Wreath Turnabout – 2 Cards

I have tried out a couple of turnabout stamps for creating easy and wonderful backgrounds for my cards,but this new wreath turnabout set(Concord & 9th) has a much smaller pattern and there are two of them in the set…my first thought was to create something with copper embossing and that’s what I did for one of my cards…while on the other card I have simply used various Oxide inks to stamp the pattern…

I started by stamping one of the wreaths on black cardstock with some watermark ink and then heat embossing it with copper embossing powder….it has to be rotated 90 degrees after each stamping a total of four times to get this result…I also stamped and heat embossed the sentiment and a small heart in the middle of the wreath…

On the front of a plain black card base,I adhered a copper coloured paper cut to the same size as the card front..I cut the embossed black panel to the size required and added some black craft foam underneath then adhered it to the card front and my card was ready…

For my second card I picked out these shades of Distress Oxide inks to stamp the other wreath in the stamp set – twisted citron, cracked pistachio, peacock feather and evergreen bough…I then added some dots and the sentiment label stamped with aged mahogany…

I didn’t want to add any other colour to my card so I covered the front of the card base with aged mahogany before die cutting the stamped front panel and adhering it to the card base…

These wreath stamps are quite beautiful and versatile…I do hope I can remember to use them to create a few Christmas cards later this year..

Thank you so much for stopping by to take a look at my card….Have lovely & blessed day ahead…!!

You & Me Card

Doesn’t it feel great when you plan out a project and it turns out exactly as you had planned..??It happens to a lot of crafters but my projects don’t necessarily follow my plans…at all..ha ha…but this one surprisingly did…

I started with a silver cardstock base and cut watercolour paper to size before colouring it in with Peacock Feather distress ink…the edges are a bit darker than the center but the photo doesn’t show it that well…

I then used silver foil cardstock to die cut a fancy flourish and placed it on the top layer…then I die cut two hearts from vellum and coloured them in with a light marker and used a white gelly roll pen to create a stitched effect on the edges and placed them above the flourish…

On a silver banner,I stamped the sentiment with Versamark ink and then heat embossed with red embossing powder before placing it above the two vellum hearts…

Finally I decorated the card with small hearts that were die cut from red glitter cardstock using the confetti die by Mama Elephant…

Thanks for stopping by to take a look at my card….Have a lovely & blessed day ahead…!!

Hello( From Australia) Card

The Stampers Anonymous Cityscapes stamp set by Tim Holtz is simply beautiful…I have used them on various projects before but have never had a result like this one….

I started with a plain white card base and cut watercolour paper to size for the top layer….on that top layer I stamped the Sydney cityscape image with Versamark ink and heat embossed it with gold embossing powder….

I coloured in the image with light colours and then coloured in the sky and water using Peerless watercolours….The large word ‘hello’ has been die cut from gold glitter cardstock and I have decorated the card with a few blue sequins…

Thanks for stopping by today…Have a blessed day…!!

Simple Birthday Card

I like outline stamps…and while they are great for colouring in with watercolours,markers or pencils….they are also great as is….especially when you want to create something simple…

While I did want to create a simple card,I also wanted to use colours…so I have used various colours of dye inks to stamp the flowers from my Altenew Peony Scroll stamp set on a white top layer for this card….once the flowers were stamped,I have again used different shades of green and brown inks to fill in the spaces with the leaf stamps in the set…

The background was ready,so I adhered it to the plain purple card base….I have stamped the sentiment on a small purple banner using white heat embossing powder…and I have just used 3 sequins to decorate the card…

Have a happy & blessed day ahead….Happy crafting…!!

Happy Thoughts Your Way Card

I wanted to make a card that could be used for any event or occasion…so I went through all my small stamps and decided to use an envelope stamp to create the background for this card….

The card base is plain pinkish-purple….and I have created the top layer by repeatedly stamping a small envelope stamp on white cardstock using various dye inks….I then masked the envelopes and covered the rest of the white space with distress inks..

I then die cut Vellum for the top layer using the largest of the stitched rectangle die and heat embossed the sentiment using a purple heat embossing powder….I also created a tiny envelope using double sided paper to add on the front of the card…

Finally I used a few sequins to decorate the top layer…these sequins also hide the sticky dots that I have used to adhere the vellum onto the card…

Thanks for stopping by today…Have a lovely & blessed day ahead….Happy crafting…!!

Thinking Of You Card

So I pulled out black cardstock yet again and decided to make a simple card with it….I think the yellow looks vibrant with the black card base….

There is not much to this card…I started with a black cardstock card base….the top layer is made from watercolour paper which has been washed with yellow watercolour….once that was dry,I stamped the foliage stamps using Versamark ink and heat embossed all the images with white embossing powder…

The sentiment is stamped on a black banner using white pigment ink and I have used gold cardstock to die cut a few sequins to decorate the card…

Hope you’ll have a wonderful and crafty day ahead…Happy crafting…

Creative Hands Blog Challenge – Love Birds

Hello…Today’s card is for Creative Hands Friends Challenge Blog.…the blog challenges here run for two weeks and looking at all the entries,I can see that there is a big number of people entering the challenges and having a lot of fun participating in them…

Me And My Daily Papercraft Blog - Handmade by PriCreated

For this card,I started with a gold cardstock card base and then started preparing the top layer….I have used a few different distress inks to create the top layer and then stamped it lightly with an embossing folder spritzed with water(sorry that is not quite visible in the picture)…once it was dry I stamped the sentiment at the top using Versamark ink and gold embossing powder…

I printed out two bird digis for this card – one as is and another one flipped before printing…..then coloured them in and cut out and placed on a branch…and finally I have placed a few heart sequins and tiny rhinestones to finish the card…

The sponsor for the challenge is Cre8tive Hands..there is a great selection of Digi’s at an equally great price so pls check those out…

Sending Blessings Card

Every now and then I go through all my stamps hoping for an idea to pop up or find a stamp I haven’t used in a long time…and today I pulled out these 3D doily stamps that I haven’t used recently….

The card base is plain green and for the top layer I have used watercolour paper….I have just used one shade of green peerless watercolour to do a kind of a wash to create the background….once the top layer was dry,I stamped the sentiment at the top…

I decided not to stamp the doily stamps directly on the top layer….so I stamped them on a separate piece of cardstock using Versamark ink and then heat embossing them with black embossing powder…then I coloured them in with bright colours and cut them out and placed them on the card using adhesive foam squares…

To decorate the card I have simply used green rhinestones in various sizes….

Hope you liked this card….
