Hello creative people, I hope you are doing well today. Don't fall off your chair because I've posted two days in a row.
I had the pleasure to Guest Design for
Crealies again. I created a couple of cards using one of the new gorgeous tag die sets, along with other beautiful dies and stamps. These designs were shown at the
Crealies blog yesterday.
I used
Tag & Label die set - No 7 to create a lovely shaped card. I scored and folded navy card stock and taped (with removable tape) the left cutting side of the one of the larger dies slightly over the fold so that I ended up with a lovely shaped folded card.
I used the beautiful
Christmas Angel of Light by Chocolate Baroque as the main image:
I left the inside panel blank to write Christmas Greetings.
The angel on the front tag panel was stamped with a navy blue dye ink and coloured with Distress Inks using my craft mat, a brush and water. I also stamped with
Bits & Pieces stamp No.37 above and below the angel.
I used
Uno No 13 and
Set of 3 No 13 die sets to create the layered Poinsettias. I die cut them from white card stock, coloured the layers with Distress Inks using a finger dauber and molded the backs with a stylus on a foam mat. I also added glitter here and there.
I created a second card (below) with the same tag die set along with other dies and stamps. The
Bits & Pieces stamps are fantastic for creating backgrounds, I have many of them :)
I used the same technique to create the folded card above. I coloured the background with Distress Inks and water on my craft mat and stamped it with
Bits & Pieces stamp No.37 and
Bits & Pieces stamp No 48.
Uno No 13 and
Set of 3 No 13 die sets were used again to create the layered Poinsettias and I also stamped them with
Bits & Pieces stamp No 53 to create 'texture' (difficult to see in the photograph). I used
Duo Die 31 and
Duo Die 31A to create the leaves.
And below are pictures of the Crealie Dies used:
Thanks for stopping by and have a great week,
