  • Love Heart (Two)

    Posted on by Julie Comment


    A sweet, pretty in pink, Valentine, wedding or anniversary card using some new dies & paper. Looks fancy, but it’s easy to make & the bonus is you can make a second, opposite card using the leftover paper & die cuts. (That will be coming in a later post.)

    For the Inspiration Challenge (IC946) we are visiting My Red Door & their Pinterest Board where I was inspired by THIS pillow.

    For my card, I die cut the beautiful heart w/ birds once out of white & again using the pink patterned paper. I used the Love die & cut the word in the top of the white heart, allowing the pink paper to show through.  I used the pink outline of the heart w/ the white inside of the second heart. The fancy background was cut out of white & backed with the rest of the pink paper. The missing heart in the center of the pink paper is covered by the fancy white layer, so no one will know it’s even missing. The little bird bodies were also cut out in areas that wouldn’t be seen.

    The birds have white wings added & the birds as well as the big heart are popped up a bit for dimension. Three white half pearls were attached in each of the four corners.

    Thanks     so much for stopping by!

  • I Adore You

    Posted on by Julie Comment


    An easy to make card for an anniversary or Valentine’s Day for a special someone. New, soon to be released hearts die & greeting are fun to use, pretty to look at it & easy to change the colors to suit the occasion.

    X3!
    For the Inspiration Challenge (IC945) we are visiting Notebook Therapy & their Pinterest Boards. I found THIS picture for my inspiration.

    My card is fairly easy. I die cut a white panel w/ the hearts on the right side. I replaced the left side after it was cut & used a plain rectangle to cut that side. I also cut some white card board to layer behind it & the heart cut outs before attaching them to a piece of purple designer paper.

    The greeting was cut using an offset tag die & I used the same die to cut the purple layer. Since they were same size, I trimmed down the white layer a bit to show the purple layer. Some extra hearts were cut out of the purple and stacked on card board before attaching to the card.

    Thanks     so much for stopping by!

  • Snowman Wishes

    Posted on by Julie Comment


    A winter snowman card inside a mini purple polaroid frame with snowflakes and pretty wintry paper. All in cool winter colors and a couple of adorable little birdies make a fun, winter card you can use for a birthday or thank you card.

    A big congrats to Lou Ann, the newest Featured Stamper (FS883)! She has a wonderful gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I kept the layout & snowman theme but used different images, dies & colors.

    After coloring & die cutting my cute little snowman, I put him inside a mini purple polaroid frame & added a couple of snowflakes. The white layer was first stamped w/ lt blue snowflakes & instead of a separate greeting piece, I put it on this layer. The layer behind is a piece of winter paper I thought was perfect for my card.

    Here are the Copics I used:
