For You

Hello bloggers!  I used the Art Deco Rhapsody embossing folder to emboss a piece of white card.  I extended the pattern by moving it along in the folder and embossing it for a second time.  I cut the Elegant Fanfare out of sherbet card and glued it to the left side of the card.  I cut the Decorative Tag Duo four times out of black card.  I used three of the tags and crisscrossed them to form a sort of circular design and glued them together and added them to the middle of the Elegant Fanfare die.  For the last die, I added a white backing piece to it then added it across the centre of the dies.  I cut the Art Deco For You sentiment out of Sherbet and black card.  I used the black die cut as an offset shadow behind the sherbet die cut then glued it to the tag.  I cut a border using black, white and sherbet card and glued it down the riht side of the card.  I made a flower using the Floral Extravaganza dies and added it to the bottom of the border.  I cut white leaves as accents and added them to the flower.  The card was completed with white and black mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7 3/4"  x  8"  in size.

Beware

Hello crafters!  I started today's card by cutting the Beware sentiment multiple times out of white card.  I covered a piece of white card with a sticky adhesive sheet.  I peeled the backing paper off and laid down all the sentiments randomly around the edges of the card.  I filled in the remaining sticky areas with Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz.  I selcted a pixied piece from my background stash pile.  I created it using Midnight Blue and Candy Pink Pixie Powders, then I covered it with a scrunched up piece of cling film and set it aside to dry.  I cut the Boo To You Frame in both black and white card.  I used the white as a shadow behind the black die cut, then glued it to the middle of the pixied piece.  I cut the skeleton from the Skeleton Frame in both black and white card.  I shadow the white die cut with the black one and glued it to the inside of the frame.  I matted the piece with white and black card then added it to the middle of the Beware background.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7 3/4"  x  7 3/4"  in size.

Thinking Of You

Hello crafters!  I started today's card by cutting the Clipped Corner Rectangles.  I cut a multi-layered frame with a wider white base, then added a thinner red frame on top.  I added mounting foam to the back of the frame then added it to a piece of white card.  Using the Wild Bird die set, I cut two birds, a branch and nest out of tan card.  I added red bellies to the birds with a smoothie and Festive Berries distress ink.  I used Gathered Twigs distress ink around the nest, the tops of the birds and the branch.  I glued the branch then added the nest at the end of it.  I added the birds with mounting foam, one to the branch and the other to the left side of the frame.  I cut the Floral Medley die set with the flowers in red and the stems and leaves in green and added them to the inside of the frame.  I cut the Thinking Of You sentiment in black and glued it below the branch.  I cut two Double Stitched Rectangles in white and seated the frame onto them.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7"  x  8"  in size.

Believe

Good Sunday morning all! I embossed a piece of white card with the Falling Snow embossing folder.  Next, I cut the Snowflake Ribbon Wave die out of Silver Sparkle card.  I backed it with a piece of white card covered with a sticky adhesive sheet.  Once attached, I coated the piece with Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz on all the remaining sticky areas.  I cut the out die from the set in white and glued the Snowflake Wave to it, then attached it to the bottom of the card.  I cut the Snowflake Sparkle die in white and backed it with a piece of white card covered with a sticky adhesive sheet.  I cut the centre die from the set in silver sparkle card, then added the Believe sentiment cut in white.  I cut the outer die from the set in Silver Sparkle card and seated the die cut on top and added it to the top of the card with mounting foam.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6 3/4"  x  8 3/4"  in size.

To Wish You A Merry Christmas

Hello bloggers!  I cut the Stained Glass Rectangles in white in the largest size.  I added it to a piece of white card covered with a sticky adhesive sheet.  I sprinkled Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz on the exposed sticky areas.  I cut two more smaller dies from the set and backed one in red and one in green.  I matted all the layers up, then cut the Candy Cane dies in red and backed them in white.  I added them to the card facing together to form a heart.  I cut the bow from the set out of green card covered with a sticky adhesive piece, then coated it with Hunter Green polished Silk Glitter.  I added the heart below the candy canes.  I added all the layers to a larger piece of white card.  I cut the To Wish You A Merry Christmas in red and glued it to a white shadow backing piece and attached it at the bottom of the card.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7 1/4"  x  9 3/4"  in size.

Happy Halloween

Hello bloggers!  I thought I would share a less scary card that uses the Jack-O-Lantern die set.  I covered a piece of white card with a sticky adhesive sheet.  I peeled the backing paper off and laid down white pumpkins, alternating the shape and style of the pumpkin.  I used Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz on the remaining exposed sticky areas.  Using the Double Stitched Rectangles, I cut a thin white frame.  I added mounting foam to the back edges and attached it to a piece of white card.  I added it to the centre of the card with mounting foam.  I cut the Happy Halloween sentiment out of both orange and black card.  I shadowed the orange sentiment with the black one and glued it to the inside of the frame.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimension are 7"  x  8 1/4"  in size.
