Avery Elle … Three Hearts Die

13.11.2018 by 2 Comments

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

Sorbet Collection Paper Pack

Fog Dye Ink

Avery Elle Winter 2018 Release Blog Hop

08.11.2018 by 25 Comments

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.

Get Cracking On Christmas October 2018

18.10.2018 by 7 Comments

 

 

Hey there, finally getting a chance to play along with this month’s Get Cracking On Christmas Challenge.  In case you’re new to the idea, it was dreamed up by my crafty pals Jenn Shurkus, Chari Moss and Cheiron Brandon as a way to save the last minute rush of making Christmas cards.  Throughout the year we’ve been sharing a Christmas card idea every third Thursday of the month and this time I’ve gathered some scrummy supplies and made not one but 2 cards!

 

Both start with a red card base onto which I stamped the Plaid Background Stamp from Concord and 9th in black ink.  I love Buffalo plaid so this is one of my favourite combos and I’ve used it before HERE.  On the first card I die cut some foliage pieces using the Tim Holtz Holiday Greens dies and the took the sentiment dies from the Season of Cheer collection from Concord and 9th.which I die cut from wood-effect paper from Seven Hills Crafts.  I bundled the die cuts together and added them to the card with a glue dot and finished it off with rustic twine bow and a touch of Distress Stickles here and there.

 

The second card uses some dies from Avery Elle and Newtons Nook.  I used Wonky Frames in both the Square and Circle designs and created my frames.  I backed the square frame with glitter paper and adhered it to the card base.  The bow was created using the new Wonky 3D Bow dies from Avery Elle and the stag head is from Splendid Stags by Newtons Nook.  I heat embossed the sentiment from Quirky Christmas from Avery Elle in white to finish.

Thanks for stopping by.
