Let the adventure begin

May 15, 2023

Hi all, it’s Sylvia here for you today at the blog. Those of you who know me, know that I love to travel abroad to countries with a lot of nature, where I hopefully have an opportunity to spot wild animals. As I cannot travel the whole year I have made a fun safari card with animals as a substitute. It requires a lot of diecutting, so grab a coffee or tea and craft along with me.

Step 1: measure a piece of white cardstock of 21 x 29,5 cm (A4 size) and score halfway to form a A5 card

Step 2: use various shades of green ink (I use distress ink) to ink the front side randomly, leaving a white space in the centre (does not have to be perfect at all).

Step 3: diecut in different shades of green cardstock a whole lot of leaves & foliage, from different die sets and glue them randomly as a border at the front of the card, leaving the (white) centre part open.

Step 4: cut away the white centre along the edges of the glued leaves (see photo for reference)

Step 5: diecut the monkey, lion, giraf, elephant, safari jeep, prince and as many other animal body parts that you like. Assemble the “whole” animals, the jeep and its driver.

Step 6: Arrange the assembled animals on the front of the card, as well as all animal body parts. (see photo for reference). The legs, ears and tails (body parts) can be put anywhere between the foliage, you don’t have to show them in total, just a part will do.

Step 7: Put the driver behind the wheel of the jeep, glue them both on the inside of the card, so that you can see it peeking through the open centre at the front. Decorate the inside with the elephant and some stamps. If needed you can even add more foliage, to both the front and the inside.

Step 8: Stamp the sentiment on a large leaf and adhere to the front of the card.

Can you see how many animals are hidden on the front of my card? Just as in real life during a game drive, you cannot always spot all animals through the thick foliage…..

Happy crafting!

Sylvia

Mini Floral Truck

March 21, 2023

Hi everyone, it’s Tina here. Today I am sharing a Mini Floral Truck. Below are the steps to create your own Mini Floral Truck Card.

Step 1 – Trim White Soft Finish to 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″, score at 4 1/4″ and fold in half for a horizontal top fold card. To create the mini truck version visit Els’ YouTube here. You have to place the Food Truck die slightly below the fold line so that the card doesn’t cut in 2 and bring the front just at the edge of the side. Pass it through the die cutting machine and cut only the front. The same for the back. Place it at the edge and only diecut the back. For the center part use a trimmer or an exacto knife.

Step 2 – Diecut Food Truck pieces using various colors of cardstock. Assemble and adhere to truck using Kid’s Choice Glue.

Step 3 – Diecut Farm Accessories (sunflower) using various colors of cardstock. Assemble and adhere to card using Kid’s Choice Glue.

Step 4 – Diecut Monster 2 (flower) using various colors of cardstock. Assemble and adhere to card using Kid’s Choice Glue.

Step 5 – Stamp Good Food Good Mood using Versafine Onyx Black Ink to the inside of the card.

Don’t be afraid to come up with ways to stretch (or in this case slim) your dies. Below is a link to all the products used. Thank you for stopping by and Happy Crafting!
