Spring 2021 New Release – Sneak Peek Day 2

Sharon Y.2 Comments

Hello crafty friends! We’re thrilled to continue on with our Spring 2021 New Release Sneak Peeks! Today I have for you a super fun interactive card. This card features a new addition to our Stand-Alone dies collection and it’s super easy to make!

The greatest thing about this set of dies is that it creates a pop-up card that folds flat and fits into a 6″ x 6″ square envelope for mailing! It is also super fun to do! This die set comes with a polaroid frame which pops up as you twist on one side of the card base (you’ll see this card in action in the step-by-step video on our YouTube Channel next week ^ . ^).

You can easily decorate both sides of the card with the picture frames and images as I have done here, add the stitched covering panels, include a couple of sentiment tabs and voilà! The cute images you see on this card are from our new stamp set, Aloha Hawaii! This set is super adorable with punny sentiments that you can use for various occasions!

Another great thing about this die set is that you can switch out the polaroid frame as the pop-up element for another, such as your favourite die-cut critter, or a 2-tier birthday cake (which will also be part of the new release by the way), to create different pop-up surprises!

I hope you enjoyed today’s Sneak Peek. Don’t forget that Reveal & Inspiration Chapter begins on 22nd Mar (next Monday). We’ll have wonderful inspirations featuring our new release from our Creative team, and of course, Giveaways – so stay with us!

Anja’s Interactive Underwater Scene!

Sharon Y.Leave a comment

Hello crafty friends! Today Anja is sharing with us a fun card featuring The More We Get Together stamp set and coordinating dies.

All the images were beautifully colored using Copics markers. She cut her two card panels using the largest dies from the Dots Meet Dashes Large Rectangles Overlays and the Cross Stitched and Dots Large Ractangles Overlays. She then used a wave boarder die from My Favourite Things on the bottom panel.

The Cross Stitched and Dots upper panel was blended using Distress Oxide Ink Squeezed Lemonade. And with a sunray stencil, she created gorgeous sunray beams on top of that with the same ink, but this time adding a bit more pressure while blending to get the darker hue.

The wavy panel was blended using Mermaid Lagoon and Broken China. She then added some white pigment ink to extend those sunray beams into the ocean!

I love that she added an action wobbler for the blow fish to make it even more interesting! See the cute fish in action below!

Finally she added the sentiment, “You Blow Meow Away” to finish off!

Thanks Anja! I love this cute underwater scene!

Thanks for stopping by everyone!

Jo’s Bee Happy Shaker Card Video!

Sharon Y.2 Comments

Hi crafty friends. Jo is back to share another beautiful interactive card for us today! Check out her video below or click HERE to watch it over on our YouTube Channel!

This card is so vibrant and bright! I love how the shaker card window shows a bunch of pink hearts as the background, created using the Rain of Hearts stencil.

Most of the images on this card were from the Bee Happy stamp set.

The cute little bow on the lady bee was from the Sweetest Truck stamp set. I love that she stamped out the swirly trail image multiple times on the white background to form a cool pattern. She also added some boarder details to her card using the Dots Meet Dashes Large Rectangle Overlays stand alone die.

I really love the big red heart frame die cut which is a gorgeous accent making the shaker window the focal point of her card!

Thanks Jo! This is such a fun and happy creation!

A Sweet Encouragement Shaker Card With Jo!

Sharon Y.Leave a comment

Hi everyone, happy Wednesday! Jo is back to share a super sweet card with us today! You can watch her video tutorial below or over on our YouTube Channel!

Jo combined images from My BFF, The Sweetest Truck, and the Bee Happy stamp sets.

To create her shaker window, she used both the Dots Meet Dashes Large Rectangles Overlays and the Dots Meet Dashes Small Rectangles Overlays.

I really love the look of the grassy fields. She used tiny rainbows as her shaker elements which matches perfectly with the smiley rainbow from the My BFF stamp set.

The sentiments, “Tomorrow will be a good day” and “I have your back” were both from the My BFF stamp set. Thank you Jo! This scene is so amazing!

Thanks for stopping by, have a great day!

An Underwater Shaker Card with Anja!

Sharon Y.Leave a comment

Hi crafty friends! I’m so excited to share Anja’s shaker card for today! Anja used our recent released The More We Get Together stamp set and coordinating Penguin Perfect Cuts for this card.

All of the images were colored with Copic markers and die cut with the coordinating dies. I love that she used the slimline card in its portrait orientation so that she can arrange her scene in a tiered manner!

She die cut two slimline panels, and one of which had two windows for her shaker element. I love the beautifully blended turquoise tones on her card panels. Blueprint Sketch Distress Oxide Ink was used on the back panel and Peacock Feather on the top panel.

I love the adorable seal on the ice berg floating at the very top with its thumbs up! As you look further down, you will see a bunch of adorable sea creatures including some tiny fishes, cuttle fishes and even a jelly fish!

Other accessory images like the seaweed, coral reefs and sea shell, just make the scene so much fuller and cuter!

To finish off, she added white gel pen highlights. Thank you Anja for this fun and awesome creation!

Thanks for stopping by, hope you like this example featuring The More We Get Together stamps and its coordinating Penguin Perfect Cuts!
