Dare 2B Artzy | Fun Fold Bloom Birthday Card

Hello hello hello crafty friends! I am back again today with a Fun Fold Bloom Birthday Card.

I am sharing a full details about this fun fold card at Dare 2B Artzy Blog today.

For the base card, I cut out a piece of 80 lbs Neenah Solar White cardstock using the Fun Card Fold Die. I also cut out one of the All A Bloom Paper from the All the Buzz Collection Variety Pack using the same die for the background pattern. If you like, you can grab just the All A Bloom Paper Pack, too.

I cut out the stripe pattern from the left over patterned paper using the Rectangle Fancy Framelit Dies for the fun fold middle card background.

For the sentiment label, I cut out another piece of the Neenah Solar White cardstock using the smaller size of the Rectangle Fancy Framelit Dies and I stamped the birthday sentiment from the Sunshine and Rainbows Stamp Set with VersaFine Onyx Black ink pad using my Mini MISTI. I added it on the card with 3D foam tape for extra dimension to it

A stamping tip: I used purple tape to cover the other words before adding the ink, and I cleaned the stamp after every time I stamped it. This way you can stretch your stamps.

I cut out the flowers and leaves from the rest of the bloom paper using the Spring is Blooming Die. I love how we can use the left over paper and not wasting the awkward shape!!! I added the flowers and leaves around the sentiment label with permanent liquid glue.

I love how this card can be mail flat and fit inside a regular A2 envelope. For me, floral card is not only for Spring, it can be for any occasion. What do you think?

Before you go… Check out our monthly challenge. This month theme is Anything Goes.

I hope you all find a spark of inspiration today. Thank you so much for stopping by!

Hello My Friend | Dare 2B Artzy August Challenge

Hello hello hello my friends!!! It has been a while since the last time I wrote blog post. Lots of things had happened in the last 6 weeks of my life.

I had a surgery on my left arm and still in recovery… It has been a long and hard recovery journey for me but I am thankful for helps I got. I am still in therapy but hopeful.

So… today, I would like to share and excited news too! I am a new team member for the the Dare 2B Artzy!!! To kick off my term with them, I made my first card for the Dare 2B Artzy Challenge. And for August Challenge, the theme is Anything Goes.

I love the new All The Buzz Collection papers. On my card today, I used the All The Bloom pattern from this collection or you also can buy it in a pack of 15 papers here.

I cut out the base with Silhouette Cameo and then I added the paper on my slimline card with permanent adhesive runner. I cut out a thin strip of the stripe pattern and added it also on the card with the same adhesive.

I cut out a piece of white cardstock using Oval Scalloped Framelit Dies. And then using MISTI, I stamped on it the word “Hello” from Spring is Blooming Stamp Set using Memento DewDrop Pear Tart and then I stamped the word “my friend” from Get Well Stamp Set using Memento DewDrop Nautical Blue.

I wrapped the burlap ribbon twine around the card, right on top of the paper strip, the tie up a know. I added the sentiment label on the card with 3D foam tape. After that, I tied up the ribbon twine into a bow and secure it on the card with a dot of liquid glue.

I embellished the card with some sequins just for a little bit extra bling on it.

I hope this card cheers you up today. And I hope you all can play along with the D2BA August Challenge.

Thank you so much for stopping by my blog today!

How Ya Bean? Let’s Venti

Hello everyone! It is Thursday… I got lost in time, I almost forgot what day it is and bit late with my post. So let’s take a little break with me…which I need it right now!

Today, I would like to share this CAS bubble tea card that I created for the Coffee Loving Cardmakers Thursday Coffee Break post.

For the background, I printed one of the pretty Sweet Love Digital Paper from Graciellie Design on a white cardstock, and then I cut it out with one of the Fancy Frame Dies from Craftin Desert Diva (closed now). I added it on a white card using Scrapbook Adhesives E-Z Runner Grand and 3D white foam dots.

Next, I used the Oh Frappe Stamp Set from Essentials by Ellen Clear Stamps. It is an oldest stamp set and die set from Ellen Hutson.

I stamped the cups and the bubble with VersaFine Onyx Black and Mini MISTI on a heavyweight white cardstock. I colored the cups with Koi Watercolors and waterbrush.

I stamped the sentiment using Catherine Pooler Icing On The Cake Ink Pad on a white cardstock with Mini MISTI, then I trimmed it into sentiment label. I added it the card with 3D white foam dots.

I hope you all have wonderful caffeinated day! Thanks for stopping by today.

Mini Mason Jar Shaped Shaker Card

Hello everyone! We are having a “Staycation” for kicking off our Summer. Lots of fun things we can do around here for sure. I hope you have a wonderful month so far.

Today, I would love to share this fun mini mason jar shaped shaker card that I made using Clear Scraps Mini Shaker Mason Jar and TapeRunner.

I am sharing a tutorial with pictures at Clear Scraps Blog. And while you are there, check out all the amazing projects from the team for our collaboration with the TapeRunner team.

I used one of the sentiment from Graciellie Digital stamp sets. I printed it on a white cardstock and the cut it with one of the We R Memory Keeper Scallop Rectangle Dies.

I used some of the white glass beads for the shaker filler in the jar. They are so much fun to shake inside the jar!

I tied up some natural burlap twine around the lid of the jar and secured it with the TapeRunner. I also applied some TapeRunner on the back of the 3D paper flower and on top of the twine knot. I added the flower on the card.

I really love how this mini mason jar shaped shaker card turned out. It can be used as an encouragement card and the recipient can put it on their desk as little decor reminding them to shine.

I hope this project sparks an inspiration for your to create projects. Thank you so much for stopping by my blog today. Have a wonderful day!!!
