The center of a donut

Hi friends! Happy Hump Day! I’m thrilled to be on the blog today over at The Project Bin with a pretty cool slimline card! I created a diorama card using the Hole Foods stamp set from my stash. As soon as I saw this stamp set I knew I had to make a box of donuts, and there’s no better way to showcase them than in a diorama! I had to tweak the measurements a bit but it worked out!

I wanted a pink and green color combo (one of my favorites) so I created a pink top panel and embellished it with Washi Tape, a stamped pink donut, Crystal Drops and a layered sentiment. The sentiments in this set are hilarious, I might add! ;)

Dioramas are cool in that they fold flat and when the top panel is lifted, the card turns into a box, perfect for these donuts!

I cut a rectangular aperture and adhered acetate behind it. I cut an overlay panel which I embellished with Washi Tape and another sentiment. I stamped the three donuts and icing, and heat embossed the sprinkles. I colored the cake part of each donut with alcohol markers, fussy cut them and adhered them inside the box before putting it together.

And one more peek… SO loving how this turned out! Now I can’t wait to send it, lol!

A Cup Of Christmas Cheer

8/9/20 DT Favorite at Sweet Stampers Challenge Blog!

Hi everyone! Happy Huuump Day! Hope you’re having a wonderful week! Can’t believe next week is the last week of July already… where has this year gone?! It’ll be Christmas again before we know it and I’ve really been in Christmas mode! I’ve popped in this morning to share a card I created for The Outlawz Challenges. I put the finishing touches on a couple cards that were on the table in my studio yesterday afternoon and this is one of them, and it’s for the July Progressive/Freebie Challenge. Our sponsor this month is Twinkle Lane Designs who provided us with the Gingerbread Treat digital stamp set. How stinkin’ cute is this little guy?!

I found several varieties of this cool front step card on Pinterest several weeks ago and traced one version to the Stempeleinmaleins blog where I had to convert the A2 size measurements to inches. I tweaked the measurements for this Christmas card to make it a little wider to accommodate the digital image I printed, so it’s 5-1/2″ square overall.

I created the card base from kraft cardstock. All the coordinating papers I used are from the Echo Park Wise Men Still Seek him 6×6 paper pad which can be used for either feminine or masculine projects. I colored the image with alcohol markers, trimmed it and layered it on tan paper. The digital stamp set included two sentiments so I punched one for the front with a scallop punch and layered it on a slightly larger die cut oval. I added a few copper flat-back pearls to finish the front.

For the back, I cut the other sentiment with a die and layered it on a slightly larger punched scalloped oval which I adhered to another patterned paper from the paper pad. This left plenty of room to write a custom message and signature.

And one more look, folded flat for mailing… totally loving how this turned out!

Feel Better Soon

Hi, friends! What does the camel say?! Lol, you know that one! A new challenge is live over at Love To Craft Challenge Blog and I’m thrilled to share my DT inspiration project for LTCCB #48 – July Anything Goes! Those who know me know that I REALLY love fun folds – so I created a pop-up flower pot get well card to showcase this month! I’m proud to say that this design is my own! I did attempt another pop-up flower pot card I found a tutorial on a few months back and let’s just say it didn’t go as planned, lol, so I designed a more sturdy and more simple construction.

2019_1218012a

After creating the flower pot which is a ‘box’ design that folds flat, I used two flower punches along with a leaf punch and a variety of bright-colored cardstock to create 13 flowers and leaves. There are 12 flowers for the pot and one for the belly band. I added a green Dot Sparkler to the center of each flower and arranged a panel of six flowers for each side, gluing them down as I went.

2019_1218014a

I created two gingham bases with magnets. The flower pot and sentiment are affixed to the main base which folds flat for mailing. The second base is constructed of 110# kraft cardstock and attaches to the main base to hold it open for display.

And here’s one more look with the card folded flat (held with a belly band) ready for mailing. Love how this turned out and will eventually add my template with instructions to the ‘freebies’ section on my blog!

It’s the most Wonderful time of the year

Hello, my crafty friends! OMGoodness, can you believe the year is almost half over?! Our new challenge at Love To Craft Challenge Blog is live this morning and I’m super stoked to share my DT inspiration project for LTCCB #47 – June Anything Goes! I created a Christmas card, but this isn’t your ordinary Christmas card. It’s a Pop-up Presents card! You know how I love fun folds and I was absolutely thrilled when I ran across the tutorial at Splitcoast Stampers!

2019_1218007a

When using someone else’s tutorial, I always put my own spin on it to make it mine. I layered the front panel on gold glitter paper, and added dimensional presents on the front panel matching two of the presents on the inside. I used die cut gold foil snowflakes embellished with Dot Sparklers on the presents to keep the card a little flatter.

2019_1218008a

I love the inside – those presents are so awesome and look so real, lol! I layered the stamped sentiment and used a few more of the die cut gold foil snowflakes.

2019_1218009a

And one more peek… I’m SO loving this!

Joy-Love-Noel-Peace

Hello, my crafty friends! Happy Monday to you! It’s time for a new challenge over at Merry Little Christmas Challenge Blog and I’m super stoked to share my DT inspiration project for MLCCB #23 – Anything Christmas Goes! I created a pretty card with a pop-up gift bag inside to hold cash or a gift card! OMGosh, I’m so smitten!

2019_1213005a

I created the card base and then selected two coordinating patterned papers. I stamped the sentiment in green ink, cut it out and layered it on three stacked die cuts. I fashioned a bow from six strands of gold metallic thread and attached tiny red jingle bells to the ends hanging down.

2019_1213006a

Here’s a shot of the card opened up showing the gift bag. How stinkin’ cute is this?!

2019_1213007a

I stamped the inside sentiment in green ink, cut it with a fancy die and layered it on a slightly larger green die cut.

2019_1213008a

And here’s one more look… so happy with this! It’s been several years since I created one of these, and my instructions are handwritten, so I don’t know who should get the credit. But I sure do love it!

HB2U

Hi everyone! Happy May 1st already! It’s time for another fun challenge over at Love To Craft Challenge Blog and I’m excited to share my DT inspiration project for LTCCB #46 – May Anything Goes! I created an exploding birthday card! You know how I love fun folds and this was the first one of these I’ve attempted. Fun, fun, fun!

I had a pint-sized visitor who jumped into my light box just as I started taking photos, so I had to share! I’m pleased to introduce you to Loki (‘God of Mischief’ and very appropriately named by the hubby), who was rescued from the freezing cold back in late October. It was about 19 degrees and snowing, and he showed up under our 85-year-old neighbor’s carport with his little eyes matted shut and crying. She called my husband and that was it… we had a new addition to our family. He’s growing in leaps and bounds, and is full of ‘spit and vinegar’ as my mother would have said! UPDATE: I work ahead on many of my projects and this shot of Loki was taken several months ago when I created this project and scheduled this blog post. You’ve actually already been introduced, lol! ;)

2019_1218001a

Okay, on to my card which is really the subject of this post, lol! My inspiration for this explosion card came from… yep, you guessed it… Splitcoast Stampers, and the tutorial can be found HERE. I made the card 4-1/2″ square and it boasts a large stamped birthday sentiment on the belly band to keep it closed.

2019_1218002a

I used fun bright coordinating papers from The Paper Studio along with Stampin’ Up cardstock.  I’m totally in love with this paper – I love the whimsical feel and the bright colors. ;)

2019_1218003a

I stamped on the top of the exploding mechanism and embellished it with some Gumdrops. Here’s a shot of it opening up…

2019_1218004a

And fully opened…

2019_1218005a

And one more peek with the belly band on it, ready for mailing! What a FUN fold! I’m so smitten!

Two-Pocket Purse

Hello, my crafty friends! Happy Hump Day – hope you’re having a great week so far! A new challenge is live over at Merry Little Christmas Challenge Blog and I’m excited to share my DT inspiration project for MLCCB #21 – April Anything Christmas Goes! You know how I love fun folds, and several months back I found a new one to try in a Splitcoast Stampers newsletter HERE. What a fun idea!

2019_1130001a

I chose plain ivory for the purse base, red and green cardstock for the flap and ornament embellishment, and traditional red and green double-sided Christmas papers for the inside pockets. The closure is a velcro circle and the handle is ivory diamond satin ribbon.

I tucked a card with a traditional Christmas sentiment into the pocket on the front side.

The card in the pocket on the back side has a place for a signature. This is so stinkin’ cute, and the sky is the limit with regard to colors, papers and occasions for gifting this little purse! You could also tuck in a gift card or cash! ;)

I’d love to enter this little purse into the following challenges:

just dance

Hi everyone! Well, it’s hard to believe it’s March already! I’m happy to share that I’m once again sponsoring and guest designing for C.R.A.F.T. Challenge, this time for C.R.A.F.T. Challenge #547 – Female! As a sponsor for this challenge, I have a great prize pack consisting of a package of Prima flowers, an adorable Crafter’s Companion Paintbox Poppets rubber stamp and a slew of handmade bows from Polly’s Paper Studio – all for a lucky winner over on the C.R.A.F.T. Challenge blog! So come on over and play with us!

I created an encouragement card. Those who know me know that I am a fancy fold fiend. I discovered a corner fold over on Liz’s Crafty Sunflower blog which looks very similar to one I made several years ago HERE but constructed a little differently. I see more of these little ballerinas on a birthday card for one of our granddaughters later this year using this fold! ;)

2020_0226001

So, what’s better than an adorable little ballerina dancing her heart out?! FIVE adorable little ballerinas dancing their hearts out! ;) These stamps and dies are from CAS-ual Fridays Stamps and I’m so smitten! The sky is the limit with what one could create with these ballerinas using different sentiments!

2020_0226002

As Liz mentioned in a comment on her blog, the construction of this card is very simple. I used a 10″ square piece of white cardstock, scored at 5″, rotated and scored again at 5″. Cut one center score line up from the bottom to the center, then diagonally score the two sections at the top and decorate. There’s a plain white panel ‘hidden’ underneath for a signature and handwritten message. I used a Unity stamp on that panel and added half of a Velcro circle to stabilize the card while in the open position.

2020_0226003

The card folds into a 5″ square, flat for mailing. So fun! Love how it turned out!

Ornament Box Card

Hi everyone! Happy Hump Day and January 1st! The first challenge of the year is live over at Merry Little Christmas Challenge Blog and I’m excited to share my DT inspiration project for MLCCB #18 – January Anything Christmas Goes! You know me and fancy folds… I’m always on the search for new ones to try! I’ve been making box cards for years but found a different kind of box card in the tutorial section at Splitcoast Stampers HERE. Love, love, love!

2019_0925021a

I dug into my stash of Christmas paper and settled on this Stampin’ Up paper pack which is a favorite and one of my go-to’s. The tutorial author mentioned that lighter weight paper works best for this project to get good crisp folds, so this paper definitely fits the bill. Using more Stampin’ Up supplies, I stamped and die cut a Christmas ornament to decorate the belly band.

2019_0925022a

Here you see the opened card revealing the box feature. I placed a stamped sentiment card inside the box which is removable to make it easy to sign. ;)

2019_0925023a

I added red Stampendous Dot Sparklers to the sentiment card, ornament and belly band.

2019_0925024a

One final look… this folds flat and fits nicely into a standard envelope. Love how this turned out!

BOO!

Hello, friends! It’s Day 4 of the 2019 Cat Lovers Hop and I’ve stopped in this morning to share another card with you! If you’re a fellow cat lover, be sure to come on over and play – Janis has worked hard getting tons of sponsors so that means there are tons of prizes to be won!

I created a swing easel card featuring a Tim Holtz Crazy Cat with accessories in all the bright Halloween colors of black, purple, green, yellow and orange! SO fun! My inspiration for this card came from a recent Splitcoast Stampers newsletter HERE. Those who know me – even moderately well – know that I love me some fun folds and I’m always looking for new ones to try!

2019_1023001a

I’m in love with the Tim Holtz Crazy Cats stamps and dies right now, so I pulled them back out along with the coordinating Crazy Things stamps and dies, and stamped, colored and die cut my cat along with his hat, broom and pumpkin. I cut six of the BOO! die cuts and layered them for dimension, to keep the easel portion of the card open, and added an orange gemstone to the exclamation point. ;)

2019_1023002a

Here are a couple close-ups. I stamped a simple sentiment on the back of the cat panel and left a spot to sign the card. I included a side shot of the card below so you can see the cool construction. ;)


And here’s one more look… this card folds flat for mailing. How cool is that?!
