    Simply Amazing!

    Hello everyone!

    It’s Donna Idlet here sharing this FUN Rainbow card featuring products from the NEW October 2021 Release! I’m loving the newly released Box Sentiment Strips.  I have used them on my card to create a rainbow background.  They can be used for more than stamping sentiments.

    Here is my card for your inspiration:
    Here is how I created my card:
    • Card Base A2 size 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″
    • Cut Rainbow strips from cardstock in my stash to create the rainbow pattern using the 1/2″ wide strip from the KS Boxed Sentiments Strips die. I added the strips to a piece of cardstock and die cut it with the  KS Embossed Edge Rectangle Dies.
    • Cut Simply Amazing Sentiment w/shadow out of black card stock & vellum and glued together.
    • Stamped, die cut and colored the Quokka from the KS Quokka’n Up Stamp Set.
    • I assembled the card and finished it off using the KS Fun Flurries Sprinkles.

    Thank you for stopping by!
    Here is a list of supplies I used on my card, Affiliate Links used at no additional cost. Thank you for your support.

    Spooky Smile

    Hello Friends Waleska Galindo here, are you excited for Halloween??? Well I am Halloween is my favorite and Halloween cards are my favorite to make!  Today I want to share a super cute and fun Slimline card I created,  I hope you like it and can be inspired by it!

     

    CARD DETAILS:

    To create this card I started with the base I used the Stitched Scalloped Nesting Slimline Dies  I used a purple cardstock, with the Slimline Never Ending Nesting dies I cut the second panel, for this panel I used the Boo To You Slimline paper.  I then cut my favorite ghost from the Boo-gy Ghosts Dies three times.  My idea was to make them look like ghost photos, ha ha!

    I then cut from white cardstock the photo die from the Quokka’n up Coordinating Dies, I adhered a back paper on each from the same paper collection and adhered the ghosts to each photo.  I used the Toil and Troubled Layered Stamp Set for the sentiments I stamped at the bottom of each photo, I adhered the photos to the base of the card and done! Super cute and easy card!

    Thank you so much for stopping by today! I hope you have and amazing Halloween!

    Simply Amazing

    Good morning all my crafty friends, today we will be creating a die-cut card. I am up on the Kat Scrappiness Blog with some inspiration for you. I am using the 5 x 7 Foliage die, the 5 x7 Never Ending Rectangle die, the Boxed Sentiment dies, the Simply Amazing Sentiment die, and a bit of ink and some pearls. Supplies list will be found below.

    Card details

    1. Firstly, cut the foliage die 5 times. At least one of these pieces of card stock should be for water coloring.
    2. Continue to cut a panel with the Never Ending Rectangle Die that is slightly smaller than the Foliage pieces. Add this panel to a sheet of double-sided adhesive paper. This is optional but will make step 5 easier.
    3. For the top panel, I used some hybrid inks, sprayed them on my glass mat, sprayed some water and smushed the die panel into the inks. Choose whatever ink colors you want. Set this aside to dry.
    4. Next, splatter the top panel with white ink and pearlescent ink.
    5. Glue all five foliage patterns together for dimension.
    6. Then I used the boxed sentiment dies to cut numerous strips to cover the back panel. Ink the edges with ink used in the “smushing”. Adhere them to the adhesive panel, therefore, creating a paneled look.
    7. At this time, cut your sentiment and ink it in a color of your choosing. Cutting it from card stock is also an option. After the ink dries, glue it to the paneled piece.
    8. Nothing is done without a little bling! Add some pearls to the panel. Different colored pearls were used for the tittles (yes that is a word) on the letter I.
    9. Finally adhere this to a 5 x 7 card base with foam tape, for dimension.
