Wild Cherry Die Focused Card with Leanne

Hi there! Leanne here sharing a cherryful card today. I simply could not resist adding the fun play on words to my card featuring how I've used the Wild Cherry dies. 

This A2 card design is very easy to make. I started by creating a soft minty background with scalloped edge detail. To get this detail, I used the Frilly Frame Hexagon die to create a mask that covers the edges of the card front and then I applied the ink in the negative space. The minty aqua color is Catherine Pooler Hot Tub. 

I die cut 7 cherries, stems, and leaves from white card stock. I used small blending brushes and the following Catherine Pooler inks to color: Peppermint Scrub for the cherries, Matcha + Spruce for the leaves, Over Coffee for the stems. 

I arranged the cherries along the bottom half of the card front so I'd have room above them to add a custom greeting. The stamped part of the sentiment are words included in the Punny Fruit Greetings stamp set. I used the Hayley Lower Case Alphabet dies to cut out letters that spell "cherryful". I cut the letters from white card stock and colored with a combo of Peppermint Scrub and Merlot CP inks. To finish this design I added a few green sequins scattered around the greeting area.

Juicy Watermelon Card with Cathy

Hey friends! Cathy here today sharing a clean and simple friendship card today featuring the Juicy Watermelon Dies.

This was so fun to make and works up quickly. I started by cutting a piece of white cardstock 5” x 6” and lightly inked across the center of the cardstock with Spun Sugar Distress ink. I cut a strip of Gingham Pastels Paper 1 1/4" x 6” and adhered it to the bottom of the cardstock. I then die-cut the cardstock using the frame portion of the Frilly Frames Quatrefoil Dies and adhered it to an A2 card front.

Next, I die-cut 5 watermelon slices using the Juicy Watermelon Dies and 2 leaves/small flowers using the Strawberry Patch Dies from white cardstock. I colored the watermelon slices and flowers with Copics and inked the leaves with Mowed Lawn/Rustic Wilderness Distress inks. For extra cuteness, I die-cut my center slice with the smiley face die from the Fresh Lemon Dies and added a stamped/Copic colored pair of shades using a stamp from the Beach Buddies Stamps. I just love how they fit the smiley face perfectly! I adhered the die-cuts across the card and then decided to die-cut 2 larger flowers using the “free with purchase” mini die currently available. I also colored these flowers with Copics.

To finish, I heat embossed a sentiment from the Punny Fruit Greetings Stamps with white embossing powder on a strip of black cardstock and die-cut the “melon” sentiment from black cardstock using the Hayley Lowercase Alphabet Dies.

Big Bunny Card with Cathy

Hey friends! Cathy here today with a fun birthday card featuring the Big Bunny Stamps. I just love how this adorable bunny can be used for so many occasions!

This is an A2 card and I started with a festive multi-colored background. I cut a piece of white cardstock 4" x 5 1/2" and inked it with Tumbled Glass, Spun Sugar, Twisted Citron and Squeezed Lemonade Distress inks. For stitched detailing, I die-cut the 5 1/2" edges of the panel using a Ribbon & Lace Borders Die.

Next, I die-cut balloons and streamers from white cardstock using the Bright Balloons Dies and Crepe Paper Streamers Dies. I inked them with the same Distress inks as the panel. I adhered the streamers first and trimmed the excess from the edges. For the balloon strings, I tied gray embroidery floss to each and then adhered the balloons.

I stamped the bunny and bow from the Big Bunny Stamps and the cupcake from the Holiday Hugs Stamps on Neenah Classic Crest 80lb solar white cardstock, colored them with Copics and die-cut them using the coordinating dies. I adhered the bunny to the bottom of the panel and added a strip of Spring Fever Paper along the bottom that I die-cut using a Ribbon & Lace Borders Die and cut to 4" long.

I cut 2 strips of black cardstock 5 1/2" long and adhered one under each side of the background panel so just a sliver of black is visible. I then adhered the panel to a white card front.

To finish, I die-cut a punny sentiment from gray and black cardstock using the Hayley Lowercase Alphabet Dies and an exclamation point from the Hayley Uppercase Alphabet Dies. I slightly overlapped the colors to make the gray stand out a bit more. I stamped the "IT'S YOUR BIRTHDAY!" sentiment from the Puddle Jumpers Stamps on a strip of gray cardstock.

Treat Bag Topper Die Treat Bags with Leanne

Hello friends, Leanne here! If you are looking for a fun way to give someone a little treat, I have just the thing... a cocoa bomb treat bag with coordinating topper.  The new Treat Bag Topper die makes it so easy to kick your treat bags up a notch. I found some 4"x6" clear food safe party bags at my local craft store that are the perfect size to hold a cocoa bomb and attach the bag topper to.  

I started by die cutting the bag topper from 110lb white card stock.  To decorate the topper, I added die cut hearts and a little mug of cocoa.  The heart dies are found in two different die sets - Stitched Heart 2 and Gift Card Envelope.  The little mug dies come from Warm & Cozy.  

To finish the bag topper, I added a fun sentiment. I stamped "you're the" which comes from the Passionate Penguins set. With the Hayley Uppercase Alphabet dies I was able to spell out the word "bomb".  

I added some mini marshmallows, tiny heart sprinkles, a small stirring spoon, and one cocoa bomb into each bag. I then used some strong adhesive tape to attach the decorated topper to the bags.  These will be perfect Valentine gifts to give to friends and family.

Scrumptious Cupcakes Cards with Cathy

Hey friends! Cathy here today and I've got a deliciously sweet CAS card for you featuring the Scrumptious Cupcakes Stamps!

This is an A2 card and I started by die-cutting a piece of white cardstock using the Frilly Frames Retro Petals Die. I cut a piece of aqua cardstock 3 1/2" x 5" and adhered the white frame over it on the card front.

Next, I die-cut a piece of white cardstock using the second largest Stitched Semi-Circle Die and adhered it to the center of the card front using foam dimensional tape. I stamped the cupcakes from the Scrumptious Cupcakes Stamps and die-cut them using the coordinating dies. I added Pure White Jewels to the frosting as little candy pieces.

To finish, I die-cut 2 pieces of kraft cardstock using a die from the Notebook Photo Corners Dies. I heat embossed the "hope your day is" sentiment with white embossing powder using stamps from the Savanna Safari Stamps and cut along one edge of each piece close to the sentiment. I die-cut the "Sweet" sentiment from dark brown cardstock using the Hayley Uppercase and Hayley Lowercase Dies.

For my second A2 card and I adhered all the elements directly to the card front. First, I added 3 papers to the bottom. I die-cut 6" long strips of the brown and green papers from the Dots & Stripes Jewel Tones Paper using the ribbon die from the Ribbon & Lace Border Dies. I overlapped and adhered the green strip on the brown and adhered them 1 1/4" from the bottom edge. I trimmed them on the left and right edges of the card. I then cut a piece of red paper from the Joyful Holiday Paper 1" x 6", die-cut one edge using a die from the Ribbon & Lace Border Dies and adhered it even with the bottom edge of the card. I trimmed the excess from the left and right edges.

Next, I die-cut a piece of white cardstock using the Sweet Word Die and inked it with Spun Sugar and Kitsch Flamingo Distress inks. I adhered it above the brown paper and slightly off center. I die-cut the "friend" sentiment from white cardstock using the Loopy Letters Dies, inked the letters with Ground Espresso Distress ink and adhered them along the top of the red paper as shown. I heat embossed the "HELLO" sentiment from the Radiant Plumeria Stamps with white embossing powder on brown cardstock, fussy cut around it and adhered it above and to the left of the sweet sentiment.

To finish, I stamped the cupcakes and cherries from the Scrumptious Cupcakes Stamps and die-cut them using the coordinating dies. I just love the detail in these sweet stamps!

Berry Bliss Card with Marine

Hello crafty friends! Marine here with you today, so happy to be back on the blog with this infinity shaker card showcasing some delicious strawberries from Berry Bliss. 

Speaking of which, I first started with the strawberries, and I used premium dye inks by Lawn Fawn to stamp them. I stamped the first layer using Ballet Slippers ink, the second one using Peachy Keen ink, and the third one using Guava ink. Next I added greenery on top of each strawberry and stamped some extra leaves using Crisp Autumn. I used Celery Stick ink to stamp the first layer, and Freshly Cut Grass ink to stamp the second one, and for the leaves I used Jalapeno ink to stamp the third layer. I cut all the images using the coordinating dies, and then moved on to the shaker panel that I created using the same process as my Autumn Tree card.

I first cut a 5,5 x 4,25 inches Spring Sunburst panel, and also cut a plastic storage sleeve to get one single sheet of plastic. Added thin double sided tape all along the four edges of my plastic sheet, placed my panel in the middle and cut the four corners off the plastic sheet, creating tabs on each side of my panel. I folded and attached three of those four tabs, added a mix of polymer clay confetti and iridescent confetti inside the plastic pocket, and then folded and attached the remaining tab to close my infinity shaker panel.

I attached the strawberries at the bottom of the shaker panel using 1mm foam squares, and next I created my "Hi sweetie" greeting using the Hayley Lowercase Alphabet. I cut each letter twice: out of gold glitter cardstock and out white cardstock. I glued the gold glitter letters on top of the white ones, and finally I stuck everything on my panel right above the strawberries.

And that's it! I hope you like this super cute and fun shaker card! Thanks so much for stopping by, and see you next time!
