Elegant Kaleidoscope Strips and Borders Card Set | December 2019 Large Die of the Month | Spellbinders


 Elegant Kaleidoscope Strips and Borders Card Set | December 2019 Large Die of the Month | Spellbinders by ilovedoingallthingscrafty.com

Hello crafty friends and happy Thursday! I hope you are all having a good week so far.

Today my cards feature Spellbinders Kaleidoscope Trio Strips and Borders which are in the December Large Die of the Month Kit. To be honest I wasn't too sure if I was going to like these dies but that changed quickly once I started to die cut them out and layer the pieces together. I love the potential and versatility that they offer in combination or when used separately. So needless to say don't judge a die until you've used it, lol!

  CARD DETAILS

For this first card, I began by die cutting the bottom layer from a white piece of cardstock. I ran this flower-like die twice to create two rows of flowers. I then lined up the border die to cut off the bottom. To fancy up the card a little I die cut the top layers using a metallic gold foil (I also did the same as you will see for the other cards) and then glued them in place.

Next, I glued die cut panel to a light blue layer that I had previously adhered to the card base. To embellish I used a medium-sized light blue pearl to the center of each flower and then added larger white pearls to the spaces in between.

The sentiments I used in all of the cards today come from the Deco Borders and Corners Stamp set from Simon Says Stamp.

For this next card, the process was identical to the one above, only this time I did three rows and flipped the middle row to nestle into the row before it.

Once again I used some white pearls to embellish it and stamped out the sentiment from the same set. I just love how the white pearls pick up and reflect the pink color from the paper.

This next card turned out to be my favorite one of all, and to be honest I thought it was the die I was going to like least! But just look at the beautiful detail. So dainty... it reminds me of lace on a vintage wedding dress. Again, my process was the same, only this time I used an Ivory colored cardstock panel.

To embellish, I used vintage pearls to coordinate with the ivory and continue with the vintage look.

So pretty, right!? I think it will make a perfect card for a Wedding.

Big Bold Magnolias Blog Hop | Ink on 3 New Release


Big Bold Magnolias Blog Hop | Ink on 3 New Release by ilovedoingallthingscrafty.com

Hello, my friends!

It has been a little while since my last post, just got back from our summer vacation and have lots to catch up on so will be sharing more with you all soon! Today Ink On 3 is celebrating their newest stamp set Big Bold Magnolias with a Blog Hop. One of the magnolias might look familiar since it's featured in our Heels to You set. Because it's been so popular, Ink On 3 has decided to dedicate an entire stamp set to it!

Plus, we are also officially introducing and welcoming the New Ink On 3 Creative Team! SO excited be amongst all this talent!



CARD DETAILS

Magnolias are just gorgeous and they smell amazing, I just think they are an elegant flower and so I chose to make a very clean elegant looking card.

For my card, I used the largest magnolia stamp from the BIG BOLD MAGNOLIAS set and then built it up by adding some leaves and a flower bud by doing some masking. I used BLACKOUT INK to stamp out the Magnolia and then created a mask from a post-it note using the coordinating die to cover it up. (I'm too lazy to fussy cut it so I would rather use a pen after to connect the lines, plus it saves time ;)

I then stamped the bud as shown and the leaves all around the Magnolia, removed the mask and connected any lines that were missing because of the masking. I then used Copic Markers to color in the images. Here is a picture of the markers I used (missing the 0 Blender Marker).


I then inked up the Fabulous sentiment form the DOGWOOD FLOWER stamp set using JUICY INK and then used GOLD RUSH embossing powder to heat set it.

To complete the sentiment, I die cut the Hello from the DOGWOOD FLOWER coordinating die set and added a few layers of BLACK AS NIGHT embossing powder by inking it up with JUICY INK again.

I finished off the card by painting on a layer of LIQUID PIXIE DUST on the magnolia petals using a small tip water brush pen that I had prefilled with the sparkly goodness.

To the center of the flower, I added glossy accents and then finished the card by adding a few black crystals.

Here is a close-up!  LOVE it
