Sending Hugs


Happy New Year everyone! I'm here with a card using Poppystamps products. This card could be used for Valentine's Day or just to send someone a paper hug.


I cut strips of scrap card stock to create a colourful background for the Grid Heart Frame and really like how it turned out!

Joy Shaker



Hello everyone! Today I have an easy shaker card using Poppystamps Double Joy Dies.

This is a two die set where one die cuts out the solid image and the second die cuts the outline image. So versatile!


I made a fun shaker section out of the middle Joy using seed beads and polymer clay candy.

For more info on how I made the card please stop by the Poppystamps blog here.

Wintry Shaker


Hi everyone! I have a wintry snowflake edge-to-edge shaker card today using products from Scrap en Masse!

I started by creating my background using Brusho Crystals on watercolour paper. I chose a few colours in blues and purples.


The snowflake dies are from Art Impressions Large Snowflakes and die cut them using DCWV Holographic Mat Stack. Love the different patterns and pretty colours that come in this pad.


I adhered the snowflakes onto my background and used some card packaging to create the shaker. I added adhesive to the back of the panel and folded over the edges of the packaging. I left one end open so I could add the shaker elements and adhered the last edge.

I finished off with a glittery sentiment. So much pretty sparkle and shine happening here!

Sparkly Poinsettia

 


Hello crafters! Sue here with an easy Christmas card. I used the Paper Rose Poinsettia Stencil with a variety of Distress Inks and let it dry.

After cleaning off the stencil I applied glitter paste over the inked design and let it dry and you end up with this gorgeous sparkly, raised image. Very festive! 



The sentiment was heat embossed with gold embossing powder and I added black gems to the flower centre. This technique makes for a nice flat card to put through the mail.

Leafy Swirl


Hi everyone! I made a shaker card using Marianne Design Tiny's Swirl & Leaves Dies. I die cut the swirl from my cardstock and used that as my shaker element with some seed beads.


I added a bit of Distress Ink around the swirl and flicked on some gold and red paint. The sentiment is Photoplay Speech Bubble Sentiments.


For the leaves I took watercolour cardstock and randomly applies different shades of red, orange and yellow and die cut the leaves from it. These leaves not only die cut but also emboss some raised areas onto the die cut.


Thanks for stopping by!
