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.

Avery Elle … Lava You

29.01.2018 by Leave a Comment

Hello there!   Here today sharing a card using the punny Lava You stamp set from Avery Elle.   I had so much fun creating this shaker card – I love the lift adding the Glossy Accents gives to the look.

I started with a 4.25″ x 5.5″ card and blended a small area behind where the window will be on the panel using Tumbled Glass Distress Ink.  I then die-cut a panel using the three connected dies from the Wonky Squares set to create a frame.  I made a shaker window with the frame by adhering an acetate panel being the aperture of the frame and adding foam tape all the way around being careful to leave no gaps!  I sprinkled some sequins inside and then carefully placed the window panel over the top.

I stamped and coloured the cute volcano image from the set using Avery Elle dye ink (my favourite ever ink for colouring with Copics) and finished off with some Glossy Accents.  The last thing was to stamp the sentiment below the shaker window and it’s a wrap!!

Supplies used:

Simon says … Use More Than One Die cut/punch with Memory Box

Hi all and welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge

Thank you for joining us for the last week’s challenge and we hope you will all join us again this week too.

This week the challenge is

More Than One Die Cut/Punch 

This week we are showcasing Memory Box.  You don’t have to use them for the challenge but if you have them we would love to see them used.

As always Simon Says Stamp will be giving away $50 voucher to shop at the fabulous Simon Says Stamp Store

So this week I’ve been playing with WOW! heat reactive foil!  I wanted a subtle yet striking background for my Memory Box Stitched Heart Trio die cuts so pulled out an older set from Avery Elle called Brushed – and stamped one of the brush strokes three times in Versamark Ink.  I then used the WOW! Bonding powder and sprinkled it over the stamped images much as you would embossing powder.  When you then heat it it goes tacky and whilst it’s still hot, you add over the foil.  I burnished it a little with a bone folder and then peeled back the foil to reveal the silver design!  For the rest of the card I simply die cut the hearts from cream and Doll Pink card stock and layered them up alternatively.  I added them to my card and finished off with a few spots of Silver Moondust Nuovo drops.  The sentiment, which is also foiled is from one of my favourite go-to die sets from Avery Elle, Sentimental.
