Avery Elle … Simple Sentiments

Hey, I’m on the Avery Elle Blog today with a card showing a way to use the Simple Sentiments stamp set.  I decided to use the “Thank You” related sentiments in the set together to create a tone on tone background for a subtle way to include a sentiment without the need for a strip or open space.

I started with a bright green piece of card and stamped the sentiments in Celery pigment ink to cover the panel.  I then used a piece of Celery striped paper from the Jewel Paper Pad and adhered it to the lower section and then die cut it using Double Pierced Rectangles to create the mat.  I added some silver sparkle washi tape along the join.

I used the Wonky Scalloped Circle Frame for more interest in the background and then stamped and coloured (using Zig Clean Colour Markers) the Floral Bouquet image before die cutting and adding to the card front.  To finish I added some glitter to the flower centres.

Supplies:

Simple Sentiments Stamp Set

Floral Bouquet Stamp Set

Floral Bouquet Elle-ments

Wonky Circle Frame

Celery Pigment Ink

Avery Elle … Three Hearts Die

Hey there,  I’m over on the Avery Elle Blog today sharing a clean and simple card featuring the gorgeous new Three Hearts Die.  This die, like the previously released Three Stars die has so many uses and not just for Valentines day either.  I selected three of the striped papers from the Sorbet Collection paper pack and used a great sentiment (LOVE the font) from the new Some Bunny stamp set.

I die cut a white panel using the three hearts die and adhered the different patterned papers behind each aperture ensuring the stripes are angled in different directions.  I stamped the sentiment in Fog Dye ink and finished off by wrapping some white twine around the panel and popping it using foam tape onto a white card base.

Supplies:

Three Hearts Die

Some Bunny Stamp Set

Avery Elle Winter 2018 Release Blog Hop

Hey there!  I’m so excited to tell you that the Avery Elle Winter 2018 release is now live!  There’s so much fun in this release and there’s something for everyone – hop along for lots of inspiration and all the details on the new products.  You should’ve landed here from the Avery Elle Blog but a full list of hoppers is below if you want to start at the beginning.

For my card I’m sharing a design using the fabulous And Then sentiment set along with a new die called Tons of Hearts.I created a piece of background paper using  Avery Elle Cherry Liquid Watercolour.  I then used the Tons of Hearts die to create a panel and adhered the watercolour piece behind it.  I wrapped some twine around the bottom of the panel and stamped the “I Choose You Sentiment” from And Then in Magenta Pigment ink in the centre of the panel.  To finish I added a small blob of glossy accents to the tiny heart in the centre of the “O”

The next stop on the hop is the fabulous Heather Campbell.
