Two more Collections

Click to Enlarge

Hi Everybody,

Todays card issuing more of the Craft Die Collections from Sue Wilson.

Todays dies are Granada from the Spanish collection and Hollywood from the California collection  and both are from JGD Crafts

Once again it shows you how these dies can be mixed and matched together for some really pretty results.

I have used Broken China to ink the card while it was still in the die and that produces the  pattern that can be seen around the edge.

Here you can see in close up how the Hollywood die looks when it is layered with the Basic Frames

I have used lots of foam tape and pads to give  depth to the design as flat cards although lovely ...  are not my thing.

The little label with the sentiment is one I had in my stash and is from another set

The stamp is one I have had for a long time and I have no idea where it is from


But the flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and the added glamour is the glitter from Glitter Magic.

All the pearls on the card are from Want2Scrap

More tomorrow ...

Gold Majesty Circles

Click to Enlarge

Hi Everybody,

For todays card I have used elements from several different dies and layered them all together.

The centre piece is from the  Gold Majesty Circles and I have listed them all below.

Each layer is separated with foam pads to give it lots of depth.

I inked through the die with Tattered rose for a soft and peachy look and the base layer is peach and silver foiled card.

The lovely satin ribbon is from Mei Flower and I have used a diamante and pearl centre in the bow.

I have also added in a beautiful pearls and diamante Hatpin that can be removed as a gift and matches the shade of peach perfectly.

There are small teardrop pearls on the centre piece and around the edge of the frame and they are from Want2Scrap

This is a card that looks much better in real life and all the layers give it real dimension.

More tomorrow ...

Combining Die Sets ...

Hi Everybody,

Todays card is a combination of two die  sets from Sue Wilson and it shows that whichever sets you have they will all work together.

The layers are in pink and white and I have used the California Collection  and Seville from the Spanish Collection

The sentiment is stamped in pink and embossed in clear onto one of  the centre pieces from another of the Spanish Collection.

The satin ribbon is from my "Stash" and is wrapped around the layers with a diamante flower in the centre of the bow.

The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and are a mixture of roses, sweetheart blossoms and tulips

The petals are all glamoured up with Glitter Magic  for a really pretty effect.

The full selection of dies are available from JGD Crafts and there are the matching stamps for some of the designs.

Seville and Gilding Flakes

Hi Everybody,

Todays card is using the Seville set from Sue Wilson and is part of her Spanish Collection.

This is such a versatile die that can be used in so many ways... and you will find this die and many others from Sues' other collections at JGD Crafts

Here I have used it with Gilding Flakes for a really opulent look and then layered all the panels together with lots of foam tape.

The ribbon is from my "Stash"

But the fancy centre is one of the pieces from the bracelets that I got in Primark a few weeks ago for a few pounds and dismantled.

It looks very pretty over the knot  and worked out to have cost about 25 pence once the bracelet was pulled apart.... cheap as chips !!

I really like this die set as the lacy effect is right up my street.

I like intricate dies and the filigree look to my cards makes them very feminine ... especially in pastel colors ...
like er ! pink !!

Butterfly Meadow

Hi Everybody,

This lovely stamp  is one that was  created to match the  Spanish Collection of dies from Sue Wilson.

It is a  silhouette stamp and so I have  stamped it in black and embossed it in clear.

Then I blended over it all with Victorian Velvet and Broken China Distress Inks for a soft and faded effect.

The top layers  are die cut  from the Seville set  with the lacy panel cut in half and layered behind the stamped layer.

Both the whole collection of  dies and the matching stamps are  available  from   JGD Crafts 

The only other addition to the card is a little ribbon and some pearls from Want2Scrap

Very simple card and very quick  to do for a really subtle look.
