Tin of Cards Work of Art

The Tin of cards set (p 110) is still on my

top 10 favorites list.  I love being able to create a squiggly shapes

or just a little squiggle on a card.  The sentiments are also

very handy.

In this sample, I used the squiggle to make a frame and then

repeated the sentiment.  I highlighted the sentiment in

Watermelon wonder with the Work of Art set (p 118).

I added stars cut out with the Stars Framelits (p 173)

and Itty Bitty Accents punch set.  The strip of DSP 

comes from the Timeless Elegance DSP pack on p 143.

Cottage Greetings Part 2

This is the third card from the Cottage Greetings kit,
described on pages 94 and 154.   As mentioned previously
I used the sentiments from the Tin of Cards photopolymer
set on page 110.

This is the SU video on this kit.   Please make sure to
check out additional SU videos on catalog product!

Cottage Greetings Card Kit

 The Cottage Greetings Card Kit, described on pages

94 and 154 of the main catty is a wonderful value.

It enables production of 15 cards for $16.00, plus a

coordinating stamp set.  Page 94 offers the Cottage Greetings

set which is designed for use with Cottage Greetings.

In this example, I used the Tin of Cards set (p 110) instead.

The Cottage Greetings cards are very sophisticated looking,

with wood veneer (poplar) sheets and silver foil envelope inserts.

Currently, this kit is backordered because it is so popular.

You might consider putting it on your "must have list",

for future reference.

I will post the 3rd card from this kit later.

Good As Gold Butterfly

I love to purchase Simply Sent kits from the SU

Clearance rack.  They are wonderful kits and very handy

to have around.  This dotted DSP background is from the 

retired Good as Gold Simply Sent kit.  I used the smaller

butterfly from the Bold Butterfly Framelits on page 172,

to cut out a butterfly.  I place a piece of Gold Foil (p 148)

behind the butterfly and then glued it down.  I added

the gold cord and "merci" sentiment from the kit

and glued this layer down on an Early Espresso card base.

 

Butterfly with Butterfly Basics Set

This card combines the Butterfly Basics set with the 

Butterflies Thinlits on page 172.  I also added a tail to the

butterfly with the Tin of Cards set (p 110).

Pink Pirouette, Melon Mambo, Mossy Meadow and 

Crumb Cake were dragged across the card to make the

color "splotches", which were also spritzed and sponged.

You might also notice butterfly shadows stamped with

the fun foam stamps made with the butterfly framelit.

Stamps Made with Framelits

Did you know that you can make fun foam stamps

out of framelits?  In this example, I cut a piece of fun foam

(2 times to double the thickness) with the Butterflies Thinlits 

on page 172.  I glued them together and used this "stamp"

to stamp Blushing Bride Butterflies on a piece of vanilla c/s.
I added a strip of Tip Top Taupe embossed with the
Boho Chic Textured Embossing Folder and a strip of
Mint Macaroon Lace Ribbon to complete the card.
