Sending Sparkle Tag


Do you make gift tags for your gifts? It's a fun way to add a special touch to those pretty packages.

I used dies from the Dancin' Christmas Collection from Spellbinders
The Dancin' Penguin was used for my tag, he's just the cutest!


The sentiment is from the Bibi's Snowflakes Collection and I used the Snowflake Wishes Clear Stamp and Die Set to make the pretty sentiment.


The background of the tag is decorative paper.
Adhesives from Scrapbook Adhesives were used to stick things down and to pop them up.

Have a crafty day!

Gingerbread Girl Card


I like to have a few generic cards on hand in case something pops up. I've made several of these cute gingerbread girl cards that I can add any sentiment inside. Here are the dies that I used-

Monoline Stars Embossing Folder- https://shrsl.com/48sv9


Popular Sentiments Etched Dies- https://shrsl.com/48p3i

The Dancin' Gingerbread Etched Dies also come with other cute dies to make a gingerbread man.
To make the background, red ink was rubbed on one side of the embossing folder (the side where the pattern is raised), white cardstock was placed inside and run through the embossing machine.

Welcome Autumn


Today I have an Autumn card with pretty leaves that look like they have been created with inks, but nope, they were stamped on decorative watercolor looking paper. Read on to see how my card was made.

Die-cut white cardstock using the Quilted Pierced Stitched Cover.
Glue a strip of black and white diagonal striped decorative paper on the left side.  Glue this to a black card.
Place thin black glitter washi tape on each side of the decorative strip.



Stamp leaves from the Splatter Leaves stamp set with Onyx Black VersaFine Ink on decorative paper and emboss with clear embossing powder.
Die-cut the leaves using the Splatter Leaves Die Cut.


Glue the 1st and 3rd leaves to the card and pop up the 2nd and 4th leaves.


Stamp the sentiment with black ink and emboss with clear embossing powder. 
Die-cut the sentiment using a die from the Small Tags Die set.

Have A Ball Birthday Card


Today I have this card up on the Scrapbook Adhesives Blog and it's made with the new Game Day Collection from Spellbinders.

To make my card, a 4" x 5 1/4" of white cardstock was placed in the Sports Talk Embossing Folder and run through a die-cutting machine, glue it to a tan card using the Dual Tip Glue Pen. Also die-cut the basketball and soccer ball from the Sporting Goods Etched Dies and glue the black details on top also using the Dual Tip Glue Pen.


A circle was die-cut from tan cardstock,, the front was stamped using the All-Star Sentiment Clear Stamps, with Onyx Black VersaFine Ink and embossed with clear embossing powder. Foam Strips and Foam Squares were placed on the pack to pop it up on the center of the card.


Since the tan circle is popped up, a Foam Circle was placed on the portion of the ball that is over the embossed panel, then glue is placed on the rest of the ball and stuck down. 


The sentiment was stamped and embossed on a white cardstock strip, layered onto a larger piece of black cardstock using Extreme Double-Sided Tape 1/4", then popped up diagonally on the tan circle.


Orange enamel dots were placed randomly on the card for a finishing touch.


Have a crafty day!

Just For You Die-Cut Card


 When I get Christmas or holiday dies, I like to think of ways to use them year round so I get the most bang for my buck. I made this card using the Sealed Christmas Sprigs Etched Dies and Popular Sentiments Etched Dies from the Sealed for Christmas Collection from Spellbinders, just click on the link.

I made a country floral card that works for Fall. The flowers and leaves were die-cut from white cardstock and sponged with inks. You can't tell from the picture, but glitter is in the center of the flowers.
The flowers are layered on jute ribbbon that I cut the wire edges off of. I think jute ribbon is perfect for Fall cards.

Have a crafty day!

Simple Thanks


Today I have a simple thank you card that use adhesives from Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L along with dies from Rubbernecker Stamps and Simon Hurly.

To make my card, white cardstock and decorative cardstock was die-cut using Candy Stripes Etched Dies.


Use the Dual Tip Glue Pen to glue the white stripes on top of the pink decorative paper.


Die-cut white glitter paper using a leaf die, glue it pointing down, using the Dual Tip Glue Pen. Tie a bow using black twine and glue it to the stem of the leaves, holding the bow down for a couple of minutes to make sure it doesn't move.


Using a Thanks die, cut it from black glitter paper and the shadow from white cardstock and glue the black glitter paper Thanks to the top of the white shadow.


Place 3D Black Squares Mini to the back of the thank you. Be sure to place enough on the back so you don't have any parts sagging.


Pop up the Thanks on the right side of the card. Now attach this to a white card using the E-Z Runner Strips.
