Die Tutorial

 
Thanks for stopping by, today I am doing a tutorial for One Crazy Stamper, and I didn't really know what to make, so my dear friend said I use a lot of different company dies, and should show case dies.  So that is my Tutorial.  I am using Spellbinders for this one.  I hope I took the pictures in the correct order.  I didn't add many embellishments for this one, wanted to showcase the dies.  You can create so many wonderful projects using dies.  Thanks again for stopping and I hope you get into your craft room to create. 
 I used 3D Foam Tape and adhered the white to the red, then adhered to my card stock base.
 I cut out the main die, and used Labels 8 for the center, and again used 3D Foam Tape to Pop it up.
 This die I added to the other die, using glue dots.
 
 This oval die I also used the large classic oval die for the center, and then using 3D Foam tape popped it up.
 I stamped a sentiment on the white oval and popped it up using foam tape and you can still see the red a wee bit.
  The next die, I wanted to use was perfect to see a bit of red behind it.
 I used glue dots to adhere to the ovals.
 
 Then added this to my card base, and started to added some flowers (poinsettias).
 I also used my red wink of stella brush pen to add some sparkle to the poinsettias.
 You could add much more to this card or any project.  I used the step card base, but you sure could make this using many different card bases.
Supplies used:
Red-White Card Stock
Layered Poinsettia
Raindrops on Rose-Heartfelt Creations 
Floral Ovals
Classic Ovals Large
Labels 4
Labels 8
Decorative Labels 8
Exquisite Labels 11

Fancy Folds #211 4 Crafty Chicks

Thanks again for coming to my blog, today, 4 Crafty Chicks Challenge today is #211 Fancy Folds, so I tried something a wee bit different, not sure how much I like it, but here it is any way.  I folded the small piece on the front of my card and adhered my image onto it.  Hope this makes sense.  Then it didn't fold down right, so I added a clothes pin with a snowflake to clip it together.  Added a ribbon and brad.  I colored my image using Copic Markers. 
The stamp I used for the front of my card is from Wild Rose Studio called Snowman Hugs, and the inside stamps are from American Crafts-Clear Stamps.

4 Crafty Chicks #210 Real/Faux Sewing

Welcome back to my blog and welcome to the first week of September, wow summer sure has flown by fast.  I can't believe we are into the first week.
The challenge today at 4 Crafty Chicks is Real or Faux Sewing.  As I used to do so much sewing on fabric, it is also fun to sew on paper crafts.  Some like the faux sewing or stitching as some like to call it.  It is my turn to host the challenge, pop on over check out the design team creations and we are also having our Guest Designer Call, so lots of fun stuff going on over at 4 Crafty Chicks.
My cards, as I couldn't just pick one after making two of them, are pretty clean and simple this time around.  Some sewing around the edge, sentiment and some punched out leaves, I used the Bella Blvd-Thankful pattern paper and I also stamped a SU Medallion stamp and used clear embossing powder to enhance it on the solid card stock.  Thanks again for stopping and look forward to see your creations over at 4 Crafty Chicks.  Till next time, happy crafting!
