Chloe Alphabet Focused Cards with Anja and Vanessa

Hello everyone, Anja here with another inspiration project. Alphabet dies are great to create custom sentiments or to personalize your projects. I love the pretty and versatile font of the Chloe Alphabet Dies which I combined with the Just Bee-cause mini stamp set.

I started off with a white top-folding A2 card base and trimmed down a piece of Distress Watercolor Cardstock to be slightly smaller. I did some fun Ink Smooshing with Distress Oxide Inks (Scattered Straw, Mustard Seed and Dried Marigold) to create my background.

Next, I die cut the Frilly Frames Hexagon Die from vellum. I cut it apart and carefully adhered it over the ink smooshed background. I stamped three bees and the tiny heart in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored them with Copic Markers. I used the coordinating dies to cut out the images.

I spelled out the word 'bee' by die cutting the letters once from black glitter cardstock and twice from regular black cardstock. I stacked them on top of each other for more sturdiness and dimension. The word 'happy' from the Captivating Camellias set was stamped in VersaMark Ink onto a black cardstock stripe and I heat embossed it in white.

To finish off my card, I adhered the bees with foam tape and added Crystal Stickles to their wings and the little heart.

Thank you so much for stopping by! Have an awesome day!

Hello to you! Vanessa here with a personalized card using the wonderful Chloe Alphabet Dies. I love these dies, the font is just so cute!

My dear colleague is leaving and will start working in a new department. This is the card I made for her wishing her "good luck", "fun", "success", "all the best". The dies are perfect to create the matching German expressions!

For today's card, I used the following Sunny Studios sets:
Chloe Alphabet Dies
Fabulous Flamingos stamps + dies

I first die-cut all the letters I needed and measured the length of the words to determine the size of the little panels. Then I trimmed the various colored papers and adhered them to the card base. Now I colored the white letters with matching Copic markers and adhered these to the panels. Finally, I stamped the images, colored them with Copics, die-cut the elements with the matching dies and adhered everything to the card with foam tape.

Thank you for stopping by today!

Stitched Rectangle Focused Cards with Julia and Franci

Hello crafty friends! It’s Julia here with a hoppy little card!

First, I stamped all my images from Feeling Froggy, Spring Scenes, Country Scenes, Garden Fairy, and Home Sweet Gnome onto Strathmore Bristol Smooth paper and I colored them in using Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers.

I used the Stitched Rectangle dies to cut out three white panels. One panel I used for the background and the others to cut the scenery elements out of so that I would have the lovely stitching going all the way around my card! For the treetops, I used the cloud border from the Slimline Nature Borders. I also die-cut two hills and a grassy hill using the same die set! I ink blended all the pieces using Distress Oxide inks. I heat embossed the sentiment from Feeling Froggy and Candy Shoppe onto the pond piece in white.

Inks used: Tumbled Glass, Salty Ocean, Blueprint Sketch, Salvaged Patina, Twisted Citron, Cracked Pistachio, Lucky Clover, Pine Needles Distress Oxides. 

Zig Markers used: 999; 21; 41, 48, 33; 64, 65.

I adhered my background panel to a white card base and made sure to leave a nice white border.  Then, I added the scenery die-cuts with liquid glue and foam squares. Finally, I added all my cute little images!

I had lots of fun making this hoppy little birthday card and I really hope you like it!! Thank you so much for stopping by today! Have a wonderful day!

Hello there! It's Franci here with you, with a couple of happy cards.

First of all I die cut all my panels out of white cardstock and patterned paper from the Spring Fling set using the new Stitched Rectangles Dies.

Then I stamped, colored with Copics and die cut all my images from the Outback Critters set and added some details with a white gel pen.

I created some card bases out of white cardstock and covered the front with my patterned paper panels. Then I stamped my sentiments onto the white ones and inked them just a bit in the center with Distress Ink.

I glued down all my images and the panels with foam adhesive and added some little hearts from the Happy Hamster set too. 

I love making mini cards and these turned out so super cute! Hope you like them as much as I do and thanks a lot for stopping by!

Scalloped Fence Focused Cards with Kavya and Isha

Hi folks, Kavya here. I am back with another fun project to share with you all! I love it when dies/stamps are realistic and the new Scalloped Fence die has so many details that make it just perfect to create fun scenes with. I love playing with critters but I never really created a shadow box before until now. The new fence die was the just the perfect size to create a fun farm scene! When putting this together, I felt like I was transported back to middle school where I had to create mini dioramas almost every summer! 

I know that there are dies available to create shadow boxes but they are super easy to create with supplies that you already have. I used my paper trimmer to cut cardstock into the following dimensions:

- Background: 4.25” x 3.5”
- Base - 2 strips: 8.5” x 1” strip scored at 0.5”, 2.5”, 6” and 8; 3.5” x 1” strip 

Fold the base strips at the score lines and attach the smaller strip using the 0.5” tabs to create a 3.5” x 2” base. I then attached the background cardstock to the back of the base to finish off my base! 

For the grass, I started off by cutting 3 1.25” x 4.5” strips of different green colored cardstock scored at 0.5” and 4”. I used the grass die from Picket Fence to die cut the top of each panel and snipped the edges of the tabs as shown below:

I ink blended the edges of the panel with matching dye ink before adding them to my shadow box. My box is now complete for decoration! I started off by ink blending a white panel slightly smaller than 3.5” x 4.25” using shades of mint to create a ducky sky. I then stamped and colored images from the Farm Fresh stamp set. As only the bottom part of these images were going to be stuck to the grass base, I stacked 2 die cuts for each image to make it sturdier. I then adhered all these images to the shadow box. 

The Scalloped Fence die is just the perfect size to create an outer border for your shadow box card and make the farm scene more realistic! I stacked two die cuts just like my images to make it sturdier… This would add extra weight when mailing your cards though! 

I then finished off by adding a sentiment by using the Chloe Alphabet die set and the word ’there’ from Farm Fresh stamps set.

That’s it! I hope this fun card inspires you to create a fun shadowbox card if you haven’t already. Happy Crafting!

Hello everyone! Isha, here featuring the Scalloped Fence dies. These are such pretty dies with some lovely details. I get the feel of the big cottages and enchanted lands when I see it, so my card had to have a fairy...lol.

I started by sponging tumbled glass distress ink to create the sky. Flick some ink splatters and water to it. Die-cut the grass from the Slimline Nature Borders dies two times. Sponge distress inks in shabby shutters and mowed lawn. Flick water and ink. Adhere to the mat layer. Adhere this to a white card base.

Now I die-cut the Scalloped Fence three times, applied glue and over lapped them to create one single fence. I then adhered the other elements of the dies to create some dimension.

Tree and flower - Seasonal Trees stamp and Dies
Sun - Balloon Rides Stamp and Dies
Balloon, sentiment - Floating By stamp and Dies
Fairy, flower, snail - Garden Fairy stamp and Dies
Bird - Outback Critters stamp and Dies

Stamp the images, color using Copic markers and die-cut. Adhere to the card to create a scene. To finish, I applied Nuvo glitter drops to the fairy wings and a bit to the sky.  Finally spectrum noir clear sparkle pen to the balloon, fairy and flowers.

Thanks for dropping by! Have a nice day.
