Hi there, crafty friends. I recently purchased THIS and THIS and made a bunch of cards to send to my crafty friends…
Let’s start with the bear cards…
Isn’t THIS bear the cutest!? THIS die gives him arms that open a bit so you can place whatever you want inside. I thought he could hold some crafty supplies from THIS die set. I cut them from THIS pattern paper and adhered the bear down to a background created with THIS turnabout stamp. I used a variety of Distress Oxide Inks to stamp the backgrounds because the ink is easy to clean off between stamping. I finished off the cards with a white heat embossed sentiment from THIS stamp set.
Here’s a closer look…
I also made some square cards with those fun backgrounds…
I added the dies from THIS die set to a vellum rectangle created from another die in the set so that you could still see the background behind the piece. Vellum is a great way to blur a background a bit and keep the focus on the sentiment. I added heat embossed sentiments from THIS, THIS, and THIS stamp set. They are my favorite stamp sets for crafty sentiments. I finished off the cards by adding each panel to a note card measuring 4.75 x 4.75. I will put them into THESE square envelopes.
Here’s a closer look at each card…
That’s all for today. Thanks so much for joining me. I hope today’s post inspired you to create some cards for your crafty friends. Happy Crafting!
