Avery Elle … Seasonal Simple Sentiments

11.09.2019 by 4 Comments
Hey there, on the Avery Elle Blog today bringing you a card featuring Seasonal Simple Sentiments and some of the other fabulous new products from the Fall 2019 Fall release.  This card was quite quick to put together thanks to the Holiday Ephemera pack – I just LOVE it!
I started with a white A2 card base and adhered one of the frames from the ephemera pack using Avery Elle liquid glue.  I then added one of the snow globe images from the pack using foam tape.
As a focal image I stamped, coloured and die cut the skate from Holiday Skates twice along with the addition of a bow from Alpine Christmas.
To finish I chose the Let It Snow sentiment from Seasonal Simple Sentiments stamped onto one of the co-ordinating dies from the matching Elle-ments and added a snowflake from the ephemera pack.
Supplies:
Seasonal Simple Sentiments Clear Stamps
Simple Sentiments Elle-ments
Holiday Skates Clear Stamps
Holiday Skates Elle-ments
Alpine Christmas Clear Stamps

Avery Elle … Holiday Skates

02.09.2019 by Leave a Comment
Happy Monday everyone and hello to Holiday Skates Week over on the Avery Elle Blog.  I’m very excited to share a card I’ve created using this set.  When I designed this set I pictured in my head all the gorgeous, festive holiday decor you see on Pinterest of old vintage boots and skis adorned with festive foliage hanging in hallways or on doors.  And this card is just what I pictured with the set!  I’ve also created a short video too showing how this card came together (see below)!
The Holiday Ephemera pack came in very useful with the border and the perfect sentiment banner!
I used the small snow flurry stamp with Mint To Be ink to create a “halo” effect for my background behind my main focal image.
Once I’d stamped, coloured and die cut all my pieces I arranged them how I wanted and assembled them using foam tape and Avery Elle Liquid Glue.

 

To finish I picked one of the sentiments from the Holiday Ephemera pack and then added Glossy Accents to the blades of the skates and the candy canes and berries for some added bling!

Avery Elle Fall 2019 Release Blog Hop

Hey there!  Today is one of my favourites days of the year – the launch of the Avery Elle Fall release!  I love all things Fall and Christmas so look forward to the new sets every year.  This year is one of the best yet and I’m excited to share one of the sets I designed – Alpine Christmas.  I actually drew this set (and the other one, Holiday Skates) back in January on a ski trip in Andorra!  I saw old vintage sleds and skis decorating many of the shops and restaurants in the town and so was totally inspired!

I drew the sled and kept the woodgrain pattern as an option so you could colour it solidly or give it the aged wooden appearance – I find stamping the sled first and then lining up the woodgrain pattern over it is the best way to do it.  For both these cards I stamped the sled and wood pattern then added colour using Copics.  On all three of my cards I’ve used some of the new papers from the brand new Holiday Paper Pad – I’m in LOVE with it.  The sentiment on this first one is from the new Ephemera pack too – swoon!

 

 

My last card features the vintage wooden skis and I used some of the sentiments from the new Seasonal Sentiments set – so incredibly useful to have in your collection!!
