Pop-Up and Pull out card - Wine Wednesday

  Hello and welcome to All Things Beautiful!

Today 's card showcases a fun technique.  Surprise Pop - Up and Pull Out card; you can find a tutorial for making this style card under my tutorial tab.

I used a paper kit from Echo park for this card. I love how all the papers in the kit coordinate so it take the guess work out of putting together papers which saves so much time.

Pop - Up Book Card - Using Ephemera

 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 a Pop - Up Book card; you can find a tutorial for making this style card under my tutorial tab.

 I tried to tackle another paper kit today and use the ephemera to decorate the card front and as the sentiment. I suppose I will mail this card as an encouragement card.

I find it challenging to collage different elements but I stuck with it until I found some configuration that was a little pleasing to the eye. I also used a 3D embossing folder on the patterned paper. 

I don't use this technique often but I enjoyed how it came out so much that I am determined to use it more. How about you, do you like to use embossing folders on plain cardstock or on patterned paper?

I combines a sentiment stamp and a floral image together on one side of the book; allowing space for a hand written message on the other. 

I am so glad you stopped by tof=day. Happy crafting!

Easel Card - Birthday tiered cake

 Good morning friends! I hope your week is going well.

Thank you for visiting.

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

Here is a close up of the textured embellishments. I love flowers on a cake so I couldn't resist making this card with lots of pretty flowers. I also added a little glossy accents to the flower centers for some shine. 

I enjoyed making this card so much IO just had to make in a few different colors. 

I hope you enjoyed my cards!

Have a great day! Happy crafting!

Big Hugs - Pop Up card

 Hello friends! 

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

I am still trying to bust through my stash of scraps and I thought using this Lawn Fawn pop-up die would help me do that. 

I tried to get creative and make a few different card fronts that would pair nicely with the pop - up sentiment inside. 

I hope you have a great weekend! 

Happy crafting!

Clean and Simple Card - Panel Card Thanks

 Hello friends!

Best is Yet to come - Scrap Busting

 Hey there friends! Welcome to All Things Beautiful!

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

Don't know what to do with all those scrapbooking/cardmaking kits you receive in the mail? Sometimes, I don't either. lol

These papers come from an echo park kit. I truly love Echo Park paper. It's like kryptonite to me. lol I love the patterns, colors, and the heaviness of it. Such great quality paper! But, sometimes I don't know what to do with all the ephemera. 

I decided to sit down today and try to use some paper scraps and embellishments that looked like they belonged together. I hope I accomplished that? What do you think? 

The embellishments were made using Gina K Designs cardstock and a charm die set from Karen Burniston. I was inspired by the clip on the front of the sentiment card. I thought this might make a nice encouragement card for a friend of family member. Luckily I was able to make two!

I hope the new year finds you well. 

Until next time, happy crafting!
