Alex Syberia Designs November Release | Instagram Hop and Giveaway

Hello friends and Happy Wednesday!

Today I am taking part in an Instagram hop to celebrate Alex Syberia's November Release. Make sure you join me over on Instagram for a chance to win some amazing prizes to their shop! Click👉 HERE to join me.

For my projects today I have created two glamorous shaker cards! To create the foiled backgrounds you will need a Foil system. I used the Spellbinders Hot Foil System along with the Platinum 6 Die Cutting Platform. For negative foil transfers, you will need a solid foil plate. I also find I get the best results with smooth or glossy cardstock.

CARD RECIPE

Background - Brilliant Burst Hot Foil Plate

Sentiment - Feliz Navidad Hot Foil Plate (fussy cut) 

There is a Feliz Navidad Die Set too which I didn't have.

Foil - Aura Glimmer Foil

Rather than throwing out the negative of the foil piece I used for my first card, I used it with the solid foil plate to foil onto another piece of glossy black cardstock resulting in another gorgeous background for my second card. 

CARD RECIPE

Background - Brilliant Burst Hot Foil Plate

Sentiment - Noel Hot Foil Plate & Die Set

Foil - Aura Glimmer Foil (negative)

I created these shakers using these pockets. If you don't have any pre-made ones, (which by the way I helped bring to market 😉, but the A2s are sold out nearly everywhere) you can make my DIY version with some clear plastic or thin acetate. Click HERE to watch the original frameless/infinity shaker.

These cards would also make gorgeous New Year's Eve cards, simply by changing the sentiment. I chose to make these Christmas cards as the background also reminds me of the twinkling holiday lights, but they definitely could be New Year's fireworks too!

I hope you enjoyed today's glamorous Christmas Shakers. Please join me on Instagram for more Alex Syberia Designs' November Release inspiration and their Instagram Hop.

 

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

Alex Syberia Designs November Release | Blog Hop and Giveaway

Hello friends!  

Today I am excited to be taking part in a Blog hop featuring the November Alex Syberia Release. Make sure you leave a comment here and the rest of the stops to qualify for a chance to win some fabulous prizes! If you already started hopping you have just come from Hannelie 's Blog. Stay tuned to find out more about the giveaway and where to Hop next!

So let's dive into the projects I am sharing today.

To create the foiled images you will need a Foil system. I used the Spellbinders Hot Foil System along with the Platinum 6 Die Cutting Platform. For negative foil transfers, you will need a solid foil plate. I also find I get the best results with this cardstock.

CARD RECIPE

Background - Brilliant Burst Hot Foil Plate

Wreath - Holiday Wreath and Branch Stencil and Die Set

Sentiment - Feliz Navidad Hot Foil Plate (fussy cut)

Foil - Aura Glimmer Foil

I absolutely love how this card turned out. It is definitely a lot more glamorous in person. Pictures do not do this card justice as the Aura Glimmer foil gives it so much sparkle and shine!

This next card features the show-stopping Joyful Poinsettia Die Set! It is absolutely gorgeous😍

CARD RECIPE

Flower - Joyful Poinsettia Die Set

Background - Magic Stars Hot Foil Plate

Sentiment - Noel Hot Foil Plate & Die Set

Foil - Aura Glimmer Foil

Just look at this gorgeous Poinsettia Bloom! I used 5 different shades of cardstock and ink-blended the tips of the petals with pink ink. I then added a mist of pink splatters to them. I also added foam in between the layers to give it dimension and curled the tips of the petals.

With the negative of the foiled background from my first card, I was able to use it to create this poinsettia tag. 

TAG RECIPE

Flower - Joyful Poinsettia Die Set

Background - Brilliant Burst Hot Foil Plate (Negative)

Sentiment - Joy Hot Foil Plate & Die Set

Foil - Aura Glimmer Foil

To create the die I just cut the panel into 4x3 rectangle and added the poinsetta to the top. I did not use the last layer of the poinsettia to make it slightly smaller, I then punched a hole through one of the petals and added a ribbon through it to tie on a gift later.

Make sure you check out the Release as I have only showcased a few of the products here today.

Merry And Bright Rainbow Ornaments Christmas Shaker Card | Waffle Flower

Hello friends!

  

Waffle Flower recently sent me some of their new shader brushes to play with. For this project, I used the 1+ shaders to add color and I am so impressed with the results. They add so much color with minimal effort! Here is a visual of all the new brushes. These brushes will definitely elevate your ink-blending game!

Shader Brush 0+ - 15/pk

Shader Brush 1+  - 5/pk

Shader Brush 1+ - Double Ended - 5/pk

Shader Brush 2+ (15/pk)

Shader Brush 3+ (5/pk)

CARD RECIPE

Background - Ornaments Background Foil Plate

Pocket - Shaker Cover - A2 Infinity

Sentiment - Subsentiments Christmas Tree Diecut Sheet

The Background was done by using the Hot Foil System and the Speckled Prism Glimmer Hot Foil Roll.

The true magic of these brushes unfolded as they seamlessly blended vibrant hues of yellow, pink, and blue, creating a mesmerizing rainbow of colors on my canvas. To do this, I partially colored each area with one color using the Ornaments Coloring Stencil and wiped each layer of color before blending on the next color. 

I trust that this Merry And Bright Rainbow Ornaments Christmas Shaker Card has ignited your creative spirit and inspired you to embark on your own artistic journey. Don't forget to check out my latest reel, where the magic of creation unfolds before your eyes.

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

Candy Cane Christmas Card | Honey Bee Stamps

Hello, dear friends, and welcome to a brand new week filled with holiday cheer!

Are you already in the festive spirit, decorating your home for Christmas? I couldn't resist the temptation and decided to transform my space into a winter wonderland last weekend – and now, I simply can't contain my excitement for Christmas! 😆

Today, I'm delighted to showcase a beautiful Christmas card that incorporates some of the delightful products from the latest Honey Bee Stamps Holiday Wishes Release. Let's take a closer look!

CARD RECIPE

Dies - Lovely Layers: Candy Cane Dies

Pattern Paper - Pinstripes & Polka Dots Holiday Pad

Embossing Folder - Snowy Pines - 3D Embossing Folder

Sentiment - Foil Script: Holiday Hot Foil Plate and Honey Cuts

Pearls - Holiday Wishes Pearls

To create the Candy Cane Heart, I inverted one of the candy canes, using the "opposite side" of the die-cut to fashion a captivating mirror image. I then glued the ends together in the shape of a heart. For a touch of added radiance, I brought out my glitter gel pen and adorned the candy canes with extra stripes, adding a sparkle that truly elevates the design.

The sentiment was done by using the Hot Foil System and the Speckled Prism Glimmer Hot Foil Roll.

But the magic doesn't stop there. Elevate your card with those extra details that make all the difference. With a white gel pen, I meticulously added snow, achieving a frosty, winter feel. Blending ink on the leaves added depth and dimension to the design, while Glossy Accents on the berries, topped with Prisma sparkle, bestowed a captivating brilliance. These small but essential embellishments are the secret to transforming an ordinary card into an extraordinary work of art.

I hope you enjoyed this card. If you want to see this process make sure you are following my Instagram as I will share a Reel over there. Thank you for taking the time to visit, and until next time... Happy Crafting!
