Hello, Kraftie Friends!
I made a card today, inspired by the colors Red, White & Blue...
I'm trying out a 3-D embossing folder I got (Star Fall - Sizzix) and the best way to get a good 3-D impression is to spray water on your paper before embossing. The only thing is that you'll have wait for it to dry before using it on a project...
I brushed dye inks on the embossed panel and die cut it. Then, I brushed it with CTMH Clear Shimmer Brush.
Sentiment (CTMH) was stamped and fussy cut, and I also brushed some red ink + Clear Shimmer Brush before adhering on card with Foam Tape.
Challenges:
1. Cupcake Inspirations #547: Oh My Stars
2. Simon Says Mon: Red, White and/or Blue

Hello, Kraftie Friends!
A card using scrap papers, a die cut and a pumpkin embellishment I made...
Hello, Kraftie Friends!
I tried a new Fun Fold Card - Pinwheel Tower Cards - and here are my first ones...
Card #1
This was my first try and I messed it up, since the panels were not straight enough. So I trimmed it down to 3.75" x 5.5" and figured I could still use it with embellishments sticking up on top, but still able to fit in a A2 envelope!
So I used scrap papers and a new die cut I bought recently...and voila'!
This is what it looks like from the top:
Card #2
I'll show the other 3 sides of both cards in another post + a video tutorial on how I made mine later...
And here are a couple of cards using die cuts from my scrap box...
Card #3
Frames were cut with a machine. I had the flower cut out also, so I just lined up the images and adhered the flower cut out on card with foam tape. Then, I added a stamped sentiment + shimmer brushed the flower cut out in Peach.
Card #4
I layered some die cut leaves, shimmer brushed the green leaves in Peach and adhered on card with foam tape. Some other die cut leaves were glued flat or adhered on card with foam tape. On the inside, I stamped "our friendship stays the same".
Challenges:
Card #1
1. The Flower Challenge #62: Add Leaves
2. Challenge Up Your Life #141: Interactive
3. Mix It Up #55: AGoes + 3-D Projects
Card #2
1. If you Give a Crafter a Cookie #162: November

I used Floral Borders & Sentiments Stamp Set and alcohol-based markers for this easy card.
Card #4
