You’re the coolest!

June 19, 2023

Hello Everyone, Jackie here again with todays post. I have made a summery card using some parts from the Food Truck die set along with the super cute squirrel however this design would work with any of the character’s.

Step One:

Create a pink top folding card blank measuring 5.5 x 4.25″ then trim a white panel measuring 5.25 x 4″ and round the four corners using a corner punch. Die cut the food truck window trim part then use this to draw a pencil line ready to cut out.

Step Two:

Trim out the window shape then glue the frame in place.

Step Three:

Die cut the tiled panel from the kitchen set then paint every other tile using the watercolour pallet. Fix the tiled panel to the pink card blank then attach the window panel to the card front using 3d foam pads.

Step Four:

Create the sun shade by die cutting the shade into both white and pink card, fussy cut every other pink section and glue on to the white part. Fix the shade on top of the window along with a die cut sign bar from the Food Truck die set.

Step Five:

Stamp out and trim the Stay Cool sign then gently ink around the edges using pink ink.

Step Six:

Add a selection of die cut ice creams and ice lollies, attach these using 3d foam pads.

Step Seven:

Die cut and build the Squirrel as normal, glue an ice lolly in his hand then fix him to the card front to finish.

I have chosen to leave this card with some white space but there would be plenty of room for another sentiment to suit your occasion.

Thank you for stopping by today, I hope you have enjoyed todays post. Until next time happy crafting – Jackie xx

Celebrating 60

June 5, 2023

Hello everyone – Jackie here today. My brother is going to be 60 very soon (how did that happen so quickly!) so I have bought him a bottle of champagne to celebrate which gave me the inspiration for this card.

Step One:

Die cut a pretty edge border in dark pink card then glue to the reverse side of a prepared panel measuring approximately 5.5″ x 3.5″ or 14 x 9cm. Attach the prepared panel using 3d foam pads to the front of a top folding A2 card blank 5.5″ x 4.25″ or 14 x 10.7cm

Step Two:

Trim another panel measuring 4.5″ x 2.75″ or 11.5 x 7cm then splatter with watercolour paints, here I used colours yellow, blue and purple. Fix the panel to the front using more 3d foam pads.

Step Three:

Build the Monster as normal and ink around the edges to give him a bit of dimension. Add a couple of pieces of card to the reverse side of the monster then fix him to the card front, this will raise him slightly from the panel.

Step Four:

Trim down another edge border and add to the right hand side of the panel. This step can be done in step two: It was a detail I added after I attached the splattered panel.

Step Five:

Die cut all the words, shadows and numbers twice. Glue them all together then add them to the card front, the layering will add dimension and texture.

Step Six:

Finish off by adding the champagne glass. Die cut the glass from vellum and use a yellow marker to add dots on the reverse side, fix the glass to the monsters hand using a tiny piece of double sided tape.

That is my card for today, You can make this work for any occasion and change the colours to suit you.

Thank you for stopping by today, I hope I have inspired you to have a go. Happy crafting – Jackie xx

Bee-jewelled

May 15, 2023

Hello everyone. Jackie here today sharing a jewellery box idea made from the book box die set. inside has two compartments, one for rings and one for loose jewellery. This would also make a lovely gift idea for a special occasion.

Step One:

Start by die cutting and building both parts of the book box keeping the two part separate for now.

Step Two:

Using the picture frame die set. Die cut two sides and trim off the angled ends, make sure they fit snugly inside the book box. glue them both in position leaving a tiny gap between that will fit the rings.

Step Three:

Create a magnetic catch. Glue a small piece of metal or magnetic sheet to the inside of one of the catch ends then cover over with a piece of card fussy cut to the same shape. Fix a small magnet to the other flap.

Step Four:

Glue the book box part inside the outer cover. Die cut the bee and decorate the lid using honeycomb, gems and what ever you fancy.

Step Five:

Use the fall out honeycomb pieces to add a button to the catch flap. Stack 4 or 5 pieces together then glue in place.

Step Six:

Decorate the inside in a similar theme then add a piece of gold coloured paper to the front compartment.

There would be lots of way to change the way I have created the inside of this box, you can add more ring parts or ever change the orientation. I hope I have inspired you to make your own jewellery box.

Happy crafting Jackie xx

Tag set duo

May 1, 2023

Hello everyone Jackie here today. The other day I needed to make a tag at the very last minuet with not much time and that got me thinking, maybe I should make a few tags for my card box that are ready to go and what’s more these would also make great card toppers popped up with foam dots if needed in a hurry.

Stamped Lolly Front:

Stamp out the lollies using black waterproof ink then colour them with water colour paints and set aside to dry.

Die Cut Lolly Front:

Die cut a bunch of lollies, glue them all over then trim off any over hanging bits. Use the trimmed bits to fill any empty areas around the edges then add some gel pen detail.

Attach another die cut tag to the reverse side to add a pop of colour to the back, the message can be written on the back.

Make the Tassels:

Cut a small strip of thin card measuring approximately 2.25″ x 1″ or 6 x 3cm, snip into the strip carefully leaving the top intact creating a fringe. Roll the fringe up using a small paint brush or pencil then unravel and glue a piece of twine to one end. Roll up again gluing in place as you go creating the tassel then fix another tassel to the other end of the twine.

Add your chosen sentiments in any way you like or leave them blank to add when you need them. Here I have added a simple Happy Birthday die cut to one and the other has a black strip of card then a stamped hand cut fishtail banner on top.

Thank you for stopping by today, I hope I have inspired you to make a few tags for your stash ready to go Happy crafting Jackie x

Watermelon seller

April 17, 2023

Hello again, Jackie here sharing a very cute card made using one of my favourite characters the raccoon! I do say that about a lot of Joset’s character dies but this raccoon is truly adorable. However you could easily use whichever is your favourite.

Step One:

Start with a white card blank measuring 5.25″ x 5.25″ ink blend in the centre, I used distress oxide tumbled glass then swipe across the bottom creating a sort of road, here I used distress ink cube hickory smoke.

Step Two:

Next create the cart, you will have to forgive me here because I changed the hub caps at the last minuet, here they are green but I changed them to brown in the end.

Use a large circular die to create the umbrella top, die cut into green card then use green coloured marker pens to make the water melon markings then add a little dark green ink around the curved edge. Add a strip of scalloped edge along the bottom then glue the die cut broomstick in place. Die cut and build the cart as normal and fix the prepared umbrella in the center.

Step Three:

Stamp out the sentiment using versafine onyx black ink, here I have used an older stamp set CS067 banner sentiments but you could use what ever you have in your stash. I do like the way the sentiment curves around the umbrella top. Fix the cart in place using 3d foam pads.

Step Four:

Die cut the watermelon halves adding the dark green ink around the curved edges, create some unsliced watermelons following the step for the umbrella top. Die cut and build the raccoon as normal adding rosy cheeks with a little distress ink in spun sugar and grey ink around the edges then add white gel pen to his cheeks and nose.

Step Five:

Add the watermelons to the cart, try and hide the unsliced melons so they look like whole melons then attach a fussy cut tiny price tag. Lastly fix the raccoon in place using more 3d foam pads.

Thank you for stopping by today and I hope I have inspired you to create your own watermelon seller!

Tic-Tac-and Toe-tally Fun

March 20, 2023

Hello Jackie here with todays post which is a super fun one today, the kids are going to love this one! I have created a pizza box tic-tac-toe board game complete with tiny playing pieces, the game is small enough to pack up and take on your travels keeping those small and big kids occupied!

Step One:

Start by die cutting and building the pizza box base then add a die cut scalloped edged layer to the lid.

Step Two:

Next build the burger. I have stacked up the bun part three times to add some dimension, add a yellow panel to the lid before attaching the burger along with all the words.

Step Three:

To create the playing board. Cut a white panel then trim four thin strips of red card, use a gridded cutting board to arrange and glue the strips into the criss cross shape. I have stacked up the white panel by three layers to create a sturdy board.

Step Four:

Layer the playing board on a yellow scalloped edge base, I have double stack the base for extra stability.

Step Five:

I have stacked the pieces with a lot of die cuts to make them thick and sturdy, you can choose to use as many layers as you like.

The playing board and pieces fit perfectly inside the box.

Thank you for stopping by today, I hope I have inspired you to have a go at one of these game boxes. You could easily make this in a different theme by using other small die cuts.

Happy crafting – Jackie x

Donut Worry!

February 20, 2023

Hello everyone, Jackie here with todays post. The brand new food truck die sets are so fantastically cool but today I thought I would show you a card created just using the coordinating stamp set. CS296

I have chosen to use alcohol markers here however you can use which even medium you like.

Step One:

Step one is not really a step, I just wanted to show you that you can easily cut your stamps apart. Stick your stamp to a scrap piece of acetate then gently slice them apart using a craft knife or scissors. It can make the stamp a bit more versatile and you can easily fit them together to stamp in the way the were intended.

Step Two:

Stamp the donut image onto a piece of scrap white card using black ink suitable for alcohol markers.

Step Three:

Colour each donut a different colour, leave a thin circle of white to add shine. Fussy cut them all out.

Step Four:

Die cut a medium sized rounded cornered panel. Place a prepared donut in the centre then set the sentiment stamp in place, remove the donut and stamp using black ink.

Step Five:

Layer the stamped panel onto a square piece of black card. Create a scalloped edge using the fall out pieces from planner essentials 27 page die.

Step Six:

Place all the donuts on the card front fixing in place using 3d foam pads.

Thank you for stopping by today I hope you have enjoyed this post. Until next time happy crafting – Jackie xx

Monster Love!

February 6, 2023

Hello everyone, Jackie here with today’s blog post.. I am still in a lovey-dovey valentines kind of mood so here is another valentines card for today’s inspiration, of course this can be changed for different occasions too.

Step One:

Start by ink swooshing across the front of a 5.25×5.25″ top folding card blank, here I used a distressed ink cube weathered wood.

Step Two:

Round the top right corner with a large corner punch then fix a medium sized die cut heart shape towards the centre top, use 3d foam pads for added height.

Step Three:

Make the biscuit. Die cut the half eaten biscuit shape twice, use a tiny heart die to cut out the centre of one biscuit piece. Glue the two together then fix a red die cut heart into the centre and ink around the edges with a light brown ink.

Step Four:

Die cut and build the monster then ink around the edges for texture. Attach the monster to the card front along with the biscuit.

Step Five:

Stamp out then die cut the sentiment, you will need to trim off the (‘re) from the word you’re. I have die cut a further two sentiment pieces in black card to help the sentiment stand out a bit more. Fix in place using more 3d foam pads.

Finish off by adding a couple more tiny die cut hearts, you could add some bling here if you wanted to.

Thank you for stopping by today, I hope I have inspired you to have a go at my card – Happy crafting Jackie x
