November Die of the Month

 

My projects today are a 3D Alarm Clock in gold and Ivory and a flat 

card in the same colors.

It makes such an elegant card to give someone special!

The 3D card folds flat so that sending through the mail is easy.

Amazing You!

 Good morning crafty friends!

Amazingly, my daughter's birthday is today so in case she looks in on my blog post today, Happy Birthday Kelly!

I've created this slimline card today with my daughter in mind.  It isn't a birthday card, but it is an encouragement card just for her because she IS amazing!

Some special details include white and silver lace, white ribbon and pretty white pearls in 

stiff line.

I don't know if you can see it but I splattered white paint on the blue wood background paper to start.

The words and decorative die are cut from white and silver.

The leaves are just silver.

Flowers are white and edged with silver Foundry Wax.  I added silver stamen to the centers. 

S4-1199 Half Slimline Bracket, S4-1203 You're Amazing, S6-175 Hemstitch Slimline, 

S5-436 Grand Cinch and Go Flowers

Other products:

Foundry Wax-Statue, silver stamen, silver Paper, white cardstock, pearls on acrylic line, lace with silver, silver shimmer spray, decorative paper from Elizabeth Craft, white cord, foam sheet.

Retro Camera Pocket Card

Good morning crafty friends!

Instead of the 3D Vignette I've made a card with a "camera" pocket.  I could include any number of photos in my pocket, I can think of a lot of reasons to give a card like this.

A thank you for a wonderful time, A wish you were here, after a family reunion with family photos,

after a wedding with photos of the bride and groom, you name it!

I used Amazing Paper Grace dies: 3D Vignette Twin Lens Camera S6-196, 

Eyelet Lace Frame S6-184, Nestabilies Hemstitch Rectangles

This card will be used for encouragement, that is why I used the "Focus On The Positive" words cut out on the first pull-out card.

I hope you like this variation of the 3D Vignette Die set.

Thanks for visiting today!

Santa's Coming!

 

Good morning friends!

Today I've used the new All Hearts Come Home (S5-534) from the Christmas Flourish Collection.

I decided to make the top shaped then made the top from white and inserted to finish the top.

I cut the front a couple times from white then cut pieces from gold for the packages

and to insert into hearts and house frame pieces.  For the windows I just added yellow 

paper to the back of the die cut house.

I used a corner rounder for the bottom corners.

To finish, I die cut the Christmas from gold and from white.

Thanks for visiting today!

Joy

 

I love making Christmas cards! 

I love the colors, the festive season and the general beauty!

Today I've made an easel card and a treat box.

Treat boxes are always fun to receive or to make and give

for table settings as favors.  Table favors is what I intend to do for my Christmas Tea. 

 

Today's projects created were used with dies provided by Amazing Paper Grace.

My Projects for Today 

uses:

S5-532 Joy Flourish Doily

and SES-046 Holly Flourish 2D Embossing Folder

The treat box

Easel Card

One tip I can give is to die cut the card first before embossing because if you emboss first it tends to really flatten out when put back through the machine with the die cutting.  You really defeat the purpose of embossing if you then flatten the card panel.

The Christmas Flourishes Availability:

These dies and plates are available from Spellbinders right now! Click here: The Christmas Flourishes Collection.

Supplies:
The Christmas Flourishes Collection - I've used S5-532 Joy Flourish Doily, S4-960 Cinch and Go Poinsettias, SES-046 Holly Flourish Embossing Folder, and S4-1165 Romantic Slimline Borders for the gift box handle.

Other supplies:

Gold mirror cardstock, Ivory cardstock, red cardstock, green cardstock, Diamond Stickles, Crystal Stickles, gold stamen
