Designer's Choice Cards with Vanessa and Audrey

Hello to you! Vanessa here with a fun baby explosion box mini album using the Baby Elephants set.

This box was created with an explosion box board. I created the bases from white and purple cardstock and added various pieces of patterned paper. With an envelope punch board I created matching envelopes, with the Gift Card Pocket Die little pockets for the tags. The lid is a shaker window filled with sequins and clay elements. 

These are the supplies I used for the project:
Baby Elephants stamps + dies
Candy Shoppe stamps + dies
Gift Card Pocket Die
Fluffy Clouds Border Dies
Build-A-Tag #1 Dies
Scalloped Tag Circle Dies
Window Trio Circle Dies
Gingham Pastels Paper
Dots & Stripes Pastels Paper
Flirty Flowers Paper
Sleek Stripes Paper 
Polka Dot Parade Paper
Striped Silly Paper
Rainbow Dot Confetti
Pink & Purple Heart Confetti

To provide space for text and more photos, I added many tags and pockets. The images were colored with Copic markers and die-cut with the matching dies. Can't wait to see it filled with photos of a sweet baby girl! I hope you like it :)

Happy weekend and thanks for stopping by today!

Hello friends! Audrey here with a fun gnome themed card to share with you! If you have fallen in love with this adorable stamp set and want to add it to your collection, don't delay! This set is retiring, but still in stock, and as soon as it's sold out, it's gone for good. Get yours while you can! :)

To create my card, I started off with a piece of white cardstock cut to 4" x5.25". I cut a piece of computer paper the same size, and die cut a rectangle from the center, creating a stencil or mask of sorts. I taped them together and used Distress ink in Blueprint Sketch (very lightly) and Rustic Wilderness to ink blend a background for the scene. 

Then, I stamped and colored the mushroom trio, two polka dot mushrooms, and the super cute sitting gnome from Home Sweet Gnome, all of which I cut out with the coordinating Home Sweet Gnome dies. I arranged them on the ink blended rectangle, gluing some down with liquid and popping others up with foam tape. I added a trio of tiny clouds to the sky using the Comic Strip Everyday die set, and scattered on some tiny clay hearts above the little gnome's head.

Then, I stamped a sentiment from the set on a white banner die cut, and popped that up in the grass on my scene. The entire panel was adhered to an A2 card base with foam tape, and to finish off the card, I added a few white gel pen accents.

Designer's Choice Cards with Marine and Marieke

Hey crafty friends, Marine here with you today! I'm super happy to be back on the blog with this duo of cute and bright cards. They feature the butterfly stamp from the Watering Can stamp set, I didn't get a chance to use that stamp before, and I thought it would be nice to use with rainbow colors.

I started by cutting a 6 x 3" mini slimline white panel, and an 8,5 x 3,5" slimline white panel. On the mini slimline panel I printed texture using the Moroccan Circles embossing folder, and on the slimline panel I added texture by creating lines each quarter of an inch using a ball tool.

I gold heat embossed a bunch of butterflies on vellum, and I cut them using the coordinating die. I used that same coordinating die to cut colorful butterflies. And I white heat embossed a "Thinking of you" sentiment from Watering Can on a black banner. 

Next I assembled the cards. On the mini slimline panel, I added a vertical row of butterflies. I first attached plain butterflies in a rainbow order using foam squares, tucked my "Thinking of you" sentiment between two butterflies, and then stuck a golden butterfly on each plain butterfly using liquid glue.

And on the slimline panel, I stamped a simple "Hello" sentiment from Lovely Lilacs, attached plain butterflies in zigzag using foam squares, and then added a golden butterfly on each plain butterfly. And I finished both cards by gluing clear droplets to bring more light.

And that's it! They're both super pretty and they were very quick to make so it would definitely be easy to mass produce them. I hope that those cards will inspire you. As always I leave with the process video so feel welcome to check it out for more details (click on the image above)! Thank you so much for stopping by, and see you next time!

Hello Sunny Studio Friends, Marieke here. Today I hope to inspire you with a personalized card that I made especially for the amazing owner of Sunny Studio; Mendi! 

I ink blended Cracked Pistachio, Peacock Feathers, Dried Marigold, Worn Lipstick and Picked Raspberry on to a piece of cardstock and I die cut it. Splattered some water and adhered it onto a slightly larger rectangle.

Out of white cardstock I cut the word Thanks using the Thank You Word Dies four times and glued them together. Die cut the name Mendi and adhered both in the middle of the card. Heat set the other sentiments that are in the Fabulous Flamingo set on pink cardstock. Die cut the small sentiment and cut the other one using my scissors.

Used Copic Colors:
Flamingo - RV13, RV42, R01, R00 / C5,C3,C1,0 / Y13, Y11
Green - YG67, YG63, YG03, YG01
Brown - E47, E44, E43
Dark Green - G28, G09, G07
Pink - R85, R83, R81

Stamped the images out of the Fabulous Flamingos and Tropical Scenes stamps. Colored them up using my Copic markers and cut them using the Fabulous Flamingos and Tropical Scenes Dies.

Adhered the background on to a pink top fold base card and added all the images using different heights of foam tape.

Designer's Choice Cards with Gladys and Alma

Hello friends! Gladys here, sharing my card using a bunch of images from different stamp sets and dies to make this cute scene.

First I ink blended the background panel using distress oxide inks and a cloud stencil. I used kitsch flamingo for the pink sky and mowed lawn on the bottom panel.

Next, I stamped the images from Just Bee-cause, tree branch from Little Birdie, flowers and butterflies from Bunnyville stamp sets. I colored them with copic markers and used their coordinating dies to cut them out.

I die cut the Picket Fence Border from white woodgrain cardstock. This die also comes with a grass border which I used to cut from green cardstock. Once I was happy with the placement of all the elements I used foam squares or liquid glue to adhere them onto the panel. I decided to mat the panel on pattern paper to give a nice pink border. I also added the bee trails and star dust stickles on the bees and butterflies wings (after photo was taken).

That is all for me today, thank you for stopping by. Have a wonderful day!

Hi, this is Alma and today I'm going to show you a shaker card.

As a base for my card, I punched 2 cards out of white cardstock using the largest slimline punch from the Slimline Pennant Dies set. I then used the cloud die from the Slimline Nature Borders Dies set to cut out a stencil and swiped clouds in the Distress Oxide Inks Spun Sugar and Victorian Velvet  onto both cards.

Then I punched a frame into one of the two cards with the middle slimline die from the Slimline Pennant Dies set and glued a foil behind it. Using 3D tape I finished the shaker card and filled it with Crystal Clear Jewels.

Now I stamped, coloured and cut out the mice from the Harvest Mice Stamps and Merry Mice Stamps sets. Then I stamped the text from the Inside Greetings Congrats Stamps on the cloud background.

I decorated the shaker card with the fence from the Picket Fence Border Dies and the clouds from the Slimline Nature Borders set and glued everything together! Finished!
