Noel

 

Hi Crafty Friends,

Today I am sharing a Nativity themed card I have created using stamps from Daisy Mae Designs.

For my card base I created a Stepper Card using Creative Craft Products 4 Stepper Card die set from their Step On Up Collection. 

I used Daisy Mae Design's  No Room At This Inn stamp set to added the Nativity images to the card.

The "NOEL" is die cut using Lawn Fawn's Oliver's Stitched ABC's die set.

I added a glittered star above the manger image.

For the front of the card, I added Daisy Mae Design's While Shepherds Watched stamp set.

I added a white panel on the back of my card, as a place to add a sentiment and write a personal sentiment. The sentiment is from Divinity Designs.

Baby Stepper Card

 

Hi Crafty Friends,

Today I am sharing a baby card I have created using stamps and dies from Made To Surprise by Sam Calcott and Creative Craft Products.

I recently purchased Creative Craft Products 4 Stepper Card die set from their Step On Up Collection when Craft Stash had a sale offering 40% off some of the Creative Craft Products dies. While my die was on it's way I noticed a thread on a Facebook Group commenting on how the die cut card doesn't fold perfectly flat ... one of the steps peeks out of the back when the card is folded flat. So when my die arrived a few days later, I pulled it out and die cut it in white cardstock to see what the issue was. Yes there is an issue if you want to use the die without adding it to a card base. But I cut out the card base to see what size I would need and temporary adhered the two together and the issue was solved. I actually like it in the folded card, as it gives more room to decorate and a place at the back to write a personal greeting.

Seeing I had both pieces cut out I decided to use the base and pulled out some baby stamps/dies to decorate it. I used Sam Calcott's Baby Additions Stamp set and Pop-up Baby Additions die set from her recent Pop-up Wiper Book Collection. I used Lawn Fawn's Oliver's ABC's die set to add the word "BABY" down the step. Sam does have dies to do this in a more recent stamp/die set, but mine hasn't arrived as yet. 

The "Welcome To The World" sentiment is from a New Baby Stamp/Die/Stencil Set also from Creative Craft Products.

For the front of my card, I added more of the die cut pieces from the Pop-up Baby Additions die set. I also added two banners using a die included in the New Baby stamp set from Creative Craft Products.

Be-Leaf In You

 

Hi Crafty Friends,

Today I have another fun stepper card to share with you using one of Creative Craft Products Step On Up dies available from Craft Stash. This one uses the Scalloped Stepper Card die set. I love that it includes all the layers for both the front and back of the card, so that I can add layers to the inside of the card.

I die cut the Scalloped Stepper Card base from dark red cardstock and the layers from holographic and Ombre Glitter Card. I cut the tiniest sliver off the centre scallop, which stopped it from rocking.

To decorate my card I used some of the flowers from Creative Craft Products Floral Nostalgia Ephemera Pack, I love that large red rose.

I stamped the "I be=leaf in you" sentiment from the Floral Nostalgia stamp set onto white cardstock and then cut the word out using scissors, cutting around the outline of the letters.

To finish off the card I added pearls using Pink Fresh Studios Champagne Pearls.

For the inside of the card, I used the other layers included in the die set (the back and front of this card are different). I added another of the stamped sentiments from the stamp set and a flower, which is an off cut from the flower on the front.
