Pawsitively Awesome

Hi Crafty Friends,

It’s challenge time with the “Crazies” over on the Crazy 4 Challenges blog. Rebecca Ednie our challenge hostess for the month, finishes off the month with one last challenge.

Fancy fold cards are totally awesome! This week let’s try a tri-fold card. There are several different types. But they all have at least 2 folds and at least 3 panels.

I was making this card for another day, and then I realised it would fit this challenge ... so as you can see I used it!

This is a Reverse Easel Card, and as you can see it definitely has two folds and three panels.

To decorate my card I used the new MFT Stamps Puppy Love Die-namics for the cute little puppy. The sentiment at the base of the card is from Paper Rose Studio and is a stamp I picked up from a recent Paper Craft Show.

I added some bones to the bottom of the card which is from an older die set.

The sentiment at the top of the card is from Lawn Fawn's Critter Chatter stamp set.

This is the view of the inside of the card. I added a heart with an inset paw print the top right hand corner.

Here is my card when it is closed ready to be placed in an envelope.

I used one of the panels on the back of the card to add a birthday sentiment and paw print.

You Make The World A Better Place!

Hi Crafty Friends,

Today I am sharing another card using some of the new Divinity Designs products from the June Release.

As you can see I have created a Half Shutter Card using Divinity Designs Half Shutter Card with Layers die set.

To decorate my card I used the Globe & Stand die set and added sentiments from the Color My World Stamp set. The sentiments were layered using the Circles and Scallop Circles die sets.

To finish off the card I added some sequins randomly over the card.

This is a look at my card when it is closed ready to be placed in an envelope. It folds flat for mailing.

Keep On Swimming

Hi Crafty Friends,

t's challenge time with my friends over on the CCEE Stampers challenge blog. Lois Bak, our challenge hostess for the month continues to issue the challenges.

Apparently Tuesday (June 25th) was National Catfish Day. Create a card that has some kind of fish or sea life on it 

For my card today I decided to play with Karen Burniston's Triple Flip Card die set which will be available in stores in July.  Here is a quick video to see my card in action.

To decorate my card I used Alcohol Pearl Inks to add color to the water background and the sand. I used a swiping technique to apply the ink, so I was able to use normal cardstock for this.

The Ocean background on the back panel of this card is from Honey Bee Stamps Ocean Borders Clear stamp set. I white embossed this over the alcohol ink background.

The goldfish and seaweed are from Hero Arts Pet Goldfish Clear Stamp set. I used the sentiments from Hero Arts My Monthly Hero March 2019 Card Kit, white embossing them on each panel.

For the inside of my card I added a few more elements left over from the front of the card and then added a sentiment from Lawn Fawn's Keep On Swimming Clear Stamp set.

Lipstick Triple Flip

Hi Crafty  Friends,

I am back today with another sneak peek of the new dies being released in July from Karen Burniston. I have to tell you there are some amazing dies coming out and the one I am sharing today is no exception. 

For my card today I am sharing a card I created using the Triple Flip die set, I think I will be using this a lot in the future. This is actually the second card I made using the set, but my first one is for a challenge in July.

When I was going through my papers recently, looking for papers that would work for some of the samples I was planning on making using Karen's new dies I came across a pad of papers I received as a freebie with a magazine. Flipping through the magazine I discovered a couple of papers that I thought would be perfect with Simon Says Stamps Wake Up and Make Up stamp set which I purchased earlier in the year. So of course I had to make a card.

Here is a quick video so you can see my card in action.

For this card I decided to centralise the three panels  that flip between the panel which holds the mechanism. When you pull the tab on the right hand side of the card, the three panels flip so you can see what is on the reverse side of the card and you also have an area to add a secret message which isn't revealed until you pull the tab.

For the inside of my card I used the Crosshatch Rectangles to add my panels and added a sentiment and more images from the Simon Says Stamp stamp set.

All Aboard

All Aboard Crafty Friends,

It's the time many of you have been waiting for. Today starts the sneak peeks of Karen Burniston's newest release which will be available for sale early in July.

For my card today I used the new Train Pivot Panels die set which is the perfect die set for kids, boys and those men in our lives who love  model trains. My husband is a model train enthusiast, so I know I will get lots of use out of this die set.

To decorate my card I added the train tracks from the Train Elements die set along the bottom of the card. 

I added clouds from the Outdoor Scene to the top of the pivot panel.

The sentiment is from a stamp set from Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps stamped and layered onto an oval from the Crosshatch Ovals die set.

On the right hand side of my card I added the signal also included in the Train Elements die set. I extended the bottom of the signal so it was a little higher up in the card.

For the front of the card, I added another train track, signal and the "All Aboard" sentiment which are all from the Train Elements die set.

Picture Perfect Waterfall Card

Hi Crafty Friends,

My card today is for a challenge I do with a couple of friends of mine. Each month we challenge each other to create something using supplies we all own.

This month our challenge is Waterfall Cards - A few months ago, Karen Burniston shared a way to create a waterfall card using her Frame Pull Pop-up die set. If you have this die set, you can see her video here.  This is now my favorite way to make waterfall cards and I have made a few since Karen shared her video.

If you look closely you may also see a couple of sneak peeks of new die sets being released next month by Karen Burniston. Sneak peeks start on the 24th June, which is today here in Australia but officially still a few hours away up there in the USA.

Here is a quick video to see my card in action.

To decorate my card I used MFT Stamps Picture Perfect stamp set. 

On the left hand side of each banner I added a sentiment from the stamp set and a border using Karen Burniston's Border Blends - Argyle die set.

To finish off the front of my card I added the camera, the "smile" sentiment and the fishtail banner. Hint these three items are from three die sets which Karen will be sharing with you later today.

I like to decorate the back of my card so I have room for another sentiment and a place to write a personal greeting when needed. Here I used a mini photo frame and the smile sentiment again and added a stamped sentiment.

Relax and Unwind a Little

Hi Crafty Friends,

Today I am sharing a Trifold Card I created recently.

My card uses Uniquely Creative's Read Past Your Bedtime stamp set. I used Divinity Designs Tri-Fold Card with Layers die set to create my trifold card.

For the centre panel I added a piece of white cardstock that I had stamped an orange splatter to. I added woodgrain paper to the bottom of the panel, to resemble floor.

I paper pieced the chair using designer paper to give it a fabric look. I colored the girl using colors to match the designer paper on the card.

I stamped, the coffee cup, dinosaur and pile of books which I cute out and attached to my scene.

I added a sentiment and another lot of books which I cut using a circle die.

This is my card when it is folded ready to be placed in an envelope.

Bloom ... With Happiness

It’s challenge time with the “Crazies” over on the Crazy 4 Challenges blog. Rebecca Ednie our challenge hostess for the month, continues to issue the challenges.

This week Rebecca has given us a color challenge using blush, mint, aqua with neutrals of your choice, ivory, gold or tan. This color scheme was inspired by the photo below.

Color challenges aren't my favorite of challenges, especially this one with so many colors. But I have found having dies that create stripes of some sort are good for this type of challenge as you can get all the required colors in the background.

For my card today, I pulled out my Taylored Expressions Diagonal Stripes Cutting Plate. I then used this plate to die cut cardstock in blush, mint, aqua and tan to create my background. 

Once I had my background created I layered this onto a gold colored top folding card.

To decorate my card I used roses from Paper Rose Studio Ella's Garden Scribble Roses which I colored using the blue and mint colors from the challenge.

I added the bloom sentiment from Honey Bee Stamps to the top right hand corner of my card which I die cut in gold and tan cardstock and layered together, offsetting slightly.

To finish off the front of the card I added a few clear acrylic hearts.

For the inside of the card I created another background panel using the Diagonal Stripes Cutting Plate using some of the left over pieces from created the panel on the front. I then cut the panel in half so I had two long skinny panels and added a thin strip of tan cardstock to the cut edge. I then adhered this panels to both the top and bottom edges of the card.

I used the Katherine Label Pop-up die set to add the sentiment to my card ... if you read from the front, the sentiment says ... Bloom With Happiness.

Here is one more photo of the inside of my card so you can see the pop up portion of the card a little better.
