Oops, popping a day late with this week’s Avery Elle DT post! My card today features the fab new set Simply Said: Crazy. The die has a mat layer too – love it. I paired it with the new Beary Sweet set too. Gosh, it’s strange to be making a non-Christmas card – feels like all I’ve done for weeks!!
Thanks for stopping by today xxx
Hello there on this frosty November afternoon! Today I have a card created with the ingeniously clever Pop Up Wreath die from Avery Elle. I ran the die through my Big Shot with a white panel cut to A2 size and mounted it onto a Sea Glass card base (from the Caribbean Collection note card pack). I found a jar of Glitter Ritz fine glitter in a shade called Duck Egg which perfectly matched the Sea Glass colour so I took a piece of Stick It adhesive and put one side onto a sheet of thick copy paper (I didn’t use cardstock as I wanted it to be light). I then used the bow dies and removed the top sheet from the paper giving me my sticky pieces ready to cover in the glitter. I then used some Glossy Accents to add spots all over the wreath and added the glitter to them too. Once dry I assembled the card and popped up the branches of the wreath – wish you could see the glitter properly – it’s SUPER-SPARKLY!!

Hey there peeps! I’ve been playing with a great stamp set from Avery Elle called Penguin Greetings! It features a cute little penguin family all decked out in their winter gear – I love it! I started with a piece of watercolour card and sponged some cracked pistachio distress ink onto the centre area. I also splattered some of the same colour onto the panel and then ran it through my Bigshot with the Wonky Stitches Elle-ments (can’t get enough of this die – may favourite right now)! I kept the colouring of the penguins quite simple using Distress inks and then die cut the sentiment using another new set from Avery Elle called Holly Jolly Elle-Ments.
