Woolen Mitten Die Focused Card with Tina

Hello crafty friends, Tina here featuring the gorgeous Woolen Mitten Die set! I am a huge fan of shaped cards and I love that this mitten is big enough to add lots of details to it. Such as the festive wreath I am creating today.

I am kicking off this project by creating a white mitten card base by folding a sheet of white card stock in two and using the mitten die, making sure the top part stayed intact. Next, I cut another mitten from a beautiful snowflake paper (Joyful Holiday) and added some dimension by inking the edges with a blending brush and Distress Oxide Uncharted Mariner.

I did the same for the cuff of the mitten which I created with a polka dot paper (Joyful Holiday). A small white border (Ribbon & Lace Border dies) was added as extra embellishment. After gluing all the elements of the mitten to my shaped card base, I was ready to work on my wreath.

The smallest wreath die from Winter Wreaths was the perfect size for my base. This immediately gives you the perfect circle shape to add the branches from Winter Greenery Dies. I stacked two layers of branches in the same teal blue color as my base. I also cut three extra branches from a shiny white card stock to give some contrast with the blue mitten.

I used the smallest Poinsettia leaf die from the Woolen Mitten set and cut it from red, pink and white card stock. This creates the most adorable little flowers with a small white gem from the Pure White Jewels as a center. I added the flowers to the wreath with some foam tape and glued the whole piece onto the mitten shape. Finally, I stamped a sentiment from Feeling Frosty to a small white strip using Versafine Onyx black ink and added it to the cuff of the mitten.

I am sure you will love this beautiful mitten die as much as I do!

Winter Wreaths Card with Gladys

Hi crafty friends, Gladys here! I'm excited to be back on the blog today to share another holiday card featuring the beautiful Winter Wreaths stamp set. It's the busiest time of the year again and if you haven't started your holiday card making yet I hope this card will help inspire you!  

To start, I stamped the wreath using Simon Says Stamps pawsitively saturated inks, but you can use any inks you prefer. I used a light color first then stamped it a second time using a darker color only on the outer and inner edge of the wreath to add contrast. If you don't want harsh lines, use a mini sponge dauber to smooth the ink before stamping it so that it has an even application. The bow and mini poinsettias are layering stamps which I love because it's very dimensional. I recommend using a stamping tool with layering stamps because it makes it so much easier to line things up. Once all my stamping was complete, I used the coordinating dies to cut them all out.

Next, I used an A2 rectangle die to cut the red pattern paper from All Is Bright paper pack. I inked the edges with aged mahogony distress ink to add depth. To add more interest, I splattered white paint all over the panel and wreath. For the sentiment I used the Season's Greetings stamp set. I heat embossed it with gold embossing powder then used the coordinating die to cut the word Greetings. The word season's is heat embossed on vellum. 

To assemble the card, I centered the wreath on the top of the panel. I backed the poinsettia's and bow with double sided foam tape for dimension. Then adhered the Greetings sentiment on the bottom of the panel and the vellum centered in the opening of the wreath. For finishing touches I added red jewels on the center of the poinsettia's and a scatter of gold jewels all over the wreath. 

Thanks so much for joining me today, I'll be back for more inspiration. Have a wonderful day!

Hayley Alphabet Die Focused Cards with Tina and Vanessa

Hello crafty friends, Tina here with a card featuring a custom sentiment made with the versatile Hayley Alphabet Uppercase and Hayley Alphabet Lowercase dies. I love the scripty font of these dies and how easy they are to connect in creating words. The possibilities are endless with these amazing products.

As I have mentioned before here on the blog, I am always in need of fun birthday cards! So, what better word to spell than ‘Congrats’. I die cut all the letters from pink card stock and adhered them together with some drops of liquid glue. The letters all overlap to create that fluid scripty font, having the word already created will give me the opportunity to play around with the correct placement in a later phase.

The Cherry Blossoms stamps were the perfect match for the cute bear from Panda Party. First, I stamped the layering flowers in three shades of pink inks from my stash. For the leaves, I kept with the cool tones and went with a vibrant blue color. I used the same color for the Winter Wreath. The panda was stamped, die cut and colored with Copic markers. Of course, he needed a party hat too!

With so much going on in this design, I created a simple striped background panel with a stencil from my stash. I placed all my components on the background and decided I needed another small sentiment (‘It’s your birthday’ from Little Birdie). I didn’t have a card base in the same blue color as my leaves and wreath, so I just inked up the sides of a white one for a perfect match.

Next, I glued the background panel to that base and popped up the wreath, flowers, leaves and bear with foam tape. Lastly, I added the ‘Congrats’ word and sentiment banner. A few blue jewels from the Bright mix were scattered around the wreath.

I am sure you will love these amazing alphabet dies as much as I do! Can’t wait to see all your creations! Thank you for visiting the blog and happy crafting!

Hello to you! Vanessa here with a colorful birthday card featuring the Hayley Alphabet Dies.

I was inspired by my former team mate Kavya and her colorful creations! First, I trimmed a panel of white cardstock slightly smaller than my slimline card base and inked the background with Broken Glass and Rusty Hinge Distress Oxide Inks. 

Now I stamped all my images from Panda Party, Fast Food Fun, Looking Sharp and Lovable Llama. I colored the pieces with Copics, die-cut them with the matching dies and adhered the elements to the card.

Then I die-cut the letters, spelled "Spec-taco-lar" and adhered them. Finally, I stamped and heat-embossed the rest of the sentiment onto a strip of black cardstock and adhered it before adding highlights with a white gel pen.

I hope this happy card will brighten someone's day! Enjoy your weekend and thanks for visiting!
