Easy Circle Card Technique featuring Pink & Main

 Hello friends! I am super excited to share my first card project as a Pink & Main design team member. If you are like me and get confused by all the technicalities of special fold/design cards, you can use the super easy Circle Flip Card Dies to create a circle card base. Then, add whatever you like to personalize it. 

The first step is to cut your cardstock base to 4.25 inches by 11 inches. Then, score that piece down the middle at 5.50 inches. 

Using one of the dies from the set, you’re going to butt the corners of your card base to it. (This is the die below. 

Then, run this part through your die-cutting machine. (This die will cut the circle flip and create a score line, which will help make the interactive movement of the flip card.) You will need to enforce the score line with a bone folder.

Then, you can use the extra dies in the set to personalize your card, or you can use whatever you like from your stash. (However, I do recommend using the panel dies from the set to help create interest in your design.) I used it to cut from cream-colored cardstock and embossed it using a Pink & Main Branches Embossing Folder.

The florals on my card are cut out of a light blue card stock and vellum. I adhered the floral die cuts to both sides of the flip circle to help create a cohesive look when the card was flipped open. I added embellishments to the centers of the flowers using the Pink Sticky Gems from Pink & Main. 

I adhered the Pink & Main Watercolor panel, which I cut using a basic stitched rectangle die, to one side of the card. I added another die-cut circle to create an area to write a little note.

I used the sentiments from the Pink & Main Thank You Sentiments stamp set which I heat embossed with gold embossing powder.

I hope I inspire you to start getting crafty! 

Until next time! 

Love, Theary

Mysterious Mushroom Featuring Memory Box

 Hello there! It's Theary here on the blog again. Today, I am sharing a card using the Mysterious Mushroom dies from Memory Box. 

This card came together fairly quickly. I die-cut the Mysterious Mushrooms from a sheet of pattern paper from the gorgeous Nutmeg Plaid Paper Pad and woodgrain cardstock. I adhered the pieces together with liquid adhesive.

I used dark green cardstock from Taylored Expressions for the background panel and created a score line down every quarter inch with my scoreboard and bone folder. I later went in with brown ink and blended around the edges.

I trimmed a beautiful sheet of paper from the Nutmeg Plaid Paper Pad about 2 inches by 5.50 inches and tore the edges off the two longer sides. I like how the pattern papers have a white core, which provides a nice contrast of colors.

I popped the pattern paper against the green scored panel with foam tape and adhered to the mushrooms.

I added a strip of foil sentiment tab to the card panel and a few embellishments.

And that is it! I hope you found some inspiration and get crafty in your craft space. Until next time!

I hope you have a wonderful day!

Haunting Ghost featuring Memory Box

 Hello everyone! It’s Theary here back on the blog. I can’t believe that it’s almost Halloween! I felt that this year had flown by so fast.

For the card today I am sharing a spooky cute card design using 94692 Haunting Ghosts.

The Fall Cornucopia release has a lot of yummy new cardstock. I couldn’t resist not using the array of colors on my card design. For the haunting ghosts, I died-cut each one out of the cardstocks in the colors SH44008 Deep Turquoise, SH44019 Golden Wheat, SH44017 Orange Peel, SH44016 Raspberry Sorbet, and SH44013 Lavender Bloom. I added cute little googly eyes to each one.

The background was created using EF1033 Spiral Delight 3D Embossing Folder. I used white cardstock and ran that through my cutting machine.

The sentiment CL5284D Magical Halloween Clear Stamp and Dies was stamped onto white cardstock using clear embossing ink. I later heat-set a coat of clear embossing powder over the inked sentiment and used the coordinating dies to cut that out.

I adhered the spiral-embossed cardstock over a black matted cardstock. I then randomly adhered the haunting ghosts onto the card panel. I then popped on the sentiment using foam squares to the bottom left-hand corner.

And finally, I adhered to a top folding card base.

That completes the card! I hope you enjoyed the tutorial and got crafty! Until next time!

Layering Festive Santa featuring Memory Box

Hello! I can't believe it's almost September. Although I will miss the summer months, I am super excited about the upcoming fall and winter seasons. 

I am sharing a Christmas-inspired card using fantastic products from The Yuletide Collection.

The Layered Festive Santa 94823 has so many details. I used the die and ran that through my die-cutting machine on red and white cardstock. To add extra details to each layer, I used markers, ink pads, a blending brush, and a white gel pen to build dimension with shading and highlights. I also added the adorable Pretty Presents 94761 into Santa's bag. 

I created the background using Narrow Woodgrain Planks 94823 and die-cut from a few pattern papers from Yuletide Plaid PP1031. I added adhesive to the back and adhered it to scratch paper that I trimmed to 5.25 inches by 4 inches.

I adhered the pattern-planked background to a kraft-colored cardstock and popped on sweet Santa on top with a sentiment from Memory Box holiday foil tabs. And finally, I adhered it to a top folding card base. 

I hope you found some inspiration and get crafty in your craft space! Until next time!

Have a wonderful day!

Theary Chea
