Gratefiul for you - Instagram Hop

Hi crafty friends!

I'm  to share with you the card I made for the Instagram hop we are having to  celebrate the new Alex Syberia Designs release: the  "Grateful for you collection".

If you want to see all the inspirations of our talented team and for the chance to win fabulous prizes, visit our IG accounts @nicolettaporcu.design or @alexsyberiadesigns.


Now let me share something about the making process:


I started my project  by cutting two large white paper rectangles and  by applying texture paste on them  through the first layer of the Modern Weave Layering stencil set. Once it was dried I place the second layer and applied texture paste again. Once  the paste was dry, I ink blended one  panel using  a violet Altenew inks and I  glued the second one over a white card base.

At that point  I die cut a rectangle (using a die from the Nested Scalloped Frames die set) on the ink blended  front  panel and foam mounted it onto the card.

Next up I stamped the flower bouquet and the sentiment from the Grateful For You stamp set, on  Neenah paper  and I colored it  using the Grateful For You Stencil  and orange, blue, and violet  inks by Altenew.




Next up I  white heat embossed the flower bouquet from the  Grateful For You stamp set ,  and I die cut it and the stencilled one with the coordinate die.
I glued them onto the card  and lastly I added the sentiment I previously stamped and die cut, and some violet rinesthones.

And that's it!
I hope you like my procjet!
And I remember you there are beautiful prizes to win joining us at  our Instagram Hop --@nicolettaporcu.design  and blog hop.

See you soon!

I'm sure  there's something for everyone to love!

Let me share with you the card I made for the occasion using the Garden of Blooms  stencil set and the coordinate die, and the Bloom die set.


I started by stenciling the "Garden of Blooms stencil set" using the light rose, yellow and green inksaded  applying them in a  very light way on a white cardstock.
Once I finished °I die cut the flowers with the coordinate dies and put them aside.

Next up I die cut the background panel from a White cardstock  using Tiny Flowers Cover die and I glued it on a dark green base card.
I adhered on it a light pink frame  I obteneid using two rectangle dies from the Nested Scalloped Frames die set; I used foam tape to give dimension to the frame.


At that point I added the stencilled flowers over the pink frame and the sentiment.
The Bloom word realised with the Bloom die set, cutting the outlined part in dark green and the top part in many white layers I glued all together to make the word pops.
I made the  little sentiment string using a stamp and the coordinate die from the Grateful for You set.

Merry Christmice

Hi crafty friends!

I'm here, today, sharing with you a new card made thinking about Christmas!

I mixed some products from the latest  Alex Syberia Designs release a with very cute stamp set  from an old release I'm sure  you could appreciate! 

I just enjoy the process playing with some little mice helpers!

This is the card:


To make the card I started by die cutting the background with  the Postage Stamp Cover die, on a Neenah Classic Crest solar white paper and stamping on it the little mice and the ornaments from the Merry Christmice stamp set.

To stamp the scenes I used the masking technique; after everything was stamped and masked I placed over it the Postage Stamp stencil and I ink blended the background' scenes using the Oxide Distress ink Tumbled glass.

 

Next up I peeled off all the masking paper and I colored everything with Copic markers.

Then I added some sentiment and other stamped details from the Merry Christmice stamp set and the Special Delivery stamp set.

 

At that point I made the base card: I die cut a red  cardstock rectangle using the largest die from the Good Day Quilted Rectangles die set and I glued it over a pink base card; 

Next up I added  the Postage Cover die with the colored scened over  the card , using a piece of an  heavy cardstock to add dimension.

 As a last thing I added the pink and red bows  die cuts (Pretty Bows die set) on the top right  and the pink and gold Joy sentiment(Joy die) in centre's card.

That's that for today too!

 

Hope you like this cute gang as I do!

See you soon!

Hi crafty friends!

I'm here , today with a a new colourful  card featuring Alex Syberia Designs products: !

Hope you like it!

To make my card,  as a first thing I die cut the Floral Splendor Cover die  on a white cardstock and I glued it over a white rectangle cardstock;  next up I  die cut all the leaves I needed in rainbow colors and I glued them on the top and on the bottom  of the Floral Splendor Cover die cut.

The leaves dies are from the Leafy Duo die set and the Classic Foliage die set.



I cut out the excess  leaves parts  from the panel and I  added it on a white card base using and heavy cardstock between them to  add dimension.

Then I die cut the big sentiment from the Good Day Quilted Rectangles die set : the outlined part in black and the top one in white in  4 layers I glued all together to make the sentiment pop and I glued it on the card centre,  

As last thing I added some clear dew drops.

And that's that for today too.

Have A Good Day

Hi crafty friends!

Nicoletta here today to share with you a new card I had in mind for a while.

I admired the modern accent of cards with stamped flower images without coloring so I want to tray this technique... I though it was a speedy making process but it takes me more time I expected; but at the end I'm quite happy of the result and hope you like it, too!

To make the card I started from the background : I used the Chevron Chic Cover die ad an embossing folder on a dark green cardstock and I bland all the borders with dark green and black Distress inks; Using a brusk I splashed on it some white acrylic ink and after dried I glued the panel on a black base card.

Next up I stamped  twice the Birthday Bouquet stamp set on X-Press Blending card, using black memento ink.





















I colored the leaves with Copic markers using the follow colors : YG67/YG63/YG61,;after coloring  I die cut them using the coordinate dies 

and I glued them on the bottom part of  embossed green background using foam tape to add dimension and I cut out the excess portions with scissor.

At that  point I prepared the sentiment.

I die cut the "have a good day" big sentiment from the  Good Day Quilted Rectangles die set: I die cut the outlined part in white and the top part in green (5 layers) , I glued them together and then I put the sentiment on the card.

As a last thing I added some white enamel dots and that's it!!!

You could find all products I used on  Alex Syberia Designs shop.

Thank you for reading me!

See you in a week.

Happy Halloween - Interactive Shaker Card

Hi Crafty friends!

Nicoletta here today to share with you my last card as guest designer for Crafty Meraky!

It is been a really pleasure for me to be here, joining with these amazing products and hope you could notice how much fun  I had making this interactive shaker Halloween card.


To make my card as a first thing I stamped all the images from the  "Fangs For Being My Friend"  stamp set on X-Press Blending Card using  black Memento ink.

After coloring all of them with Copic markers and some touch of white gel pen I die cut everything using the coordinate dies and I put them aside.



At that point I started to work on the card's structure.

I die cut a pink rectangle from a patterned paper, I blended the border using the Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide ink and I glued it over a black base card.

Over the pink background I stamped the little sentiment by Spellbinders  and  the little spiderwebs from the"Fangs For Being My Friend" stamp set and then I continued to worked on my interactive shaker card.


I  die cut four black rectangle frames from black cardstock and one  from black foam; I glued the first  three frames  on foam, I covered with a transparent acetate and over I glued the last black frame.

Next up I added in  the back  the interactive spiders I previously stamped, colored and die cut. I simply attached them on a transparent Nylon thread  fixing it  on the back of the frame ,

I continued by adding all the sequins and beads  and gluing the base card over the shaker frame.

Next up glued over my shaker card a black branch frame I found in my stash, probably from a crafty swap, and at that point I had only to compose the scene by adding all the images I previously prepared.

As a last touch I added  all  over the brach frame some set of eye with mobile pupils and over the acetate cover, the Boo sentiment  using biggest eyes whit mobile pupils as letter "o"

And that's that!

I really hope you enjoyed your time reading me

Thank you so much Crafty Meraky for having me!

Let me say something about the making process, as always.

Next up I die cut the background using the smallest rectangle from the Good Day Quilted Rectangle die set and I glue glued it over a postage white rectangle I made using the Good Day Quilted Rectangle die set.

I continued doubling the Postage rectangle with a light orange quilted rectangle ( this time I used the smallest one) and I glued everything over a white card base,

I continued by die cutting all floral parts of the Crafty Meraky Peony Artisan Flora Para-dies using many blue shades of cardstock for the peony and green for the leaves. After assembling the flowers and made the composition I pick up them using a Press'n seal sheet and I glued them over the hot foiled background.




















I continued by  adding the big "Hugs" sentiment made by die cutting the Meraki Moments Hugs Para-Dies, on white cardstock for the base (  to add dimesnionI die cut an glued together 4 layers) and on metallic rose gold cardstock for the top.




















I added the" & kisses" string sentiment who is a part of the Meraki Moments Hugs  stamp setI stamped it on a black cardstock using Versamark embossing ink and I embossed it using the WoW! embossing glitter  Fool's gold.

As a last thing I added some Meraki Sparkle Gold rhinestones  and rose gold sequins, using the amazing Twinke  Tray and Bling Buddy Embellishment Wand Tool.




















And that's it!

Hope you like it!
