Just For You

Good Sunday morning all!  A crisp blue and white card for the blog today!  I selected a piece of cobalt blue card as my base and cut the Triple Column Background  to go on it.  Next I cut the Basketweave Background in white  and added a white backing piece to it.  I cut a frame for it using the Double Stitched Rectangle die set and added it with foam mounting over it.  I cut away the excess of the background and added foam to the back and attached it to the middle of the Triple Column Background.  I cut the Just For You sentiment out of cobalt blue card and glued it into the top of the frame.  Using the Petite Forget Me not die set, I made three scrunched flowers and edges them with Chipped Sapphire ink.  I seated them in the corner of the frame and added white leaves as accent.  I tucked a white satin bow under them.  The card was completed with white and cobalt blue mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7 1/2" x  9" in size.  All for now, Sue x

All The Best

Hi there my crafty friends!  I pulled out my Rows Of Bows Pinpoint embossing folder to start this card off and embossed a piece of white card.  Next I cut two Herringbone Backgrounds and crisscrossed them and glued them together.  I used my paper cutter to cut two sections off, then added a very thin sliver of white card over the top to hide the cut edge on the end.  I cut a piece of Old Rose card to go behind it and glued it to my embossed background as a border.  I used the Double Stitched Circles to cut two thin frames out of Old Rose card and I attached the to the edges of a wider frame cut from Powder pink card.  I added it to the centre of the card.  I made three Triple Layer Wildflowers, changing the order of the card colours on each.  I glued one to the frame and two of them to the border and added leaves as accents.  I used the All The Best Shadowed sentiment in old rose on a white shadow and glued it into the centre of the frame.  The card was completed with white and old rose mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7" x  8 1/2" in size.  All for now, Sue x

Many Thanks

Hi bloggers!  I just had to have a play with the new Holographic Sparkle Shakers!  I started by cutting the Herringbone Background out of coconut white card.  I covered another piece of white card with a self adhesive sticky sheet and attached the background to it.  Next I used the Holographic Sparkle Shakers and tapped them all over the
background.  What colour, you ask?  Well, all of them!!  The background is a conglomeration of all of the shaker colours and I just loved the way they all blended together so nicely!  I made a frame using the Double Stitched Rectangles and added it with foam mounting tape.  I cut the Many Thanks shadowed sentiment out of silver mirror card and glued it to a Pierced Flag.  I tucked the end under the frame then added two Wildflowers that I made using the top layer and then added a base of the Silver Rainbow Holographic Glitter.  I added a pearl the centres then seated the flowers on the edge of the frame with some leaves.  I finished off the card with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6 1/2" x  7 3/4" in size.  All for now, Sue x

You're Wonderful

Hello crafters!  I have a Roxy STDF (stamp to die for)  card to share today.   I started with a piece of coconut white card and cut the Eliza die into the card in opposite corners.  Next I stamped the Roxy's Hydrangea and Ivy stamp (STDF) on to white card and cut it out with the matching Roxy outer die.  I used Distress markers to colour it in.  I stamped it a second time, but just the Hydrangea portion and cut it out by hand and layered it up with foam on to the stamped image.  I added vellum to back the Eliza cut outs and then mounted the stamped image in the centre of the card with foam.  I stamped a small sentiment in the opening on the stamp in black ink.  I added three pearls in opposite corners and completed the card with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7" x  8 3/42 in size.  All for now, Sue x

All The Best

 Hi bloggers!   I started today's card by cutting the top die of the Tina set into the edge of a piece of coconut white card  Next I cut the second layer out of Ocean card four time and lined them up underneath the edge with each of the four top cuts.  I added a piece of black card to cover the back and act as the bottom layer for the border.  I cut the Jocelyn die out of Ocean card and backed it in white.  I used the outer dies from the set to make a thin black frame and glued it on to the Jocelyn die.  I added mounting foam and seated it in the centre of the card.  I used the All The Best Shadowed sentiment cut in black and added to a white shadow and added it to the middle of the die cut with foam.  The card was completed with white, Ocean and black mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7" x  9 1/2" in size.  All for now, Sue x

Just For You


Hi crafters!  It's Lola's day on the blog today!  I started with a piece of coconut white card and embossed it with the Tulip Twist embossing folder.  Next I cut the Millie die in white and backed it with white.  I used the outer dies to cut a frame around in Teal card.  Next I used the Lola die and cut the top layer out of aqua card. The second layer out of Ocean card and the bottom layer out of teal card.  I cut and assembled three of these the same way.  I used two of them and taped one to each end of the Millie die vertically.  I cut the last one in half and used it horizontally  coming out from between the centres of the two dies on the ends.  It added a nice pop of colour to the card. I cut the Beatrice die in white and added a white backing to it.  I attached it in the centre of the Millie die. I used the Petite Forget Me Not flowers to make two small flowers to embellish the focal element.  I added some leaves cut out of white card.  I cut the Just For You sentiment in both aqua and teal card.  I used the teal to shadow behind the aqua and glued it into place in the centre of the card.  The card was completed with white, aqua and teal mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6 3/4" x  9" in size.  All for now, Sue x
