Country Scenes Card with Tina H

Hello crafters, it’s Tina and did you know that I am a big fan of coloring, especially with my Copics! If you are like me than you will also love the Country Scenes stamp and die set! These stamps do all the work for you and create the most stunning landscapes. You get three completely different looks and today I am using the ‘orchard’ stamp for my design.

I also love that this set has matching dies to make multi-layer scene building even more easier. Since these scenes can cover an entire card front, I choose an oval design for my project.

To make it easy on myself, I first stamped the scene on a piece of white card stock and then placed one of the Stitched Oval dies on top to select the best placement for my die cutting. While I had the dies out, I cut a second slightly larger white oval as a border piece for my design. I love a nice edge to frame my panels, so I cut another oval this time using the largest of the Scalloped Oval Mat 1 dies and a green  polka dots paper (Polka-dot Parade). 

My card base is also on oval, I used a smaller die from the Stitched Oval set and added the green and white oval panels with liquid glue. Of course, I needed a cute critter to add to my scene. Foxy Friends is one of my favourite sets and I thought it would be fun to have a sweet fox pick some apples. I used a little cart from this set and took a crate and apples from the Truckloads Of Love stamp. Next, I enjoyed coloring the images and scene with my Copics.

I could have added some clouds but decided to keep that part of the design simple to make space for a my sentiment which was taken from the Punny Apple Greetings. I love how perfect this goes with this scene!

After gluing the scene oval to the layered card base with liquid glue, I used foam tape to adhere my images and sentiment strip. A few sparkly Champagne Clear Jewels were scattered around the sentiment strip.

I am so looking forward to see which sweet scenes you are creating with this amazing set! Thank you for joining me and happy crafting!

Feeling Froggy Card with Tina H

Hello crafters, Tina here and you know I absolutely love a cute critter! Today, I made a card with the adorable Feeling Froggy stamp and die set.

Of course this frog needed a beautiful pond to live in and browsing through my stash I found the perfect one in the Country Scenes bundle. I love that I can die cut this pond, it makes creating the whole landscape so much easier. 

The shape of the pond also made me decide to go for an oval focal point. I cut two ovals from white card stock with the largest of the Stitched Ovals. One was used to stamp the pond, which I then colored with my copics (plants) and a stencil with Distress Oxide Speckled Egg for the water. I used the matching die to cut out this border. My other white oval was turned into a pale sky, using a stencil and the same Distress Oxide ink.

I always like a nice scalloped frame so I glued both oval pieces to a white Scalloped Oval Mat 1 with liquid glue. The birthday boy today is the cute frog from Feeling Froggy, I also stamped and colored a dragonfly, a birthday hat (Foxy Friends) and a lily pad with lotus flower (Country Scenes). My white card base felt a bit plain so I added a striped pattern with a stencil and Distress Oxides Peeled Paint and Pine Needles.

I wanted a bold sentiment and went with the Happy Birthday one from Party Pets, which I stamped in a pink ink and die cut with the matching die. After adding all the elements to the scene, I simply sprinkled a few Iridescent Jewels. This frog is ready to party!

Thank you for joining me and happy crafting!

Sydney Alphabet Focused Card with Tina H

Hi there crafty friends, Tina here with a sweet baby card featuring the versatile Sydney Alphabet dies. I always love to create personal messages and these dies are perfect for that!

After creating a simple card base, I cut a white panel with the outer die of the Frilly Frames Stripes die which was then dry embossed with the Lots Of Dots embossing folder. I used liquid glue to adhere this piece to the card base.

My focal point consists of a large dark blue Oval (Scalloped Oval Mat 1). On top of this I am going to layer a white oval piece (Stitched Ovals) that will be turned into a sky scene with a blue ink and cloud stencil from my stash.

After mounting these two ovals to the embossed background, I selected a cutie from the Baby Elephant set. As always I used my Copics for some soft coloring, adding highlights with a white gel pen.

Then it was time to work on my combined sentiment. I spelled the word ‘baby’ with the Sydney Alphabet dies and glued them after the stamped ‘welcome’ word which was also taken from the Baby Elephant set. To complete the night sky, I added loads of dark blue stars, cut with several dies from the Comic Strip Speech Bubbles. I scattered them around the main image to complete the design.

I am looking forward to see all the beautiful cards you will create with this amazing die set! Thank you for joining me and happy crafting!

Guest Designer Spotlight: All Occasion Cards with Kavya

Hi folks, Kavya from Handmade By Kavya with some fun inspiration for the latest release! The new release is fueled with fun adorable cuties perfect for any occasion. Since it's valentine's day, I am going to show you how to make three cards that could be perfect for any occasion including today. How perfect is that? I think every card stash needs cards that are versatile! 

For my first card, we will be highlighting the typewriter from Vintage Valentines stamp set. I started off by stamping images from Vintage Valentines and Garden Fairy. For the background, I started off by die cutting Frilly Frames Quatrefoil using navy blue cardstock.

For the background, I took a lighter blue cardstock and ink blended the top using navy blue dye ink. For the table, I used pattern paper from All is Bright paper pack. Adhere all the images as shown in the picture below. Add a few details using white gel pen and you are done! 

For my next card, I am making a cute snail mail themed card! I started off by stamping and coloring a bunch of images from Vintage Valentines, Garden Critters and Snail Mail. Then, I created my oval base using Stitched Oval and Scalloped Oval Mat 3 dies. 

I then ink bended the top of the stitched oval die using pale pink dye ink. For the background, I used pattern paper from Critter Country paper pack. Adhere all the images, add a few details using a white gel pen and you are done! 

My final card is super simple to make but I think it's absolutely stunning! I started off by preparing my base using white cardstock and Dots & Stripes Jewel Tones paper pack. 

Then, I die cut a bunch of speech bubbles using Speech Bubbles Extras dies. Then, I added a 'hi' using Loopy Letters dies. Added a few details like hearts using white gel pen and I was done! 

I hope you liked all all of these cards :) Happy Crafting!
