My Little Red Wagon with Blackeye Susans


Hello my crafty friends!

It has been a while since I have posted as I have been enjoying my summer outside as much as possible as winter in Maine is long and cold.

Today I finally have a card I have created using Spellbinders Susan's Garden newest release called Birds & Bees Garden  I have used the Blackeye Susan  S2-376 and S4-1320 Autumn Foliage.

Card Base is 5" X 7" Black Cardstock.  First mat layer is red cardstock cut to 4-3/4" X 6-3/4" adhered to card front using Clear Double Sided Adhesive. Second  mat layer is black & white plaid cut 4-1/2" X 6-1/2" adhered to card front and adhered with Clear Double Sided Adhesive.

From white cardstock I cut a large oval big enough for my wagon then I embossed using Susan's Bamboo 3D embossing Folder E3D-044 from the Painters Garden Release.  I attached oval to center of card front using Clear Double Sided Adhesive.

My wagon is a Cricut die cut which I attached to card front using dimensional tape.

Using Spellbinders Susan's Garden Blackeye Susan S2-376 I cut 5 from Susan's Specialty Paper SCS-122 colored with alcohol markers and shaped using Susan's Deluxe Tool Kit T-021.  Using the Maple Leaf from Autumn Foliage S4-1320 I cut 5 from Susan's Specialty Paper SCS 122 and colored with alcohol markers and shaped with Susan's Deluxe Tool Kit T-021. Susan has a YouTube Video for creating these flowers as well as the Autumn Foliage which you can find here. Flowers and leaves were arranged in the wagon.

Hope this has been inspirational and that you will go make a Blackeye Susans and Autumn Foliage Card.

Thanks for stopping by and until next time  (hope it will be sooner than later summer is coming to a close)  - 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
