Pop Up Card - Butterfly

 Hello Beauties and welcome!

I just love pop-up dies and the one I used for today is one of my favorites. It comes from Lawn Fawn.

For the card front I used some ephemera and patterned paper from an Echo Park kit. The card stock is from Gina K Designs. The little butterfly embellishment is stamped on pattern paper and is from Stampin' Up.

This pop up die takes so much of the work out of it for you. Just assemble and attach.

I hope you like my card.

Happy Crafting!

Fun Fold - Platform Card

Good morning Beauties!

I hope you week has gone well and your are ready for a craft filled weekend!

Today's card uses Lawn Fawn's Platform Die set

This dies set is so fun to work with and there are endless possibilities. I like that the work of figuring out the dimensions and scores lines are done for you.

I used some emphemera from an Echo park kit I had and then just cut out some flowers to coordinate

I'll be writing my message on the back here and then folding up the platform to go into the envelope as seen below

Happy crafting!

 

Stash Busting - Shine

 Hello Beauties!

Thank you for stopping by today.

Went through my stash to create this card. As crafters, we all have an abundance of paper pieces left over from various crafts. I thought I would dive into the pile and see if o could create a collage design with this card.

I hope you try this crafting style too! Happy Crafting!

Embossing Folders - Sending Love

 

Good Morning! Happy Friday! I hope your week is going well.

Thank you for stopping by. 

Today I wanted to make a quick encouragement card but still wanted the card to have some detail.

To add detail I used a 3D embossing folder, layered a few die cut panels to give the image some dimension. And then added a small stitched circle to hold a simple sentiment.

I chose to stamp the image in black and white because I wanted the nice texture of the embossed panel to shine. 

Happy Crafting!

Using My Die Sets - Santa

 

For 2025 I wanted to go through my craft  stash and use some die sets that I was so excited to purchase but then never actually crafted with. In looking through my supplies I found this little guy. 

He was so simple to out together. The die set is to make a gift card holder where the pull the Santa hat and the face lifts up ti show a gift card but in this case I wanted to use him as a card front.

I hope you take some time to rediscover the supplies ion your stash too.

Happy Saturday friends! I hope your week is going well and you are having a happy holiday season.

Thank you for visiting! 

Today's card is a Bay Window fold card; you can find a tutorial for making this style of card under my tutorial tab. 

The nice thing about this fun fold design is it's ability to stand up on display.

I hope you find time to craft and make something beautiful! Happy Holidays!

Using your Scraps - Window Box

 

Hello and Thank you for stopping by. 

I have been trying to use more of the die sets I don't typically grab in my stash. 

Today I kept this card simple and used lots of layers.  

I started this card with using some scraps from my stash and used a die set from Jaded blossom for the background panel.

This window die is an older one from Stampin Up but window dies are so popular now and so many companies online sell some sort of window die or you could use some rectangle and square dies in your stash to create this window shape.

I then added some stamps and die cut plants to complete this card for any occasion.

Happy Crafting!
