Using Embossing folders and Layers - Hello

 

Good Morning! Happy Friday!

 I hope your week went well and your looking forward to a weekend of crafting time

I decided to make a card today using my 2025 goal of busting through my paper kits. This paper is from from an Echo Park kit and I used one of the embellishment cards as the focal point.

I decided to add some texture and interest by using an embossing folder on the plain white cardstock and then layering the variety of patterned papers. 

I had a few flowers left over from other projects and added them as embellishments to provide some balance..

I hope you an inspired to go through your paper kits and use this laying technique to create a card of your own.

Happy crafting!

Keeping it Simple - Bird house

 

Hey there friends! Welcome to All Things Beautiful!

 I hope your day is going well and you are finding some time to be creative.

I am revisiting my Keeping it Simple layout with choosing a patterned paper for the background, some sort of large embellishment for the focal point and adding a sentiment to a corner. 

Although my embellishments aren't simple; the design is. I just love these birdhouse dies from Spellbinders. There are 4 styles. I added extra dimension by surrounding the bird and birdhouse with various floral die cuts from my stash.

Happy Crafting!

Fun Flip card - Celebrate

 Good Morning! I hope your week is going well.

Thank you for visiting. 

Today I made a Fun Flip card. If you'd like to see a  tutorial on the technique you can find one under my tutorial page.

For this card I used some charm dies by Karen Burniston for the wine and wine glass and the floral arrangement was made from small flower dies from Spellbinders.

I hope you try this fun flip style card and share it with me in the comments!

Happy Crafting!
