Beautiful Stencils

Hi Everybody,

Yesterday was a really successful launch of the New Additions to the Christina Collection and this card features just one of them.

The baby section of dies stamps and stencils has to be one of my favourites and those baby feet are just adorable

The Stencils are new to the range but they can help you to create some really good backgrounds to your designs.

They are a useful item to add to your crating stash and at a really good price 

The video will show you  some ways in which I have used them

The whole  Christina Collection is only available from Craft Stash and they will ship worldwide and the accept PayPal too.

  I will be adding lots more videos in the coming months. 

If you tuned into the Facebook Live show then Thank you for joining us and Congratulations to the winner of the full set of New Additions.

 I am sure that you will enjoy playing with them and make some lovely cards in the process.

The Friday Freebie will be back next week as usual with another card and gift from the magazines

More tomorrow ...

The "Christina Collection"Launch Day

Hi Everybody,

I am super excited to bring to you the next part to my Christina Collection and these are to enhance your cards for other special occasions. 

They are stand alone products in their own rights but of course they are designed to be additions to the Complete Card & Box Die Set which is available from Craft Stash

They are the Love & Marriage, Masculine Additions and Baby Occasions.

 Each one has dies and stamps that will work together but in with these there are also some lovely stencils add to the range.

There are also extra stencils to use with the Layered  Butterflies and Flowers plus  beautiful Flourish that is simply wonderful.
The video features the Love and Marriage die set

I will of course be doing lots more videos using these new additions but this is just one idea of how I have used the baby set

I have used the Complete Card & Box Die Set for the matching box and the whole thing is so very pretty.

But don't forget they work just as well as stand alone items and will enhance delightful smaller cards for you too

Tuesday Tutorial - Spellbinders Heart Leaf Frame

Hi Everybody,

This pretty card is created by simply folding an A4 sheet in half and then cutting in half. 

It will produce two cards for you to decorate as you wish. 

But it fits perfectly the Spellbinders Heart Leaf Frame designed by Marisa Job. 

So a quick and easy card for today

Spellbinders Supplies:

• Heart Leaf Frame
• Blistered Embossing Folder
• Classic Ovals

Other Supplies:

• Card from Papermill Direct
• Flowers from Wild orchid Craft
• Glitter from Glitter Magic
• Ribbon from Mei Flower
• Gold card from Craft Stash

Instructions:

Fold an A4 piece of white card in half along the short side and then cut in half to produce two tent fold cards

Cut another slightly smaller layer to leave a small border around the edges and emboss this piece

With bright gold card cut the Frame die and if you care fully position the die into the centre of a 5x7  panel then you will get all three pieces from the die as shown above.

I will be using the two pieces to the right but the other one will be kept for another project

Savvy Crafting !!

Add the filigree piece to the embossed panel. 

Add the smallest solid piece with foam pads underneath to the centre of the card. 

Wrap with ribbon around the layers before adding to the base card

Stamp and emboss the sentiment of your choice and cut with the oval to fit the verse

Add to the centre with foam pads

Dress with flowers, dot with glue and sprinkle with glitter.

Adhere the bow and the dazzler to cover the knot.
