Fabulous Flamingos Cards with Lexa and Rachel

Hi everyone! Lexa here today with a card highlighting Fabulous Flamingos Stamps and the coordinating dies. This stamp set has a summer vibe that's so lovely and beautiful. So I decided to create this card with sunset sky as background.

First I blended some Distress Inks in Worn Lipstick, Wild Honey and Squeezed Lemonade to create the sunset sky. I use a handmade circle window stencil to create this look. Many of you may have tried to make one before, but in case you haven't all you need is any circle dies or you can cut the circle manually with craft cutter on a piece of acetate sheet. It's so easy and you can use it again later for another projects, How awesome is that!

I stamped all the images with Versafine black ink and watercolor them with Distress Markers. My personal favorite of all time. I stamped many flowers and leaves too because I need them to create some kind of frame around the pretty flamingos. After I finished with the coloring I use the coordinating dies to cut all the pieces. Then I'm all ready to arrange them on the card base.

I add some yellow gems on the center of the pink flowers. They look so shiny and beautiful as accents. As for the sentiment I stamped it on the pink fishtail banner and adhere it on the bottom center of my card. I'm super happy with the result. Yay!

Here's the closer look of my card so you can see the details and dimensions I tried to achieve. Thank you so much for stopping by today and I hope you enjoy today's post as much as I do! Have an amazing day everyone.

Hello, friends! It's Rachel here and I have a tropical pop-up card to share with you today featuring the Fabulous Flamingos Stamp Set!

I stamped all of my images with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink, colored them with Copics, and then used the coordinating Fabulous Flamingo Die Set to cut them out. I then created the base of my card.

Box Card Dimensions:

• Trim 2 sheets of card stock to 6.0" x 4.25"
• Score both pieces along the 6" side at 3.5" & 5.5"
• Score both pieces along the 4.25" side at 2 1/8"
• Trim down to the center along the score lines on the 6" side and create a tab on each end with the 1/2" score
• Trim 3-4 inner shelves at 4.25" and score each piece at 3/8" & 3 7/8"
• Assemble as shown

I added some palm trees using the new Seasonal Trees Stamp Set. This is one of my favorite sets because it can be used all year round. It really comes in hand by adding that extra special touch to your card details. I used the coordinating Seasonal Trees Die Set to cut them out.

To give my card more of a beach-feel, I added some sand dunes using the Wavy Border Dies. I cut 4 of these dunes by trimming a few pieces of white card stock to 3.5" x 3" and then used the Wavy Border Dies to add those wavy borders. I then blended each piece with some Antique Linen and Frayed Burlap Distress Oxide Inks. I added some random dots (for more detail) onto each strip using some dark brown Copic Markers and a White Gel Pen. My patterned paper accents came from the gorgeous Summer Splash Paper Pack. Lastly, I heat embossed my sentiment with Fine Detail White Embossing Powder onto some black card stock.

Thanks so much for dropping by! Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

Silly Sloths Cards with Vanessa and Anja

Hi everyone! Vanessa here with a shaker card using the adorable Silly Sloths Stamps. Who can resist those cute creatures?

I started with a panel of white cardstock and inked it with blue and green Distress Oxide Inks. Because I thought this turned out too bright and bold, I wanted to use vellum to mute the colors. I trimmed a piece of vellum the same size as the panel, stamped and heat-embossed the sentiment and sewed the vellum to the panel. First, I sewed three sides, filled this pocket with sequins, closed the shaker with my sewing machine and adhered the panel to the card.

Now I stamped the sloths and the leaves with light brown ink, colored them with colored pencils, die-cut the elements with the matching dies and adhered everything to the card.

Thank you for visiting today! See you next week :)

Hello everyone, Anja here and I'm happy to share a birthday card with you featuring the most adorable Silly Sloths Stamps. Aren't they cute?!

First, I created an A2 card base from white cardstock and adhered a piece of the cloudy sky paper from the Summer Splash 6x6 Paper pack. I stamped the sloths and greenery in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored them with Copic Markers. I used the coordinating dies to cut the images out.

Next, I stamped the sentiments in VersaMark Ink onto strips of black cardstock and heat embossed them with white embossing powder. Finally, I assembled the card and added two red die-cut hearts.

Thank you so much for stopping by! Hope to see you again next week!

Fluffy Clouds with Franci and Mona

Hi there and happy Wednesday! Franci here with all of you today with a colorful happy card featuring the Fluffy Clouds set by Sunny Studio.

I created my card base in white and then I die cut lots of fluffy clouds out of the same cardstock. Then I die cut a piece of rainbow paper from the Surprise Party pad and a little sun from the Classic Gingham pad using the die included in the Comic Strip Everyday dies set.

I layered everything on to my card and glued all the elements down with a combo of liquid glue and foam adhesive. I also added some sequins at the top and some details with the Wink of Stella clear brush.

Finally I stamped my sentiment from the Over the Rainbow set on the bottom and added a little heart from the Home Sweet Gnome set.

Hope you like my card and are now inspired to create something happy! Have a lovely day!

Hi crafty friends! It's Mona here, today I am showing you a really easy interactive card with the Fluffy Clouds Dies.

I started the card making with ink blending with Shaded Lilac and Spun Sugar Distress Oxide Inks.

Next I styled the clouds with the stitched edges on the background, and I ran them through my die-cut machine.

Next I created the rainbow stripes with my Copic Sketch Markers. I used a ruler and I made rainbow stripes with the chisel nib. Used Copics: Y13,RV02, BG01, BG11,BV00.

Once it was done I stamped and colored the cute stars with the Best Fishes Stamp Set and for some stars I made a clear die-cut too and I adhered clear fishing lines between the papers so when I shake my card it will shake too. When it was done I stamped the sentiments from the Over the Rainbow sentiment stamp with black ink to the teal cardstock.

The next step was the die-cutting! YAY! I die-cut 2 parts of the Rainbow Word die sentiment and I adhered a clear fishing line between the die-cuts then I styled the sentiment. Once it was done, I adhered it to the back side of the front paper, and because of this the sentiment can move.

When it was done I made 4pc of Fluffy Cloud die-cut, folded them in half and adhered together and I got a cool 3D cloud. I repeated the process and I also made "single" clouds too, and added eyes to them with a bubble stamp from the Best Fishes stamp set.

In the end I put my card together and I can tell you, I really love this soft and cute result. I hope you like this inspiration, have an amazing day. Bye.

Wrap Around Gift Boxes with Juliana and Mendi

Hello friends! It's Juliana with you today to share a Happy Birthday gift box featuring the Wrap Around Box Dies and a mix of stamps from the Best Fishes Stamps and Oceans of Joy Stamps. I recently shared a sloth themed birthday gift box featuring this Wrap Around Box Dies.

To get started I took a piece of Bristol Paper and die cut the gift box using the Wrap Around Box Dies. Following the instructions, I assembled the box and put it to the side. Next, I took the stitched rectangle die included with this die set and cut 4 panels from Bristol Paper. I choose to use Bristol Paper because I wanted to color them using Distress Inks and I find this ink blends wonderfully on this paper.

I knew I wanted to create an underwater ocean scene. However, instead of regular die cutting and layering, I decided to go for an inlaid design. To achieve this, I took the Catch A Wave Dies and the Woodland Border Dies and used them to create an inlaid design on the die cut stitched rectangles. Using Therm O Web Purple Tape, I taped the dies down onto the die cut rectangle piece and ran them through my die cut machine. I then applied Distress Oxide ink in Salty Ocean to the water pieces and Frayed Burlap and Vintage Photo to the bottom piece.

To give the wave die cut pieces a more underwater look, I splattered water onto them and dabbed it dry with a paper towel. This removed some of the ink and gave me the look of water bubbles. For the sand, I splattered these pieces with watered down brown and black paint. White I waited for everything to dry, I die cut 4 more stitched rectangles. I then put each of the panels back together, and adhered them to the rectangles. They were then ready to attach to the gift box. For the top section of the gift box, I once again used Bristol Paper and inked it with Salty Ocean Distress Oxide.

I then went about stamping and coloring a bunch of images from the Best Fishes Stamps and Oceans of Joy Stamps. To color the images, I used Copic Markers and then die cut them using the Best Fishes Dies and Oceans of Joy Dies. Once all of the coloring was finished, I began grouping the images together to create a scene for each side of the box. I used double sided foam adhesive to adhere some of the images for a bit of dimension.

To complete the gift box, I die cut a tag from Wrap Around Box Dies and then added a sentiment and a couple of starfish from the Best Fishes Stamps. I then punched a hole in one of the top pieces of the box and tied on the tag with a piece of green and white baker's twine.

Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope you enjoyed this bit of birthday gift box inspiration featuring the Wrap Around Box Dies!

Hello there!  Mendi here, filling in for Angelica today. I'm excited to be sharing a patriotic themed treat box using the Wrap Around Box dies. To carry out my theme, I turned to my favorite Classic Gingham and Polka-dot Parade 6x6 Paper Packs.  

I started by cutting four of the box panels from white cardstock and then four of the stitched rectangles to decorate the sides from the white gingham patterned paper. This type of pattern doesn't matter which direction it's turned so I was able to get all four sides from a single 6x6 sheet, by turning the die horizontal for two and and vertical for the remaining two. I then just die-cut portions of the rectangle from the red and blue versions, hanging the die off my paper and trimming them down to just over an inch.

To embellish my box, I turned to star dies from our Window Trio Square Dies and Fancy Frames Square Dies sets, cutting them from Red, white and blue textured cardstock. To add a little something extra, I then layered each of them with some Americana Star Crystals.

As a last touch, I created a matching tag from my scraps using the Wrap Around Box die set, stamping and heat embossing it with a sentiment from our Happy Thoughts Stamps (and the word "happy" from our Fabulous Flamingos Stamps).

I hope we've inspired you to create some fun summer themed treat boxes of your own. They are so much fun to decorate for all sorts of occasions!
