Sneak Peek: Valentine Circles

Hello, Gemma here today and I’m excited to share with you a sneak peek of the sweet Valentine Circles stamp set that releases January 11th.

Sneak Peek: Valentine Circles

There are 6 circle images in this set and they can be used together or on their own. The coordinating die set also includes a scallop edge with stitching, for a decorative finish.

I love these monkeys together. I stamped them and the cupcake image, coloured them with copic markers, then die cut with the coordinating die. I also die cut some plain circles to go behind each image, for some dimension.

For my background, I die cut some patterned paper using the previously released Stitched Strip dies. I layered these over some white card die cut strips, for more stability, then adhered them to my card base.

Sneak Peek: Valentine Circles

On my card base, I stamped a sentiment from the previously released Simple Sentiments stamp set. The large Love word is from the new Valentine Hearts stamp set. I love the look of this large stamped word and am so excited that it has a coordinating die. I embossed it with a pink embossing powder and die cut with the coordinating die. As with the circle images, I added some plain die cuts behind it for dimension.

Finally, I arranged the three images from the Valentine Circles stamp set to finish this fun anniversary card.

I hope you were inspired by today’s card. Stop by tomorrow for a sneak peek at the new stencils!

Sneak Peek: Let’s Party + Party Days

Hi everyone! Jane here today sharing a sneak peek of some products from the amazing release that premiers on January 11th! I’m sharing a look at the Let’s Party and Party Days stamp sets.

Sneak Peek: Let's Party + Party Days

For my first card, I’m featuring the new Party Days stamp set. To start, I created a background by cutting a few small diamonds from the Stitched Diamonds die. The following card stock colors were used (left to right): oyster grey (Ellen Hutson), blush pink (stamp market), apricot (lawn fawn), peach, melon and citrine (stamp market). Next, I arranged the cut diamonds on a piece of white copy paper and glued them down using liquid glue. Then, I used one of the dies from Slimline: Peekaboo Windows to cut the background piece.

Next, I created a shaker window by cutting a piece of white cardstock using the largest slimline die and medium size die from Slimline: Peekaboo Windows to create a frame. A large piece of acetate was adhered to the back of the panel using liquid glue. The balloons from the new Party Days stamp set was stamped to the front of the acetate frame using black StazOn ink. I drew in the strings using a black fine tip sharpie.

Then, I stamped a sentiment from the new Let’s Party stamp set and adhered it to the lower left of the card front. The card front was lined with double foam tape to create a shaker and I used 6mm and 3mm sparkling clear sequins to fill the shaker. Everything was adhered to a slimline card base and that completes the first card!

My next card uses these sweet cupcake images from the new party days stamp set.

To start, I created a striped panel using the Simple Strips die and same cardstock colors listed above. The strips were adhered to a piece of copy paper using double sided tape. Next, I cut a large circle from white cardstock using  the largest circle from the Scallop Circles die. Using liquid glue, I adhered the circle to my panel with the strips and cut the overlaying edges away using scissors.  

Sneak Peek: Let's Party + Party Days

Images from the Party Days stamp set were stamped using copic friendly black ink and colored using the following copic markers:

Cupcake tops: YR61, R32, R11, R01, RV21, RV10, YG23, YG01, Y000
Cupcake wrapper: C3, C0

Sneak Peek: Let's Party + Party Days

The sentiment from the new let’s party stamp set was stamped on black cardstock using versamark ink and white heat embossed.  Using my paper trimmer, I cut a strip with the sentiment and adhered it to the circle using foam tape.  The cupcake images were cut using the coordinating die and trimmed down using scissors. Foam tape added to the back of the cupcake and they were adhered to the front of the card.  The circle was adhered to a dot pattern paper (this is dot washi tape on white cardstock) and an A2 piece of oyster grey cardstock by Ellen Hutson.  The entire panel was then adhered to an A2 white card base and that completes the card!

Sneak Peek: Let's Party + Party Days

The next card and tag set uses images from the new Party Days and Let’s Party stamp sets. I love how these sets coordinate so well together!  To create the slimline card, I first stamped and white heat embossed a cake from the new Party Days stamp set. The background was then ink blended using the following inks: party dress, bellini, lemongrass, orange twist (all by Catherine pooler), and peach perfect (altenew).  Next, I used a copic marker to add shadows on my cake and a white gel pen used to fill in the white frosting.  

Sneak Peek: Let's Party + Party Days

Using the Party Days coordinating dies I cut the image and white center frame. Then, I added strips of colored cardstock to the background and adhered everything down using liquid glue. Next, using versafine black ink, I added confetti from the Let’s Party stamp set. The frame was cut from white card stock using the new Slimline: Scallop Frames die and adhered to the outside of the card.

Sneak Peek: Let's Party + Party Days

For the tag, I white heat embossed an image from the Let’s Party stamp set and ink blended it using the same inks listed above. Next, I cut the largest circle from the Scallop Circles die set using white cardstock and adhered it to the outside of the tag. Sentiment from the Let’s Party stamp set was white heat embossed on black card stock and adhered using foam tape. Then, I used a hole puncher to create a hole at the top for the ribbon to slip though and that finishes the tag!

Thank you so much for stopping by today! Stop by tomorrow for more sneak peeks of the amazing new release by Pretty Pink Posh!

Sneak Peek: All My Love + Valentine Hearts

Hello, crafty friends, it’s Leica. Today I am sharing two Valentine’s cards using products from the Pretty Pink Posh release that is available January 11th.

Sneak Peek: All My Love + Valentine Hearts

First, I made a slimline shaker card. I love that PPP now offers slimline dies, as this card size is still very popular. I took the first 2 large dies from the Slimline: Peekaboo Windows die set and cut a frame in white cardstock. For the back panel, I cut a 3.25” x 8.25” cardstock and used the new Lattice stencil in Faded Jeans distressed oxide. I then stamped the scalloped heart from the Valentine Hearts stamp set 5 times and colored with Copic Markers in R35/37/39, B93/91. I turned them into heart balloons by adding strings.

Next, I adhered them to the acetate using foam tape. To make a well for the shaker card, I lined the frame with foam tape and also added foam tape behind the heart balloons so that some of the gems would stay in the top part of the card. The gems I used is Sweetheart Rhinestones. I then stamped the word “Love” from the Valentine Hearts stamp set and die cut with its coordinating die. Lastly, I used glossy accents for the heart-shaped balloons.

Sneak Peek: All My Love + Valentine Hearts

The next card is a clean and simple card using the Heart Vines die and All My Love stamp set. First I stamped the heart from the All My Love stamp set and colored with Copic Markers. I then cut the Heart Vines die and left all the pieces together. I taped the heart that I’ve colored behind the Heart Vines die. Next, I glued on the entire piece to a 4.25″ x 5.5″ card base.

Sneak Peek: All My Love + Valentine Hearts

For the sentiment, I used the Happy Valentine’s Day stamp from the Love stamp set, embossed onto a black cardstock that I cut using the .25″ strip from the Simple Strips die set, and adhered on the center of the heart. Lastly, I added Glossy Black Jewels for added texture and interest.

Christmas Theme Week- Day 5

Pretty Pink Posh: Christmas Theme Week- Day 5

Hi friends, Eloise here and today I’ll be creating a Christmas Card using the Amaryllis Stamp Set.

Need to add to your Christmas collection? Save 15% on our Christmas section this week!

Pretty Pink Posh: Christmas Theme Week- Day 5

I started off with stamping out the images from Amaryllis Stamp Set onto some vellum and I white heat embossed them. I then cut them out. Next I took some coloured cardstock and cut down strips at different widths and lengths. I adhered them directly onto a white card base and then adhered the vellum pieces over the top with foam tape.

Pretty Pink Posh: Christmas Theme Week- Day 5

Tips for Mass Producing:

1. Use scrap cardstock for strips. The Simple Strips or Stitched Strips dies make it even easier!

2. Can do stripes instead using different mediums.

3. Use a stamping tool to easily stamp multiples of the images.

Next I white heat embossed the sentiment from Winter Wreath onto a thin strip of black cardstock, cut one side at an angle and adhered it into place. I finish off the card with a hemp cord bow and some clear droplets scattered around.

Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope you were inspired to use some of your scraps to create fun backgrounds!

Create A Scene: Winter Woodland

Create A Scene: Winter Woodland

Hi there, Gemma here for a new Create A Scene feature.

For my scene card today, I’m using the sweet Winter Woodland stamp set. Adding some baubles to the tree adds some Christmas fun.

Create A Scene: Winter Woodland

I began with the background, blending some Hickory Smoke distress oxide ink on to my white card panel. I faded the grey into the white for my wintry scene.

To add texture and the look of snow fall, I flicked the panel with white acrylic paint mixed with water. I also added some flicks with a sparkle spray. For some darker drops, I flicked Hickory Smoke distress oxide ink over the panel too.

Create A Scene: Winter Woodland

Once dry, I layered the panel over a piece of red patterned paper. I stamped a sentiment from the Holiday Greetings stamp set before adhering the panel to a card base.

Create A Scene: Winter Woodland

Next, I stamped images from the Winter Woodland stamp set, coloured them with copic markers and die cut them with the coordinating dies. To add dimension, I adhered some plain die cuts behind the images.

Create A Scene: Winter Woodland

The baubles are from the Angel Friends stamp set. I coloured them with copics and added some metallic gold pen details. Layering them with plain die cuts for dimension, I adhered some gold thread behind each bauble, then attached the other end of the thread behind the branch.

Create A Scene: Winter Woodland

I then adhered all the images to the card to finish my winter woodland Christmas scene.

I hope you enjoyed this winter scene. Thank you for stopping by!
