Autumn Hydrangeas in Shadow Box


Welcome my crafty friends,

Today I have another card featuring one of the dies from Susan's Autumn Flora release with Spellbinders. For today's card I have chosen to use the Autumn Hydrangea in a shadowbox card.

Card is 6 X 6 tent fold created from white cardstock

Shadowbox was created from an 11" square of double sided printed paper. I used Susan's video from her live post a couple weeks ago on Susan's Garden Club you can find that here

Adhere shadowbox to card front using clear double sided adhesive

Create 2 Autumn Hydrangeas along with leaves. Susan has done YouTube videos on all the new release and they will be on line very soon and when available will be linked.

Hydrangeas were attached in shadowbox using Kids Choice Glue.

Be sure to check out the other two design team members blogs to see their wonderful creations. Selma Stevenson - selmasstampingcorner.blogspot.com and Karen Liddle cakescardsandcraftybits.blogspot.com

I am posting links below to the new release if you click on any picture it will take you directly to Spellbinders and any purchases you make through that click will earn me a small commission at no additional cost - thank you. At this time it will not allow you to purchase it says notify me but as soon as Spellbinders starts selling them on their site you will be able to purchase this way.

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

You only live once if you live right once is enough!

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...

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...

Family Hydrangeas

Hello My Crafty Friends, Today I have another card for you that I created,  my inspiration actually being bouquet of dried hydrangeas that sits on my dresser in an old antique vase.  The hydrangeas are ones that grow across the front of my house they are called Bobo.  These hydrangeas have been on my dresser since I cut them last fall and one day as I looked at them my inspiration hit me. Inspiration: Here is how it was created. Step 1   Card base is 5" X 7 - I used Tonic Studios Craft Perfect Ivory White Card Blanks.  These card blanks are very nice quality also com in white and other sizes. Step 2   Cut colored cardstock 4-3/4" X 6-3/4" using Oval die set ( Susan's Garden Notes Fitted Frame It used here) choose oval one size smaller than what you want for opening - die cut oval in cardstock keeping it close to top.    Cut Ivory cardstock 4-1/2" X 6-1/2"  Using next size up oval die cut oval adhere ivory on top of colored using Clear Doubl...
