Cherry Green Designs

Hey everyone!
Have you seen the new stamp sets that were released today over at Crafter's Companion USA? Oh my goodnes! The NEW Cherry Green Designs stamp sets are soooooo fun! I made a sample card using the Boot-iful set.


So whatcha think? Super fun I say! I colored the image with Spectrum Noir ColourBlend Pencils, Blending Solution and Paper Blending Stumps. Here's the pencil colors I used:
  • Boots - Mauve, Velvet, Blackberry, Smoke, Black, White 
  • Flowers - Mauve, Velvet, Blackberry, Lemon, Canary, Pumpkin
  • Leaves - Pistachio, Sage, Jade
  • Feather - Pistachio, Jade, Ivy, Emerald, Lemon, Canary, Pumpkin, Nectarine, 


Are you wondering how I got the boot so white on kraft cardstock? Well...all I did was stamp the image on white cardstock, fussy cut the shoe out and paper pieced it to the panel. I also cut out a few of the flowers and leaves to pop up for dimension. 

Check out all the NEW Cherry Green Designs sets HERE.

Happy crafting!

Lattice Corner Dies

Hi everyone. We are counting down the hours to the big 24-hr HSN Craft Event with Crafter's Companion. I have another amazing Corner Die project to share with you. Also on this project I'm using the NEW Sara Davies Signature Glamour Collection. Beautiful crafty goodies indeed!


The corner die I used is the Lattice Corner Die Set. I love how it has the stitched looking accents around the edge. I die cut the 2 corners of a panel of Rose Pearl Shimmering Cardstock, then adhered to a card base.

I want to point out that the card base is a Square Side Step Card Base from the Create-A-Card Fancy Card Blanks Set. I used it completely different than what it was intended. I turned it portrait and backwards -- which made it into pop-up card! Check it out on the inside...


CRAZY COOL...right?!!! What a great way to stretch your supplies!

So back to the front of the card. I die-cut the lattice corner die on 4 corners of a white cardstock panel, then stamped the sentiment and layered on black pearl cardstock. This entire panel is adhered with dimensional foam adhesive on top of the card front, which I had wrapped a ribbon around and tied in a knot.


I made the pink ribbon rosebud  out of the Hot Pink Organza Ribbon from the Sara Glamour Collection.


 Then I stitched it to the black satin bow and adhere to the card.


The inside of the card is all decked out with more of the Glamour Collection dies and embossing folder. I know a few little girls who would love to get this card :)

Corner Dies

Today popping in quick to share a fun way to use the Crafter's Companion Die'sire Classiques Corner Dies.This is another one of the dies that will be available during the HSN Crafty Event July 11th. For this fun project I used the Doily Corner Die. 


This die worked perfectly to jazz up the top of this DIY box/bag. Then I diec-cut another piece from the Rose Pearl Shimmer cardstock to add to the front.. The bird is actually from the new Feathered Friends Create-A-Card die. I just cut it out of and layered on top of black cardstock.


I used the New Spectrum Noir Artliner Brush Marker to write "Love" and mat it on silver glitter luxury cardstock.

The Hot Pink ribbon is new from the Sara Davies Signature Collection called Glamour. It's amazing!

Dont' forget...
Tuesday July 11th is the big 24hr Craft Event on HSN. You will find these corner dies and more.

Custom Box with Create-A-Card Die

Here's another project I made using the new Crafter's Companion Feathered Friends Create-A-Card Die that is coming to HSN on July 11th. These dies are great for making quick custom boxes!


I made the box lid using the Red Luxury Cardstock. Love that stuff! Inside the lid of the box, behind the cut out, I adhered clear acetate.


I lined the bottom of the box with silver mirror luxury cardstock and added a couple die-cut hearts from the silver glitter cardstock.


On the edges of the lid, I added some panels of the silver glitter cardstock and then some decorative tape. I also added silver Stickles Glitter Glue, black rhinestones and black ribbon.

Make sure to watch the HSN show on July 11th to see all the amazing samples using this new Create-A-Card die along with all the other new CAC dies.

Create-A-Card Feathered Friends

Hello friends,

I'm back again today with another Crafter's Companion sneak peek of what's coming July 11th to the big Craft Event on HSN.


I just know these new Create-A-Card dies are gonna sell out fast! They are seriously SO.MUCH.FUN!


For my card base, I used the Gatefold card base from the Crafter's Companion Create-A-Card Fancy Card Blanks set.


On the inside of the card, I die-cut the left section of the die, flipped it over to the right side and die-cut again. These dies are made to work perfectly like that! Awesome, huh!


The die set also comes with the heart die so you can do a bit more decorating.


This new Create-A-Card die set, and many more, will be available July 11th on HSN. Tune in and watch the show to see all the great samples, and to see Sara demonstrate using these dies.

God Bless America

Hey everyone,

Here's a fun patriotic card I created to celebrate 4th of July.


It was one of my first attempts using the NEW Spectrum Noir ArtLiner Pens. I'm pretty happy with how it all turned out.


I made this into a stepper card using stamp sets from Crafter's Companion USA. And what would a 4th of July design be without a bunch of sparkle and shine! Glitter Glitter Glitter!



If you want to get these NEW Spectrum Noir ArtLiner Pens, you are in luck! They will be available from Crafter's Companion USA on Thursday July 6th.

Have a safe and blessed day,

Crafter's Companion is coming to HSN May 9th!

I'm super excited for this next HSN Crafting Event on Tuesday, May 9th!!! Why?

Well...HELLO...Sara Davies and Jennifer Tryon from Crafter's Companion will be there! As if that's not exciting enough...Crafter's Companion has amazing NEW products that will be launched! And....(drum roll)....they are gonna be the "Today's Special" on the show! YAY!!!!!!!!!

Here's a project I made using the Create-A-Card Circle Centre Dies that are part of the bundle for the May 9th HSN Today's Special bundle:


The NEW Die'sire Create-A-Card dies are so much FUN! Wait till you see the show and all the great samples. Sara will demo how they work, so you won't wanna miss the show.

The pic below is more what it looks like all folded up. When the card is folded shut, it measures 5 1/2" square.  I diecut the base of the card using Crafter's Companion Pearl White Shimmering C ardstock. The butterflies are from another die set (which I believe will be on the HSN show as well) are diecut from Black Pearl Shimmering Cardstock, then rubbed with a bit of Silver Gilding Wax. Wait till you see THAT stuff! A must have in your craft stash!


The Circle Centre Die Set comes with a sentiment die that cuts in the center circle, but I cut it apart and just used the "thank you" of it and glued down on the card base. The flower panels are also part of the set, and I cut die-cut them green glitter cardstock. This Luxury Cardstock is also from Crafter's Companion and comes in a variety pack of different finishes in the same color family.


The silver mirror cardstock for the circle frame is also from a pack of Luxury Cardstock. I die-cut 2, adhering 1 on each side to sandwich the string that I put in the middle. That way it not only hides the string ends, but gives a professional finish to both sides. I love how when you open the card, the center circle flips open.

Here's a quick video showing the card in action.



The butterflies on the card base are popped up on dimensional foam adhesive. The butterflies on the string are sandwiched with a dimensional foam adhesive.  I added some matching rhinestones to the center of each butterfly.


Make sure to mark your calendars for Tuesday, May 9th!

Watch the HSN show on your TV or on-line. The 24-hour event will be full of crafting inspiration, ideas, and demonstrations

Until then...


Have a beautiful day!

Little Angel


I adore the new Little Angel Collection from Sara Davies of Crafter's Companion. Did you know this collection is now available? YUP! Check out the collection on the Crafter's Companion USA website.

Here's a project I made


I used several products from the Little Angel Collection to create my card. To start out with, I used the Dotty Clouds Embossing Folder on the front panels of the card.  Then I embossed another piece of white cardstock and cut out a few of the clouds. I covered them with white Fun Flock and then sponged light yellow ink around the bottom areas. The clouds are popped up on the card front with dimensional foam adhesive. I used a few clouds on the inside of the card too.


 I diecut some of the Baby Accessories Dies using papers from the Little Angel paper pad. They are sooo cute! On the inside of the card I adhered panels of patterned paper. The die cut circle frame with Baby sentiment is from the Beautiful Baby Die Set.


The card base was easy to create using Crafter's Companion Create-A-Card Fancy Card Blanks. I did finish the card with some crystal clear sequins. This card really is sooo cute in real life.

Check out our Pinterest Gallery that's full of great ideas using the New Little Angel Signature Collections Products.


Thanks for stopping by today.

Crafter's Companion 11th Birthday Celebration

Hello friends!

I'm just popping in quick to let you know about the FANTASTIC birthday celebration going on right now over at Crafter's Companion USA. This is the time go go shopping!!!

25% OFF and FREE  SHIPPING and FREE GIFTS!


The Die'sire Create-A-Card Base dies worked PERFECTLY to create fun interactive cards by using one of the smaller Create-A-Card dies (Rosie set) on the front of the card to cut a window. Just simply score the uncut edge and you have a hinged "PEEK-A-BOO" window card.


 
What a great card for the celebration...right?!


I used the Bebunni Peek-A-Boo Stamp set to stamp the images. I stamped and did paper piecing for added dimension and interest. The coloring and shading is done with Spectrum Noir Markers - CR3, IG1, BG1, TB9, LV2, DR6, CR7, GBR1, BGR3, Blender. For some sparkle I colored over the balloons, gift tag and ribbon with Clear Spectrum Noir Sparkle Pen.


You can see shop the available sets HERE. Hurry while they are on SALE! :)
