Big Panda Card with Leanne

Hi everyone! Leanne here and I'm excited to start sharing projects I've made with the new release. Today I'm showcasing Big Panda on a fun summer card. 

I Copic colored the panda and accessory images. I then used the coordinating Big Panda dies to cut them out. I love that there's a die included to make cuts around the arms so the panda can be holding something. I added my panda to a die cut Scalloped Square. I used the second largest die in the Scalloped Square 1 Small set.  I then added the Hello Summer sentiment which is included in the Big Panda set. 

My finished card measures 4.75" sqaure. Copic colors used: N2, N4, N6, W1, W3, RV10, RV04, RV06, YR12, YR14, YR18, YG11, YG13, Y15, BG10, BG11, BG13, B21, B23, V22, V25

Next, I made the background panel. I used the Sunburst Embossing Folder to give this panel its embossed sun rays. Before running it through my die-cut machine, I tapped a yellow ink pad directly onto one side of the folder. This gives a letterpress effect to the card stock. The resulting impression is not perfect, however I really liked how it turned out.  I lightly blended on some of the same yellow ink (Catherine Pooler Tiara) and added splatters to the panel before die-cutting it into a square. I used the largest die in the Stitched Squares set.

Designer's Choice: Holiday Hugs Card with Tina

Hello crafters, it’s Tina and today I am mixing and matching several sets for this designer’s choice blog post. The darling bear from Holiday Hugs is perfect for all your winter cards but I wanted to see how I could make him the focal point of a Spring birthday card!

To achieve this look, I had to mask off his scarf with some Post-it tape while I was stamping. It went really well and next I used the matching dies to cut him out. I love the special die for the arms! 

Whilst browsing through my stash I selected a few birthday related stamps like the big cake (Make A Wish), the gift (Holiday Hugs), the bouquet (Big Bunny) and the letters (Bighearted Bears).All these items were colored with alcohol markers in fun Spring colors.

My card base is an A2 size and made from white heavy weight card stock. For the pink gingham frame I used a Joyful Holiday paper, which was cut with the outer of the Frilly Frames Eyelet Lace dies and the largest of the Stitched Arched Dies.

Since the coloring was so bright, I opted for a white backdrop. The upper part is dry embossed with the Quilted Hearts folder, whilst the lower part was run through the Lots Of Dots folder (but that is difficult to see in the pictures). I added foam tape to the gingham frame and lower part of the background and adhered all the elements to my card base. Next, I added the cute bear and all his birthday accessories!

I love how the Brilliant Banner 2 Die perfectly fits on top of the arched frame. The combined sentiment was selected from the Happy Thoughts set and stamped in Versafine Onyx Black Ink. For some bling, I adhered a few Crystal Clear Jewels which are one of my favorites.

I hope you got inspired to experiment with stamp masking, it’s such a fun technique! Thank you for joining me and happy crafting!

Tree Branch Die Focused Card with Tina

Hi crafty friends, Tina here and what better way to create a ‘love themed’ card than to add two adorable birds (Love Birds) to a branch (Tree Branch die) and add a bunch of beautiful flowers! I absolutely love this branch die because it has a lovely shape and is long enough to stretch across your card design. I discovered that it is a perfect fit for the Wonky Windows Dies. You get so much more use out of your stash when you mix and match old and new products!

The branch die inspired me to choose for a mini slimline card today. I created a simple white card base and used a die from my stash to cut the beautiful blue heart paper from Flirty Flowers. Next, I cut out the trio of Wonky Windows twice, once from the blue paper and once from a white sheet of card stock that I had embossed with the Woodgrain Embossing Folder.

After gluing the heart design paper to my card base, I popped in the three wood grain windows which fitted like puzzle pieces. I stamped two adorable birdies from the Love Birds set and colored them with my Copics in bright blues and corals. This is such a fun color combo for Spring.

The big branch (Tree Branch die) was also cut from the wood grain paper to give that realistic texture. I needed lots of leaves from the same die set and also a bunch of flowers from the Spring Garden dies. All of them were colored with the same alcohol markers as the birds.

The sentiment was selected from the Love Birds set and stamped onto a small white strip with a red ink from my stash. The branch was glued across the trio of wonky windows as a base for the whole design. I mounted the birds and some flowers with foam tape. After adhering the sentiment strip I sprinkled a few coral hearts from the Red Heart Mix Drops.

Thank you for visiting the blog and happy crafting!

My Heart Card with Leanne

Hello everyone! Leanne here and I have another Valentine's Day card to share. Today's card showcases the My Heart stamp set.  I love the big and bold Valentine greetings in this little set. I've used them for both the outside and inside of my card.  

I started this card by embossing a white panel with the Quilted Hearts embossing folder.  I trimmed the panel a bit smaller than A2 size and adhered to a white A2 card base.  I used the Gift Card Envelope die to make a pink envelope. I stamped Happy Valentine's Day onto a 2"x3" mini note card to tuck into the envelope.  The edges of the note card have been lightly inked so there would be some contrast from the white background. I adhered the envelope to the background with foam squares. I then added some die cut hearts and postage stamp as embellishments.  

For the inside of the card I die cut a pink heart with the largest die included in the Stitched Heart 2 set.  I stamped the sentiment in red onto white card stock and then used the coordinating die to die cut. You could stamp the sentiment directly onto the pink heart, but I feel the die cut version stands out so much better.  

Thanks for stopping by today! I have a really fun project to share next Monday that you won't want to miss.  See you then!
