Avery Elle … All of Us

Hey there Avery Elle fans, I’m on the Avery Elle Blog today with a fun card with a masculine touch using the wonderfully cute new ALL OF US stamp set and dies.  I have also used another fabulous new die set from the current release called Arrow Mat which comes with this awesome frame and a small panel to co-ordinate.

 

I started with a grey card base and die cut the Arrow Frame die from white cardstock.  I used foam tape to pop this onto the card front.  I stamped the row of cats image twice and coloured them with Copics then snipped the two rows in half so I could stack them and have them fit onto an A2 portrait card.  So versatile!

 

To finish I stamped and die cut one of the signs and stamped the Happy Birthday sentiment onto it.  I think this set is great for all occasions – masculine and feminine – can’t wait to play with it some more!

Avery Elle Spring 2019 Release Blog Hop

 

Hey there Avery Elle fans!  Welcome to the next stop on the fabulous Spring 2019 Release blog hop.  I hope you are as excited as I am by all the fabulous new products which were all showcased at Creativation in Phoenix a couple of weeks ago.  I am so privileged to attend this great event and the reception this new release got there was pho-nomenal (giggle)!!  What’s so funny you ask?  Well one of the new sets I have designed for this release is based on one of my most favourite cuisines – Vietnamese and namely Pho (pronounced phuh).  We are lucky to have a few restaurants in my city (Liverpool, UK) where I can get my Pho-fix so it didn’t take long for me to be inspired to create a stamp set in it’s honour may I introduce PHONOMENAL!

I’m sharing a few cards using this set and some other amazing new dies that are also being released now.  By changing up the colours you can create masculine or feminine cards for many occasions by using some of the punny sentiments that are included.

 

 

 

 

Just as a tip if you want to slip the different food items into the bowl then just use a scalpel to slice along the edge of the bowl.  Then you can tuck the different images inside.

 

This one features a gorgeous new Ray die – so many uses!  This card was actually one of the Make ‘n Takes at Creativation!

 

And another new amazing die set – Arrow Mat Elle-ments.

Avery Elle … Some Bunny

Hey there, I’m over on the Avery Elle Blog today with a cute little card using the gorgeous Some Bunny stamp set.

To start I used a pink card base and die cut a panel using Wonky Stitches and the large frame from Wonky Circle Frames.  I laid the elements out so I would know where I wanted to blend my ink and then used a blending brush to add some soft colour (Magenta and Orchid pigment ink) to the centre of where I planned to put my Wonky Circle Frame die cut.

I stamped the bunny and balloon in Fog dye ink and then blended Sea Glass ink into the balloon and added a tiny bit of grey to the bunny using  Copic markers (C0 and C2 and R81).  I used a heart from the Some Bunny dies and adhered it onto the balloon then assembled my card using foam tape for the bunny and balloon.

To give the card a little more texture I used Unicorn White paint from Hero Arts and splattered it over the card front.  I added some Diamond Glaze to the heart and finished it all off with a cute little pom pom on the bunny’s tail!!
