Welcome a Bears Christmas!

November 24, 2023

Hi everyone, Katie here with todays inspirational post! I wanted to share a cute card I made using Oli the Bear from Joset’s new Collection “The Great Outdoors”. I have so many ideas for this sweet little bear so I started with a Christmas Card. So grab a coffee and lets begin.

Step 1: Using your favorite cardstock cut out your bear bits (I used two shades of brown) then ink your edges with Vintage Photo Distress Ink.

Step 2: Stamp your word image, I used “Wishing you a Beary Merry Christmas” from the Bear, Moose, Beaver stamp set.

Step 3: Out of your favorite cardstock cut out your pinecone, evergreen boughs and red berries, ink and assemble.

I am so in love with this new die set, the detail as you can see above is amazing.

Step 4: Cut the base for your card, I used 110lb cardstock in kraft, Next, I cut a back ground paper from a blue plaid designer paper and ran it through a 3D embossing folder. (hard to see the image, but its pine boughs). Then I took another designer paper and cut out a oval mat for my card.

Step 5: Start assembling your card by adding your designer paper and oval to your card base. Next, add your pine boughs and pine cones, I used pop-dots for the Oli and the “Beary Merry Christmas” . I added red berries.

Step 6: I added glossy accents to Oli’s Nose and berries.

Step 7: I added Bear Paw Prints to the inside of the card. Final step I speckled the pinecones and pine boughs.

I hope you enjoyed todays inspiration, see my Facebook page @Katie Porcina to see other Christmas Card inspirations. Take Care and Happy Creating.

Best Wishes Cards

November 23, 2023

Hello, my dear friends!!

Rajni Chawla, here from Timeless Creations. Today, I bring you 2 beautiful, bright, and cheerful Best Wishes cards to inspire you using Elizabeth Craft Designs floral dies. My hope for you is not only to inspire you with ECD floral dies but also that it bring you a little something more: happy vibes when you transform pieces of paper into impressive works of art for yourself or loved ones. Handmade paper flowers make just about any heart smile…and that- is the best gift of all! Isn’t it?

For the past few days, I really wanted to try my hands on a wooden background for my flowers. I was so sure that the bright colors of flowers would surely pop on the wooden background. I grabbed the new embossing folder and textured and inked a few papers. The result was so satisfying that once again could not resist and resulted in two cards for the day.

For the first card, I am focusing on Florals 5. I made some cuts on the edges of the petals to give the flower a different look. The foliage is from Floral Greenery-1 and Floral Foliage-1 . As usual, all the floral and foliage inking is done using Archival inks.

Here is the look of the card if viewed from the top. The sentiment Best Wishes comes from the Everyday Words 2 Die set and the label is cut using Layered Labels 1. The tiny mini filler flowers are from Floral Greenery 1.

Here is the second card for the day!! It’s a slimline card that I created using a Stitched Indented Rectangle Die set. Florals are created using Floral 26 and Florals 4. Foliage is from Floral 6.

Here is the look of the card if viewed from the top. The sentiment Best Wishes comes from the Everyday Words 2 Die set and the label is cut using Layered Labels 1. The tiny mini filler flowers are from Floral Greenery 1.

All the supplies used from Elizabeth Craft Designs are linked to the company’s website for easy access.

Merry Christmas

November 3, 2023

Hello, lovely people!!

Have you all started prepping for the upcoming Christmas season? If not, I have this beautiful card to inspire you to get started. Elizabeth Craft Designs has beautiful Floral 24 for the easy and quick handmade Poinsettias.

To get started, I prepared a grungy looking embossed panel and layered an Stitched Indented Rectangle frame on the right edge of the card front. The basket made using Floral Foliage 1 was quick and easy to make.

The foliage from Floral 24 when cut in gold mirror cardstock added a real festive touch. The green foliage from the Pine Cones die set also enhanced the overall look of the floral bouquet.

The sentiment is stamped from the Seasonal Sentiment stamp set, using black archival ink on white cardstock and cut using a Layered Labels die set.

To add a little more seasonal touch I added lots of white tiny flowers from Floral Greenery 1. All the supplies used from Elizabeth Craft Designs are directly linked to the website for easy shopping.

Rajni Chawla Here!! Back again on Elizabeth Crafts Design blog to inspire you with beautiful bright and sunny Sunflowers from the latest Seasonal Classic Collection. This collection is outstanding and the florals and foliage have taken my heart away. I have been always a big fan of Sunflowers and these are completely exceptional. I have been playing with Floral 26 a lot these days. You can look for more inspiration on my Instagram page here.

For the backdrop, I have created a grungy textured background and prepared a white and gold window to display the handmade flowers. The window is created using the beautiful die from the Book Box die set and Stitched Indented Rectangle die set. The sentiment tag is prepared using the Everyday Elements die set and Layered Labels 1

I have mixed and matched the foliage from various die sets. Like Floral 25, Floral Greenery 1, and Pine Cones

Magic Halloween

September 29, 2023

Hi It is Els here with a new Blogpost. I love Halloween so I decided to make a Halloween card this time. I hope you will enjoy it and give it a try. I will place the images on my blog!

Finished card.

These are all the part you need.

Cut a piece of black paper at 71/2 – 11 and fold in half, your card is then 5 1/2 – 71/2. The striped paper is 51/4-71/4. The purple is 5-7 and I used the edge die to cut it on both sides. I cut a label out of the paper ( the one with the 2023). Distress the edges, and Ink them. Then glue them on top of each other.

Cut Flowers, leaves, and a spiral roll, then shape the flowers, and glue them together, now you can put some stamen in, and I did some copper cream on it to let them shine.

Place the cute scarecrow, and then you can place the flowers.

When you placed all the flowers, you can adhere that cute little wizard and his broom. He can sit on top of the flowers. Place a pumpkin and some black Mica flakes to finish it. I cut the spiral rolls and when you roll them up you make those roses. On my blog I will place the Images I used and the template for the rose.

Hello, Autumn

September 21, 2023

Hello, my crafty friends

Rajni Chawla here from Timeless Creations. Today it’s my turn to inspire you all with Elizabeth Craft Designs’ latest, Seasonal Classics Collection. It is a collection full of awesomeness with lots of flowers, foliage, birdhouse, Christmas fun, and lots more. Again I have 2 cards to inspire you. I have mixed and matched 3 die sets to create these beautiful fall cards.

Here is my first card.

I don’t know why, but I am addicted to using some frame or the other and use it as a backdrop for most of all the floral bouquets that I make for my handmade cards. And I love them for sure. This time I used the Stitched Indented Rectangle die set to create the slimline frame to showcase this beautiful fall wreath on the card front. I simply joined two die cuts by overlapping them and hid that under the wreath which I created using a die cut from the Fitted Circle die Set.

The circle die cut is inked using Wild Honey Distress ink and the sentiment stamped is from Seasonal Sentiments. The foliage used is from Floral Greenery 1 and Floral Foliage 1. I have used archival inks to color all the leaves.

The beautiful Sunflowers are created using Floral 26 and the wreath is made using Floral Foliage 1.

The tiny white filler is from Floral Minis. Make a slit between flower petals, glue, and overlap one petal to make it 5 or 4 petal flowers as per your choice…… that’s simple!!

Here are some more pictures showing the detailing on the flower petals and foliage. It really made the flowers look more lively.

Here is my second card for inspiration….similar supplies were used but quite a different look. I loved this one too.

The background is distressed in ombre and embossed using an embossing folder. I have used the largest of the Stitched Indented Rectangles to create the window. The birdhouse and the bucket are created using Floral Foliage 1.

List of supplies used from Elizabeth Craft Designs:

Sweet Hydrangeas

September 7, 2023

Hello, my sweet friends!!

Today I am showcasing another beautiful floral die set from Elizabeth Craft Designs. My card today is inspired by a card that I saw on Pinterest long long back. It was something I always wished to create but couldn’t try due to some reason or the other. Thanks to the ECD Florals 2 die set which enabled me to try my hands on these beautiful Hydrangeas. The foliage used is from the same die set.

Here is the top angle of the card.

Since, I wanted to highlight the florals, I kept the card base simple and easy. Once again, the Stitched Indented Rectangle die set was on rescue. I used the largest 2 dies to create the frame. The center window was created using a decorative die from the Book Box die set.

I wanted to add a little shine and glitter to the florals, so I applied a thin coat of crystal lacquer and sprinkled glitter dust.

Here are a few more close-up shots of the floral bouquet. The sentiment is stamped with blue archival ink and is from the With Love Sentiment stamp. Beautiful hand-cut butterflies adorn and complete the card.

If you like to learn how I created these Hydrangeas, drop by my Instagram and keep an eye on the free Live Tutorial for the same which I will be announcing soon.

Here is the complete list of supplies used in the above projects. All the supplies used from Elizabeth Crafts Designs are linked directly for easy purchases.

Step And Smell The Flowers

August 18, 2023

Hello, craft buddies,

Welcome to my blog. I am back again with another beautiful inspiration using Elizabeth Craft Design supplies. Today I am focussing mainly on the floral dies. I have 2 beautiful sunshine floral cards to share using Elizabeth Crafts Florals 10 and Floral 5.

I have created backgrounds matching to the florals. In both cards, I have added textures to the backgrounds by using embossing folders from my stash.

For my first card, I distress the panel in ombre in the tones of yellows to match my florals. Yellow flowers made using the Floral 10 die set and white daisies made using the Floral 5 die set are combined to create a beautiful floral bouquet for the card. The foliage used is made using Elegant Leaves die set. A frame is cut in white using Stitched Indented Rectangle die set.

Here are a few close-up shots of the floral bouquet. The sentiment is stamped with black using black archival ink and is from With Love Sentiment stamp set.

Here is my second card for the day!!

For this card, I kept the background panel white and embossed with 3 D embossing folder. The floral supplies are all the same as in the first card. To bring a little change, I have distressed the pannel in Ombre and nested Stitched Indented Rectangle die with Stitched Ovals die set to create a beautiful backdrop. The oval die cut was further embossed and framed with a white frame and the double layered, upside down as shown.

The sentiment Bloom comes from Smell the Flowers stamp set and sits beautifully on the tag from Book Box die set.

Hugs and Kisses Card and Bon Bon Boxes

August 4, 2023

Good day, my dear friends!!

Once again it”s Rajni Chawla, here to inspire you all with Elizabeth Craft Designs. For today’s inspiration, I have a beautiful card and 2 coordinating treat boxes. In my projects, I am showcasing a great variety of dies from Elizabeth Craft Designs like Indented frame dies, floral dies, foliage dies and box dies.

The double-layered frame was cut using Stitched Indented Rectangle die set to display the floral bouquet which I created using Florals 5. The beautiful white daisies turned out so beautiful and elegant.

The foliage added in the backdrop was created using Elegant Leaves 1. The leaves were cut using floral paper, inked using Archival inks in shades of green, and shaped using a stylus.

For the flower centers, I have used locally bought tiny seed beads, using Glossy Accent.

The sentiment comes from With Love Sentiments stamp set. It was stamped on the banner which I cut using a banner die from Book Box die set. The pattern paper used is from my stash and the bird is fussy cut from the paper.

Now comes, the cute Bon Bon box that I coordinated with the cards. The Bon Bon Box Large die creates a beautiful easy to assemble box with a perfect size for treats. I loved it so much that I created 2 boxes. One for the cookies and the other for the sweets.

I decorated one box with the bow and the other box using a bow and the leftover daisies and hung tags threaded with some beads from the stash.

Supplies from Elizabeth Craft Designs:

  • Florals 5
  • pattern Paper from my stash
  • Leaf Green, Olive Green, and Black Archival Inks
