Snowflakes

snowflakes

Welcome my crafty friends!

Today my post is a quick card I created using some of Joset Designs newly released dies Snowflakes, Snowflake Border and Words 5 Winter Wishes.

Here is how the card was created.

Step 1  Form 6" X 6" card base.

Step 2  Cut 6" X 6" white Soft Finish Cardstock add Clear Double Sided Adhesive to top.  Add Silk Microfine Glitter - Sea Glass to adhesive burnish in with fingers.

Step 3  Die cut bottom edge of card front using Joset Designs newest release Snowflake Border.

Step 4  Using Joset Designs new release Snowflakes die cut 2 from white Soft Finish Cardstock that has Clear Double Sided Adhesive on front.  Add Silk Microfine Glitter - Cool Diamond to adhesive burnish in with fingers.  Adhere to card front using Kids Choice Glue on back center of each snowflake.  Add pearls to center of each snowflake.  (I use a bit of Kids Choice Glue to pearls even if they have adhesive on back because of the glitter)

Step 5  Cut black cardstock 2" X 4" add Clear Double Sided Adhesive to front cover adhesive with black Silk Microfine Glitter burnish in with fingers.  From Joset Designs new release die set Words 5 Winter Wishes cut Let It Snow.  Adhere to card front using Kids Choice Glue.

Step 6  Add Clear Double Sided Adhesive to bottom 1-1/2" of inside card.  Add Silk Microfine Glitter - Cool Diamond burnish in with fingers.  This was done so to give the snowflake border glittery effect through the cutouts the picture does not show it but it does look good.

Thanks for stopping by my blog today hope you have a go at it.  For any of the Elizabeth Craft Designs products I used today just click on any picture below it will take you directly to site.

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 p...

A Breath of Spring

Hello My Crafty Friends! Finally the daffodils are blooming and tulips are starting to put on buds - Spring has finally arrived here in Maine. Today my card is one that a friend has requested for her mother.  I have chosen several spring flowers from several Spellbinders Susan's Garden releases to create my card.  For my card I have used S4-1085 Lily of the Valley from Spring flora, S4-1175 Lilac from Garden Favorites, S2-340 Forget Me Not from Garden Gate and S5-470 Vase, Daffodil & Narcissus from Summer Flora.   The card base is one I have done before using other shapes for window Sam Calcott has a YouTube video for it (Acetate Hexagon Card) you can find it here .  I chose to do circle instead of hexagon and cut my cardstock 7" square and circles were 4-3/4" and 3-3/4".  I created a box for the card using  Donna Griffith's How to make your own custom sized boxes YouTube video found here  it is a great video.  I chose to add a framed win...
