Welcome Little One

April 4, 2023

Hi everyone, it’s Tina here. I needed a card for a new baby card but found myself with no specific dies or stamps. I looked through my Elizabeth Crafts Design stash and came up with the following. Below are the steps to create your own card.

Step 1 – Trim White Soft Finish Cardstock to 4 1/4″ x 8 1/2″, score at 5 1/2″ and fold in half for a vertical side fold card. (A2)

Step 2 – Trim White Soft Finish Cardstock to 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″. Place Planner Stencil 3 on top of the panel to create some interest. Use a blender Brush to apply ink directly on the stencil.

Step 3 – Diecut Fitted Rectangles using the panel created in Step 2.

Step 4 – Stamp Life Is Better On The Farm Sentiments using Versafine Onyx Black Ink directly on the panel created in Step 2. Adhere to card using Foam Tape.

Step 5 – Diecut Ducks using various colors of cardstock. Assemble and add some highlights using an alcohol marker. I used Copics for some shading. Adhere to card using Kids Choice Glue.

When you lack specific dies and or stamps don’t hesitate to look through your stash. Most likely you have something that will create the card that you need. Below is a link to all the products used. Thank you for stopping by and Happy Crafting!

Floral It’s Your Birthday Mini Slimline Card

May 17, 2022

Hi everyone, it’s Tina here. I just love the Daffodils dies and I wanted to see what other colors they come in. I was amazed there is quite a few. I came across the Riot Daffodil and it is the inspiration for my card. The Riot is a reddish pink center but I chose to do mine in a darker pink. Below you will find the steps to create your own card.

Step 1 – Trim White Soft Finish Cardstock to 7” x 6”, score at 3 1/2” and fold in half for a vertical side fold card. (Mini Slimline)

Step 2 – Trim White Soft Finish Cardstock to 3 1/4” x 5 3/4”. Apply Light Blue Ink to the top of the panel using a Blender Brush and fading out to about 3/4. Adhere to card front using 3mm Clear Double Sided Adhesive Tape.

Step 3 – Diecut Daffodil using White Soft Finish if you will color in all the pieces. If not then use colored cardstock. I chose to color all my pieces in Copic Markers. I used a sticky mat to hold all the pieces including the negative while I colored. Assemble all and adhere to card using Kid’s Choice Glue.

Step 4 – Stamp Life Is Better On The Farm sentiment using Versafine Onyx Black Ink. Diecut the sentiment using Diagonal Stitched Fishtails. Trim of the left side and adhere to card using 3mm Clear Double Sided Adhesive Tape.

This card can be used for many occasions by changing the sentiment. Below is a link to all the products used. Thank you for stopping by and Happy Crafting!
