just imagine

Hey everybody! I hope you’re having a fantastic weekend and it’s not too cold where you are! It has snowed here a couple times and it’s pretty chilly… just how we like it! I’ve popped in this morning to share a Keep It Simple DT inspiration project created with items in the NEW Pure Imagination Collection which is the biggest release of the year! Hopefully you’re following Keep It Simple on social media because there have been some pretty cool Black Friday Weekend promotions advertised – starting with a scavenger hunt on the website and a Cricut Maker giveaway! Dayummm! I created a super cute 4″ square diorama card featuring papers, stamps and dies from this awesome new collection!

The card base was cut from Solar White cardstock and embellished with coordinating papers from the 12×12 Collection Pack. The sentiments and images were stamped from the Golden Ticket and Let’s Play Collection Stamps, colored with alcohol markers, and cut with the coordinating Golden Ticket and Let’s Play Outline Dies. Some of them were popped up on foam strips. Several enamel hearts were used to complete the card front. I used the Stitched Circles Nested Dies to cut the circular aperture with frame on the inside. There’s nothing cuter than opening this card and seeing that adorable little fella with the golden ticket!

The back panel is also embellished with coordinating prints and a stamped and die cut sentiment. This is another fun fold that folds flat for mailing. I love that!

Crazy cat lady and crafting junkie! We have 10 feline rescues. I’m addicted to stamping and love making cards, ATCs, and 3-D projects (especially paper shoes, paper purses and mini albums). I also dabble in mixed media, art journaling, altered art and custom jewelry. If you’re looking for me, I’ll either be in my studio or getting some kitty lovins! ;)

  1. Oh, Leslie, what a wonderful window card! The papers are so bright and cheery. I love the Willie Wonka movie and love the memories of watching it with my kids. Thank you for playing with the Creative Creases Challenge, and I hope you can join us again soon. We really appreciate your support!

  3. What a bright and playful card! I love the Willy Wonka theme and the way you made a window for him with his golden ticket to really showcase him! That yellow patterned background behind him is great, too! Thanks for sharing this great card over at Creative Creases!
