Enjoy Your Day

Hello crafters!    I selected a piece of pink and white stiped paper to use as "wallpaper" for my window scene card.  I taped the paper to a piece of white card (since it isn't that thick).  Next I cut the window die with two pieces of white card and added mounting foam to the back of it.  I used the bottom white card that didn't cut but rather embossed the design onto it as my guide for the inside of the window.  I cut the sun from an older set called Rain Or Shine and glued it into the upper corner.  I cut the tree from the Swing Tree die set out of tan card and cut three of the leafy bushes to use as the head of the tree.  I cut several more of the bushes in different shades of green card and glued them into the lower right corner as shrubs.  I added a few tufts of grass and flowers below the tree and a single squirrel as an accent.  I added the window to the scene and nipped away any excess card from the edges of it.  I added it to my wallpaper with mounting foam.  I cut a small potted plant and flowers from the Windowsill Accessories die set and added it to the window ledge.  I used the Wordie sentiment of Enjoy Your Day and added it with mounting foam below the window.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6 3/4"  x  8 1/4"  in size.  All for now, Sue x

Just For You

Hi bloggers!  I embossed a piece of white card with the Heart To Heart embossing folder, then used some spray glue on it and coated it with Diamond White Glitter.  Using the Stained Glass Squares, I cut a white frame and added a raspberry backing to show through the cut out areas.  I added it to the glittered background with mounting foam.  I cut the outer die from the Lacy Stained Glass Heart die in white.  I cut the center heart using both raspberry and black card.  I shadowed it with the black die cut and glued it to the middle of the white outer die cut.  I cut a couple of the Heart Flourish die in white and added them to the top left and bottom right of the heart as I added them to the middle of the frame.  I cut the Just For You sentiment in black and glued it to the lower left corner inside the frame.  The card was completed with white, raspberry and black mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7 3/4"  x  7 3/4"  in size.  All for now, Sue x

Let The Adventure Begin

 Hi bloggers!  I started with a piece of white card and I used Distress inks to create the background in the frame.  I used Salty Ocean on the bottom, then used Barn Door, Spiced Marmalade and Fossilized Amber and blended them to make the sky.  I cut the Fishing Frame out of brown card and I cut away the fishing basket, fishing net and fishing rod.  I cut the die a second time and cut out the Gone Fishing sign and used a fine tipped black marker to go over all the lines and the words on the sign, then added it to top of the frame over the original.  I cut the frame again out of green card and cut away the cattails.  I used a brown marker on the cattails then glued them on to the frame.  I cut the frame again out of white and nipped away the fishing net.  I used a red marker to add accents, then glued it into place on the original.  I cut the canoe out of tan card and used some tea dye distress ink around the edges, then added it to the frame where the fishing rod had been cut away.  I put mounting foam on the back of the frame then added it to the inked background, trimming away any excess from around the edges of the frame.  I cut the Let The Adventure Begin sentiment in black and glued it to the inside of the frame.  I added the entire frame to a larger piece of white card.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6 1/4"  x  7 1/4"  in size. 

I will be back on Monday morning with more cards to share with you then.   All for now, Sue x

Congratulations On Your New Home

Hello crafters!  For today's card, I decided to do something a bit different and I cut the Window die twice out of tan card.  I used them horizontally and put the two together then nipped off the corner edge pieces.  Using the Garden Accessories die set, I cut the bicycle in black, the fence several times in white, the birdhouse in brown and several tulips in assorted colours.  I used an arctic blue card as the background and glued the fence along the bottom.  I added the birdhouse behind the fence and the bicycle in front of the fence.  I added a small blue bird flying towards the birdhouse and a couple of clouds from the You Are My Sunshine die set.  I cut a piece of white card and embossed it with the Twill Weave embossing folder.  I cut a piece of decorative paper from the A Gingham Christmas by Sam Poole and glued it to the bottom of the embossed card.  I added the window over the scene with mounting foam then glued it to the top of the card.  I cut the Congratulations on Your New Home sentiment in brown and added it to the white shadow backing piece and then attached it below the window.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7 1/2"  x  8"  in size.  All for now, Sue x

Love You To The Moon And Back

Hello there my crafty friends!  I cut a piece of white card and used the Heart To Heart Embossing folder on it.  Next I cut a piece of red card and attached a sticky adhesive sheet to it.  I peeled the backing paper off and coated it with Ruby Red glitter.  I cut the piece on the diagonal and taped it to the white embossed card.  I cut a thin strip of red card and glued it along the join area.  Using the Love sentiment, I cut it out of red card, then cut the die again out of  two pieces of white card.  I kept the backing piece and the outer part of the white card and used them to glue the red Love into place.  I added it to the top of the card and cut a Wordie saying of You to the moon and back to go under it.  Using the Heart Flourish die, I cut several out of white card and added them to the red glittered part of the card.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6 3/4"  x  8 1/4" in size. All for now, Sue x

Gone Fishing

Hello bloggers!  I started today's card by cutting a piece of white card with the Woodgrain Plank  Background.  Next I cut the Fishing Vest out of green card.  I cut it a second time out of a lighter green card and hand cut thee pockets and glued them to the green fishing vest base.  I cut the Fishing Lures out of a variety of colours and added them to the pockets.  I cut the fishing basket from the Fishing Frame and cut it out of the frame.  I added it to the area below the vest.  I added two more lures to the basket.  I cut the Fishing Rod and fish and glued them across the fishing basket to the vest.  I cut the fishing hat from the Fishing Essentials set in brown and added it with mounting foam next to the vest.  I cut the Gone Fishing sentiment in black and glued in the upper right corner.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6 1/4"  x  7 1/4"  in size.  All for now, Sue x

Congratulations On Your New Home

Hello crafters!  For today's card, I started by cutting the window die out of black gloss card.  I added mounting foam to the back of it, then set it aside and worked on the view through the window.  I cut a piece of white card the same size as the window and added a piece of patterned paper from my stash to cover the card and give it the look of wallpaper.  I used the scalloped border from the Poinsettia Scalloped Border set and cut a piece of blue card with it.  I glued it to the top inside of the window.  I cut the rocking chair, table, floor lamp, chandelier, books and small vase and flowers form the Living Room die set.  I added all of them to the scene and taped them into place.  I added the window over the card and trimmed away any excess card.  I cut a larger piece of white card and embossed it with the Falling Snow embossing folder.  I added the window to the embossed background with mounting foam.  I cut the cute little snowman form the Christmas Scenes set and added him to the lower corner.  I cut the New Home sentiment in black and glued it below the window.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7 1/2"  x  8 1/2"  in size.  All for now, Sue x
