2nd Birthday Card

 


I have made this card using Stamperia paper and image. I covered my 8x8in white card with pink card and then patterned card. I distressed and inked the edges of the layers. I die cut a scalloped circle using a Xcut die and mounted the image. I printed a personalised sentiment and die cut it with a Sizzix heart die and added it to a larger pink heart before attaching it to my card. I then added the image. I inked all the edges of these elements. I completed my card with Tonic Nuvo drops.

Camera

 









I have made this camera as a gift. I followed a tutorial on You Tube which was very easy to follow. I used Tonic concertina dies for the inside. The other elements are basic boxes made using my scoreboard. I used circle dies to make the lens. The metal elements are from The Works. I made the flowers using a Cheery Lynn die. I completed the camera with flat backed pearls, lace and satin ribbon.

18th Birthday Card

 


I have matt and layered my 8x8in white card with pink card and then white embossed card. I embossed the white card with a Crafts Too embossing folder.

I added the 18 key along with floral embellishments and completed the card with Tonic Nuvo drops

Rose Easel Card

 


I have used the a Crafters Companion die to make this card. I die cut the rose in element in black and then die cut it in pink and green to enable me to paper piece with those elements.

I matt and layered the top and base with pink card and then black glitter card.

Poinsettia Christmas Card




I have used a set of Tattered Lace dies to cut the "book" layers in white and red card. On the front I have used the die to cut a page from a Hunkydory liitle book. I curled all the layers around my rolling pin.

I added the book to the front using red liner tape in the centre and foam pads down the sides and then added the bookmark.  I die cut the sentiment with a Sue Wilson die and attached it to the die cut shapes which I cut with Spellbinders dies before attaching it to my card. I die cut the flourishes with a Cheery Lynn die and the poinsettia with Tattered Lace dies. I completed my card with satin ribbon and tonic nuvo drops. 

I made the box using a scoreboard. I attached red satin ribbon around the outside of the lid and added a bow.  I added the scalloped circles to the box lid, these were cut with Xcut dies from a nesting set. I die cut the sentiment with a Sue Wilson die. I completed the box with a poinsettia and tonic nuvo drops.

Quick Baby Card

 


I have been asked to make a quick baby card. I wasn't given any information for the new arrival so this is what I made.

This is an A4 card  which has been matt and layered with lilac and white card. I added lace and satin ribbon down the card along with a bow. I die cut the scalloped ovals with Go Kreate dies from a nesting set. I added the sentiment to the ovals that I cut with a Tonic die. The vest and bib have been cut with Sue Wilson dies. I completed my card with Tonic Nuvo drops on the oval and also on the vest where "poppers" would be.

Advent Calendar

 


This is my DT project for the challenge at craftyhazelnutspatternedpaper

I have started making advent calendars for my nieces. I have so much spare time at the moment I wanted to make something other than a card.

I have used a Crafters Companion double sided die to cut the small triangles. I covered the front of the boxes with patterned paper. I punched a hole in the top of the box and added a loop of ribbon through the hole. I added hot glue on the knot inside the box to secure the ribbon. The small numbers have been cut with Crafters Companion dies. I assembled the boxes together with high tack tape and glue. I attached white card and satin ribbon on the sides of the assembled boxes and then attached it to two sheets of 300gsm card and cut around it. I attached a 12x12in sheet of patterned paper to 300gsm card before attaching my calendar to it. I will personalise the creation in due course. 

There is a video on You Tube by a Crafters Companion member to help with this project. 

I would like to enter this creation into the following challenges:

Wedding Anniversary Card

 


This is my Guest Designer post for the challenge at paperfundaychallenges

An anniversary card for my best friend and her husband.

I have matt and layered my 8x8in white card with pink mirror card. I then added a satin finish card on the  bottom and embossed white card on the top. I used a Xcut embossing folder. I attached lace and ribbon across the centre of my card followed by an image from a Hunkydory book. The printed sentiment has been cut with a Go Kreate die from a nesting set and then attached to my card. I completed my card with Tonic Nuvo drops. 

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:
