Embossing - Butterfly Thanks

 

Good Morning! Happy Friday! I hope your week has been well.

I thought I would pull out an embossing folder today and use an embellishment from an old project.

This butterfly was made using a Tim Holtz stamp set and a few different inks from Gina K Designs and some blending brushes to help the colors transition from one to the other.

I then cut out a few white panels and glued them together to give them dimension and a nice black simple thanks sentiment. I wanted the butterfly to really pop and I thought using a black sentiment on a white background would help it to stand out.

I just love all the texture of this card. What do you think?

Have a wonderful day and happy crafting!

Bay Window Card - Birthday Greetings

 Happy Saturday friends! I hope your week is going well.

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. 

This is my first attempt at this style of fun fold. I think it's cute when it is assembled and stand up.

Here it is laying flat. I would suggest sending some instructions with the card so the recipient knows how it works.

Happy crafting today!

Using your scraps - rays of sunshine congrats

 

Good Morning! I hope your week is going well.

Thank you for visiting!

Today's card was made by is pursuing my 2025 goal of using up some 6 x 6 paper pads and scraps from my stash

For these scraps I set the strips on an angle to give it a sunshine ray look.

Then grabbed this pretty scalloped edged die and cut out the panel.

Each panel cut slightly different making each card unique. I then grabbed this filly flower die from Stampin Up. An oldy but a goody and placed a stamped sentiment banner on top to anchor the embellishment.

Thank you for visiting and Happy Crafting!

Slider Card - Bookmark Style

 

Hello friends! Thank you for stopping by to see my latest card post. 

The card I made today is called a variation of a slider card. I used the Art impression die which I have had in my stash for a very long time. 

If your interested in making this style of card you can find a tutorial for making this style card under my tutorial tab.

I enjoy gifting interactive cards to others. It is so mice to receive snail mail these days but to make it an interactive or fun fold style card I think makes it even more special. 

The pull tab can even be used for a book mark by the recipient. 

Here are a few other variations I made using different papers.

Using Paper Strips - Happy Anniversary

 Hello and welcome to All Things Beautiful!

Quick and easy card for you today. I am determined to use up my stash of scraps in 2025. 

For this card, I added some scraps to a 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 piece of cardstock in a diagonal fashion and then die cut the panel out of a fancy panel die. All that was left was to pick the embellishments I wanted on the front.

These flowers come from a Spellbinders die set from the Sealed collection. 

Add a sentiment banner and I was done. I created about 5 of these. 

 I should have enough anniversary cards for the year. ;-)

Happy a great day and happy crafting!
