Hi everyone. Here is a close up of the Bakery that was created for the Loaded Envelopes Galore and More Facebook swap you can find here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/LoadedEnvelopeOriginal/. For the month of April I am the Guest Designer for the swap. I created this project for us to swap. Isn't it fun!!!
This box is large enough to use your window dies that you might have in your stash. If you don't have any, I show you in the tutorial how to create the door, steps, roof, and windows. You only need a score board and a paper cutter. It's simple. You decorate as you wish!
This is the backside of the Bakery. It's decorated with pearls and swirls as I was going for a Shabby Chic look for this house.
There are so much themes you can do with this house. I am currently working on a "Coffee Shop" as I intend to fill it with Keurig (K Cups) as a gift presentation. See, isn't that fun!!! You could do a Flower Shop and include flower seeds inside!!!
The letters for the Bakery Sign were done on a Circuit machine. The rolled Roses are a Marianne Creatables die. Thank you so much for stopping by to view my project. I have included the tutorial below. I would love to see your houses. I will be posting pictures of the embellishments that are included in these houses soon. So check back. Until next time, Happy Crafting!!!
Happy Wednesday everybody! Remember my previous post? Yeah, I was saying how Sunflowers was one of my favorite images.....well....what do you think? Isn't this Hydrangea image the bomb? I have used this stamp a few times in the past.....I still love it. But I took it up another notch. The stamp is an old Inkadinkado and the die is Elizabeth Craft Garden Notes.
How awesome is it that these paper hydrangeas are an embellishment? Oh, they were so fun to make. They were created with an Elizabeth Craft Susan's Garden Hydrangea die. They were really easy peasy!
The flower plate was cut out 4 times. Distress inks were used to color the flowers and "Prills" were used for the centers.....just like the stamped image. I love this die and see myself using it again soon.
The stamped image was mounted on a Spellbinders die. The corners are a Marianne die. Thanks so much for stopping by today to check this out. Until next time......Happy Crafting!
Greetings friends. One of my favorite images to craft with are Sunflowers. I have a collection of Sunflower stamps and this is one that I colored with Copic markers quite a while ago. Would you believe that I don't have any cards in my stash for sending to friends and loved ones. For the next several post I will be sharing cards that are an attempt to build up my stash. Pssst.....don't say anything, but I have been working on a couple Christmas items in-between....lol
One of the best purchase I made this last year is a Brother ScanNCut. Oh my, it sure does cut out your stamped images beautifully. These sunflowers were cut from the main image to accent the bottom portion of the easel card. It compliments the main focal point.
The main image is layered with extra sunflowers for depth and a 3D look. It's mounted on a Spellbinders die. The corners are Cheery Lynn and the top scallops are La La Land.
Thank you so much for stopping by today to view this project. This is going in the stash for an upcoming Birthday. Love the bright cheerful colors and the beautiful Sunflowers to send to someone to brighten their special day. Until next time.....Happy Crafting!
Hello Crafters!!! The Scrapbook Expo was in Orlando this past weekend. It's an event that happens once a year and I look forward to going to. While at the Expo I came across the Elizabeth Crafts Designs booth. I fell in love with all the flower dies and just had to have this Daffodil.
There's lots of dimension in these gorgeous flowers. They are easy to make. I used watercolor paper and distress stains and inks to color the flowers.
This was so much fun to create. I have lots of plans in the future for this beautiful die. To create the sparkly effect diamond stickles were painted on the flowers and allowed to dry.
