panel out of vellum, temporarily taped it to my stenciled panel using washi tape, and then attached all the die-cut pieces on the vellum using 1mm and 2mm foam squares, as well as 3mm glue dots and liquid glue, leaving enough space in the center for my Punny Fruit Greeting. I first white heat embossed "You're the" and "On top of my day", leaving enough space for the word "Cherry" that I stamped using festive berries oxide ink and then heat embossed with clear embossing powder. Next I removed the washi tape pieces, flipped my vellum panel over, added liquid glue behind each die-cut piece, and then attached the panel to my stenciled background.

For the finishing touches, I added a black dot on the bird's eye using black nuvo drops, highlights and details to the elements using a white gel pen, and three dots in the center of each flower using white nuvo drops. And that's it! This card was super fun to make, I love those beautiful cherries and how the word "Cherry" turned out so glossy. 

And I think that the addition of that little birdie makes the card even cuter, doesn't it? Thanks so much for stopping by, and see you next time!

Build-a-Bowl Die Focused Card with Marine

Hello crafty friends, Marine here, I'm thrilled to be back on the blog with this lovely card featuring Build A Bowl. As very often I mixed and matched items from different sets, and instead of using the bowl with fruits (which I'll certainly do in the coming weeks), I turned it into a planter to create a sweet garden scene.

The first thing I did was create a stenciled background that would match my garden theme nicely. I cut a kraft panel using the largest Stitched Square die, and used a stencil from my stash along with white pigment ink, and shabby shutters, mowed lawn, spun sugar and worn lipstick oxide inks to make a pretty lattice. I mixed some vintage photo oxide ink with water and used a small brush to add splatters to my panel, and then did the same with copic opaque white ink.

Next I cut a scalloped square out of light brown woodgrain cardstock using the second largest Scalloped Square 1 Large die, and turned it into a frame by cutting an opening out of it using the third largest Stitched Square die. I applied a little bit of vintage photo oxide inks on the edges, and attached my scalloped frame on the stenciled panel using 1mm foam squares.

I picked all the bits and pieces from different die sets, cut them out of colored cardstock, and used oxide inks to add shadows and more interest to each element. Here is a detailed list of the products I used: • Build A Bowl for the planter • Mini Grass Border for the grass • Build A Birdhouse for the birdhouse, birds, pole • Spring Garden for the tulips • Winter Greenery for the tall leaves. I attached everything on my panel, starting with the bowl and grass, and then added all the remaining pieces using 1mm and 2mm foam squares, as well as liquid glue.

For my greeting, I started off by cutting the different Brilliant Banner 1 components out of dark gray cardstock and black cardstock. I white embossed "For my tweet friend" from Little Birdie on the front piece, assembled the whole banner using 1mm foam squares and liquid glue, and attached it below the planter using 1mm foam squares again.

Finally I added a black dot to each bird's eye, and highlights and details to most of the elements using a white gel pen. And that's it! 

It took me quite a few brainstorming sessions to figure out what I wanted to do with the Build A Bowl dies, my mojo had left me on this one, but I'm so happy of how it turned out, it's such a darling little scene, and I hope you like it. Thanks so much for stopping by, and see you next week!
