Scalloped Tags Holiday Projects with Anja and Vanessa

Hi everyone, Anja here and today I'm sharing this duo of cute Christmas tags that I created with the Scalloped Tag Square Dies. They come in two sizes and I paired them up with the Gleeful Reindeer Stamps.

For the bigger tag, I cut out a square of patterned paper from the Very Merry 6x6 Paper pack to help building a little winter scene. I stamped the reindeers and gifts in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored them with Copic Markers. 

The smaller tag is a actually a shaker. Therefore, I die cut the scalloped tag twice from petrol cardstock and created a window by using a square die for one of the die-cuts. I backed the window with a piece of acetate and adhered strips of foam tape to the edges. Before adhering the back, I filled the shaker with white and silver sequins as well as aqua flakes.

I stamped the sentiments (the 'Merry Christmas' is included in the Merry Mice set) in VersaMark Ink onto red cardstock banners and white heat embossed them. I used gingham ribbon and natural jute string to finish off my tags.

Thank you so much for stopping by! Have an amazing day!

Hello to you! Vanessa here today using the Scalloped Tag Circle Dies on a new Christmas card.

First, I covered the front of my card base with red checked patterned paper from the Classic Gingham 6x6 Paper. Now I trimmed a panel of Kraft cardstock slightly smaller than the card and masked off a hill. I inked the panel with white pigment ink, removed the mask and stamped the snow using the Frosty Flurries Stamps.

Then I die-cut the circle tag from the panel and adhered it to the card, raising the tag with foam tape and tying on baker's twine.

I stamped the cute fox from Foxy Christmas Stamps onto white cardstock, colored it with Copics, die-cut it with the matching die and adhered it to the card with foam tape.

Finally, I stamped and heat-embossed the sentiment from Jolly Gingerbread Stamps onto a strip of green cardstock, trimmed it and adhered it.

This might be my last Christmas card for this year, and it's a pity this time is over so soon - the adorable winter release has been so fun to play with :)

Have a wonderful day and thanks for visiting!

Scenic Route Cards with Vanessa and Anja

Hello to you! Vanessa here today with a Christmas card using the Scenic Route Stamps. I love classic red for Christmas, here I combined it with orange and grey.

First, I stamped the houses and trees, colored the images with Copics and die-cut everything with the matching dies. Then I trimmed the borders and layered them from the bottom to the top of my card. 

After I had added glitter to the roofs and the trees, I trimmed two strips from red patterned paper from the Very Merry 6x6 Paper and adhered them. Finally, I stamped and heat-embossed the sentiment from Feeling Frosty onto a strip of black cardstock, trimmed it and adhered it.

These stamps are incredibly versatile, and such fun! Have a wonderful day everybody!

Hello everyone, Anja here today showcasing the Scenic Route Stamps. The row of houses is my favorite stamp in this set and I created a simple monochromatic card.

I stamped the image and the sentiment from the Foxy Christmas set in VersaMark Ink onto a 4 1/8" x 7" piece of aquamarine cardstock. I heat embossed both with white embossing powder.

For a change, I did some coloring with Prismacolor pencils. I added a tiny pink die-cut heart as a little pop of color.

Thank you so much for stopping by! Until next time!

Fluffy Clouds Cards with Lexa and Rachel

Hi everyone! Lexa here today with a scenic card using Fluffy Clouds Dies. I personally love these dies so much. It's so versatile that you can use it all year around with any theme especially outdoor scenes like I did with mine today. Let's get started!

The images are stamped with Versafine black ink and watercolored with Distress Markers. I used the pine trees from Seasonal Trees Stamps for the forest background. For my focal point image I used the cuddling little foxes from Foxy Christmas Stamps and I also added a tiny red bow on the smaller fox. Aren't they so adorable? After finished with the coloring I used the coordinating dies to cut out all the images. I make the foxes sit on a tree trunk.

As for the sky, I used the stitched cloud shapes several times on the top part of my card. I also cut some white fluffy clouds to add dimension. For my sky I blended Tumbled Glass and Peacock Feather Distress Inks and used Mowed Lawn Distress Ink for the grass. I then adhered the pine trees with glue in the background. I used the orange patterned paper from Amazing Argyle Paper Pad to match the orange foxes. My last step was to stamp the "hello" sentiment on a piece of fishtail banner.

That's all for today, I hope you enjoy today's post and have an amazing day!

Hello, crafty friends! It's Rachel here and I have a birthday card to share with you that features the new Fluffy Clouds Die Set. I love how you have the option to die cut a cloud from card stock or just add gorgeous cloud stitching as a subtle effect to your card.

I chose to do both today. As you can see in the photos, there are some stitched outlines of clouds that lightly cover the background. I also added a few puffy white clouds to pop out on the ink-blended sky.

I started by stamping my images from both the Love Monkey and A Bird's Life Stamp Sets with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink onto a sheet of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock. I then used some Copic Sketch Markers to color everything. I used the coordinating Love Monkey and A Bird's Life dies to cut them out.

For my background, I blended some Tumbled Glass, Shaded Lilac, and Spun Sugar Distress Oxide Inks onto some smooth white card stock. I then splattered this image with some water and blotted it dry with a clean paper towel after letting it sit for a minute. I also splattered this panel with some diluted Shaded Lilac Distress Oxide Ink and Opaque White Paint for some added interest.

Once this panel was dry, I then began to die cut my stitched-only clouds into the background. I added my white puffy clouds and die cut images to the front of my card with some 3D Foam Adhesive Squares to give them some dimension. Lastly, I heat embossed my sentiment with Fine Detail White Embossing Powder onto a strip of black card stock.

I hope you enjoyed my card today! Thanks so much for dropping by! Have a wonderful weekend!

Staggered Circle Dies Cards with Anja and Vanessa

Hi everyone, Anja here and today I'm showcasing the fabulous Staggered Circle Dies. I couldn't resist creating another card with the cute Love Monkey Stamps.

With this fun die you can create up to 5 circle windows across your card. I did some partial die cutting on a piece of grey cardstock to cut out 4 circles. My card is more narrow than an usual A2 card and measures 4 1/16 x 6 5/16 inch. I love that there is the stitching detail on both sides of the cut line. That's why I also die cut some circles from the new Spring Release paper packs and inlaid them into the window openings.

I scattered the sentiments from the Love Monkey Stamps set all over my card and white heat embossed them. Next, I stamped the monkeys, bananas and flowers in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored them with Copic markers. I used the coordinating dies to cut the images out and adhered them with foam tape. To finish off my card, I added Doodlebug Tiny Heart Sprinkles.

I think this die is a must-have! Thank you so much for stopping by!

Hi everyone! Vanessa here today with a Valentine's card using the Staggered Circle Dies. I love that you can use this dies in multiple ways! I die-cut the circles simply placing my die in various angles.

I first inked a white card base with light blue and green ink, then I adhered the panel I had die-cut the circles from.

Now I stamped all my images, using elements from Foxy Christmas, A Bird's Life, Chubby Bunny and Easter Wishes. I colored them all with Copics, die-cut them with the matching dies and adhered them to the card, raising some with foam tape.

Lastly, I stamped the sentiment from Love Monkey onto a strip of black cardstock with Versamark Ink, heat-embossed it using white embossing powder, trimmed it and adhered it to the card.

I love to mix and match the various stamp sets, they always work so well together, don't you agree? Have a great week, until next time :)
