Elizabeth Craft Designs

Hello my friends!
I think this is a precious card for a new mom, friend or any occasion.  It is a shaped tent fold card but the front is just a slimline flap basically.

For this card I used Cherry Blossoms and the sets found below.
Thanks for visiting today!

Elizabeth Crraft Design for Birthdays

Hello Crafty Friends!
How about and easel card today?

Tulips abound on this decorative card. 
Done in light and medium coral colors with touches of gold.


To make an easel card you just make a full card with top edge of the die hanging OFF
the top fold, and you also need a full card front to decorate.
Card base is scored in the center (Top fold) and then also scored on the right half at the center point.
Fold last scored 1/4 card up then glue the card front to just that 1/4, making sure all edges 
line up when the card is closed.

Thank you for visiting today.

Elizabeth Craft Designs Round Easel Card

Hello crafty friends!
I've finally gotten around to making a round easel
card with the beautiful Joyous Ornament.




Closed


I built up the sentiment so that it acts like a stop to hold up the front (an easel).
I added rhinestones to the ornate die cut pattern.
The flowers are cut from the Soft Finish Cardstock then colored with Oxide inks for smooth coloring, I did leave some parts lighter on purpose.
I sponged the edges with a light tan.


The centers are filled with gold microbeads.

Thanks for visiting today!

Holiday Ornaments Debut

 Good morning crafty friends!





Card size:  5 X 6 3/4"

Make a decorative shaped card following the instructions in Emma Lou’s video here (How to Create Decorative Shaped Cards for All Occasions (heartfeltcreations.us)

Cut a front using the same outer die of the Royal Elegance Frames from lavender decorative paper (the paper used for this sample is from the Iris Garden Collection).  Also, cut an oval from the Royal Elegance set from the same lavender paper, and set it aside. Glue the lavender card front to the shaped card matching edges.

Cut the decorative frame and decorative oval from white and from silver cardstock, use the oval to cut the center from the decorative silver oval die cut, and glue each set together slightly off-set.  Glue the lavender oval to the decorative oval set, add foam to the underside then set aside.

Use foam strips to adhere the silver and white frame to the card front then adhere the decorative oval stack on top, centered.

Stamp poinsettias on Deluxe Flower Shaping Cardstock using silver ink (you can choose to emboss if you don’t mind getting some embossing in the mold). Shape flowers and holly in mold then finish on a mat using the Deluxe Flower Shaping Kit. Insert pearl silver stamen and glitter petals. Add flowers and leaves to the card from the top left and bottom right and insert some beaded silver stamen into the arrangements.

Stamp the ornaments using black, die cut, add silver sparkle pen, add glitter, punch 1/8” holes to insert some silver thread at the tops.  Glue and/or pop-up ornaments to center lavender oval.

Stamp sentiment using VersaMark then emboss with silver and heat set.  Die cut then add to card at the bottom of ornaments.

Add lacquer to ornaments and holly leaves as desired.

My next card is a shaped easel card.


Card size:  6 X 6

Make a shaped Simple Centerpiece card base (see video: How to Create Shaped Elegant Centerpiece Cards the EZ Way (heartfeltcreations.us)  Score the front of the card at its center to parallel the center of the card fold, fold downward toward the card center.  Cut another front for the card from white cardstock and also from plaid decorative paper times 2 (1 for the inside card).  Add glue to the bottom half of the card base front then glue the new card front to the base making sure all sides are matched, this forms your easel.  Glue 1 plaid die cut onto the front. Glue the other plaid piece to the inside of the card (be sure to avoid the score line for a good fold).

Use 2 Centerpiece dies together to create gold frames or borders. Two sizes for the front (6” and 4” by 1/2” thickness each) and 3 sizes for the inside (5 3/8”, 4”, and 2 1/2" by 1/2" thickness).  For the card front, glue the outside gold border to the card then pop up the inner gold frame.  Glue a piece of red decorative paper to the inside of the frame.  Inside the card, glue both of the larger gold borders down and add a red center to the smaller die border.

Stamp the sentiment using Vermillion onto white, die cut to fit the smallest gold frame/border then glue it to the gold.  Pop up the sentiment/border to the lower part of the card inside to act like a stop for the easel. Glitter front and inside of the card.

Stamp ornaments using embossing ink of choice (VersaMark used here).  Sprinkle with gold powder then heat to emboss.  Color ornaments with green and red then add gold glitter pen to ornaments.  Glue and/or pop-up ornaments to center red. Add gold thread to ornament tops.

Stamp greenery using Library Green on green decorative paper, die cut then add to card front on top of ornaments, red stamen, and gold ribbon. Save 1 piece of greenery for the inside of the card.

Stamp poinsettia using Vermillion on Deluxe Flower Shaping Paper, sponge with Carnation Red, die cut, form in shaping mold then glue 2 together to form a flower.  Insert gold stamen.  Glue flower, red stamen, greenery, and gold ribbon to the inside raised sentiment on the left side.  Glitter flower.

Wonderful Christmas Window Card

 Hello Friends!





Card size:  5 X 6 7/8”

Make a shaped card with the outer die of the Simply Classic Rectangle Frame (see video: How to Create Decorative Shaped Cards for All Occasions (heartfeltcreations.us) Cut another front from the decorative stripe and decorative light blue papers.  Use the Decorative Frame in the die set to cut out the light blue piece.  Glue the stripe to the card front then cut a white and a gold decorative frame with the same die. Glue the white and gold together slightly offset then glue to the card. Glue the blue paper inside the frame.

Use the curved edge rectangle to cut away the card front center making a window to the inside.  Use the light blue scrap to cut the smaller center rectangle then glue it to the center of the window (inside card). Use the smaller decorative rectangle die to cut out a white and a gold frame for the center around blue. Glue them together off-set then glue to the inside of the card around the blue center rectangle.

Stamp birds (3 different birds, 1 with poinsettia) and 2 pomegranates using black ink, die cut then cut away greenery from 2 smaller birds and color all.  Round the backs of birds and pomegranates slightly then add foam to the backs.

Add small birds to the pomegranates then glue to the window frame's left top and right bottom corners.  Glue the poinsettia bird to the inside right.

Stamp sentiment using Vermillion, die cut, then pop up on the inside of the card left of the poinsettia bird.

Use Stickles or other glitter to make the greenery and pomegranates sparkle. Use Nuvo on tiny filler.

Amazing Day!

Hello friends!

I used one of my favorite flowers on this card, the lily.  Not only a Heartfelt favorite but real life favorite as well!  They have the sweetest scent.





Card size:  4 X 9”

Fold 8 X 9 1/4” white cardstock to measure 4 X 9” then place the Slim Elegant Rectangle outer die over edge of fold by about 3/8” so that fold does not cut through completely. Cut another card front from Fuchsia decorative paper then glue it to base matching sides and bottom edges.

Cut Decorative outer part of die from white and from gold, glue together slightly off-set then glue to card front, centering.  Use this die again to cut a lighter pink decorative paper for the inside of gold and white decorative frame. Glue to card.

Cut 2 layers of the slim Elegant Rectangle inner parts, 1 from gold and a slightly smaller one from white then glue together and pop up to center of card.

Stamp Have An Amazing Day on white using Vibrant Fuchsia, die cut then die cut a gold layer, glue together slightly off-set then glue to the center of the card front.

Stamp lilies using Sunflower ink on Deluxe Flower Shaping Paper, die cut, sponge edges then use a yellow chalk pencil (or other pencil) to fill in lily center and stripe on petals, rub out slightly (if using chalk).  Form in the mold, glue 2 blossoms together for each flower, use 1 for the bud, stamping side out). Punch a small pointy flower to use as sepal for the bud, Use Golf Groove Tool to pierce centers and to further form lilies.  Insert stamen, 3 for each flower (yellow used for this sample).  Glitter petals.

Stamp leaves using Fern Green, sponge with Leaf Green, die cut then form in the mold, Lacquer leaves using 3D Lacquer and shimmer additive (optional).  Arrange leaves and flowers on the left side of sentiment.

Stamp small butterfly using embossing ink on vellum then heat emboss with gold powder, die cut then add a thin layer of Diamond Stickles to the wings.  Put pop up under body only and adhere to card on the right side.

Glitter card as desired, add white pearls to decorate decorative gold and white Slim Elegant Rectangle frame.

 I've been noticing over the years how TV programing has become more and more anti-God, anti-Biblical principles, haven't you?  Those people want everyone to be as hopeless as they are...why they really care what I believe, I haven't figured that out yet.  So that, with the bombardment of news, it has become easier for people to lose hope in their life. 

I have hope in my life because my hope is based entirely on Jesus.  He is my solid ground, my compass. How can I not have hope when He says that He has redeemed us.  I have seen the miracle in my life of new life and many times He has come to my rescue in circumstances or when I'm afraid or in pain. I know He is who He says He is and that He really did die for me and rose from the grave with victory...how can I not have hope.   
Hebrews11:1 Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. For by it the people of old received their commendation. By faith we understand that the universe was created by the word of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things that are visible.

He says He has a place for me so when this short physical life is over I know where I'll spend eternity. John 14:1-3.

For peace and for hope, turn off the TV for a while and read God's word, the Bible.

Happy Birthday!

 Hello Heartfelt friends!



I just love these vellum cards!  They look so lacey and pretty.

It seems perfect to me to put beautiful Irises on this lacey looking card.
I think a lot of very small flowers would work really well too!


Card size:  4 3/4" X 6 3/4"

Using Heavy weight Vellum, make a shaped card with the outer die of the Elaborate Oval Frames.  Start by folding a piece of vellum to be at least 5 X 7” then place the die over-lapping the fold by about 1/4". Cut another front from vellum using the same die and set aside.

Cut the decorative die of the Elaborate Oval from white, glue it to the vellum front.  Put glue on the front piece only where you see the white decorative die so that it does not show when glued to the card base.

Die cut the smaller decorative die from white, glue to the card front.  Stamp the sentiment using Deep Purple on vellum then cut with the smallest oval, glue it inside the smaller decorative white die cut.

Glitter the card front.

Stamp Iris flower on Deluxe Flower Shaping Paper 3 times per color (Cactus Flower and Deep Purple) for each flower. Sponge stamping color along with yellow on each petal.  Cut 1 double petal in half so that top has 3 petals and bottom has 3 petals, (3 petals makes it easier to glue flat to the card vs 4 petals top and bottom). Use hot glue to adhere top to bottom of each Iris.  Glue stems to flowers in back.  Fill flower beards with Flower Soft.

Stamp leaves on Deluxe Flower Shaping Paper using Fern Green, sponge with Leaf Green, die cut then shape. Glue 2 leaves to the stems then glue flowers and stems to card on left side around sentiment. Glitter edges of petals only.

My next card uses the cute little birds and iris garden images 
to create a little (A2 size) Z-Fold card.



Card size:  4 1/4" X 5 1/2"

Score white cardstock at 2 1/8” and 4 1/4" then fold into a Z-Fold card.  Cut 3 pieces of light blue decorative paper to fit, 1 for each panel, leaving a slight white border.

Cut several layers of grass border from green decorative paper, set aside.

Stamp all images using London Fog Memento, die cut each then color with alcohol inks.  Stamp sentiment using Cactus Flower Ink, die cut with circle, die cut frame with slightly larger circle from Raspberry color cardstock.  Cut Delicate Daisy corner from white.

Open card flat then glue Daisy Corner to right top corner of card.  Glue sentiment to center panel top. Glue bird house and fence to left panel.  Glue 1 bird to birdhouse, glue other bird to fence top.  Glue grass borders in layers leaving all grass tops open (so that you can stick flower stems into grass layers).

Arrange how you want flowers then glue to card.  Glitter card.
