All Geared Up To Celebrate
Hello there my crafty friends! I started with a piece of black gloss card to use as the background. From the Assorted Tool Border die set, I cut the border made up of tools nine time out of black card. I glued the borders to the background, alternating the direction of the borders every other one. I cut the Double Stitched Rectangles and made a thin frame cut from black gloss card. I added mounting foam to the back of the frame, then attached it to a piece of milk card. I added the frame to the background with mounting foam. I cut the Volkswagen from the Classic car die set out of taupe card. I used a pencil to add the detail to the car and a white pencil to add some soft highlights to the car. I added it to the inside of the frame with mounting foam. I cut the All Geared Up To Celebrate sentiment in black and glued it to a shadow backing piece before adding it below the framed car. The card was completed with milk and black mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7 1/2" x 7 1/2" in size.

For You
Hello bloggers! I selected Sherbet, black and white card for today's card. I started by cutting the outer die from the Diamond Radiance Background into the sherbet card. I cut the die again but into white card. I used the white die cut as an offset shadow behind the sherbet card die cut. I added a black card behind as a backing piece. I cut the Dazzling Diamonds die in white and layered it on to the middle of the background. I cut the Art Deco For You sentiment in black. I cut a small white square, then matted it with a thin black mat and glued it to the centre of the card. Using the Double Stitched Rectangle die set, I cut a thin white frame and glued it to the sherbet background. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 6 3/4" x 8" in size.

Merry Christmas
Hello crafters! I cut two of the Poinsettia Ribbon Wave die with a piece of black card on top of a piece of white card. This gave me two embossed pieces of white card that I was able to use to colour the images. Once I finished colouring them, I covered both of them with a piece of sticky adhesive sheet. I peeled the backing paper off then added the black die cuts to each of them. I coated them with Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz, then trimmed the excess sticky sheet from around the edges. I added small flatback pearls to each of the poinsettia centres as accents. I glued them both to a piece of white card. I cut the Noble Merry Christmas die in Ruby Red card and glued it to the middle of the card between the two die cuts. The card was completed with white and red mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 6 3/4" x 9" in size.
