Brilliant Banner 3 Die Focused Card with Tina

Hi crafty friends, Tina here and today I am featuring the versatile Brilliant Banner 3 die, combined with one of my favorite sets Holiday Hugs. The matching die makes it easy for the cute bear to hold all kinds of stuff like this sweet mug!

I love the start with a simple white card base and add a colorful layer on top. This time, I selected a red gingham paper from Joyful Holiday and cut it with the outer die of the Frilly Frames Stripes.

Each time I use a layered stamp set, I make sure to create a few more pieces. In this case I had some pink-red flowers in my stash from the Pretty Poinsettia set. They are the perfect backdrop for my cute bear together with some teal branches from Autumn Garland.

To make these elements stand out more, I added an extra white layer to the red gingham panel by cutting the largest of the Limitless Labels 1, and dry embossing it with the Woodgrain embossing folder. Then it was time to stamp and cut the sweet bear with his mug from Holiday Hugs. All the coloring was done with Copic markers in red, pink, and teal tones. Of course, I added some white snowflakes with a gel pen.

Next, I cut the Brilliant Banner 3 die from white card stock and stamped the combined sentiment (Holiday Express) in a red ink from my stash. After placing the poinsettias and leaves, I mounted the bear and banner with foam tape. A few Crystal Clear Jewels were scattered across the design as a finishing touch.

Thank you for visiting the blog and happy crafting!

Designer's Choice: Summer Greenery Card with Tina

Hi crafty friends, it’s Tina and today we are using a custom-made frame as the base for our fun design.

As in most of my cards, I made a white card base and then worked on my background panel. This time, I used the outer die from Frilly Frames Eyelet Lace which has a lovely delicate scalloped edge. To give more interest to this piece, I used a striped stencil from my stash and Distress Oxide Speckled Egg. I love this nice, muted color! Next, I glued this striped panel to the card base.

I used the same Oxide shade for my tropical leaves (Summer Greenery) as well as Twisted Citron and Peacock Feathers. These three colors work very well together in creating a tropical vibe!

My focal frame was cut from white card stock using the two largest dies from Limitless Labels 1.  I mounted this frame with narrow foam tape to the striped panel. It helps to remove the backing from the foam first so you can bend it easily to follow the curved shape. I selected two cuties from the Tropical Birds set and colored them with my Copics in vibrant  colors that would contrast with my background elements.

My sentiment was selected from the Big Bold Greetings set and stamped in a pink ink from my stash. Then, I could start building the scene, starting with the tropical leaves in different shades of blue and green. I layered them in opposite corners on the label frame. Next, I put the sweet birds in place and ended with adhering the large sentiment. It filled up the remaining space in the frame nicely! To match the pink birds, I added a few pink Pastel Jewels to the leaves.

I had a lot of fun creating this sweet card and I hope to see your creations soon! Thank you for joining me and happy crafting!

Limitless Labels Die Focused Cards with Marine

Hello crafty friends, Marine here, I'm thrilled to be back on the blog with this duo of super cute and extra colorful rainbow summer cards featuring cocktails and sunglasses, which is the perfect combo for a fun summer vacation!

I started off by stamping cocktails, flowers and sunglasses from Big Panda, as well as a bunch of hearts from Special Day on 80lb Neenah solar white cardstock using an alcohol marker friendly black ink. I cut them all using the matching dies, and colored everything using my Spectrum Noir Illustrator markers, my Graph'it brush markers, and my Ohuhu markers.

Next I cut two 5,5 x 4,25 inches Surprise Party panels, and attached each of them to a white card base. I cut sixteen small panels using the second smallest Limitless Labels 1 die: six out of Polka Dot Parade pattern papers, and six more out of Classic Sunburst pattern papers. I attached the first six on the rainbow sprinkles background using 1mm foam squares, and attached the six remaining ones on the rainbow dot background using 1mm foam squares again.

I attached my images on each panel using 1mm and 2mm foam squares, making sure to coordinate everything, and then created two sentiments. I started off by white heat embossing two "Summer" words from Beach Bus on black cardstock, I cut them using the matching die, and attached each word in the middle on each panel using 2mm foam squares. I white heat embossed "Happy" and "Hello" from Beach Bus again on colored cardstock, and trimmed them into small banners that I stuck on my panels using foam squares again.

To finish both cards, I added highlights and details to the images using a white gel pen, and applied white blizzard nuvo drops to the hearts to make them super shiny. And that's it! 

How fun it was to make these cards! I love how they turned out, and I hope that you like them. Thanks so much for stopping by, and see you next time!

Limitless Labels Die Focused Card with Tina

Hello crafters, it’s Tina and today I have a fun shaker card for you made with one of the nesting Limitless Labels dies combined with some yummy treats from the Candy Shoppe set.

My background panel was made from a sheet of beautiful grey paper (Subtle Grey Tones) since I knew I’d be selecting bright colors for the sweets.

To create the shaker I used the outside die from the Frilly Frames Eyelet Lace dies and one of the Limitless Labels dies. Next, I adhered some clear acetate to the back of this panel using strong double-sided tape. Then, I build my shaker wall with foam tape and filled up the shaker with clear and pink sequins from my stash. To close this shaker, I cut a pink piece of the Striped Silly papers.

After stamping the gumball machine, gummi bears and other sweets I started coloring with my trusted Copic markers. I went with fun and happy colors! I stamped the sentiment from Heartfelt Wishes in pink ink on a white banner and adhered it to the bottom of my shaker card.

Next, I mounted the gumball machine and arranged the other sweets left and right. I love finishing a card with some embellishments and today I chose for the Crystal Clear Jewels since my project was so colorful.

This card was fun to make, and I hope it inspired you to create a shaker card as well! Happy crafting!

Fresh Lemon Card with Tina

Hello crafters, Tina here with a summer card combining the fun Fresh Lemon Dies with the yummy Perfect Popsicles.

After creating a white card base, I die cut a panel with the outer die of the Frilly Frames Stripes Die and a green sheet from Flirty Flowers. For my next layer, I dry embossed a piece of white card stock with the Lots Of Dots embossing folder and used one of the Limitless labels. Next, I just adhered these layers together with liquid glue.

This summer card needed lots of vibrant colors, so I used bright pink, yellow and green inks from my stash for the popsicles and lemons. As always with layering stamps, I used the plastic sheet with the images printed on to help me position all the stamps. I added some white highlights with a gel pen. I used the same pink ink for the sentiment from Perfect Popsicles.

Then I played around with the layout of the popsicles and lemons and assembled the card with liquid glue and foam tape where needed. A few Iridescent Clear Jewels were the perfect sparkle to finish this project.

I really love how well these sets work together and I hope you got inspired to create some fun summer cards too! Thank you for spending time with me and happy crafting!
