Road Trip ~Spellbinders APG June KOTM

Buckle up!  Today's going to be a fun ride!

Becca Feeken has done it again!!  She's come up with the most adorable Pop Up 3D Vignette Road Trip, for this month's Amazing Paper Grace Kit of the Month for Spellbinders .  I had so much fun playing and making cars with these dies.

For my first card, I chose to design the convertible car, looking from the back bumper, creating a road trip scene in the country.    It's hard to tell in the photo's but I used white shimmery cardstock so the car really shines.

For the second card, I have a "pretty in pink" convertible.  Since the car is wider than 4 1/4", I chose to make this second card 5"x7" to accommodate it better.   

I used printed papers and shiny stickers from the June Card Kit of the Month.

 

For my third project, you can see the 3D vignette pieces in action.

Can you see yourself cruising the streets in a sparkly, mint green convertible?  

I can!

My sister has a convertible that she named after my grandmother, Hazel, so this will be going to her. 

I hope you enjoyed today's projects.

Shades of Pink ~ Double D Challenges

Hello friends~ "Shades of Pink", that's the new theme for the challenge that's starting today over at Double D Challenges.

I was delighted with so many ideas for this challenge.  That doesn't always happen.

I had won the entire release from Pink Fresh Studio back before Christmas and I really hadn't had much of a chance to play with any of it, up until this point. 

I pulled out Choose Hope stencils and coordinating die to create this soft card in shades of pink.

The background is embossed using Lush Vines Hot Foil / Embossing Plate.  I don't have a hot foiling machine (dare I say "yet"?) so I'm glad I can use the plates for embossing.  I stenciled the flowers and leaves using Distress Oxide Inks and die cut the flower cluster out using the coordinating die.  I then brushed on just a bit of Stickles Glitter Glue to add shine to the flowers.

The sentiment is cut using Scripted Greetings, in gold and white and the two frames are cut using Poppystamps Pointed Rectangle Frames.

I do hope you'll stop in at Double D Challenges so see more amazing inspiration from my talented teammates and play along.

Spellbinders Invitation ~ Sweet Serenade

Good morning friends~  I'm delighted to bring these cards to you today, that I made using Becca Feeken's Sweet Serenade collection from Spellbinders.

Mercy me, these dies are gorgeous!

I created a set of 4 notecards using Scalloped Symphony Notecard dies.

The Scalloped Notecard die can be a Slimline card base or a card panel. Add the Score Line Insert in the middle to create a sweet 4-inch notecard square. The rest of the dies can be layered and decorated for a wonderful card creation!

The flowers are from the Layered Colorful Blooms die set.  

My next set of notecards were made using the Scalloped Symphony Notecard base and Perfect Harmony Notecard Embellishments.

Perfect Harmony Notecard Embellishments Etched Dies is from the Sweet Serenade Notecards Collection by Becca Feeken. Create lovely toppers for your cards with this set of nine thin metal dies. It also includes two tag designs to accent, and slots to tuck in the end.

I made a little box using the detailed die from the Perfect Symphony Notecard Embellishments to hold a set of 4 cards.  This is a great gift idea!

Spellbinders ~ Add To Cart Collection ~ Party On!

Good morning friends~  I'm delighted to share today's cards with you, that I made using Spellbinders "Party On!" die set, which is part of the Add To Cart collection. 

For both cards, I cut the wine glasses and wine bottle out of Neenah Solar White cardstock and  colored them using copics.  I added a bit of Wink of Stella to the wine in the glasses so it sparkled.  

I added the banner and masks to the second card, this time using the champagne glasses.  

 

This release is by Becky Roberts and it is so fun and innovative! 

This is the perfect set for any celebration, from birthday to wedding, girls night out and anything in between.
