WOW... Tulips 7x5in card - 365 day challenge

Image
  Hi Craft addicts! Today's handmade card for my 365 day challenge is this card using dies, stamps and papers from a variety of companies... I used my Hunkydory corner punch from their Prism range to round the corners of this 7" x 5" white card (either from Hunkydory or Creative Crafting World). I had created the background some time ago using Creative Expressions Cosmic Shimmer Pixie Powders (mainly Green shades) - all you need to do is spritz some water on some cardstock, then tap the Pixie Powders on to it and allow it either dry naturally or use a heat gun.  I cut the main panel out from the above backgroun using the largest Petit Picot Edged die from Spellbinders. I then trimmed a piece of Green linen effect card to fit the mat layer and stuck it down using a tape pen - I didn't want to use a wet glue as I didn't want it to show through. I stamped the Tulip image from Sheena Douglass on to some of her Willow White card using a stamping platform and Gina K Obs...

Hi Craft addicts!       Today's latest handmade card for my 365 day challenge is this With Love card using stamps, stencils and dies from a variety of companies... I used the Dotted Tulips layered stencils/dies set from Stamps by Me and followed the instructions as to what stencil goes first as the lightest colour block goes first and then you increase the colour strength until the last one which is Obsidian Black ink from Gina K. I then cut them out using the co-ordinating dies and put them to one side. The background layer is a piece of caramel coloured cardstock (from Tattered Lace) which I then spritzed with a variety of Aladine IZink sprays which I allowed to dry naturally and then used one of the Shabby Edge Rectangle dies again from Tattered Lace and cut a panel out. I rounded the corners of a top fold 7" x 5" white card (from Creative Crafting World's Paper Boutique range) using a Hunkydory punch and attached the panel to the front using PVA glue. I used a mix...

Happy Easter - Bunnies and Easter Eggs C6 green card -  Day 60 of my 365 day challenge Hi Craft Addicts! Day 60 of my 365 day challenge and this project is an Easter Card which hopefully will cheer someone up! I have used a Crafty Expressions stamps, some background papers from Tonic Studios and Stylish Silhouettes Rainbow Radiants pad. How I made this card:- I still have some of these shaped cards that I need to use up, so thought an Easter card would be ideal.. I first of all cut a panel of the Flowery Tonic Studios' Mid Summer Morning 8" paper pad using my Cutterpillar Pro and attached it to the front of the card. I then tore 3 strips of green paper (from the Rainbow Radiants 6" paper pad from Hunkydory's Stylish Silhouettes) and used 2 of the darker shade for the top and bottom parts and the lighter one in the middle and stuck them to the bottom of the card. I then stamped out various images from the Crafty Expressions Spring Fun set using Onyx B...
