His and Her Gift Card Holders

Hello wonderful crafty friends!  It is Lisa here with you today sharing some cute his and her Holiday Gift Card Holders.  I don't know about you, but I tend to have quite a few gift cards to give out during the Holidays and I always want something cute to give them in, so the recipient still feels like they have something to open, you know what I mean?  And I think these little guys are just the thing...

To decorate my gift card holders I used the Packaged Pretty Die Set for the front with Fancy Pants Patterned Paper.

For the back of my gift card holders I used the Mini Banner Die Set and adhered them on their side before stamping my sentiments from the Banner Sentiments 2 Stamp Set.

Yes, this is a super easy project, but isn't that just what we need during the Holidays when we can't seem to find enough time for anything?  Love it!

Happy crafting and thanks so much for stopping by!

No Matter How Old...

I am totally loving the snarky sentiments in the new Snarky Birthday Sentiments stamp set!  It's Lisa here with you today, and I'm sharing this totally girly and fun Birthday card with all of you...

To create this card I started by stamping my fun background with the Retro Patterns Stamp Set.  Next I used various spray mists to splatter colors all over, and set this to the side to dry.  I then stamped my sentiment from the Snarky Birthday Sentiments Stamp Set onto pink paper and added the drink images from the Scripty Sentiments.  Finally I finished this off with a sparkly black bow cut with the Packaged Pretty Die Set.

Thanks so much for stopping by today and Happy Crafting!

Birthday Time!!!

Hello, hello!  It is Lisa here and as per usual on Wednesdays I am here to share a little fun and inspiration using the amazing Mint Owl Studio Goodies, woot woot!!!  Today I am sharing a Birthday Shaker Card that I've created with lots of newer released products...

To create this card I started by die cutting all of the pieces I would need from the Packaged Pretty Dies to create the shaker gift box.  Once that was put together I set it aside and stamped a strip of stars from the Birthday Bash set in yellow.  I then adhered the present and stamped the sentiment from the Party Pals set.  ( I should also note that I did cut the inside of the present out to create the shaker, as this die is one full cut.)

Thanks so much for stopping by and Happy Crafting!

Get Well Soon...

Hello!  It's Lisa here with you today and I'm excited to share a Get Well Card I've created with some of the newly released Die Cuts and Stamps...

To create this card I started with the new Packaged Pretty Die Cuts and die cut the square several times in each color.  I then laid them out onto my cardbase and trimmed the excess on all sides.  Next I stamped the sentiment from the Banner's 1 Stamp Set on one of the squares and finished it with ribbon and enamel dots.

Thanks so much for stopping by today and Happy Crafting!

Bunch of Birthday Wishes

Hi everyone! It's Cassie here, and I'll be showing you a fun card I made using some of the newly released stamps from this month! I used Birthday Bash stamp set as well as the Packaged Pretty dies. From an older release I also used the Ice Cream Cone stencil. Let's take a look at the card!

I started this card by cutting a panel down to 4 1/4 x 5 1/2. Then I took the square die from Packaged Pretty and placed it where I wanted my cuts to be. I also cut a square out of some aqua paper that went with my color scheme. I stamped the balloons on one of the squares and colored them in using my Copics. Then I stamped the sentiment on the aqua square.

Before I put the whole thing together I placed my stencil over the panel and used some Distress Ink and an ink blended to give the background a pattern. I used two colors, and shifted the stencil slightly when doing the second color so both colors could be seen. Once that was done I put all the pieces together like a puzzle on a card base.

Once I added some glossy accents to the balloons the card was finished! I love how bright this card is. The balloons are so fun because they can be colored to match any card or theme!

That's it for me today, but I will see you all again soon with another card! Have a great week!
