A Very Happy Birthday

Hi Crafty Friends,

Today I am sharing a fun shaped card using products from Spellbinders.

For the shaped card base, I used the January Small Die of the Month. Rather than adding the flowers included in the set, I decided to add the owl, which is from The Classic Pooh Collection.

The sentiment is a Betterpress sentiment set.

For the inside of the card I added another sentiment.

 

Bouncing By To Say

  

Hi Crafty Friends,

Today I am sharing a Slimline card I created using the Spellbinders Classic Pooh Collection. 

This was a pretty quick card to make as I already had all the Pooh characters made and when I found this slimline patterned paper it was super easy. The “bouncing” sentiment is from an older Kindred Stamps stamp set.

For the inside of my card, I took the matching patterned paper I used on the front of my card. I trimmed around the grass area and added this to the bottom of my card. I then added the balloon to the left side of the card, so that it was on both sides of the card. Finally I added a sentiment using Spellbinders Nature's Dance stamp set.

Time For A Little Something

Hi Crafty friends,

Thanks for stopping by my blog! Today I am sharing a Mini Slimline card featuring more from Spellbinders Classic Pooh Collection.

I used Spellbinders Pooh and Friends Silhouette die for the main image of my card. I die cut it twice from black cardstock layering it for strength and adhered it with foam tape to a rectangle panel of slimline pattern paper I found in my stash of Whimsy Stamps Slimline paper pads. 

To create the Mini Slimline card, I pulled out my Divinity Designs Mini Slimline Card dies ... the Mini Slimline Card Base Die; Mini Slimline Rectangle Dies and Mini Slimline Layering Rectangles Die sets. These take all the hard work of measuring and cutting the various layers and card base.

To finish off the front of the card, I added the sentiment which is from the Spellbinders Silly Old Bear Sentiments Betterpress Plate set.

For the inside of my card, I used the Mini Slimline dies to create my layers. I also die cut the Silhouette image again. from black cardstock and cut off Pooh, Piglet and Tigger and added them to the lower left hand corner of my card.

I added a sentiment to the panel which is from Made To Surprise by Sam Calcott's Feeling Happy Stamp Set.

 

 

Silly Old Bear

 

Hi Crafty Friends,

Today I am sharing another "Pooh" themed card I created using the Classic Pooh Collection from. Spellbinders.

I used Made to Surprise by Sam Calcott’s 5 x 7 Cracker Tower die set to create my card base.

This time round, I added Pooh to a large honey pot. I added Glossy Accents to the honey areas to give them more of a honey look.

Here is a look at the back of the card. I added a few more die cut elements from the Classic Pooh die sets. The birthday sent is from Made To Surprise’s Moving Along Sentiment stamp set. 

An Adventure Was Going to Happen

Hi Crafty Friends,

Thanks for stopping by my blog, today I am sharing a Pooh themed Slimline Easel Card I created recently.

For my card, I used the dies from the new Spellbinders Classic Pooh Collection.I saw these were going to be released in January when I was checking out the "Coming Soon" section on the Spellbinders website before Christmas  and have been impatiently waiting all year (yeah ok a month) for them to make it downunder.

My Slimline Easel Card measures 8 1/2 inches x 4 inches. I wanted the extra height so I could include all the characters from the various sets.

To create the card base, I used Lawn Fawns Lawn Fawn's Grassy Hillside Borders die set to add all the grassy areas on both the front and inside of the card.

I also wanted Pooh to be sitting against a tree, so I pulled out a tree die from Hello Bluebird to use for that. 

All the other die cut elements used to create this scene are included in the three "Pooh" themed die sets from Spellbinders. I spent a day assembling a heap of characters and so far have been able to make two cards from what I created and have enough left over for at least 2 or 3 more cards, which I will share as I make them.

And finally a look at the bottom panel when it is opened up. I added the honey pots and flowers to each side of the card and then a sentiment for a stopper, which will hold the front of the card up. The sentiment is from the Silly Old Bear Betterpress Plate set.
