Jar of Lavender


Hello My Crafty Friends,

Today I am posting a card I created using Spellbinders/Susan's Garden brand new Release Victorian Garden.  I have  chosen to use S6-207 Mason Jar & Lavender die set. 

Card base is 5" X 7" created from 110# cardstock.  Pattern paper cut 4-3/4" x 6-3/4" (P13 "Till we meet again -05" used here) adhered using Double Sided Adhesive.

Window was cut from a wood print cardstock using Say It With Stamps and Dies by Becky Moore.  I did a little water color scene and cut to fit behind window along with a piece of clear cardstock.

I did 4 stems of Lavender.  Susan's YouTube video for creating the Lavender found  here.

Using clear cardstock I cut 2 Mason Jars colored back of 1 and front of the other with blue alcohol marker.  I added the stems between the jars and adhered the 2 jars together leaving top open using Bearly Art Glue and clipping together to dry.  I bent the jar a little with my fingers to get it to curve a bit.  I used Kids Choice Glue on very edges ( no glue on the top) to adhere to card front.

The sentiment is from Garden Gate Collection stamped on white cardstock using black ink the die cut then cut a second circle a little larger.  they are adhered together with dimensional tape then adhered to card front.

Well I hope that you have been inspired and you will make your own card.  Be sure to check out Susan's new release called Victorian Garden along with all here other wonderful dies at Spellbinders.

Thank you for stopping by today and until next time - Happy creating!

Christine

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

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.
