It's A Good Day To Read A Good Book

Hi crafty friends! I'm here  here, today,  sharing  with you a card featuring the products of the new Cozy Tea Time new release.

To make my card I started by ie cutting a white  rectangle from a Neenah paper  using the largest die from the Whimsical Scalloped Frames die set,

Next, I die-cut the largest doily from the  Lace Doilies & Borders Die Set right from the center of that rectangle. Then, I stenciled the background using the  Sparkles Stencil and I glued it onto a  white card base:



After adding the lace doily back on top, I die-cut all the decorative elements I needed from the  Tea & Books Die set. Once everything was assembled, I glued them to the center of the card using foam pads to add a bit of dimension.

The last element I added was the open book, on which I had previously stamped the sentiment from the Tea & Books Stamp set.

And that's it!"

Below all the products I used:
 
Tea & Books Stamp & Die Bundle
 

You could find all of them on Alex Syberia Design UK shop and on the  US Alex Syberia Design shop  for the American friends.

White Embossed Peony Corners

Hi crafty friends! I'm  here, today, to share   with you a card featuring the Peony Corners Stamp set and the Good Day Quilted Rectangle die set.

This time I played with high contrast to realise a modern  pop card .

To male the card I started by die cutting a yellow rectangle from a textured Bazzill cardstock using a die included in the Whimsical Scalloped Frames die set.

Then I placed it on my Misti and I covered the surface  with anti-static powder to prepare it for heat embossing.  This to prevent stray embossing powder from sticking where it's not wanted.  Next up stamped the Peony Corners Stamp image using Versarmak ink, on the  top and on the bottom of the rectangle  and then I white embossed the floral images.

The result looks like a white embroidered  cover.


Next up I glued the embossed ywllow rectangle on a card base and I added the big sentiment on the card's center. I made it using a die from the Good Day Quilted Rectangle die set . I die cut the  aqua outlined part in two layers and the top one in four  white layers to give the die cut sentiment a little bit of dimension.

As a last thing I added some clear dew drops and that's it!

Here a recap of all products I used :

Peony Corners stamp, die & stencil Bundle

Peony Corners Stamp & Die Bundle

Peony Corners Stamp

Summer Full release Bundle

Whimsical Scalloped Frames die set

Good Day Quilted Rectangle die set

Spellbinders New & Improved Platinum SIX Die Cutting & Embossing machine

You could find all of them on Alex Syberia Design UK shop and on the  US Alex Syberia Design shop  for the American friends.

Hi crafty friends! I'm  here, today,  sharing  with you a card featuring the new  Alex Syberia  Happy Cuties and Peony Corners new release !

To make my card I started by stencilling the Glistening Water Stencil , on a Hammermill Cover paper using the Salvaged Patina Distress Oxide Ink; I die cut it into a rectangle using the largest one from the Whimsical Scalloped Frames die set.

Using the same rectangle die a die cut a white rectangle and on the right side I made a semi heart window using the Endless Hearts die and I glued ir over the stencilled rectangle, Then I added everything over a 4 1/2 x 5 1/2   white base card .


With the same Endless Hearts die I die cut the biggest heart frame in five layers and I glued all of them in the heart window cutting out the excellent part on the right side.

At the bottom of the heart frame I glued many acqua sequins.

I continued by stampjng the lovely bunnies images and the string sentiment  from the Summer Chill stamp set over a X-Press it paper; I colored them with Copic markers and then I die cut them using the Coordinate dies, the Summer Chill die set ;then I placed the lovely bunnies and the string sentiment inside the stencilled heart.

That's it!!

Friends Like You Mean Everything

Hi crafty friends!!!I'm  here sharing  with you my latest  card featuring the new  Alex Syberia  Happy Cuties and Peony Corners new release !

Today I played with the Peony Corners set, the Whimsical Dots stencil and the Whimsical Scalloped Frames die set.

You know we are always looking for inspiration for our cards and this inspiration often comes from photos, images, billboards or from an unexpected source... this time I was thinking about my next card  while I was tiding up the bedroom and the  duvet cover caught my attention... immediately I had the card assembled in my mind.

To make the card I start by stamping the Peony Corners stamp  on Neenah paper using Toffee Crunch Memento ink. I colored the image using the Peony Corner Stencil set, the Water Hyacinth Altenew Fresh Dye ink and the  Stormy Sky Distress Oxide ink.  Then I added some depth using Prismacolor pencils .

Next up I die cut it with the Peony Corners die set and I put it a side.

I continued  by making the background and all the card's structure.

I stencilled the Whimsical Dots stencil using the  Water Hyacinth Altenew Fresh Dye ink and the Gathered Twigs Distress Oxide ink and I cut it into a rectangle using the largest die from the Whimsical Scalloped Frames die set.

At that point I stamped on it the sentiment  from the Peony Corners stamp  set  using the Rich Cocoa Memento ink, I outlined it with a cerulean cardstock and  I glued them over a white base card.

Next up I die cut a scalloped border frame using the same cerulean cardstock and the he Whimsical Scalloped Frames die set. I die cut it in five layers, I glued all together and I added it over the background to frame  the dots background



Then I added the floral image using foam adhesive pad and as a last thing I added some  matte gold beads and that's it!
