The Greeting Farm – March Preview Day 4

Posted in The Greeting Farm by

We have reached the final day of previews for The Greeting Farm, that means all the things will be available on the 15th (Sunday).

Today we have a Congrats die, I love the big scripty word dies that The Greeting Farm releases. This month instead of doing my typical Eclipse Technique, I layered the die cuts creating a drop shadow.

I then pulled out a piece of vellum with cold dots on it and put it on a kraft card base. Adding my die cut to the front of the card really finished this one off!

The Greeting Farm January 2020 – preview day 2

Posted in Distress Oxide, The Greeting Farm by

For day 2 of The Greeting Farm previews, we are previewing the Love You die! I paired it up with Greateful for You stamp set!

I embossed the florals from the Grateful for You stamp set in white embossing powder on hotpress watercolor paper. Adding a few layers of distress oxide “squishing it with water” technique, I don’t know what to call it… wait its smooshhing right, something like that.

After that was dry, I took a black pencil and traced the embossing under neath and to the right to make it look as though the flowers are actually popped up when they are flat!

I then cut the Love You sentiment out of the panel and 4 more times out of white layering those up to create an eclipse card.

Hey everyone, Jessie here with my latest LDRS Creative project. I coloured up Saturated Canary Pattern Love with coloured pencils (and I filmed it and you can find that video on the LDRS Creative Youtube Channel).

I used some scrap shabby papers (one day I will get this paper all used up) a nice big white bow, behind the image I layered a couple of cuts from the Gilded Oval Die set.

Hey everyone! Today I have my second project for Diemond dies! I coloured up this lovely image Love you slow much from Wee Stamps , you can also get it in rubber here, with my copic markers.

Diemond Dies 2b

I used the Diemond Dies Labels 2 Top Note Nesting dies behind my image (I cut it in half so it peeks out the top and the bottom), and the Diemond Dies Nature Flourish die inbehind my flower cluster (I find this die so versatile you can use it anywhere)!

October full of Christmas…

Posted in October 2014 Christmas series by

Hey everyone, welcome to the month of October, this month is all about Christmas on my blog. Not only Christmas but out electronic die cutters as well. I know many of us that have these machines in our stash, some of us use them faithfully. Others, like myself, don’t use them nearly enough. So myself, with the help of some of my friends, hope to inspire you to get those Christmas cards made, and those machines uncovered, dusted and let them cut like crazy for you.

Here we go, I personally use a Silhouette Cameo, so all the cut files for my first card this month come directly from the silhouette store. I started with the circle card file cutting it in white, I then found a pretty layered snowflake and cut that so it just slightly over hung on the card base. Continuing working that machine hard I found a fun little ornament to use, and a pretty bow to top the ornament off. the banner is a layered banner where I stamped a very simple merry christmas sentiment that is from a Hero arts set ( CL343).

As much as this card looks full and layered it really did come together quickly, no inking, minimal stamping, just later all the pieces togehter and adhere them to the card.

Well here it is! I love this card! The layout is based on the bi-weekly challenge over at the Scrapadabadoo Facebook Page.

I used a fun little image Pollycraft Breeze Rubber Stamp from CC Designs, she is coloured with my Copic Markers. All the patterned paper used in this card is from Bo-Bunny Lemonade Stand 6×6 paper pad.

The backround paper is made using my Peerless Watercolours.  The banner is made with the EK Success Mini Pennant Punch Set .

The little doilies on here are so cute, I love that die! The Cottage Cutz Mini Doily Die (there is one left in stock on the garage sale at Scrapadabadoo at the time of writing this blog post for $2!)

The enamel dots I used were from Prima, and are now sold out but there are lots of different ones in the store like these from Teresa Collins that would work wonderfully.

Yet to come..

More watercolour, yes it has become an obsession. What can I say when I love something I kinda run with it.

The best

The lighting in this card isn’t great, and I apologize for that, unfortunately the colour’s coming in through the window just weren’t quite right. Anyway. onto the card, I again used Heidi Swapp colour shine to make this card, Blush, Mint Green, and White are the colours I used. The stamps are from Simon Says Stamp, Love Languages, and Tilted Banner Stamp’s and dies. The Polaroid Frame is a die from The Greeting Farm.

The Best b

The Ink used to stamp the hand image, and the sentiment is Crumb Cake from Stampin up. The white enamel dots are from My Minds Eye, and the others are from Basic Grey.

The Best c

Laces and trims are as usual from my stash, as well as the vellum with the tiny hearts in the back round. I probably bought it all from a garage sale somewhere.

 

Thanks for looking.
