Crafty Meraki IG hop - Happy Day box card

Hi crafty friends!!

Today I share with you a new card made with the new Crafty Meraki release! 

So so happy to be a part of this event we are celebrating with a fun Instagram hop !

Hope you could join us to see the amazing project of the @Crafty_Meraki design team and have the chance to win  fabulous prizes.

For all details please visit our IG accounts : mine @nicolettaporcu.design

But now let me share something about my card:

As you could see is an interactive card made featuring the follow products:

Magic Maker box die

Humming Harmony stamp set

Humming Harmony die set

Twinkle Tray

Bling buddy Embellishment wand tool

Sparkly Sunny Illusion Rhinestones

To make the card, as a first thing I stamped the Humming Harmony stamp set on a X-Press Copic paper,  using my Misty and black Memento ink.

Next up I colored everything with Copic markers, adding little dots of Atyou Spica glitter gel pens on hummingbirds.

It's really hard to capture the shine effect with the camera but I assure you the hummingbirds are iridescent.

Once everything was colored I die cut the images using the Humming Harmony die set, and I put them aside .

I continued by die cutting my base card using the Magic Maker box die; the base in white and the scalloped top part from a blue green paper.

I assembled the card and then I added the colored images using foam glue dots and plastic strings to help the birds and flowers to stay in place.

Once all the images and sentiment are glued I added some Sparkly Sunny Illusion Rhinestones  as a last touch.

To apply the rhinestones I used the amazing Crafty Meraki  tools: 

Twinkle Tray

Bling buddy Embellishment wand tool

This card fold down completely flat so you can mail it  too!!

And that's that!

It's Your Day

Hi crafty friends!

here today with a new card featuring Alex Syberia Designs products.

This time I 'm focused on die set from the past release I love but I hadn't  used yet! Hope you like it!

Let me say something about the making process!

As a first thing I die cut the Mysterious Petals  on a white cardstock and after positioned every single part on my sticky mat I  colored all the pieces with Distress inks and Altenew inks. 

I put together the floral branch and then I start to work on the base card.

I die cut the Chevron Chic Cover die from a white cardstock and I glued it on a white card base.

Next up I used the Charming Flora Cover die on a white cardstock and I  lightly blended the center with a pink ink and from it I cut out a smallest rectangle and outlined  it with a lilac and fuchsia cardstock. 

I glued this rectangle on Chevron chic base and over I added the floral brach I previously arranged.

As a last thing I added he sentiment string I realised by using the  Just Because Hot Foil & die set, hot foiling it in gold, and some pink rhinestone.

And that's that for today too!

Thank you for stopping by!!

See you soon

 

Always In My Heart

Hi crafty friends!

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.

As a first thing I die cut a white rectangle from the Good Day Quilted Rectangles die set and after blending some light blue ink on the centre I glued it on a white card base using foam tape to add dimension.

Next up I stamped the flowers , the leaves, the bird and the sentiment  from the Avian Allure stamp set on  Neenah paper  and I colored them using the  Avian Allure stencil set  and red, pink, light pink and teal  inks by Altenew.

I die cut all the elements using the coordinate dies and I glued them on the card's centre using foam tapeto add dimension.

At that point I added some white details on the flowers using a white gel pend and shiny detail o the bird using the Atyou Spica Glitter gel pens.

I completed adding the sentiment and some blue rhinestones.

I really love this set and I can't wait to see all the card you will create with it.

Alex Syberia Designs August Release Blog Hop & Giveaway

Hello crafty friends!!!

Today, we are celebrating the launch of  Alex Syberia Designs new release !

The Have a Good Day August release  is amazing and includes  clear stamps,  dies and stencils.

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

Joining with us  you will see many inspiration projects made by the AS design team in the ASD blog post,  so you could appreciate the amazing collection. 

Let me share with you the card I made for the occasion using the Floral Splendor Cover die,    the Good Day Quilted Rectangles die set and the Thank you & Hello die set.

 

I started by die cutting the Floral Splendor Cover die twice, one Neenah paper and the other one on vellum. I colored some flowers of the Neenah one using distress ink and ad I finished I doubled it with the vellum die cut.

Then I die cut a white rectangle background using the amazing Good Day Quilted Rectangles die set , I glued it over a white base card and over I added the Floral Splendor die cut .

Next up I doubled the white flowers of the Floral Splendor Cover white other single white flowers  (the flowers die cut are part of the Floral Splendor Cover die set too) using adhesive foam pads.

I  completed the card by adding the big Hello sentiment  I got from  the Thank you & Hello die set. ,  and the string sentiment that is part of the  Expressing Gratitude stamp set   die cut with the coordinate dies.

As a last touch I added some clear rhinestones on the white flowers. And that's that!

I  really love how it turned out and hope you could appreciate it too!
