Framed Spider Mum Eucalyptus & Berries





Hello my crafty friends!

Today I have another card using a couple of Spellbinders/Susan's Garden newest release Victorian Garden.  I have used S5-576 Spider Mum and S4-1278 Victorian Foliage along with S4-1079 Foliage & Ladybug from Autumn Flora Collection.  Spellbinders S5-394 Nobel Chatelaine was used to create corner pieces.  Paper is P13- Farm Sweet Farm -03.

Card base and frame is 6" X 6"

Susan has done the frame on her Facebook Live and here is a link.  I believe Susan's frame was 8" X 8" so here are the dimensions I used for my 6" X 6".  I cut 4 pieces 6" X 3-1/4" and scored all at 3/4", 
1-1/4", 2", 2-1/2"  When making the cut outs on each piece I came down 3/4" instead of 1".   From white cardstock with double sided adhesive decorative pieces were cut using a die from Spellbinders S5-394 Nobel Chatelaine then cut in half and trimmed to make corner pieces then attached to frame corners.  Completed frame was attached to 6" X 6" card base.

Spider Mum & Eucalyptus were cut from Susan's Specialty Paper colored with alcohol markers and shaped with Susan's Ultimate tool Kit.  Susan's How to YouTube video found here.  Berry Branch was cut from green cardstock shaded with ink and shaped a little using Susan's Ultimate Tool Kit.  For the berries I have used small Styrofoam balls colored with acrylic paint for the berries.  YouTube video for Berry Branch can be found here.

Flowers and Foliage were arranged on card frame adhered using Kids Choice Glue.

So hope that this has been an inspiration and you will check out all of Susan's dies at Spellbinders and will make your own card.

Thanks for stopping by and until next time - Happy Creating!

Good Morning Everyone!  Sorry it has been so long since I have posted but I have been busy getting ready to go to Creative Keepsake Convention and then going to convention. I had a great time taking classes, shopping, eating and enjoying great friends. My post today is using one of Susan's Garden new dies and one of Karen Burniston's pop up dies.  It was hard to get a good clear picture because of the shine from the glitter. Card base is an A2 size card (4-1/4 X 5-1/2) 1.  Panel is made by using Karen Burniston's accordion rectangle die.  Attach a piece of sticker paper  4-1/2 X 5-3/4 to a pc of white cardstock the same size using clear double sided adhesive. Cut 1 frame from this.  Cut the rectangle and tabs from center of frame and the long tab on the left edge of the frame. Run this frame through Sizzix machine using Hearts Entwined embossing folder (or other embossing folder of your choice)  Peel the paper from the front of the frame ( protective paper covering adhesive

Family Birthday Cards

Welcome my crafty friends! Today I have a couple birthday cards I did for our grandson and my hubby.  Our grandson and hubby share their birthday - grandson was best birthday gift ever. Our grandson turned 18 and he loves to fish he has a boat and fishes when he is not working.  Hubby turned 79 and loves his John Deere tractor.   Cards are both 6" X 6" and I used a combination of dies and Cricut to make my cards. The pop up mechanism was same for both it was an old die set of Karen Burniston when she was with Elizabeth Craft Designs - Bathtub Pop Up.  Another time I would reshape the bathtub into a boat but I had already hand cut the boat then went looking for a die set that had a pop up mechanism to use kind of like putting the cart before the horse. KB Riley  1003  Word 2 Birthday, 1031 Numbers and 1049 Camping Charms  were used.  The fisherman, fish and the silhouette of boat and fisherman were cut on Cricut.  Hooked On Fishing was  cut from a top strip of design paper fro

  Hello my crafty friends! Another Breast Cancer Survivor card that I created in October.  Once again I used Spellbinders Susan's Garden Sunflower, Acacia and Berry Branch and for this card Spellbinders Amazing Paper Grace Lisette Oval Shadowbox Frame die set. My card base is 5" X 7" made from 100# white cardstock.  Embossed layer is 4-3/4" X 6-3/4" white cardstock.  I used a swiss dot embossing folder (it is an old 8-1/2" X 11" embossing folder - I have used it so much it is taped together now).  This piece was attached to card front using Clear Double Sided Adhesive .  Using the Lisette Oval Shadowbox Frame 2  largest dies I cut 1 from pink cardstock adhered to card front using Bearly Art Glue.   I printed sentiment on white cardstock then die cut using the next 2 dies from Lisette die set then attached to card front using dimensional tape. Susan's Garden Sunflower S4-1177 from Garden Favorites Release was cut from Susan's Specialty
