Two Grad Cards with Spellbinders Small Die of the Month Club…

Hi cardmakers and friends!  Some fun cards that came together fast.  I was so glad the club kit has birthday and graduation sentiment banners!

A2 size cardbase with a panel on top… die cut all the parts…you even get the cloud dies in the set!  It’s such a good deal for $15!  You can purchase later but the price is $27!

Sign up for the club is happening HERE for a few more days!

One of our grandsons when he was a toddler loved lining up his airplanes like a lot of boys line up cars!  So cute! Now he loves fishing, playing the piano and drums….and swimming and and and! lol  Airplanes always make me remember this about him.

The dies in this kit make lines to follow where the pieces go!  THAT is so great!  Helpful!  Speeds it up!

The words in the banners are such a neat look!

I used my favorite double sided mounting tape to adhere the die cuts to the card.  The clouds are glued flat.

I had a lot of pictures for this first card… second card I only have two. So keep scrolling! lol

Basically the same thing only Slimline size…matte gold and matte silver scrap pieces for the airplane.

I love the clean and simple approach with the dark medium blue sky! So fun!

My daughters needed 7 grad cards so these 2 will go with 5 others I made for them. So fun!  I love it when I get to use my supplies!

Thank you so much for stopping by and before you go I better tell you about the SALE Spellbinders has going on! Some wonderful products to choose from!   So glad we can order online since Hobby Lobby quit carrying them.

Have a good rest of the week!

Spellbinders May Large Die and 3D Embossing Folder of the Month Clubs…

Hi everyone!  Time to introduce new clubs over at Spellbinders papercrafts!  It’s all about birthdays this time and boy they come around faster and faster these days! haha

A really fun 3D embossing folder that my photos don’t do it justice!  Getting used to a season change and light with photos again.

The die set has so many dies! You can make the banner as many levels as you want!  I was thinking the banner would be great for graduation cards too! Glossy Black!  Gold!  Silver! Besides the Happy Birthday To You words, there’s Wishes, Enclosed and Sending.  FUN!

Then there’s balloons and flowers!  Both would be great for any occasion and in any colors!

Also a great way to use up scraps! My card is an A7 size but would easy work for A2 or A6 also!

I’m getting excited about making grad cards now that I’m thinking and talking about it.  You could personalize it with alphabet dies or stamps with the name and year too!

To find out about Spellbinders Monthly Clubs, click/tap over to their website HERE.  It’s really easy and such a good deal! Links below to the clubs I used today.

thank you so much for stopping by!

Platform Pop Up Hat’s Off To YOU Card…

Hi everyone!  It’s a happy time of year for so many kids! I made several grad congrats cards but this is the only one I took pictures of.

I used the popular Lawn Fawn Platform Pop up die set!  I have made so many of these already!  It’s so fun and easy too!

I used an older Avery Elle stamp and die set for the images and the congrats, graduate strip is from Taylored Expressions. I’ll link to a newer version of the images below.

Super fun images… I didn’t think to get a picture of it flat.  It fit into an A6 envelope.

Because I used Copic Sketch Markers to color, I die cut an extra piece of white cardstock to put on the back of the images to cover up the coloring.  It worked great for the hats because then I could sandwich the acetate strips inbetween the colored hat and the plain hat die cuts.

Here’s the back… I used a two tone 12×12 bo bunny 65# cardstock for the base and the add on backdrop.  The colors are kinda weird in the pictures but they matched much better IRL!

I stamped the sentiments from the set with Ranger Archival Black ink.

Thank you so much for stopping in today! I’m off to make some more flower cards!

Waffleflower Tumble On Spinner Card…

Today I’m sharing one of the birthday cards I made for our oldest granddaughter Atalyssa, aka Attie.  She is an amazing gymnast so I had to use this new at the time Tumble on set from Waffleflower.  Sooo fun!

This party was for five of our grandkids and Lizzie, who’s birthday is the day before Attie’s planned a Masquerade party.  It was so much crazy fun!  😀

Here’s Attie making her card spin…

Fortunately she was able to get a few competitions in this year and we’re so proud of her!  All around 2nd place at this one.  YAY Attie! (she’s the girl that looks like she’s behind the number one block)

Here’s the card sliding by itself.  There was a gal on Instagram that shared her card for Waffleflower and I basically copied her.

I stamped, die cut, colored and paper pieced her leo with black glitter cardstock.

I gave her a wood floor and brick wall because of the gym she goes to.

Thanks for stopping by to see this cutie in action!

Reverse Confetti ‘fetti friend for January/February and it’s Countdown to Confetti Day One…


Hi everyone!  I didn’t realize how appropriate this card would be for my news today! The WOW. JUST WOW. part anyway! lol I was asked to be a guest for Reverse Confetti during January and February!  A super fun way to start the new year!

My first card is using one of the new stamp sets, omg and one of the dies from the new hearts confetti cuts. Swoon, I love this stripe heart! What else can I tuck in there?! ❤

I had fun heat embossing the sentiments in white on black cardstock (don’t they look like real dymo labels), then stapling them with the tiny attacher onto the die cut panel.

I ended up with a 5 ½ inch square card.

The small red hearts are dies from Heart Tag Toppers Confetti Cuts. ❤

My next card uses another new stamp set all the love and the coordinating die set, all the love confetti cuts.

You know I love hearts!  Yes my blog name… ❤  And by the way, in case you haven’t noticed, I did upgrade over the Christmas break to expressions with heart.com!  yay!  So you shouldn’t see any ads other than the ones I put on here to the ‘good’ stuff! hehe

You have to love the ‘confetti’ hearts I made with the new oh my heart cover panel confetti cuts die!  So colorful and sure to make the receiver smile!

I didn’t get all my wood slices used for Christmas!  That worked out great for me to have one ready to stamp and heat emboss with white powder with a couple of the other sentiments from the all the love set!  So fun to add to a gift for Valentines or hey, you don’t even have to have a reason to give!

Another close up of just the wood slice…

Thank you so much for stopping by…but wait!  There’s tons more for you to see today from the other ‘fetti friend and the regular design team!  Here’s the list and you’ll want to comment because there’s prizes involved! ❤  A $15 gift certificate to a blog commenter and a $15 gift certificate to a facebook commenter!  Comments will close at noon CST January 7th. The comment winners will be announced on the RC blog and FB page at 5 pm CST January 7th!

See you again tomorrow and Tuesday for more sneak peeks, then Wednesday the 8th for RELEASE DAY and blog hop!

Lawn Fawn Magic Picture Changer Congrats Card…

Oh happy day!  I had so much fun making this card and “I LOVE it so much” as Kelly Marie from Lawn Fawn says in her wonderful videos! I love Lawn Fawn so much! lol  Kelly Marie has an awesome video tutorial on the process to making this Magic Picture Changer card HERE.  If I can do it, anyone can do it! hehe

See the tab with the arrow?  Pull that up and the picture changes!

Ta Da is right!  I am so happy with how this turned out.  This card was for our oldest grandson.  We’re so happy for him and the job he landed but he has to move!  So happy and sad tears to say the least!

Here’s a flat view of the main window and then below, the changed view…

To see the inside, you’ll have to watch this super short 11 second video.  I die cut a folder check holder, from an Accucut die and taped it inside with another sentiment.

Click the words ‘You Tube’ if you want to watch it larger.  😀

 

All our best wishes, thoughts and prayers go with Ethan as he embarks on this new change/journey!
