Pop Up and Pull Out card - Autumn Elements

 

Hey There! Welcome to All Things Beautiful!

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


Today's card is called a Pop-Up and Pull Out card.

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


I didn't add a sentiment on this card. I really liked the collaged fall elements but you certainly could add one on the upper 1/3 of the card or if it is small stamp it on the white space of the oval die cut.


I hope you give this card a try. It's a nice surprise for the recipient to find in the mailbox.

Happy Fall and happy crafting!

Slimline pop up - fall bench

 

Happy fall and welcome to All Things Beautiful!

I made this card in a Karen Burniston class and thought I would share this style of card. I just love how she pulls different elements together to make a card. She is so creative. 



The gnome holding the acorn is so cute! Taking her classes has really helped me to think outside the box when it comes to using my patterned papers. 

The size of this card is a slimline.. The card base is then trimmed out to expose the sentiment card. 
The bench pop is one of her die sets I haven't used in quite some time. It's time to rediscover my love of this die set and make a few more cards using it.


The pop up bench just adds a touch of surprise and that gnome holding the pie adds extra cuteness.


I hope you break out some supplies you haven't used in a while and rediscover the enjoyment of using them.

happy crafting!

Crafting with Paper Kits - Panel Sentiments

Hello and welcome to All Things Beautiful!

Today's card is working toward depleting my paper stash.

These papers came from an Echo Park paper kit.


The office embellishments are from a Karen Burniston die set.

I took a rounded panel corner die and trimmed the corners of the Note to You sentiment panel so that the beautiful floral background panel would show more. 
Then made embellishments in coordinating colors and placed them around the sentiment panel.

Happy Crafting!

Keeping it Simple - Using background panel dies

 Good Morning! I hope you are well.

Thank you for visiting. 

I have been trying to use more of my 6 x 6 paper pads. 
Today I kept this card simple and used lots of layers.  
This background paper piece die is from jaded Blossom. They have some really cute die sets and background dies.



and then I used the same paper to create a few just a note cards as well.


Happy Crafting!

Keeping it Simple - Love card

 Hey there friends! Welcome to All Things Beautiful!

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




Just a quick card I made for my daughter. 
She loves her naps, especially curling up with her 2 cats.
I thought she would appreciate this sentiment.

I anchored the elements on a label die background and then added it to a pattern paper that reminded me of my grandmother's sheets

Happy Crafting!
