 Happy Sunday, Kraftie Friends!

It's been a while...but I have a card to share today, using die cuts.

When I get my die cut machine out...can't just cut 1 or 2 designs...so, even if I don't need them right away, I die cut whatever I can fit in the scraps, then organize them in small photo boxes to use later.

I used a negative panel, leftover from previous cuts, and added new die cuts to make this card. Most die cuts are Sizzix (Jungle Shadow Box) and some are Spellbinders.

 Hello, Kraftie Friends!

This is a metal die from CTMH Daisy Meadows Cardmaking Workshop Kit and ever since I saw it, I had this idea...to make it into a...

The arch on top makes for perfect handles! The stamps and flower die cuts come with the Kit. You get 4 of those, so you don't have to run 1 die a bunch of times. I embossed the sides with a floral embossing folder from my stash. You can fill it with small treats!

Hello, Kraftie Friends!

Me again..sorry I have so many posts this week, but feeling inspired by challenges...so, have to create while I can...before I get too busy next week!

Here's a first for me...a Christmas Slimline Card using die cuts only! Usually I add some stamping, but not this time!

 Hello, Kraftie Friends!

I made a Pop-Up Box Card a long time ago (click HERE to see the post)...so, thought it was time to make similar cards with the same concept, but different designs...

These cards were inspired by Challenges that are using Book covers as inspiration...

The first one is very easy, since I used a Die Cut Set (Card In a Box - Christmas by Sizzix) plus other dies by Spellbinders...do you see a camouflaged birdie?

The second one was inspired by a card I saw on the homepage of SplitCoastStampers.com + me trying to make the most out of double-sided papers (I plan to make a video soon once I recover my voice...who knows when that will happen! lol!)

I used double-sided PP and some die cuts from Spellbinders, others are Sizzix and SU!, CTMH Cherry Blossoms Stamp Set, alcohol-based markers, Blue Belle Sequins, and an embossing folder from my stash. I made the box myself (unlike the previous box, which was die cut).

I was inspired by the "There's a Tiger in the Garden" cover...the plants, butterfly and flowers...just don't have a tiger on it...but I used the color orange!
