Jaded Blossom's May Release Blog Hop!

Hey Everyone!  

Welcome to Jaded Blossom's May Stamp Release Blog Hop.  

If you're here from Lee-Ann's Blog you're in the right place, if you're just passing through start at the beginning because you don't want to miss a thing.  I will also have the complete line up at the bottom.
Here is a look at what I made:

First up is a sweet little birthday card!

I used the Stitched Square Dies to cut out some teal blue cardstock as well as some Kraft cardstock. I used the Tropical Dies to create some hills on my Kraft cardstock and layered them all together onto the teal blue square. I used the Make A Splash Gnomie stamp set to stamp my greeting using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I tucked some seaweed that I cut out using the Gnome Dies: Mermaid Add Ons in between the sand layers and added that fun clam shell that I created using the Fancy Shell Die. I die cut a piece of vellum using the Scallop Square Dies, added my scene on top & popped up the entire piece onto a white 4.25" square card base. 

Next, I wanted to create a little treat box to accompany my card.

Super cute right?

I started by die cutting my box using white cardstock and the Handled Gift Box Die. I used the stitched rectangle that comes with the Handled Gift Box Die as a base for my scene. I die cut some blue patterned paper to act as my water and some Kraft cardstock to act as my ocean floor, using the Tropical dies to create the top sand edge. I used some distress ink to ink the edges and popped it up onto my blue layer with foam tape. I kept the foam tape towards the middle/bottom of the sand so that I could easily tuck my decorative elements in. I used the Gnome Dies: Mermaid Add Ons to cut out my seaweed, coral, shell and mermaid and layered them onto my stitched rectangle piece. Before adhering it to the front of my box, I laid it on my box and positioned my stamp so I knew where the sentiment from the Mermaid To Be Friends stamp set fit best. Once it was stamped, I adhered my scene and built my box. I used the Bow Dies to create a double bow and glued it to a mini clothespin as a way to keep my box closed. I added some fun little enamel shapes as well as some Nuvo drops to the front.

 

I added some paper shred and salt water taffy to the inside.

I think this turned out to be a fun little gift and oh so cute!

And of course we have to have a deal for you right?

Here is a look at the card that I created to share with you today:

I used some distress oxide inks in the colors Wilted Violet and Peacock Feathers along with the freebie stencil, Mermaid Silhouette, to create my background. Once the ink had dried, I used the Card Mat Dies to cut it out & added it to a white top folding card base. I stamped my sentiment using the Mermaid To Be Friends stamp set, layering the inks to give an ombre effect, and then cut it out using the Label Shape Dies. I popped it up with foam tape onto my purple piece, also cut using the Label Shape Dies and adhered it to my card. I completed my card by using the Embellishment Clusters Die (I LOVE this new die!!), diecutting some hearts from silver glitter cardstock and adding them around my sentiment. 

I love how it turned out!!

Here is a look at the card that I created to share with you today:

Isn't this mermaid stamp from the Mermaid To Be Friends stamp set the sweetest?

This card was so super simple to make!

I used the Card Mat Dies to cut out a piece of white cardstock and stamped my sentiment from the Mermaid To Be Friends stamp set at a slight angle. I used the Card Layer Dies 2 to cut my patterned paper and added that to my card front, making sure the sentiment was between the papers. I cut a thin strip of striped paper and added that along the top edge of the bottom layer for a little visual interest. I stamped my mermaid and colored her with my Copic markers. I then used the coordinating Mermaid To Be Friends Outline Dies to cut her out and popped her up with foam tape. I popped up my card mat layer onto a white A2 top folding card and added a few sequins and enamel hearts to complete the look. 

Copic Colors Used:

--Skin: E50, E51, E21, R20, R00--

Here is a look at the card that I created to share with you today...

 I started by making an A2 cardbase using white cardstock and adding some scallops that I cut out using the Border Dies. I wanted to create a scene down the middle of the card so I used the Rectangle Dies 2 to die cut some water patterned paper and added that to the middle of my card, layering it on top of the scallop pieces. I used the Rectangle Dies 2 and the Border Dies 2 to create my ocean floor layers and added them to my card towards the bottom. Once my underwater backdrop was created, I started the really fun part...decorating! I used the Gnome Dies: Mermaid Add Ons to die cut some seaweed, tucking it between the layers of ocean floor. I also added a little seahorse using the Gnome Dies: Mermaid Add Ons. I used the Girl Gnome Dies and Gnome Dies: Mermaid Add Ons to create my mermaid and popped her up with foam tape onto the front of my card. I stamped my sentiment from the Make A Splash Gnomie onto a piece of Kraft cardstock and used the coordinating Make A Splash Gnomie Outline Dies to cut it out. I popped it up with foam tape and added a piece of coral that I cut out using the Gnome Dies: Mermaid Add Ons behind it. I completed my card with a few little pearls on her hat.

 I had so much fun putting this little mermaid gnome together!

Mother's Day

Hi everyone and happy Wednesday!

Today is my day to post over at the Jaded Blossom blog 

and I wanted to share the Mother's Day card that I made for my mom.

Here is a look at what I created: 

I created an A2 card base using white cardstock and added a piece of white cardstock that I embossed with a polka dot embossing folder on top. I used the Rectangle Internal Scallops to die cut a piece of pink paper and added that to my card front. I then used the Rounded Tag Die and cut out my tag, once in Vellum and again in Pink Plaid, adhered the two pieces together and popped it up onto my card with foam tape. I die cut a hole protector using the Treat Tag Die and added that to my tag. I used the Floral Frame With Outline Die for my focal piece, inking it with black Versafine ink and heat embossed it with clear embossing powder. I did some simple Copic coloring before using the coordinating die to cut it out. I popped it up onto my tag with foam tape and added a few sequins and Nuvo drops to the tag as well. I completed my card with a fun little bow that I created using Crochet thread. I left the tails extra long and created some little loops, gluing in place here and there to secure them. 

I think this turned out so pretty!

Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today!

I appreciate it so much!

I hope you have a great crafty day!
