Love

Hello crafters!  I still have more cards to share from the earlier Romance collection so here is one more for you!  I started by embossing a piece of white card with the Heart to Heart embossing folder. Next I cut the outer part of the Lacy Stained Glass Heart die in white and added small pearls to each of the arms radiating outward.  I cut the middle heart die in red and backed it with a piece of white card that was glittered with Diamond White glitter, then attached it to the white backing die cut.  Next, I cut the Love die in red then I cut the outer backing die in white and paper pieced the red letters into it.  I added it below with mounting foam.  I cut a small flower from the Pierced Layered Flower die set, glittered it then added it to the top of the sentiment with some white foliage around it. The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7"  x  8"  in size.  All for now, Sue x

Happy Spring

Hello crafters!  I began today's card by embossing a piece of white card with the Padded Quilt embossing folder.  Next I cut the Layering Eggs die and made a white frame which I glittered with Diamond White glitter.   I added mounting foam to the back and attached a piece of white card to the back to which I had lightly inked some clouds.  I cut the Snowflake Edger in green to make grass for the bottom of the egg. then cut the Chocolate Bunny die out of blush card.  I added a yellow ribbon and used Fluffy Stuff on the tail.  The fine detail was added with a fine tipped marker.  I attached the egg to the middle of the card.  I cut the Happy Spring sentiment out of a variety of pastel card colours.  I used custard, aqua, lilac, sky blue, and wisteria card.  I arranged the sentiment around the top and bottom of the egg using mounting foam.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7 1/4"  x  8 1/4"  in size.  All for now, Sue x

Have A Magical Day

Hi bloggers!  I started this pretty floral card by embossing a piece of white card with the Tidal Sand embossing folder.  Next I cut two of the Butterfly Clusters out of white card. When I cut each of them, I used two pieces of white card as I ran them through the die cutting machine.  I used the bottom copy, which is basically just an embossed version of the die, to colour in all the flowers and butterflies.  I did both of them in the same colours then glued the die cut on top and attched them to the sides of the card.  I cut the Have A Magical Day sentiment cut in Amethyst card and glued it to the centre of the card.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6 3/4"  x  9"  in size.  All for now, Sue x

Sending Lots Of Love

Hi bloggers!  This is another really quick and easy card to make.  I started by cutting the Heart Background out of both white and black card.  I used the black die cut as an offset shadow behind the white die cut.  Next I covered a piece of black card with a sticky adhesive sheet.  I peeled the backing paper off and proceeded to add small pinches of different coloured gilding flakes.  I used Wild Wisteria, Ocean Waves, Candy Pink, Vintage Chrome and Rose Gold Gilding Flakes.  I used a rubit scrubit pad to move the flakes all over the background and lightly refine and remove the excess flakes.  I glued the piece behind the background.  I cut a sentiment from the Love Wordie sheets and added it across the bottom of the card.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 5 3/4"  x  7 1/4"  in size.  All for now, Sue x

Jayne

Hello bloggers!  Welcome to the penultimate post.  This post is dedicated to the other decorative shaped die, Jayne. This die set has six dies in it and it is a smaller die than Harper, but they can be layered up together very nicely if desired as shown here.  This die  looks amazing with any of the three cluster dies from yesterday as well.  If this set is calling your name, add a comment on this post for maximum entries.  The last post of the blog launch will be here at 6pm.  All for now, Sue x

Harper

Hello crafters!  The next die that I would like to showcase is Harper.  Keeping with the tradition of naming decorative shaped dies with girl's names, Harper is a beautiful die that works really well with any of the cluster dies shown yesterday.  This die set has six dies within it and they can be used to create different looks.  You can use all of the sections together as I have done here or just certain parts to create different looks.  It is a very versatile die set and one that I think you will reach for often in your crafting.  Don't forget to add a comment to the bottom of the post, but  there is still more to share.  The next post will be on the blog at 3pm today.  All for now, Sue x
