Gnomie’s Seasonal Add-Ons

Hey, everybody! Happy Tuesday – I hope your week is off to a great start! I’m thrilled to be back on the Clear Scraps blog today with my final DT inspiration project for this team. My term for Clear Scraps has come to an end and I’ve opted not to continue for another term, so I’d like to thank them for having me along for the last year. You’ll remember that I shared My Seasonal Gnomie a few days ago, and I’m back today to share all of his seasonal add-ons created with the Wood Fall Collection Shapes, Wood Holiday Collection Shapes, Wood Spring Collection Shapes and Wood Summer Collection Shapes!

All the wood shapes were colored with acrylic paint pens. I adhered a small magnet to the lower part of the gnome’s beard in the area where he’ll ‘hold’ each of the seasonal add-ons (which also have a magnet on the back of each one). I adhered a tiny magnet to the back of each of his hands and two tiny magnets on the front of each of the add-ons for him to ‘hold’ them.

We’ll start with the pumpkin, apple and maple leaf from the Wood Fall Collection Shapes.

We’ll move on to the bulb, snowflake and tree from the Wood Holiday Collection Shapes.

Now we have the heart, shamrock and Easter egg from the Wood Spring Collection Shapes.

And finally, we have the flower, watermelon slice and popsicle from the Wood Summer Collection Shapes.

How stinkin’ cute are all these seasonal add-ons made from the wood collection shapes?! Love, love, love!

Happy Easter Twister

7/21/22 Lucky Random Winner at Art Impressions Blog!
8/28/22 Spotlight Favorite at A Perfect Time To Craft Open Challenge!

Hello my friends! Happy Monday! I hope you had a great weekend! I’ve popped in with my second post of the morning with a super adorable pastel plaid Easter card created with the amazing Art Impressions Easter Twist Set stamps and dies that I want to enter into their Perfect Plaid Challenge #331 that’s going on right now! If you haven’t had a chance to check out the Twisters, you really need to… they are so stinkin’ fun I can’t even stand it! This is the second one I’ve made – the first one was a birthday card and the post is HERE if you’re interested in looking. I LOVE an interactive card and the recipients typically do, too! ;)

I cut a standard A2 size top-folding card base from 110# Solar White cardstock along with a pastel plaid layering panel from The Paper Studio Four Seasons and Everything In Between -2- paper pad (one of my favorites) and adhered it to the card base. Using the Art Impressions Twist Frame Dies, I cut the aperture into the front flap as well as a frame for the aperture from CutCardStock Stardream Metallic Flame cardstock and adhered it to the opening.

Using the Art Impressions Easter Twist Set stamps, I stamped the front and back images in Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored them with alcohol markers, cut them with the coordinating Art Impressions Easter Twist Set die and adhered them together. I die cut two pieces of ric rac and a stitched mini scallop circle from Solar White cardstock using the My Favorite Things Stitched Ric Rac and Stitched Mini Scallop Circle STAX Die-namics. I stamped the sentiment in black ink on a scrap piece of Flame cardstock, punched it with a 1″ circle punch and adhered it to the die cut scallop circle. I adhered the ric rac and the sentiment piece which completed the card front.

I cut the inside panel from a coordinating piece of patterned paper from the same seasonal paper pad and adhered it to the inside of the card base. I cut a rectangular piece of Solar White cardstock for a signature panel and adhered it to the bottom.

And one more peek… here’s the back side of the twist element – you have to admit there’s nothing cuter than a bunny butt! ;)

Thinking of You

Hey everybody! Well, another weekend has come and gone, and here we are on Monday! I hope you have a great week coming up! I have a pretty Tape Runner DT inspiration project to share with you today featuring die cut shapes from Spellbinders. And of course, all panels were adhered with Retractable Tape Runner. I made this card for someone very dear to me who was going through a rough time. I thought the gold accents were so pretty and cheerful.

As mentioned above, all panels were adhered with Retractable Tape Runner. Wet glue was used only to adhere the doily and pearls, and the two elements with the gold accents were popped up on foam squares. I cut a standard A2 size side-folding card base from 110# Solar White cardstock along with layering panels from Basis Blue, Bright Gold Foil and 80# Solar White cardstock. Using the Prickley Pear Stamps Chicken Wire Background stamp and Catherine Pooler Tranquil, Stone Blue and Cove Blue inks, I stamped the background, cut it with the My Favorite Things Stitched Rectangle STAX Die-namics, and layered the panels together. I cut a doily from 80# Solar White cardstock using the Spellbinders Medallion Four die and adhered it to the card front along with several small die cut hearts. I adhered the flowers and sentiment with Scrapbook Adhesives 3-D Foam Squares, and added several white pearls which completed the card front.

I cut the inside panel from 80# Solar White cardstock and embellished it with leftover strips from the background and gold foil used on the front. I added a die cut sentiment and layered the panel on Basis Blue cardstock.

And one more peek… such a pretty card and I’m loving all the layers and touches of gold! And it’s great to have Tape Runner to hold it all together! ;)

7/17/22 Rising Star at A Place To Start!

Hi friends! I hope you’re having a great weekend and it’s not too hot where you are! I think it’s pretty hot everywhere, lol! Our A/C is working overtime for sure! I haven’t been in my studio too much since our little feline girl Puff-Puff was injured. She was in the hospital for eight days and since coming home a week ago, she’s doing pretty well and I’m feeling more like crafting. I pulled out my Spellbinders Damask Daydream Kit of the Month from July 2021 and whipped up a pretty inspirational tag today while watching a suspense thriller on Lifetime. Yeah, the hubs laughs at me for watching the LMN channel, lol!

I used quite a few items from the kit – cardstock and patterned papers, a floral corner die, a number of die cut shapes, gemstones and foam squares. I started by adhering coordinating patterned papers to a Ranger distress tag and built it up from there, layering a die cut floral corner and a bunch of die cut shapes. I popped some of the die cut shapes up on foam squares for dimension, and added several gemstones. Gotta have some bling!

I created a hole reinforcement for the top using Stampin’ Up 1/2″ and 1/4″ circle punches and light purple cardstock. I threaded some pretty purple twill ribbon through the hole and tied it with some gold metallic string (both from Really Reasonable Ribbon).

And one more peek… I really love how this turned out! The most fun was picking out all the items I wanted to use and then watching it come together! And I love a green and purple color combo… one of my favorites!

Coffee Time Holiday Card

Hi everyone! Hope you had a great weekend and your week has started off nicely! I’ve popped in today to share an awesome Tape Runner DT inspiration project! I created a clean and simple almost one layer caffeinated Christmas card featuring Waffle Flower stamps and dies and a strip of washi tape. And, of course, all elements were adhered with Retractable Tape Runner! I paper pieced the coffee cup with green glitter and patterned paper. This was such a simple card to create and would be a fun one to mass produce for those on your Christmas card list!

As mentioned above, all elements were adhered with Retractable Tape Runner (even a line of adhesive under the washi tape). I cut a standard A2 size top folding card base from 110# Solar White cardstock, rounded the bottom right corner, and applied a strip of Eyelet Outlet Fun Pattern Washi Tape toward the bottom. I stamped the coffee cup on a scrap piece of Solar White cardstock using the Waffle Flower Coffee Time stamp set and cut it with the coordinating Waffle Flower Coffee Time die set. I stamped the cup again on green glitter paper and on green plaid paper, then fussy cut and paper pieced the cup and sleeve which I adhered to the bottom right of the card front. I stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set in Memento Bamboo Leaves ink and added several red gemstones from Eyelet Outlet.

The inside was equally as easy as the front. ;) I applied a strip of the same washi tape used on the front (with a line of Tape Runner adhesive under it) and stamped a sentiment from The Project Bin Merriest Christmas stamp set in green ink.

And one more look… super happy with this CAS caffeinated Christmas card! Say that fast three times, lol!

Americana Mermaid Wall Hanging

Hey everybody! Happy Tuesday! I hope my American friends had a great July 4th long weekend! I’m stoked to be on the Printable Cuttable Creatables blog today with my debut DT inspiration project! I’m all about Americana and anything red, white and blue, and I grew up seeing live mermaid shows at the Weeki Wachee Springs Attraction (in central FL), so my project is a combination of the two. I created a fun wall hanging featuring the Mermaid in the USA and Mermaid Tail SVG files and red plaid digital paper from the Christmas Patterns Digital Paper Mega Bundle. Yep, you read that right… Christmas paper isn’t just for Christmas! ;)

I cut all the pieces in the Mermaid in the USA SVG file in red, white, blue and gold glitter cardstock. I printed the red plaid digital paper from the Christmas Patterns Digital Paper Mega Bundle on Basis 80# White cardstock. This versatile paper pack can be used for non-holiday projects, too! I trimmed the digital paper and adhered it to a sturdy 8×8 panel that I created from two pieces of 165# Solar White cardstock glued together. I adhered all the pieces from the SVG file, and ended up adding a layered wave from the Mermaid Tail SVG file at the bottom which I had not originally planned. I punched two holes at the top with my WRMK Crop-A-Dile Big Bite and added a ribbon hanger made from Really Reasonable Ribbon Flag grosgrain ribbon with knots tied on the ends.

And one more peek… so loving how this turned out! I love fun versatile digital papers and thinking outside the box! And aren’t these SVG files so fun?!

Hi everyone! Happy Saturday! I hope you had a great weekend and have something fun planned this weekend! I have a pretty CutCardStock DT inspiration project to share this morning featuring our Bright Gold Foil cardstock which I paired with our Basis Green and Basis Light Lime cardstock. This engagement or wedding congratulations card has a filigree leaf background cut from the gold foil cardstock which really makes a statement!

I cut a standard A2 size top-folding landscape card base from Neenah Classic Crest 110# Solar White cardstock. Using the Dare 2B Artzy Leaf Background die set, I cut the filigree leaf background from Bright Gold Foil cardstock which I adhered to a Basis Green cardstock stitched rectangle panel with spray adhesive. I die cut a stitched leaf from Basis Light Lime cardstock and stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up Happy & Heartfelt stamp set in Catherine Pooler Deck the Halls ink. I picked out a die cut foiled floral element that I had already created with the Pinkfresh Studio Joyful Bouquet washi tape and die, adhered it to the top of the leaf, and then adhered the panel to the card base. I added several Kat Scrappiness gold pearls to the leaf which completed the card front.

Using the same Dare 2B Artzy Leaf Backfground die set, I die cut a stitched rectangle panel from Basis Green cardstock for the inside along with a thin frame from Bright Gold Foil cardstock which I adhered to the stitched rectangle panel with spray adhesive. I also die cut a slightly smaller stitched rectangle panel from Neenah Classic Crest 80# Solar White cardstock using a My Favorite things Stitched Rectangle STAX Die-namics along with an embellishing strip from Basis Light Lime cardstock which I adhered together. I stamped a sentiment (from the same Stampin’ Up Happy & Heartfelt stamp set) in Catherine Pooler Deck the Halls ink. I adhered an additional Pinkfresh Studio foiled floral element and adhered the panel to the inside of the card base.

And one more look… totally loving how this turned out! Green is my favorite color, so I automatically went for the Basis Green and Basis Light Lime cardstock to compliment the Bright Gold Foil cardstock!

Hey everybody! What have you planned for this weekend coming up? Hopefully something fun! Our new challenge launched this morning over at Love To Craft Challenge Blog and I’m stoked to share my DT inspiration project for LTCCB #69 – Anything Goes! I’m absolutely in love with gnomes, and the adorable guys on this motivational mini slimline card are from the Stampingbella Gnomes Have Feelings Too stamp set… another stamp set I’ve had for a bit and have never used. Every new year I tell myself that I need to crack the plastic on some of the stamp sets and dies in my stash that have never seen the light of day, and I think I’ve started this new year off right! ;)

I cut my go-to mini slimline size of 3-1/2″ x 6″ landscape top-folding card base from Neenah Classic Crest 110# Solar White cardstock along with layering panels from CutCardStock Stardream Metallic Jupiter cardstock and Neenah Classic Crest 80# Solar White cardstock. I stamped the three gnomes and sentiment from the Stampingbella Gnomes Have Feelings Too stamp set in Catherine Pooler Midnight ink and colored them with alcohol markers. I clipped the corners with the Tonic Corner Punch and adhered the panel to the red cardstock panel and then to the card base. It doesn’t get much easier than this! ;)

I cut the inside panel from Neenah Classic Crest 80# Solar White cardstock and stamped the sentiment from the Brutus Monroe Groovy Friend stamp set in black ink. I clipped the corners and adhered the panel to a CutCardStock Stardream Metallic Jupiter cardstock layer and then to the inside of the card base.

And one more peek… love this CAS design with some of the cutest little guys ever! ;)

These shoes were made for walkin’

Hi friends! Happy Fri-YAY! Today is the 1st of July and you know what that means… lots of posts! Our new challenge is live this morning over at Mix It Up Challenge Blog and I’m super stoked to share my DT inspiration project for MIUCB #60 – Anything Goes + optional CAS! I know I’ve mentioned before that I used to be very intimidated by a clean and simple design, but over the past few years I’ve grown to love it! And remember, the technique twist is not ever mandatory to play in our challenges! I created a fun shoe-themed card using a Bugaboo heels image from my digital image arsenal. Bugaboo may be closed but their images will go on forever! ;)

I cut a standard A2 top-folding card base from CutCardStock Basis White 110# cardstock. I printed the heels digital image on CutCardStock Basis White 80# cardstock and cut it with my Scan N Cut along with several additional plain die cuts which I adhered together for some dimension. I colored the image with pink and black alcohol markers and added a little sparkle overlay to the black ribbon. Using the My Favorite Things Stitched Ric Rac Die-namics die, I die cut a strip of ric rac from CutCardStock Basis Black cardstock, and adhered it across the bottom of the card front. I stamped the sentiment from the Paper Pretties Sassy Shoes stamp set in Memento Tuxedo Black ink just under the ric rac on the right side. I adhered the shoe just above the ric rac and added several tiny pink gemstones to complete the card front.

Using the same ric rac die, I die cut a strip of ric rac from Pop-Tone Razzleberry cardstock and adhered it across the top of the inside flap, and then stamped the sentiment from the same Sassy Shoes stamp set just below it.

And one more peek… so loving how this turned out! It’s definitely CAS and it’s almost a one-layer card, lol!

Happy Fall Box Card

Hi friends! Can you believe it’s the middle of the year already?! The months are just flying by! Our new challenge is live this morning over at Love To Scrap Challenge Blog and I’m excited to share my DT inspiration project for LTSCB #156 – Anything Goes! Box cards are at the top of my all-time favorites and this truck box card with all the pumpkins and leaves was super fun to create… I could smell Fall while I was making this one! This Fall Truck Box Card is yet another awesome cut file from Simply Crafty SVGs! I was on a truck ‘roll’ there for a bit and I believe I’ve created nearly all the truck box cards Sandy has designed!

I cut the truck body and panels from CutCardStock Basis Dark Orange, the tires from Basis Black, the back lights from Basis Red, the sentiment from Basis Brown, and the bumper and mirrors from Stardream Metallic Silver cardstock. I cut the pumpkins and leaves from Basis Green, Basis Dark Red, Basis Gold, Basis Orange, Pop-Tone Orange Fizz and Pop-Tone Tangy Orange. I added some texture by using the Sizzix Texture Fades Harlequin embossing folder on the side and back panels, and the Darice Chevron embossing folder on the tires.

I cut the back panel from Neenah Classic Crest Solar White cardstock and stamped the Inspired By Stamping sentiment (sadly out of business) in Catherine Pooler Icing on the Cake ink.

Another angled shot and one folded flat for mailing… so loving how this turned out! I’m definitely in my element when assembling these projects – not a care in the world and no clue what’s going on around me, lol! ;)
