Quilted cards!

Hello, Hello! I'm up on the Scrapbook Pal blog, today. :)  Are any of you a quilter or have you tried quilting before? In all honesty, I'm not a quilter nor have I even tried quilting. But, let me just say, with Spellbinders Orange Peel Quilt embossing folder and Spellbinders Filigree Eight Point Star dies you can be a quilter and with paper! 

At first, I was a little intimidated by the quilting dies and embossing folder. Though, after some playing around and learning how to piece things together, I truly can see why people enjoy quilting. In fact, I enjoyed things so much that I made two cards! 

Let's get to making some quilted cards! 


Card number one.

1. Start with white cardstock and the Orange Peel Quilt Embossing Folder. Then set aside.

2. Use the small Filigree Eight Point Star dies with colored cardstock of your choice. (In this case, I chose a dark/navy blue and bright pink cardstock.) Then piece together the dies, saving the middle pieces and setting aside.

3. Do some simple hot foiling for the sentiment using Spellbinders Spring into Glimmer Collection-Sentiments for Everyday and Gold glimmer hot foil.


4. Add the embossed panel to the card base. Then adhere the quilted star in the middle (with foam squares on the back) and add on the middle pieces around the star. 

5. Lastly, add on the hot foiled sentiment with foam squares on the back.


That's it! Card one, done. So fun, right?

Let's get to card number two! 


1. Start with white cardstock and use the big and small 
Filigree Eight Point Star dies and set things aside.

2. Use gold glitter cardstock (or a cardstock of your choice) and use the Filigree Eight Point Star dies to get the decorative middle part of the star. Set things aside.

3. Take the solid die cut pieces of the Filigree Eight Point Star and use the Orange Peel Quilt Embossing Folder with them.

3. Layer and adhere all the die cut pieces together. Set aside.


4. Hot foiling time! Use 
Gold glimmer hot foil with Spellbinders Spring into Glimmer Collection-Sentiments for Everyday. Set aside.

4. Adhere the star to a square card base, add on the center star with foam squares on the back. Add on hot foiled sentiment with foam squares on the back. 


That's it. Card number two, done! Sweet, right?

I would appreciate it so much if you were to check out my post the Scrapbook Pal blog and maybe even leave some love there, too! :)

Have a great day and see you soon!

Donut Doubt...

Hi y'all! 
Hope all is well?! :)

I'm swinging in to share a card that I have up on the Scrapbook Pal blog, today. If you need a sweet card for someone special, then this is the card for you! Avery Elle's new Banner Celebrations stamp and matching die set is just the sweetest and so fun to play with! 

Without further ado, here is my card...


Let's make this card together! 

1. Take some cardstock/paper that you can color with using markers. Stamp on the images using Lawn Fawn's Jet Black ink. 

2. Color up those images using Copic markers. In this case, I used Copic Sketch colors N0, N2, and N4 and Copic Ciao colors R32, R81, E93, E000, E18, E15, E11, B00, B05, BG10, and 0 (colorless blender). 


3. Use the matching dies and die cut out the colored images. (set aside)

4. Cut a piece of white cardstock slightly smaller than an A2 card. 

5. Place the die cut pieces on the panel and arrange them how you would like. But, don't adhere them to the panel yet! (you just want an idea of where things will be) Next, stamp on the sentiment above the die cut pieces and then using the Copic Ciao marker R81, randomly add some little dots around the images. 


6. Now it's time to adhere the die cut pieces. 

7. Add foam squares on the back of the panel and add it to the card base. That's it. :)

Such a fun and cute card, right?!...


Remember you can find my card on the Scrapbook Pal blog today, as well. I would truly appreciate it if you were to swing by the SP blog...and maybe even leave me some love there! :)

Sending my love

Hi y'all! 

Happy Wednesday, hope all is well! :)

I'm swinging in today to share a card for Amy's Woodblock Wednesday feature.  Without further ado, here is my card...

I sure haven't pulled out DeNami Design woodblocks in a moment. (lol) I forgot how sweet they just are! Do you have any DeNami Design stamps?...If so, I'd love to hear which ones you have! :)

I kept things simple and just did some coloring with Copics and then added a few gems. After, I added on a hot foil sentiment and that's it. Simple, right?!...

Thanks so much for stopping by!
Have a great day and see you soon! 

P.S.

Don't forget you can play along with Amy's Woodblock Wednesday, too! All the info can be found on her blog, HERE. ;)

Season's Greetings

Hi y'all! 

I'm swinging in today, here on my blog, as well as the Scrapbook Pal blog. 

I think by now we all know time flies on by, especially with the holiday season. With that being said, we sometimes can use a quick and easy holiday card. Using Spellbinders Sealed for the Holidays Collections you can easily do so! ;) 

Let's make this card!

1. Start with Spellbinders Sealed for the Holidays Collection-Holly Sprigs, Christmas Tree, and Holiday Squiggles and cardstock colors of your choice. In this case, I used white, gold glitter, and red cardstock. (set things aside when done.)

2. Take a piece of kraft cardstock and add some white splatters to it. To do so, use Lawn Fawns Yeti ink and tap it onto a piece of acetate/clear stamping block,etc. and add a little water to it. Use a paint brush to pick up the ink and splatter it onto the kraft. (Let dry) Then use a bone folder and rub/push it onto the edges of the cardstock, to give it somewhat of a rustic look.

3. Arrange the die cut pieces...however you like! For this card I layered and overlapped things here and there, and even added some foam squares on some pieces. 

4. Make a 'seal'. Using the Spellbinders Faux Wax Seals set makes it so easy! Use the dies with cardstock of your choice. For this card/seal I used pink. Don't put things together yet, though. Tip: layer the outer ring of the seal a few times to make it look more like a true wax seal. 

5. Stamp on the sentiment. Use Spellbinders Dancin' Holiday Sentiments stamp set and the Season's Greetings stamp with Lawn Fawns Jet Black ink. 

6. Now, let's put together the wax seal and add it to the card.

7. To finish things off, add a touch of bling using Spellbinders Spectrum AB gems. 

You made this card, just in time for the holidays! :)

JOY

Hi y'all! 
Happy Sunday, hope all is well?! :)

I'm swinging in today to share a fun card I made for the current Caffeinated Christmas Card Challenge. 


Without further ado, here is my card...


I pulled out some oldies but goodies from Paper Smooches. (Don't you just miss PS?...) Anyhow, I did some super simple coloring with Copic markers and then used an embossing folder for my background. After, simply put things together and lastly I used dies to spell 'JOY' and even added a touch of color to the bottom  of the letters for 'snow'. Fun, right?!...

Well, that's all for me.
Thanks so much for stopping by!
Have a great day and see you soon! :)
