Brilliant Banner 4 Die Focused Card with Tina

Hello crafters, I am Tina and today we are making a fun holiday card using the Brilliant Banner 4 die and a happy bunch of Roly Poly Penguins! These guys are the best, I love their sweet little outfits and personalities!

My background consist of a white panel cut with the outer die of the Frilly Frames Chevron set and embossed by using the Lots of Dots embossing folder. This piece was glued to a white card base.

For the focal point I created a Stitched Semi Circle and inked this shape with Distress Oxide Picked Raspberry and a cloud stencil from my stash. The same semi-circle was made from glitter card stock, so I could add a snowbank for my penguins. I mounted this layer to the dotted background with foam tape.

After selecting three adorable cuties (Roly Poly Penguins) and some gifts, letters ,candy canes and coffee mugs, I colored all the stamped images with Copic markers in pink, gray and green shades.

Next, I cut the Brilliant Banner 4 from white card stock, and stamped a combined sentiment (Santa Claus Lane) in a green ink from my stash. I love how well this banner works with the shape of the semi-circle die!

After playing around with the placement for the penguins and their accessories, I adhered all the elements in place with glue or foam tape. Of course, I added snow with a white gel pen! And to create an even more wintery look, I sprinkled a bunch of Pure White Jewels between the pink clouds.

I had a lot of fun creating this holiday card and I hope to see your creations soon! Thank you for visiting the blog and happy crafting!

Distinctive Door Holiday Add-on Die Focused Card with Tina

Hello crafters, it’s Tina with an elegant Christmas card featuring the beautiful Distinctive Door Holiday Add-ons combined with the Distinctive Door dies! Together they create the most festive scenes!

To a white card base, I added an additional white panel embossed using the Buffalo Plaid Straight die and cut with the outer die from the Frilly Frames Stripes set.

Next, I started to cut all the elements I needed for my scene (Distinctive Door Holiday Add-ons, Distinctive Door dies). This time I opted for Copic markers to color these pieces. I love how the shades of ‘white’ create an elegant look, with the door and greenery as pops of color. For the snow, bow, lanterns, and sentiment base I used a glitter paper which gives instant holiday vibes. 

The sentiment comes from the Victorian Christmas set, and I stamped it in a matching pink ink from my stash.

Then it was time to assemble the card, I found it easiest to work from the bottom to the top, starting by gluing the stairs in place and building the door scene from there. I love how the sentiment fits perfectly between the two pillars.

There are many great colors in the Pastel Jewels pack, they were perfect to decorate the garland and Christmas trees. As always on my holiday cards, I used a white gel pen to add a ton of snow to the die cuts.

Thank you for being here and I hope you got inspired by the combination of these two fun die sets! Happy crafting!

Roly Poly Penguins Card with Alma

Hello everyone, Alma here today. I'd like to show you a card featuring the Roly Poly Penguins Stamps.

I chose my favorite penguin from the set, the one with the adorable earmuffs and cozy scarf. I colored the image with Copics and cut it out using the Roly Poly Penguins Dies. 

Then, I colored and cut out the trees from the Seasonal Trees Stamps Set. Since I love romantic winter scenes, I really wanted to use the mirror stamping technique, which is super easy with a stamping tool!

I colored the mirrored image and layered it with a piece of glossy vellum to give it a frosty look. Next, I used the Slimline Nature Border Dies and the Stitched Oval Dies to create a pond and assembled everything. I added white highlights with a gel pen. I stamped the sentiment "winter" from the Cozy Christmas Stamps and the "spirits" from the Baking Spirits Bright Stamps.

Finally, I used the Frilly Frames Eyelet Lace dies to create a frame and cut out a rectangle. The white frame, along with the pink and blue cardstock, completed the card!

Toasty Hugs Card with Tina

Hello crafters, Tina here and today I made a fun Christmas card with lots of layers featuring the adorable cuties from the Toasty Hugs stamp and die set.

Opting for a vertical design this project starts with a white card base, next I cut a blue panel from a snowflake paper (Frilly Frames Stripes Die, Holiday Cheer papers). I added more subtle interest to this piece by running it through the machine with the Dotted Diamond Portrait die.

The following layer is made from white card stock using the Window Trio Square dies. I cut this window from a large piece of paper and used my trimmer to cut a small border around it so I could add thin foam strips to attach it to the blue panel.

I kept the square white pieces from the die cut and used them to create little snowbanks for my mini scenes and sentiment. The ‘Christmas’ word (Reindeer Games) was stamped with Versafine Onyx Black ink. After cutting the large Merry Word 3 times from a red paper in my stash I glued them all together giving the die cut stability and dimension. I used tiny slivers of foam tape to adhere the word to the windows shape.

For the mini scenes I used the two cuties from the Toasty Hugs stamp, strings of twinkly lights and packages (Holiday Express) and lastly the igloo from Winter Scenes. I selected pink, red and vibrant blue Copic markers for my coloring, adding snowflakes with a white gel pen.

After putting the little snowbanks in place, I added all the other elements for the scenes with foam tape. For extra interest I mounted even more snowflakes to the background by using one of my favorite dies (Snowflake Circle Frame). This die is a must have for all your winter and holiday cards, as it cuts a bunch of snowflakes in one pass. Love that! I then glued some Red Zircon Jewels to the centers of the snowflakes. 

I had a great time creating this adorable card and I hope you got inspired by the design! Thank you for visiting the blog and happy crafting!

Buffalo Plaid Die Focused Card with Tina

Hello crafters, it’s Tina and today I am making a Christmas card with a special background featuring the Buffalo Plaid Diagonal Die. This die makes it very easy to create that extra interest on your cards. And I love that you have options, you can create an embossed look or step it up a notch by using the matching Diagonal and Straight Stripes stencils to add color as I did today. Either way, you will get an awesome result!

Since I am so ready for the holiday season, I browsed though my stash and found one of my all time favorite stamp sets Reindeer Games. Just looking at that cute Santa with his fluffy friends makes me happy! It was the perfect match for my plaid background.

Starting off with a white card base, I glued on a slightly smaller mat of teal card stock for some contrast. Next, I die cut two panels from white paper with the outer die from the Frilly Frames Chevron set. One panel was used to create a snowbank while I embossed the other one with the Buffalo Plaid Diagonal Die. The result is beautiful as is, but I decided to go for a bit more contrast and added a teal ink by using the matching stencil (Diagonal and Straight Stripes stencils). After adding this piece to my card base, I mounted the snowbank with foam tape.

For my scene, I selected the Santa and two of his adorable reindeer (Reindeer Games), a few Christmas trees (Seasonal Trees) and some presents (Holiday Express). I used my Copic Markers for all the coloring, and I added some snowy details with a white gel pen.

The sentiment was selected from the fun Deck The Halls set and stamped directly onto the plaid panel with a red ink from my stash. Then it was time to build the scene, starting with the trees in the background, and mounting the other images with foam tape. I used a grey Copic marker to add some shadows in the snow. Three white snowflake die cuts were placed around the sentiment and I embellished them all with a few Pure White Jewels.

Thank you for joining me and I am looking forward to seeing your creations with these fun dies! Happy crafting!
