Hello-Clean and Simple


Today I have a clean and simple card made using a beautiful Spinaround Flower Stencil from Rubbernecker Stamps. Links to the products is at the bottom of the post.

Here's how my card was made-
Place the Spinaround Flower Stencils on white cardstock, use pink ink on all of the flowers, clean it then spin it 1/4 of the way and apply the next color, continue until all four sides are done.
Die-cut this piece using the Nested Square with Pierce Die and the next larger die on black cardstock to layer the flowers onto.


Stencil green flowers onto a strip of white cardstock, once the ink is dry, lightly sponge the strip with the same color ink.
Layer the panel onto a slightly wider piece of black cardstock and glue it to the center of a white card.
Die-cut Hello Script w/ Shadow die on white cardstock. Keep the Hello in the cardstock to sponge it with blue ink on the bottom and green ink on top.
Die-cut the shadow portion on black cardstock and glue the sponged Hello on the shadow.



Apply 3D Foam Squares Micro Black on the back of the Hello and pop it up center, right on the card.
Place small self-adhesive pearls to the center of the flowers.

Quick and Easy Friendship Shaker Card


Making shaker cards is always fun but sometimes it's hard to make a round shaker and getting the foam adhesive to go in a circle. Well Scrapbook Adhesives has made it easy with 3D Foam Circle Frames!

To make this card decorative paper from a 12 x 12 paper pad was used. As a card maker I find that I have sheets with large patterns left after I have used up all of the smaller patterned sheets, and this is a great way to use up those sheets. The pretty paper was die-cut using a mini slimline die.


Next two circle dies were placed on white glitter paper to cut the smaller circle, then the largest of the two, plus a bigger one were placed on purple cardstock to die-cut a circle frame. 


Take the largest of the dies used and diecut acetate.  Use the Dual Tip Glue Pen to glue the two circle frames on top of it as shown.


Find the right size of circle frame on a sheet of 3D Foam Circle Frames, remove it from the carrier and place it towards the top of the die-cut decorative paper. Do NOT remove the carrier exposing the sticky yet, first stamp the sentiment in the center of the circle using black ink. 


Place shaker bits in the center of the frame, remove the carrier and place the acetate on top and press all around the circle to insure adhesion.

Summer Fun Card


Who's ready for some fun in the summer sun? I used papers stamps and dies from Rubbernecker Stamps to make my summer card, here's how it was made-

Cut a piece of decorative paper from the Off The Grid Paper Pad, to 4" x 5 1/4".
Using a paper cutter, a 1 1/2" slight was cut half way down the paper on the right side.
Each of the cut pieces were folded, you want the fold to go both, the top and bottom corners.
Place a 3D Foam Circle behind each fold, so that it will stay up a bit.
Glue this to a green card.


Stamp the sentiment on a white cardstock paper strip with Serene Color Fuse Ink and layer it onto green and yellow papers.


Place Foam Strips to the back of the sentiment panel, leaving a space where it will go over the folded center of the decorative paper.


Die-cut leaves using the Small Leaf Group Die from white cardstock, vellum and green cardstock.



Pop up the sentiment in the center of the card and glue the leave under the strip.
Stamp the duck from the Woodland Animals #1 Clear Set on white cardstock with black ink, color with colored pencils and cut it out using the matching die from the Woodland Animals #1 Dies and glue it to the right side of the card as shown.

Wonderful Friends Great Adventures Card


Use the Retro Trailer Die to die-cut different color papers and piece it together, set aside.





On a white cardstock panel 4 1/4" x 5 1/2", make a background scene starting with the grass by using the Slimline Hills and Grass Stencil and different shades of green from the Color Fuse Set #10. 
Next, move up to the mountains using brown inks from the Color Fuse Set #3.
The clouds were made using the Clouds Stencil and blue inks from the Color Fuse Set #8. All of the inks were applied using blender brushes, I like the soft look that can be achived, but you could also use foam daubers.


Die-cut the background scene using the large die from the Nested Rectangle Stitch Die Cut Set and mount to a brown card.
Stamp the sentiment from the Best Friend Set on a white cardstock square with brown ink from the Color Fuse Set #3 and layer it onto gray and peach squares, then pop it up at the top left of the card using 3D Foam Squares.


Glue the trailer to the bottom center of the card.
For the final touch, die-cut a seagull using the Seagulls Die and glue it to the top right of the card.

Be A Cactus Card

 


Today I have a fun cactus card with a southwestern flare and it's up on the Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L Blog.

Die-cut white cardstock and decorative paper using the largest rectangle die from the set. Using a paper trimmer, cut just a bit of the top left corner off and about half of the bottom right corner off.


Using the E-Z Runner Squares Dispenser, tape the cut white cardstock panel to the decorative paper panel and set aside.


Die-cut white cardstock using the second to the smallest oval and apply green and blue inks using blender brushes.


Stamp the cactus images on white cardstock, color with colored pencils then die-cut the images. Next, apply Sunflower Liquid Pearls to the dots on the tall cactus. Since the dots are so small, I squirted some of the Liquid Pearls on my glass mat and used a small stylus to dip it into the Liquid Pearls and dot it on the vase.

E-Z Runner Squares were placed on the back of the tall cactus 3D Foam Circles were place behind the flower cactus and mounted to the oval as shown.


3D Foam Strips were placed on the back of the oval panel. These are great to use so that no part of your oval sags once it's placed on the card.


The oval is placed off center to the upper left. Two die-cut arrows were glued below the cactus's using the Dual Tip Glue Pen. The sentiment was stamped with brown ink on white cardstock, layered on brown cardstock and popped up on the bottom of the card using 3D Foam Circles. Orange enamel dots were randomly placed around the card.
