Spellbinders Birthday Daisies

Hello Friends, and welcome back! Spellbinders April releases are live and I’m back again today with another project featuring Yana’s Daisies. I previously posted a project that used just the petals from this project, so you’ll have to check that out. Let’s go ahead and get into the details, shall we?

NOTE: all supplies are linked to multiple sources in the thumbnails at the end of this blog post.

I began this project by die cutting Yana’s Daisies several times from Neenah 110lb cardstock. I knew that I wanted to use just the outline for this project, so I carefully trimmed the leaves off of the daisies. Once I was done with my cutting, I splattered the daisy outlines with black acrylic ink.

My background was created using Gravel cardstock along with the Nestled Postage Labels & Tag set. I did not want to have to cut the daisies again to get black centers, so I just used a black ink pad for that. I began adhering the daisy clusters with liquid glue, filling in all of the spaces and trimming off the excess. The sentiment was silver foiled onto black cardstock and trimmed out several times for a stacked sentiment.

The gray panel was adhered to a black panel, the sentiment was adhered using foam strips, the centers were added in place and clear drops were added to finish up.

That does it for this project! I hope you enjoyed it, and I hope it inspires you to get crafty in your space! Don’t forget to check out all of the April releases over the Spellbinders webpage. Thanks again for stopping by, and I hope you have a fabulous day!

Simon Says Stamp Nifty Birthday Stars

Welcome back, Friends! Thanks so much for joining me for today’s project featuring the new Nifty Star Plate! I had a lot of fun with this plate! In a previous post, I used just the stars in a rainbow fashion, and today I’m doing an inlay. Let’s go ahead and go through the details.

NOTE: all supplies are linked in the thumbnails at the end of this blog post.

I began this project by die cutting the Nifty Star Plate once from Neenah 110lb cardstock, once from Honey and once from Rainforest cardstock. I poked out the white stars from that panel and adhered it to my card base using liquid glue, and I then began inlaying the colored stars.

The sentiment, which is from the Clean Line Stacks set, was stamped onto more Rainforest cardstock with VersaMark ink and heat set using Detail White Embossing Powder. I used the coordinating die to trim that out, along with two additional cuts and adhered all of those together. The sentiment was added to the card using foam strips for added dimension. To finish up, I added some clear drops to the centers of the starts for shine.

That does it for this one! Thanks again for joining me! I hope you have a wonderful day, and don’t forget to stay awesome!

Simon Says Stamp Bundled Birthday Swag

Hello Friends and thanks for joining me! Today’s project is featuring the new Bundled Swag Embossing Folder from Simon’s latest release, Favorite Things. This is a super simple project, so let’s run through the deets!

NOTE: all supplies are linked in the thumbnails at the end of this blog post.

I began this project by running a panel of Neenah 110lb cardstock through the machine with the folder, and then doing some ink blending using Seafoam, Surf and Ocean inks.

The Birthday Wishes sentiment was cut once from Matte Silver Cardstock and twice from Neenah, the shadow portion was cut twice and all of those pieces were adhered together for that stacked sentiment look.

The embossed panel was added to the card base using foam tape, and the sentiment was glued directly to the panel. I added Surf Dazzling Gems to finish up.

A super simple project for today! That’s the awesome thing about embossing folders .. You can create beautiful projects quickly! Thanks again for joining me, and I hope you have a fabulous day!

Simon Says Stamp Birthday Books

Hello Crafty Friends, and welcome back to my blog! I’m back today with a project featuring the new One for the Books set from Simon’s latest release, Favorite Things. Let’s go ahead and run through the details!

NOTE: all supplies are linked in the thumbnails at the end of this blog post.

I began this project by stamping the book using Bubblegum, Gravel and Sage inks. This is a layering stamp set, so I moved onto the black areas and used VersaFine Onyx Black ink for that and heat set it using Ranger Clear Embossing Powder. For the “pages” of the books, I used Misty Coast ink from PinkFresh Studio.

Once the stamping of the book was complete, I adhered them to fun foam and trimmed them down to size. I also added a small pink heart and Bubblegum Dazzling Gems to the top book. The background was created using the Friendship Text Background stamp with that same Misty Coast ink. That was then trimmed down using the Postage Stamp Edge Frames. Before adhering to the card base, I added some black splatter and then adhered the books atop that. Because the books had already been adhered to fun foam, there was no need for additional foam tape.

That finishes up this project! I hope you enjoyed it! Head on over to Simon’s website to check out the entire Favorite Things release and let me know your favorites. Thanks for joining me, and I hope you have a fabulous day!

Spellbinders Birthday Mountain Daisy

Hello Crafty Friends and welcome back! I’m back today with a project featuring the new Lavender Mountain Daisy from Spellbinders and Susan Tierney Cockburn! You guys know that I love florals, so I was thrilled to be able to work with some of Susan’s latest floral die cuts! Let’s go ahead and get into the details!

NOTE: all supplies are linked to multiple sources in the thumbnails at the end of this blog post.

I began this project by die cutting a few of the daisies and centers from Purple Mist and Saffron cardstock. I did some ink blending on the flowers using PFS Hydrangea ink, and I used Copic marker YR04 on the centers. I used the Sizzix Shaping Kit to shape the center pieces and then I went ahead and assembled the flowers.

Now as you all know, I always need greenery so I die cut a few leaves from the Vivid Blooms set from Green Apple cardstock and did some ink blending on those as well using Artichoke ink. For my background, I used the Fresh Picked Labels and Tag to create a focal point. The center portion that was cut out to create the frame was then run through the machine using the Argyle Plaid 3D Embossing Folder to add a bit of texture.

The sentiment, which is from the Simply Perfect Mix & Match Sentiments, was die cut once from gold cardstock and twice from Neenah 110lb cardstock for a stacked sentiment. I was unable to locate this set on the Spellbinders website, so I’m assuming that it must have been discontinued. But, if you’re wanting to recreate this project, just use what’s in your stash! Before assembling, I did splatter both the panel and the card base with gold acrylic ink. The textured panel was adhered to the card base using liquid glue, as well as the flowers, leaves and sentiment. To finish up, I added a few Gold Metallic Pearls.

That does it for this card! I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did! Don’t forget to check out all of the February releases from Spellbinders! Thanks again for joining me, and have a wonderful day!

Spellbinders Daisy Birthday Wishes

Hello Friends and welcome back! I’m so glad you decided to join me for today’s project featuring the new Painted Daisy & Ladybugs from Spellbinders and Susan Tierney Cockburn. This daisy is so gorgeous and I had so much fun making it, and am so happy with this project! Let’s go ahead and go through the deets, shall we?

NOTE: all supplies are linked to multiple sources in the thumbnails at the end of this blog post.

I began this project by die cutting the daisy pieces from Saffron and Black cardstock, while die cutting the leaves from Fern cardstock. I did some ink blending on the flower portions using Clay ink and Kale ink for the leaves. Before assembling the flower, I used the Sizzix Shaping Kit to soften the petals some. I did also die cut some other leaves from the Vivid Blooms set as well.

Once the ink blending was complete, I assembled the flower using liquid glue. The center portion of the flower did take some time, but I absolutely love the texture! The sentiment that was used is from the Making Me Smile Sentiments Hot Foil set and that was gold foiled onto black cardstock. I used the included die cut to trim it out along with two additional cuts for a stacked sentiment.

The background was created using the Nestled Postage Labels and Tag set and that was gold splattered before adhering it to the card base with foam tape. The leaves were adhered first, and then the flower. I glued the tiny sentiment right in the middle of the flower and added some Gold Metallic Pearls to one of the leaves to finish up.

A simple design for today’s card, but I love the way it turned out! I hope you enjoyed it as well. I’m always so happy working with florals! Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you have an absolutely wonderful day!

Spellbinders Birthday Wishes

Hello Crafty Friends, and welcome back! The January releases from Spellbinders are live, and I’m back today with a project featuring the new Ganache Gateau, Birthday Cheers and the Vivid Blooms! Don’t you love it when the vision in your mind translates well to an actual project?! Let’s go through the details for this one, shall we?

NOTE: all supplies are linked to multiple sources in the thumbnails at the end of this blog post.

I began this project by cutting the base layer of the cake using Cotton Candy cardstock, while cutting the frosting pieces from Neenah 110lb cardstock. There was quite a bit of floral cutting for this project and the cardstock colors that I used were Gold, Waterfall, Saffron, Peacock and Green Apple. Those will all be listed in the thumbnails below.

Once all of the floral die cutting was complete, I did some ink blending on the flowers using Bubblegum, Surf and Cabbage inks. The floral pieces were then assembled using liquid glue. Before adding anything to the cake, I did splatter it with gold acrylic ink for some added interest. I began the assembly with the leaves and flowers at the bottom of the cake, and then added the bottom icing piece.

I wanted to figure out the sentiment before adding the top pieces to the cake, so I die cut the support sticks five times from Neenah 110lb cardstock, and I die cut the ‘birthday wishes’ once from gold cardstock and four times from Neenah. All of those pieces were adhered together so that it would be sturdy.

I adhered the top icing pieces, the support sticks and then the flowers around those. Adding the flowers over the support sticks hid the bottom portion of those, which I wanted. My next step was to secure the sentiment in place. I wanted the card to be the shape of the cake, so I cut another piece of pink cardstock and scored it at 1/4″ and applied some Scor Tape to secure those together.

That does it for this project! I hope you enjoyed it! In all honesty, this is my very first shaped card, and I kind of like it, so I’ll probably try it again at some point. Thanks for stopping by to hang out with me for a bit, and I hope you have an amazing day!

Simon Says Stamp Positive Birthday Wishes

Hello Friends, and welcome back to my blog! Thanks so much for stopping by to check out today’s project featuring the new Positivity Stencil from Simon’s latest release, Sweet Wishes. Let’s go ahead and get right into the details!

NOTE: all supplies are linked in the thumbnails at the end of this blog post.

This was a simple card to pull together, but I love the how it came out! I began by taping the stencil to a panel of Neenah 110lb cardstock and did some ink blending using Sprout, Surf and Cadette inks. Once the ink blending was complete, I trimmed the panel down using the SSS Postage Stamp Edge Frames.

At this point, the panel was missing something, so I decided to use a Copic Multiliner and draw lines within the white spaces. I wasn’t being careful or perfect with my lines, as I’m sure you can tell, but I felt like this simple addition of black made all the difference.

I stamped the sentiment, which is from the Clean Line Stacks set, onto a panel of black cardstock using VersaMark Ink, and heat set that using Detail White Embossing Powder. I used the coordinating die to trim it out, along with two additional cuts and adhered all of those together using liquid glue. The sentiment was then glued to the panel, and everything was then adhered to the card base to finish up.

That does it for this one! Like I said, a super, simple card, but I love the finished project! Don’t forget to check out the entire Sweet Wishes release, and let me know your favorites! Thanks again for joining me, and I hope you have a fabulous day!

Simon Says Stamp Birthday Blooms

Hello Friends and thanks for joining me! I’m back today with a project featuring the new Fresh Blooms Embossing Folder from Simon’s latest release, Cheering For You, along with the new You die cut. Let’s jump right into the details!

NOTE: all supplies are linked to multiple sources in the thumbnails at the end of this blog post.

I began this project by ink blending a panel of Neenah 110lb cardstock using SSS Pawsitively Saturated Inks in Bubblegum, Sunbeam, Seafoam and Lilac. Once the ink blending was complete, I put the panel in the folder and ran it through the machine.

For the sentiment, I used the new SSS You die cut and cut that once from black glossy cardstock and twice from regular black cardstock and adhered all the layers together using liquid glue. I stamped the happy birthday portion, which is from the new SSS You stamp set, onto a scrap of black cardstock using VersaMark Ink and heat set that using SSS Detail White Embossing Powder. The You portion was glued to the panel, while the birthday portion was adhered with SSS 3D Foam Strips.

The panel was then adhered to a black splattered card base with foam tape, for added dimension, to finish up.

That does it for this one! I hope you enjoyed it, and I hope you found some inspiration from today’s post! Don’t forget to head over to Simon’s website to check out the entire Cheering For You release. Thanks again for joining me, and have yourself a wonderful day!

Simon Says Stamp Foiled Starry Sky

Hello Crafters and welcome back! Thank you so much for stopping by to check out today’s project featuring the new Starry Sky Foil Transfer Cards from Simon’s latest release, Cheering for You. Let’s jump right into the details!

NOTE: all supplies are linked to multiple sources in the thumbnails at the end of this blog post.

I never seem to have enough birthday cards, so I knew I wanted to make this card into a birthday card. I began by foiling the SSS Starry Sky Transfer Card using Thermoweb Lapis Watercolor Foil and my Minc Mini. Once the foiling was complete, I used the SSS Postage Stamp Edge Frames to trim it down.

I used the SSS Basic Box Card Happy Birthday sentiment and cut that once from silver cardstock and twice from black cardstock. I also cut the shadow portion twice and adhered all of the pieces together using liquid glue.

The panel was adhered to the card base using foam tape and the sentiment was glued directly to the panel to finish up.

A super simple card for today, but this Lapis foil is really beautiful and has an interesting feel to it. I hope you enjoyed this project, and I hope it inspires you to get crafty in your space. Thanks again for stopping by, and don’t forget to check out the entire Cheering for You release over on Simon’s website! Have yourself a wonderful day!
