Weaving

Card inspired by Lynn at Craft Mania

I've used Creative Expressions paper weaving die, poinsettia die also CE, and sentiment was a magazine freebie.

 

For Jackie

Colours are shocking in this pic, in real life they are lilac and purples.

I've used flower dies by Creative Expressions and papers by Crafter's Companion and The Paper Boutique.

 

Christmas

I made a few different versions of these, changing the colours or the sentiments.

The Christmas tree dies are by Creative Expressions, embossing folder is an old one I can't remember the brand.

 

Noel

A fancy fold card using Creative Expressions dies, the middle panel lifts up.

In real life the colours are dark teal and a pearlescent aqua and white

 

Craig

Card I made for my brother. He likes paddle-boarding and is keen to buy a camper van!

Die set is by Cottage Cutz, sentiment is by Creative Expressions

 

Valentine

This year's Valentine's Day card I made for my husband. I used heart (not sure where the embossing folder is from as no name printed on it) and sentiment dies by Creative Expressions, the 3-D heart is a Sizzix die. 

 

Wishing You Well

A Fancy-fold tutorial from Mixed Up Crafts. I've used old SU papers and the sentiment dies are by Card Making Magic. Flower dies are Creative Expressions.

 

Vintage Rose

Die is by Sam Poole for Creative Expressions and is called Shabby Basics Vintage Rose.

I cased this design from Sam's samples. I've used old papers from Trimcraft, and added some Colour Cloud ink, sentiment stamp is PTI.

 

Toucan

This card was heavily inspired by the ideas sheet enclosed with the toucan die (Creative Expressions)

Instead of the background they had shown though I made my own using a green spray ink on plain white card. I then used a leaf stencil (brand unknown, think it was a magazine freebie) with Colour Cloud ink on top of that.

The flower dies are SU and all other dies are Creative Expressions.

Cheers!

Stamp by Woodware, I've added Glossy Accents in places

I've used Creative Expressions Metallic Polish to make the red and green layers. I bought a couple of pots of this without having a clue what to do with it, I'm patiently waiting to see if CE put a video up :)

Forever

'Forever' die is by Papertrey Ink
Bow die is from the Sue Wilson range by Creative Expressions

I thought this might be a nice Mr & Mr card now that gay marriage is legal :)
