You Are So Extra Off the Edge Card - Picket Fence Studios

You Are So Extra, Off the Edge Card,Picket Fence Studios,how to, hand made card, Stamps, stamping, die cutting, card making, ilovedoingallthingscrafty,Ink Blending, glitz, paste, feathers,

Hello, my crafty friends!

I literally have an Extra special card to share with you today. When I saw these new dies from the latest Picket Fence Studios release, I knew exactly what I wanted to create. My vision was clear: to elevate the feathers on this card to a whole new level and make it so extra. And what better way to achieve that than an off-the-edge card design.

CARD RECIPE

SO EXTRA

  • Apply a thin layer of Paper Glitz - Sparkle to a white piece of cardstock and allow to dry.
  • Die-cut a couple of layers using the You Are So Extra Word Die, and stack and glue them together. 
  • Die-cut another layer using the Sparkle Glitz layer and glue on top of the previous layers. Set aside.
FEATHERS

  • On a piece of white card stock blend out the colors you want to use for the feathers. I used yellow, pink, and blue ink. 
  • Over the blended inks add a layer of the same Paper Glitz - Sparkle paste. Allow to dry. 
  • Once dry, die-cut the feathers using the More Fanciful Feathers Dies. Glue them onto another black die-cut layer.

CARD BASE
  • Line up the feather dies along the top edge of an A2-sized black card panel. Tape them in place.
  • Line up the top plate of your die-cutting sandwich over the top half of the feather dies, so that only the top of the feathers are cut out.
  • Trim away the extra space around the feathers using a straight edge or a slicer.
  • Line up the colorful feathers from the previous step onto the off-the-edge panel.
  • Glue the You Are So Extra Word layer onto the bottom of the panel.
  • Next, glue the finished panel onto a horizontal A2-sized card base, ensuring that the feather edge aligns with the fold of the card base.
  • Trim off the excess bottom of the card base. This results in a card that extends off the edge, perfectly sized to fit into an A2-sized envelope.
  • Finish the card with some gemstone stickers.

Do you know someone who's just a little extra? I sure do, and I think this card would be perfect for them! Stamp a happy birthday sentiment on the inside or something else to make them smile and send it to them.

Thank you for stopping by and until next time... Happy Crafting!

Recessed Embossing Folder Background Cards - Honey Bee Stamps

Recessed, 3D Embossing Folder, Background, Honey Bee Stamps, how to, hand made card, Stamps, stamping, die cutting, card making, ilovedoingallthingscrafty,Ink Blending,card technique,

Hello friends, 

Today I have a few cards inspired by a couple of my Instagram friends, Enna @ritzyhag and Cindy @crncards If you like my cards today, you will definitely love the inspiration from these two very talented artists!

As you may already know embossing folders have a positive or raised side and a negative or recessed side. I will use the negative or recessed side of the paper for both cards.

CARD RECIPE

  • Place a piece of watercolor cardstock in between the Spring Medley 3D Embossing Folder. I used Canson watercolor paper and gave it a light mist before running it through an embossing/die-cutting machine.
  • Add ink to the recessed side of the embossed design. I used small ink-blending shader brushes and distress oxide inks. 
  • Spray the entire panel with water and allow the inks to mix.
  • To add sparkle to the background, I added some drops of Bee Creative Liquid Shimmer.
  • Allow the panel to completely dry before the next step.

  • Once the embossed panels are completely dry, use the Bee Creative Intense Black Ink Pad and rub the black ink all over the colored recessed side of the panel.
  • Trim the panel down and black ink to the trimmed edges.
  • Glue a black panel to a card base. I left a little white edge around the perimeter of the card.
  • Add foam to the back of the embossed panel and glue it to the card front.
  • Glue the sentiments in place using some foam strips.
  • Finish by adding some gems in the centers of the flowers.

This next card was done the exact same way as the first one only this time I used the Clover Petals 3D Embossing Folder.

 Also, I did not add any Bee Creative Liquid Shimmer and used the Marvelous Moments Gem Stickers.

I love how simple this detailed background was to make. It looks like so much work but it actually came together fairly quickly. The part that took the longest was the drying time of the panels.

Hope you enjoyed these colorful background panels using Embossing Folders. Hopefully, they inspire you to give this technique a try. Remember you can use any water-reactive media to add color to your background. Just have fun!

80s Inspired Birthday Card | Ralph Tyndall Designs + Hero Arts

80s Inspired Birthday Card, Ralph Tyndall Designs, Hero Arts, Ink Blending, Distress Oxide blending, Composition Notebook, how to, hand made card, Stamps, stamping, die cutting, card making, ilovedoingallthingscrafty,

Hello, and happy Monday!


Today I am sharing another card featuring designs from Ralph Tyndall for Hero Arts. If you missed my last card featuring his release make sure you check this out 👉HERE. It is pretty awesome if I do say so myself and if you are a Swiftie you will definitely want to take a peak 😆 So let's move on to this 80s-inspired birthday card, which by the way, was also kinda Taylor Swift inspired too! Can you see it?


CARD RECIPE

Background - HA + RT Composition Notebook Pattern Bold Prints

Rub On Images - HA + RT Notebook Messages Hero Transfers 

                            HA + RT Notebook Icons Hero Transfers

Inside Sentiment - HA + RT Essential Messages Stamp & Cut XL

Black ink -  VersaFine ONYX BLACK Ink

Embossing powder - Detail Black Embossing Powder

Blending brushes - HA Ink Blending Brushes

Gems - HUGS AND KISSES Gem Stickers

Oxide Inks - Squeezed LemonadePicked Raspberry, Salty Ocean

Glossed areas - glossy accents


Note: If you missed out on these supplies from Hero Arts, try  👉Scrapbook.com or Simon Says Stamp


To begin, I stamped out the background using VersaFine ONYX BLACK Ink and then I heat set it using Detail Black Embossing Powder. Next, I added color to the background using 3 colors of Oxide Inks to blend out a rainbow of colors. Once I was done blending, I used a paper towel to rub off the ink left on top of the embossed areas. I then trimmed the panel and glued it to an A2-size card base.

Next, I cut out all the rub-on images I wanted to use from both the HA + RT Notebook Messages Hero Transfers and HA + RT Notebook Icons Hero Transfers. I then rubbed them all onto a white piece of cardstock and cut them out. I left a white border around them all except the Hello.

I then figured out my layout and added the images to the card front, using foam behind some for added dimension. I also added rainbow-colored gems to the blended areas and finished some of the images by adding shine using glossy accents.

To the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the HA + RT Essential Messages Stamp & Cut XL.  Above it, I added a couple more transfer messages.
