Watch this video to learn how to create shaped baby cards the EZ way. https://youtu.be/FZhOcxh4kgY
Instructions:
My
card is 5 X 7. Make card base and cover
with a piece of the paper from the collection.
Stamp the little sheep and the rabbit onto watercolor paper using London
Fog Memento Ink. Use the water brush and
Distress ink to color the little images.
Once colored set aside to dry and then using the coordinating die cut
out the images. Add some 85 glitter to
the images and set aside to dry.
Cut
out circle frames using the circle dies and also cut a piece of the paper
collection to fit the back of the frames.
Glue the images into the circles and allow to dry. Cut out two of the dies from the Butterfly
Kisses dies and glue the circle frames to these. Using the Double Dots, adhere to the top of
the card.
Cut
two pieces of the Sweetheart Borders Dies and a 3/4” piece of the paper
collection and glue these together making a lovely lacy border for the bottom
of the card. Stamp sentiment onto a
piece of the paper collection and then cut out using the ovals dies. Next cut a frame out of cardstock using the
oval dies. Glue the sentiment piece
behind the oval frame and using Double Dots, adhere over the lace piece.
Stamp
the flowers using Elderberry Memento Ink, color the flowers using Lilac Posies
Memento Ink. Cut out the flowers using
coordinating dies. Lay flower petals
onto the mold, spritz with water and cover with the top piece of the mold and
run this through the die cutting machine.
Lay them out to dry. I use the
Deluxe Flower Shaping kit to push down on the center of the flowers giving the
extra added dimension. Apply Prills to
the center of the flowers and allow to dry.
I use the Distress Crackle Paint to the edges of the flowers and add the
Crystal Clear glitter. Again, allow the
flowers to dry. I used hot glue to
adhere to the front of the card.

Instructions:
My
card is 5 X 7. I went on youtube and
found instructions for a large side step card and cut it out and scored. There are many videos available, just pick
one you like and follow along. Once I
had the base constructed I measured and cut pieces of the pretty paper
collection and covered the card.
Stamp
the Air Balloon onto watercolor paper using Magenta Hue Ink. I colored the image using Zig Clean Color
Real Brush Markers and the water brush.
Allow the image to dry and then I used the coordinating die to cut it
out. Now you can add the glitter and set
aside to dry. I picked a piece of the
paper collection and stamped the Baby Girl stamp with Magenta Hue Ink and then
cut it out using the coordinating die to fit into the base of the balloon. I used a piece of a shipping box and glued to
the back of the sign to give it dimension and then I glued it down into
place. I stamped the little bear with
Toffee Crunch Memento Ink and used the Zig Clean Color Brush Markers and the
water brush to color then I set him aside to dry. Once dry, use the coordinating die and cut
out. Now add glitter and allow that to
dry. Glue him into the base of the Air
Balloon.
I
stamped the elephant with London Fog Memento Ink, I stamped the Raccoon using
Memento Rich Cocoa Ink and the little pig was stamped using Magenta Hue
Archival Ink. I used Zig Clean Color
Brush Markers and the Water Brush to color the little animals and then I
allowed them to dry. Using the coordinating
dies I cut them out and then I added glitter and then allowed that to dry. Once dry I glued them down to the steps. Tie a bow with the white ribbon and using
scor-tape and glue adhere it to the card.
Using Lilac Posies Memento Ink, I stamped the sentiment onto the first
step of the card. The card is finished!

On My Desk This Morning....
Let me just say I have been up since 3 AM...it seems to have become my new norm so I guess I just need to start my day early now. I think this is what happens when you get old...you either sleep until 9AM or you wake at 3AM. Either way, I'm not a fan. My latest time to wake has been 6 and I felt like I had missed half of the day so this may all be my fault in some strange way. Anyway, I took the time to finish a card I have been working with. I used Heartfelt Creations products (what else is new) and this is what is on my desk this morning....
My card is featuring the Heartfelt Creations Wild Rose flower stamps, dies and mold! The background diecut is the Stairway Gardens from Heartfelt Creations as well! Do you know why I purchased this 6 X 6 square die? It was for the pretty scallop around the edges but oh my goodness was I asleep at the wheel! I have found a beautiful diecut that I adore behind flowers on a card front! It just goes to show you, you never know until you get it into your hands.
That's it for me this morning...I'm off for my second cup of coffee and to think about really starting my day! The little birds outside my window have been singing since 5:30 AM! I love to hear them. Have a lovely weekend!

Heartfelt Creations Wednesday.....
I made a quick card to share with you this morning using theThe Cherry Blossom Retreat Collection.
For more tips on creating with the Cherry Blossom Retreat collection, watch the tutorial at https://youtu.be/OaA2da5H-E0.
Create the shaped card by laying the die to hang over the folded cardstock which creates a hinge for the card base. Next cut the shape again using white cardstock and then cut one out of a coordinating paper. Glue all together to form the card base. Next cut the cage design out of white cardstock and glue to the card base. The card is pretty here but we are going to use these Heartfelt products to dress it up a bit.
Stamp the flower petals with Archival Magenta Hue ink. I used Memento Cantaloupe ink and the Dove Blender pen to add color to the center of the petals then I used a Stack & Store Dauber to add Magenta Hue to the edges of the petals. I stamped the leaves in Archival Fern Green then colored them with Memento Bamboo Leaves. Now stamp the little birds and the branch they are sitting on in Jet Black Archival Ink. Color using Archival Sky Blue and Magenta Hue for the little birds and Memento Toffee Crunch. Die cut all the pieces and place onto the mold. Spritz with water and close the mold and run through the die cut machine. Set aside to dry. Add the Prills to the center of the flowers and allow to dry. When the flowers and birds are dry use the Designer Dries Clear Glue and Rajni Chawla's Crystal Clear to dust the pieces. Allow to dry and then watch the magic happen!
Cut out the sentiment and glue one of the little birds to it and glue to the card front. Decide where you want all the elements and use hot glue to glue everything down.
Other Supplies: White Cardstock, Die Cut Machine, Hot Glue Gun

On My Desk This Morning......
Good morning friends! I'm here to share with you what's on my desk this morning. I wanted to use some Heartfelt Creations Oakberry Lane flowers. These flowers can be shaped and colored in many different ways. I'm showing a 4 1/2 X 7 card with a pretty piece of paper from the Classic Petunia Collection. I distressed the edges of the paper and then did a quick bit of color using Archival Cactus Flower. Next I did a die cut layer using HCD1-7248 Regal frame and Accents Die. I did a coordinating piece of paper from the collection just to add a pop of color inside the die pieces.
The leaves were stamped in Archival Ink Fern Green and colored with Archival Ink Leaf Green. Then of course lots and lots of glitter on leaves as well as the flowers.
Well that is it for me this morning. The weekend is coming so have a good one!

For ideas on creating with the Wild Rose Collection: https://youtu.be/2ALPhFnT-qI For more tips on creating with the Window Scene cards & dies, watch the tutorial at https://youtu.be/LnM95GR92ao. Other Products:Paper Trimmer, Hot Glue Gun, Die Cutting Machine, Magnets, Water Mister Bottle, Dimensional Packing Material, White Cardstock Instructions:My card is 6 X 6. Stamp flower petals using Archival Buttercup and Magenta Hue ink. I used Magenta Hue to color the pink flowers and Brilliance Sunflower Yellow for the yellow flowers. I also used a hint of Brilliance Pearlescent Coral on the tips of the pink flowers to achieve the look I wanted. Cut out the petals using the coordinating dies. Spray the petals with water and use the Flower Shaping Tools to break down the fibers of the paper and shape. Set aside to dry. Once dry hot glue layers of petals to form the flowers. Add Prills to the center of the flowers and set aside to dry. Once dry add Crystal Clear glitter to the flowers and allow this to dry. Stamp the leaves with Archival Fern Green ink and color using Vivid Chartreuse and Bamboo Leaves. Use the coordinating dies to cut out the leaves. Spritz the leaves with water and use the flower shaping tools to shape then set aside to dry. Once dry I added the #85 glitter to them and set aside to dry. Now it’s time to start working with the shaped Shutter Fold Card. Pick a 6 X 6 card front and trim it down 1/4” and glue to the inside of the card. Find a sentiment on the paper and cut out and apply a piece of dimensional shipping box and then glue to another sign from the paper. (I always save my shipping boxes for using for dimension) Glue to the inside of the card. Using the circle die from the Rounded Sunlight Window Dies, cut out a piece of the paper collection. Using one of the decorative dies from the Rounded Eyelet Window Dies cut out each side of the circle shaped piece of the paper collection. Now use the paper trimmer and cut in half so that it fits each side of the card front. Next use one of the dies to cut a piece of plain paper to fit behind the decorative piece and adhere behind. Edge each piece with Magenta Hue ink to add a bit of color to the pieces. Apply a magnet to the side of the card front then glue the decorative piece of paper to the side of the card front. Using the smaller circle die of the Rounded Window Frame Die, cut a piece of white cardstock. Now cut a circle of the decorative paper using the small circle die. Adhere a magnet to the back of the white cardstock piece and then cover it with the circle piece of paper. Apply glitter to the edges of the white cardstock piece and then glue one side to one side of the card front. Go around the piece with Magenta Hue ink to add color. Now with the magnets installed it will close and hold the card together. You can apply the flowers to the decorative circle using hot glue. The card is finished |
