Boo!

Hello my crafty peeps!  It is time for the Karen Burniston August Designers Challenge. This month, the theme is "House". We were challenged to make a card using either the new House Pivot Panels die of the House & Fence die.

For my card, I used the House from the House & Fence die on the front of my card. I created the night sky using Distress Inks and added die cuts made from the Halloween scene and the Halloween Elements die sets.

On the inside of my card, I used the new House Pivot Panels die set. I have also added the Happy Halloween sentiment from the  die set. I have layered it on the Ovals Crosshatch dies.

Get Well Soon

Hello my crafty peeps!

Today I am sharing a card using dies from the soon to be released dies from KB Riley.


This card is a standard A2 card. I used the Frame Pull Pop-Up die for this card adhered to a panel cut with the Crosshatch- Rectangles die. I used the Get Well Soon sentiment as well, cut from two colors of cardstock and layered for a shadow effect. 

Once the tab is pulled, the frame lifts up to reveal a fun image. I made this card for a friend's son who just had knee surgery. Hopefully, this will give him a chuckle.

When there card is opened, I have used the Crosshatch-Rectangles for an area to write get well wishes.

Sneak Peeks of a new release!

Hello my crafty peeps!  I am so excited to start sharing sneak peeks up the up coming KB Riley release.

Make sure to check out Karen's post for all of the details on the release. Here is a photo of the soon to be released dies.

For my card today, I am using the new Merry Christmas die with my Tag Book Pop Up die. I have also added gingerbread men from the Winter Charms and trees from the new Evergreen Pivot Panel die.

    On the inside, you can see I used the House Pivot Panels die. What is fantastic about this die, is that it can be used three different ways. Here, I am using it in the Tag Book Pop up die, which is one of the ways that it can be used. I have also added wreaths using the House and Fence Pop Up die.

Anything is possible ...

Hello my crafty peeps!  It is time for the Karen Burniston August Designers Challenge. This month, the theme is "Charmed". We were challenged to make a card using any of the Charm dies.

For my card, I used the Tag Book Pop-Up Die. The patterned paper was made using the Coffee Cup Clear Set from Prickley Pear Rubber Stamps. I have added some rectangles from the Crosshatch-Rectangles die set. The coffee cup is from the Coffee Charms die set. I have also added a sentiment using the Words 4 die set.

 

Here is the card opened up. I have added additional stamped patterned paper from the stamp set used on the front of the card. I have also included more elements from the Coffee Charms die set. The sentiment is a stamp from Riley and Company and I have added die cut coffee beans from the Coffee Cup Pop Up die set.

More Collaboration Fun

Hello my crafty friends!

I am posting another card for the KB Riley/Darkroom Door collaboration. For this card, I went with a simple card. I used the French Script Texture stamp from Darkroom Door Stamps. I heat embossed in clear and that went over the with Distress Inks. I cut my panel out using the Crosshatch-Rectangles die. The sentiment is using the Happily Ever After die. I cut the sentiment three times and layered them together for added dimension. I also cut the heart out of glitter cardstock to make it pop.
