Pet Sympathy Angel Puppy Shaker Card with Nancy

Hey there everyone, Nancy here today with a shaker full of love highlighting the Pet Sympathy stamp and coordinating die set. I love that this set features both cats and dogs - the angel wings don't hurt either. These are perfect for sending a heartfelt sentiment for the loss of beloved pet.

I started this card by stamping the stitched heart randomly on the base of the card. A few of the hearts were painted with watercolors for a soft look and a punch of color. The smaller stitched rectangle was die cut with a heart directly in the center to create a window for the shaker. Next, I used Distress Inks in Chipped Sapphire, Tumbled Glass and Broken China to create the ink blended background. The sentiment was stamped in black and the back was popped up with foam tape and filled with clear crystals and blue sequins.

The sweet dog was colored with Distress Inks for a soft, watercolored effect. A pair of angel wings was affixed to the back and he was placed on a bed of vellum clouds.

Quilted Hexagons Rainbow Birthday Card with Eloise

Hi everyone, Eloise here and today I have a rainbow card for you all using the new Quilted Hexagons stamp and coordinating dies. This set for me screams rainbow and fun colour combo designs. This set is perfect for simple or elaborate backgrounds and is going to be a new favourite for me!

To begin my card I stamped the long line of hexagons along a piece of white cardstock. I used black ink and also clear embossed over them to make sure they didn't smudge at all. Once everything was stamped, I moved onto die cutting the hexagons to fit inside.

Before cutting them all out, I cut two pieces of watercolour paper into strips and ink blended all of them with a different colour of Distress Ink using rainbow colours. So one pink, one red, one orange etc. Once they were all inked I splattered them with water and dried them. I then used the largest hexagon die that comes with the coordinating dies and die cut 6 out of each colour. Once they were all die cut I added foam tape behind all of them.

I adhered all my hexagons in colour order into each of the stamped hexagons. So a line of pink, a line of red etc. Some of them I had to cut in half to make them fit on both ends, but six on m size of panel worked fine. Once they were all adhered I adhered my panel to a black card base.

For my sentiment, I used the Wishes Word Die and die cut it out of black cardstock. I added foam tape behind and adhered it to the right side of my card. I also then pulled the Oceans of Joy stamp set out and stamped the 'birthday' word from the stamp set onto black cardstock and white heat embossed it. I trimmed it out on my trimmer and adhered it to my card also and that finished up my card.

Thanks for stopping by today, I love making rainbow cards - they're always so fun and easy to pull together! Hope you were inspired and I'll catch you all next time!
