Radiating Circles Die Focused Card with Tina H

Hi there crafty friends, Tina here and today we are creating a fun Easter card! The design is based upon one of the beautiful Radiating Circles which I turned into a frame by using a smaller Stiched Circle Small die.

I went with a square card base, which was covered with a soft yellow background paper from my stash and cut with the largest of the Scalloped Square 1 Small dies. After glueing both parts together with liquid glue, I started working on my scene. The inside piece which was left from creating my circle frame was turned into a soft yellow sky with an ink and stencil from my stash. 

Next, I selected all my images, three adorable bunnies and egg from Bunnyville, the fence from Woolly Friends and two more eggs from Chubby Bunny. I used bright Spring tones for my Copic coloring.

I wanted to do something special for the sentiment and decided it would be fun to have a tag with the ‘Happy Easter’ message (Woolly Friends) tied to the frame with a yellow string. After stamping the words to the tag (Window Quad Square) with Versafine Onyx Black ink, I added this piece to the circle.

Next, I adhered a white grassy border and the blue fence to the back of the frame. I glued the sky circle to the card base before mounting the frame with foam strips. Then I placed the sweet bunnies and Easter eggs to complete the scene. A few Champagne Clear Jewels were the perfect bling for this card.

And that finishes my project, thank you for joining me and happy crafting!

Inside Greetings Friends Cards with Janneke

Hello crafty friends, Janneke here and today I am excited to share these adorable friendship cards featuring the Inside Greetings Friends stamp set.

For this card project, I started by die-cutting 6x the Scalloped Square 1 Small from white cardstock, three of which I turned into grassy borders using our Slimline Nature Border dies. I decided to make three different colored cards, blending the insides of the scalloped squares with pastel blue, pink, and green Distress Oxide inks. For the grass borders, I also blended only the inside with green ink. I masked off the edges to achieve this, but honestly, it would be even easier to use Stitched Square Dies and stick them on top (I’ve already added them to my Wishlist!).

Next, I stamped the Inside Greetings Friends sentiment in a shade slightly darker than the background color, then stamped it again 1mm below in black ink to create a little depth.

I layered the grass borders onto the blended scalloped squares, tucking in some flowers from the Bunnyville stamp set behind the grass. From the Gingham Pastels paper, I cut squares slightly larger than the scalloped ones and rounded the corners with a punch before adhering the scalloped squares on top.

For each card, I chose a different cute critter:

On the blue card, the bunnies from Bunnyville stamp set and the Balloon Numbers stamp set, on the pink card, the sweet penguins from the Passionate Penguins stamp set and  on the green card, the adorable foxes from the Foxy Friends stamp set.

Lastly I added the butterflies also from the Bunnyville stamp set and the heart lollipop from the Bighearted Bears stamp set to each card. After coloring all the stamps with Ohuhu markers and adding highlights with a white gel pen, I adhered them onto the card bases and I mounted everything onto white cardstock bases, rounding the corners to match.

Cards done, ready to send joy! Thanks for joining me, and see you next week.

Zig Zag Circles Die Focused Card with Tina H

Hello crafters, it’s Tina with another sweet Spring card. This design is framed by one of the fun Zig Zag Circle dies. 

I started this project with a square card base. Next, I cut a white panel with the largest of the Scalloped Square 1 Small dies. I dry embossed this piece with the Woodgrain folder. I love how this texture matches the nature vibe of this card! Next, I glued this panel to the card base.

For my focal point I cut a large white circle (Zig Zag Circle dies) and turned it into a frame by using one of the Stitched Circles Small dies. Both pieces will fit together like a puzzle during the build-up of the design. I cut another piece (teal paper Flirty Flowers) with the stitched circle die to create a grassy border (die from my stash). The top part of the white circle was turned into a sky (cloud stencil from my stash and Salvaged Patina Distress Oxide). I glued the grass piece to the circle with liquid glue.

To complete the scene I stamped a tree branch, a little birdie (A Bird’s Life), some Easter eggs, a basket and a cute chick (Chickie Baby). All the coloring was done with my Copic markers and I added white highlights with a gel pen.

My sentiment comes from the Chubby Bunny set and was stamped on a white strip with Versafine Onyx Black ink. Before building the card, I took the white circle frame and the inner landscape part and flipped them both backwards. Then, I used some tape to hold them together. This extra step made it a lot easier for me to add foam tape and mount both parts to the embossed square panel.  I put all the images in place using tape where needed for that extra dimension. Lastly, I added the sentiment strip and some Aquamarine Jewels for that soft touch of bling!

I love how the Zig Zag Circle frames this sweet scene. But this set can be used for so many other designs! Thank you for joining me and happy crafting!

Penguin Pair Card with Tina H

Hello crafters, it’s Tina and today I have a sweet Valentine’s card for you! Stars of the show are the cuties from the Penguin Pair stamp and die set! Not only are they super adorable, they bring their own little sweaters and accessories. I love when sets give you these extra options for so many different looks.

I started with a white square card base and added a textured layer created with one of the Scalloped Square 1 Large dies and the Dapper Diamonds embossing folder. A quick and easy way to elevate any panel. 

Since this card is love themed, it also needed a heart shape (Scalloped Heart dies). I just cut  the largest die but then decided that it would be fun to add extra dimension with the smaller heart from that set. For these pieces I selected pale blue heart and flower papers from the Flirty Flowers pad. 

Now it was time to stamp and colour the cute penguins (Penguin Pair stamp) with my Copic markers in blue, pink and yellow tones. As always I added some white highlights. I gave the girl a headband and an adorable sweater for the boy. 

After browsing through my stash I found the perfect sentiment (Foxy Friends) and stamped it with Versafine Onyx Black ink on a small white banner. I mounted the hearts, penguins and banner with some thin foam tape. For that extra bling, I sprinkled a few Pink Spinel Jewels.

I hope this card inspires you to create some sweet love cards with this cute penguin couple! Thank you for joining me and happy crafting!
