Stitched Oval Die Focused Cards with Vanessa and Audrey

Hello to you! Vanessa here with a rocking card using the Stitched Oval 2 Dies and Scalloped Oval Mat 1 Dies.

To create the base, I simply die-cut the largest Scalloped Oval from white cardstock and scored the middle. Then I die-cut the stitched oval and embossed it with the Cable Knit Embossing Folder. I die-cut a little snow hill and adhered the piece to the card base. After I had backed the oval with another one on the back, I die-cut the greenery and adhered these. Now I stamped the foxes, colored the images with Copic markers, die-cut the pieces with the matching dies and adhered them with foam tape. 

Supplies used:
Foxy Christmas stamps + dies
Bear Hugs stamps
Stitched Oval 2 Dies
Scalloped Oval Mat 1 Dies
Cable Knit Embossing Folder
Winter Greenery Dies
Slimline Nature Border Dies

I stamped and heat-embossed the sentiment onto a strip of red cardstock, notched the edges and adhered the strip. Finally, I added clear gems to the card.

Have a wonderful weekend everybody! Thanks for stopping by!

Hello friends!  Audrey here with a fun and frosty card to share with you today! 

To create this card, I started off by adhering a piece of polka dot paper from the All Is Bright 6x6 paper pad to the front of an A2 card base. Then, using more patterned papers from the collection, I die cut the largest oval from both the Stitched Oval 2 Dies and the Scalloped Oval Mat 1 Dies. I splattered on some watered down white paint to the stitched die cut and adhered them together with liquid glue. Then, I ran the Stitched Oval die through my die cut machine twice more with white glitter paper and the Slimline Nature Border dies to create the snowy hills to ground my adorable snowmen.

I stamped and colored two snowmen and the tree from Feeling Frosty stamp set, and die cut them with the coordinating Feeling Frosty dies. I arranged my scene, and popped the elements up with foam tape for added dimension. Then, I stamped a sentiment from the set on a banner die cut, and tucked a few tiny snowflakes around it to fill the sky. The snowflakes are from the Basic Mini Shapes II die set. Finally, I adhered the oval focal point to the card base, and added some white gel pen accents and tiny clay hearts to finish off my card.

Chloe Number Die Focused Cards with Anja and Marine

Hello everyone, Anja here and today I'm featuring the Chloe Number Dies which allow you to easily personalize a birthday card. I created the card for a sweet girl which will be turning 12 soon.

I started off with a white square card base that measures 4.75" x 4.75". I really like the color combo of the All Is Bright 6x6 Paper pack. Not only are these happy colors great for your holiday projects but they also work for other occasions as well. I trimmed the striped paper to a 4.5"x4.5" size and adhered it to the card base.

With one of the Scalloped Tag Square Dies and the partial die cutting technique I created a scalloped square without the top hanger piece. I stamped the sentiment from the Inside Greetings Birthday set in VersaMark Ink and heat embossed it with silver embossing powder. Then I adhered the white scalloped square to the center of my card using foam tape.

Next, I stamped the images in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I picked the peeking cat and the big gift from the Christmas Critters set as well as the stack of gifts included in the Lazy Christmas set. I also added the small single gift (Holiday Express) and the heart balloon (Penguin Pals). All images were colored with Copic Markers and I used the coordinating dies to cut them out.

I assembled my little birthday scene by adhering the images with liquid glue. Finally, I die cut the numbers from glitter cardstock and put them on top of the red gift.

Thank you so much for stopping by! Hope you have a fabulous day!

Hey crafty friends, Marine here to share with you a super cute and fun safari birthday pop-up card. It was my first time coloring those cute critters and I had so much fun! And because we're celebrating a birthday with this card, I added a badge on the front with a number using the Chloe Number die set. I chose the number three, but depending on the person you're celebrating, child or grown up, you can add any number.

As always I gathered lots of images from different sets to build and create my little scene:
Savanna Safari for the critters
Seasonal Trees for the big palm trees
Sending Sunshine for the small palm trees
Best Fishes for the plants
Balloon Rides for the banner + party hats

The first thing I did was to stamp the images using an alcohol marker friendly black ink, and I colored them using my alcohol markers. And once everything (critters, leaves and palm trees) were done, I created the card base. I cut all the papers to build it, including a green pattern paper from the Sweater Weather 6x6 paper pack. And I invite you to watch the process video down below to see how I built the pop-up card. Explaining an interactive mechanism is always easier with a video.

So once the pop-up card was complete, I attached the images inside the card. And to stick them more easily and do a clean job, with no excess of glue, I used acetate. I cut pieces of acetate that I attached at the back of each image using glue dots, and then I attached the images inside the card by sticking the acetate pieces on the grass borders using glue dots again.

Next I created the small badge to put on the front of the card. I cut a scalloped circle out of a blue pattern paper using the smallest die from Scalloped Circle Mat 3, as well as a smaller circle out of the same kraft cardstock as the card base using a die from Wrap Around Box. I also cut the number three out of a yellow pattern paper using the Chloe Number die set. I layered those elements on top of each other, and stuck the badge on the front of the card using foam squares. The blue and yellow pattern papers I used to make this badge are from the Sweater Weather 6x6 paper pack.

And at the end, I thought it would be nice to make the card more festive so I stamped and colored some party hats  that I glued on each critter's head.

And that's it! Now let's celebrate someone special day with those cute little friends in the savanna! I leave you with the process video (click on the image above), feel welcome to check it out! Thanks for stopping by and see you next week!

Forest Tree Stencil Focused Cards with Julia and Franci

Hello friends! It’s Julia here and today I want to share this wintery scene card with you!

First, I stamped my cute polar bears from Bear Hugs onto Bristol Smooth cardstock and I colored them in using Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers.

I die-cut two hills using the Slimline Nature Borders as well as the largest of the Fancy Frames Rectangle out of white cardstock. I added a little bit of Salvaged Patina on the edge of the snowy hills for some definition. Then, it was time to create my background. I added a little bit of Milled Lavender to the center of my panel and after that, I used the Forest Tree Stencils to add three tree lines to the scene. For those, I used Cracked Pistachio and Evergreen Bough. I started with the lightest layer of color and stencil no. 3, then a little more intense color with stencil no. 2, and finally the darkest layer with stencil no. 1! Then, to finish the background, I ink blended the top of the panel with more Milled Lavender as well as Wilted Violet, Blueprint Sketch, Chipped Sapphire, and Black Soot. I also added lots of white splatters for a snowy look!

I adhered the background to a card base and the hills on top. I also die-cut lots of Lacy Snowflakes and added those as well. I only added a little bit of glue to the center of the snowflakes, so they still have a bit of dimension on the edges! I layered the scalloped frame over the entire panel.

Finally, I heat embossed the sentiment onto a strip of black cardstock and I added my cute polar bears to the scene.

I absolutely love wintery scene cards and I had so much fun making this one. I really hope you like it. Have a wonderful week!

Hi there! It's Franci here with you today, showcasing the Forest Tree stencil. This new 3 layers stencil is amazing to create your forest backgrounds so quickly! 

First of all I die cut all the panels out of white cardstock and patterned paper from the All Is Bright set using the Scalloped Oval Mat 1 Dies and the Stitched Oval Dies. Then I created a hill out of my white oval panel using the Slimline Nature Borders Dies.

Then I stamped my sentiment and my images from the Lazy Christmas set. I colored my sloth with Copics and die cut everything out with their coordinated dies.

I inked my forest onto the dotted light blue panel with different Distress inks, created a matching card base and assembled the card as shown. Finally I added some details with a white gel pen, a little heart confetti and some glitter. 

Hope you like this festive card as much as I do and thanks a lot for stopping by today!
