Doily & washi tape - Thanks

Today I made a card using a few different products from Whiff of Joy. I had this wonderful doily die that I just wanted to use and I wasn't really sure what to do with it. But I started out by cutting it out on some white cardstock and then I found a bunch of scraps on my desk from previous cards I had made and just started playing around. Finally I came up with a design that I really liked and not only did I get a whole new card done, I also managed to clean up the scrap that was laying around om my desk.

Simple Sunday #14 - Layering Die Cuts

I am back with a new Simple Sunday project and this time I have to say I made the most simple card so far. I do really love it though and I think this card (or should I say these cards) can be used for any occasion.

This time I did two cards using the same technique instead of just one. And the reason for this is simply that I got some heart pieces left over when I cut out the pieces I needed for the first card. So I though, why not use them?

To make the first card I started with the Nested Hearts die set from Whiff Of Joy and four pieces of white cardstock. I adhered two of the pieces together so I would get two thicker pieces of cardstock that were thin enough for the dies to cut trough. I wanted my die cuts to be more dimensional and I didn't want to use foam squares since these will be visible from the top and the sides. So instead of foam squares I layered the die cuts on top of each other to get the desired effect. This way my die cuts will look really good from the side as well.

I used three different sizes of hearts and layered them to make thin frames and then I just adhered them together using a tape runner. Then it was time to assemble the card, stamp the sentiment and finish off with some rounded corners.

For my second card I did the same thing but this time I used the left over pieces that I got when die cutting the hearts for the first card. I always try to use up any left overs and this time I though that it would be a great idea to make two similar cards using the same technique. Cutting the hearts was a bit tricky, but once they were done these cards were extremely fast and easy to make.

I also filmed a tutorial for this card that you can find on my YouTube channel or here below.

Spray Inks & Die Cutting - Thank You

A new video, finally! I have been super lazy the last few months, but as I have said before we have had super good weather this summer and I just couldn't stay inside during this time. But now the bad weather is back again and I am back to making cards and videos. Hopefully I will get my camera back soon so I can film some DIY projects for you aswell.

The card I am sharing with you today is a very fast and simple card (as usual), and this time I used a background die and some spray inks.

To make this card I used two colors of Dylusions Spray Ink to color a piece of white cardstock. After I had completely dried the piece I used a gorgeous die from Spellbinders. Since I only wanted a small strip of the piece I cut it down to 1 inch. I also popped out a few of the die cut pieces for some extra interest.

The stamp set I used are called Beautiful Words and are from an old card cit I got from SimonSaysStamp. It is still available in the shop and I have added a link for you in the supply list below. I am using the sentiment that says "Thank you with all my heart" and I stamped it in jet black archival ink.
