Simply The Best

Hello crafters!  I cut the Wild Daisy Cover Plate with a piece of black card on top of a piece of white card.  I proceeded to paper piece all the design by cutting the die again out of the various colours of card.  I cut ruby red, cardinal red, bright yellow, black gloss and glittered white card .  I cut the Simply The Best from Wordie sheets and added it with mounting foam.   Once I finished paper piecing, I added a white mat and a red folded piece to create  the inside.  I cut the 3D Card Maker in white and glued it inside the red folded card.  I used the Dynamic Daisies cut in shades of red and yellow to cover the pop up part of the die.  I added greenery from the Fabulous Foliage die set.  For the top of the pop u insert, I cut two clouds in white from the Twinkle Twinkle Clouds and Stars die set.  I cut the side daisy ad glued it to the stem and attached it next to the cloud.  For the bottom part of the insert, I cut the same side daisy, but I did one in red and one in yellow and cut two stems and glued them together.  I added the Hello Dear Friend sentiment cut in black next to it.  The finished dimensions are 5"  x  6" when closed.  


All for now, Sue x

Candy Cane Wishes & Mistletoe Kisses

Hello bloggers!  I started by cutting the Pierced Lattice Background twice out of white card.  I crisscrossed the dies, then added a piece of white card covered with a sticky adhesive sheet to it.  I coated the remaining exposed sticky areas with Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz.  I cut the Candy Canes out of Ruby Red card and added a white backing to them.  I crisscrossed them and added them to the middle of the card.  I cut a bow out of red glittered card and added it across the two candy canes.  I accented it with two greenery sprays.  I cut eight holly leaves and added them in twos to the corners of the card with red berries coated with Cosmic Lacquer.  I cut the sentiment from the Festive Wordie sheets and put part on top and the rest of the saying on the bottom of the card.  I added the entire piece to a larger piece of white card where I glittered the edges with Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz.  The card was completed with white and red mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6 3/4"  x  6 3/4  in size.


  All for now, Sue x

 Hi bloggers!  I selected a piece of Heather card to use for the background.  I stamped the bone stamp from the Pet Pals Stamp set in black all over the background.  I covered it with a piece of sticky adhesive sheet, then peeled the backing paper off and coated it with Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz.  I cut the Stained Glass Squares in white and backed it with Heather card.  I cut Pet Pal Max out of tan card then coloured his fur black on top and brown on his nose.  I cut a neckerchief out of heather card and glued it into place.  I added a small purple flower to his tail and a letter with a purple heart in his mouth.  I added purple hearts all around him.  I cut the Just Because sentiment out of both heather and black card.  I shadowed the sentiment with the black die cut then added it to a white shadow backing piece and attached it below the focal element with mounting foam.  The card was completed with white, heather and black mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7 1/2"  x  8 1/4" in size.

May Your Days Be Merry & Bright

Good Sunday morning all!  I started by stamping the snowflake from the Santa stamp set all over a piece of white card.  I used a clear perfect medium pad to stamp it with and sprinkled white embossing powder over the stamped images and heated them.  Next I cut the Looped Rectangles in black.  I cut a matching frame using the Double Stitched Rectangles in white.  I added mounting foam to the back of the frame, then added it to another piece of white card.  I taped the frame to the Looped Rectangles and added it to the card with mounting foam.  I cut the cottage from the Winter Wonderland die set in tan and backed it with a piece of custard card.  I added a tan colored roof and filled in the detail with a fine tipped felt pen.  I added several trees behind the building and next to it.  I cut the deer and baby out of brown card and glued them in front of the trees.  I added Iced Snow to the top of the trees and building for a frosty look.  I cut the May Your Days be Merry & Bright sentiment in black and glued it to a white shadow backing piece.  I added it below the focal element with mounting foam.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7 3/4"  x  8 3/4"  in size.

Tis The Season

 Hello bloggers!  I started this card by cutting the Pierced Lattice background in both silver sparkle and black card.  I offset the two colours then added a black backing piece.  I cut the Christmas Angel 2024 out of both milk card and silver sparkle card.  I used the milk die cut as the base and I coloured the angel's hair and skin with pencils.  I nipped away the dress from the silver die cut, backed it in white and glued it to the milk die cut.  I cut the wings out of white card coated with Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz and added them to the angel.  I cut the banner out of black card and glued the "Tis The season sentiment to it from the Festive Wordies sheets.  I added the angel to the middle of the card with mounting foam.  I cut the poinsettia from the Stylish Poinsettia die set out of Silver Sparkle card and added it to the corner with two white leaves as accents.  The entire card was added to a larger piece of white card that I glittered the edges with Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz.  The card was completed with white and black mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7"  x  7"  in size.
