Discover Hearts Ease in July

Hello Ladies, welcome to my 2nd July post
Today I'm having a play with Couture Creations Hearts Ease Embossing folder and a couple of old favourites for the Van Roe Collection
This is a quick card, so here we go
 


 
 
first cuts a piece of cardstock to suit you card size, making sure it just a little than the base card itself, place the piece into the Hearts Ease Words 5x7 Folder, and run it through you machine

 
 
cut 2 pieces of cardstock and one of Hearts Ease Pattern Paper from the 6x6 pad, into 1" strips all slightly smaller than each other, layer these pieces slightly over each,
 use the Turbo Glue Pen to do this,

 
 
From the Van Roe Collection, I've chosen the Sign Post and Discover Dies, cutting out one of each, here I also simply cut of the smaller sizes, Square nestting dies, using one as a mat,
attaching the Sign Post and Discover, to the top layer, place over last strip as shown in main picture.
Mounting the Square on 3D foam tape, adds a little demenstion to the card.

 
 
To finish off I add a little ribbon, attaching with 6mm Double Sided Tape.
 Hope you like this very quick, simple card

Welcome back Ladies
My 2nd May project, uses Elegant Card CutsKalini Die Collectins


 
Take the Elegant Card Cuts - Malvoisie Corners, cut out the frame, and trim into a square frame, adhere to your photo to frame an object or person
 

I also cut 2 of the flourish corner, that comes with Malvoise, and tucked them under
opposite corner of my photo, A Kalini Flower, I am liking is Sharp Flower, this one I cut 3 times, adhered in layers, spritzed and bent flower petals straight up, then gently opened the flower a little.


From the Kalini Collection, cut 2 of Tall Basket Flowers, layer them over your Malvoise flourishes,
Again I've used a favourite of mine from Falling Blossoms from Kalini, cut one full set and a set leaving of the large flower, layer these flowers petals to make 2 Flowers, gluing them together using the Turbo Glue Pen, once dry spritz with water, and squeeze each layer into the centre,
and then gently reopen the petals


Flowers being made

Loving this cute Kalini die Bird On A Maple Branch. simply cut one from patter Paper, I used the 6x6 Hearts Ease paper Pad, then cut just the Bird, from a different coloured card stock, for the little bit of pop.



Add a title and arrange to suit your style, most of all have fun with it.

Just Because



Morning Ladies
Welcome to my first May project, using Couture Creations
Elegant Card Cuts, Everyday Essentials, Kalini, Amaryllis Collections and Bulk Flowers,


First I took the Cottage Pollen Flower and sprayed it with black spritz, and set it aside to dry


Using the Kalini Falling Blossoms die, I cut one set, glued them together with Turbo Precision Glue Pen, after this was dry, spritzed with water, and pinched the petals one at a time, over and up to the centre, repeating on each set of petals, set asided to dry,
after drying add some Crytal Gemstones to the centre

with the rest of the flowers, I simply pushed them into a soft ink pad, to highlight the tips of each flower, and some I just left white.

Cutting both of the Amaryllis Simones Style dies, this dies set makes lovely faux lace edges



taking the flourish only from Elegant Card Cuts - Mercato Flourish, cut 2 to use as fill, behind your flower spray, also cut a few Everyday Essentials - Strawberry Leaf, added to the spray also

to add that touch of bling we all love, I smiply cut the plastic, from around the
 2mm Crystal Gemstones,and across about half way, gluing the pastic with gemstone on,
 directly to my page

Add a title, and bits and pieces, and your done
have fun, with it
