Christmas Birdie

1 Comment

Hi all. Vera here bringing you a fun project on behalf of The Ton on this Thanksgiving day.

Let’s get on with the project shall we.

For today’s card, I am playing with my favorite birdie set, the Chickadee Greeting set. I stamped the bird using Vanilla Frosted, Crystal Pewter and Smoky Quartz. I also added additional shade using Copic marker. Put the bird aside.

Next, I die cut the scallop panel using the largest scallop frame from Scalloped A2 nested dies. Adhere panel to card. Then I die cut Pine Sprig cover die. Before separating the sprig I ink blended Soft Garden and Bright Fern. At fist, I was going to just do the sprig, but then I saw that I have leftover Berry Branches that I have stamped for previous project. So, I trimmed the berries, basically cutting it apart and arrange it behind the bird.

For the sentiment I die cut the word Christmas from Many Sentiments Holiday cover die from teal cardstock. Then I stamped the word Merry from one of the sentiment from Winter Foliage set.

Finished by adding some enamel drops. I hope you enjoy today’s holiday card inspiration.

Anyway, that’s all from me today. My husband and I are keeping it safe this year and staying in our bubble. So, no special plan for today. As much as it sadden us that there’s no family gathering for us this year, we’re hoping by keeping it safe, we can celebrate many more Thanksgiving with our family in the future.

Well peeps, however you plan to spend your Thanksgiving, I wish you all a very happy & blessed Thanksgiving. Big virtual hugs!

Then I cut out all leaves with coverplate die will cut out the solid leaves with stitching detail. Light grey outline leaves were cut out from cardstock that was coloring with Crystal Pewter.

For the background, I ink blended Cali Blue on A2 sized white cardstock and die cut a white panel with Grid A2 Coverplate Die. I foam mounted the white panel on the blue panel. Next, I added my autumn bouquet using adhesive foam squares.

To create a sentiment, I cut out “thanks” from kraft cardstock with Script Word Dies Bundle. (The shadow base was cut out from white cardstock.) “Many” from Dahlia Bouquet was heat embossed in white on a stripe of kraft cardstock). I added a few Dew Drops to finish it up.

Hello everyone and Happy Friday!  Hope you’re all doing well!  It’s TaeEun here today with a fresh floral card! I used some of the new Grouped Fresh floral stamps and Holiday Coffee dies! Hope my card can brighten your day! 

I started off by cutting the Holiday Coffee from some heavyweight white cardstock. I didn’t use the cream die, instead I used the cap and also cut the straw ( candy cane ).

I cut the body of the cup from some cardstock on which I adhered the Wildflowers washi tape. The border of the cap and the second layer of the straw were ink blended in Hollywood Star. I then assembled the Holiday Coffee cup together and set it aside.

For the background I colored a Canson mixed media paper panel in Peony, Orchid and Cerulean Blue Color Burst and cut it using the largest die from the Scalloped Nested A2 die set. I foam mounted the background panel on a white cardbase and added the cup using some foam tape.

The Grouped Fresh Peonies and Grouped Fresh Dahlias were stamped and cut using the coordinating dies. The colors I used are listed below.

I also cut some leaves using Leafy Bits Coverplate die from some white cardstock and arranged my bouquet as shown in the picture. The sentiment is from Easy Expressions Birthday stamp set. I stamped “you” in Azurite and the rest in Noir and cut it using the coordinating coverplate die. 

I finished off the card  with a few Glass Slippers sequins. 

It’s great to see that the splash of bright colors in the background gives the card a cheerful look! Hope you enjoyed looking my card!

Thank you for stopping by!

Have a great weekend!

Merry Christmas Slimline Card

Hey there, crafty friends!! I hope you’re having a great week!!

I am in full-on Christmas card mode here!! I usually mass produce the same card for everyone, but this year I decided to go through my stash and send the ones that I’ve accumulated!!

I combined several holiday products for this Christmas slimline card. I began by die-cutting the Merry Christmas Sentiment Die once from red glitter cardstock and three times from white cardstock and layered them together. I seriously love the font on this die!! Next, I die-cut several branches from green cardstock using the Pine Sprig Cover Die.

The Plaid Bows were stamped in Soft Garnet, Red Sangria and Lipstick Red Inks, then cut out with the Coordinating Dies. For the background, I die-cut the Slimline Diagonal Stripes Coverplate Die from white cardstock and layered it over a white slimline card base. I adhered the branches and bows in opposite corners, then the sentiment in the center.

I really love the festive elements on the clean, white background!! That Slimline Diagonal Stripes Coverplate Die adds just the right amount of texture!!

Thanks so much for stopping by today!! Enjoy the rest of your week and I’ll see you soon!!

Twist & Pop Holiday Card

3 Comments

Hello everyone!  Hope you’re all doing well!  It’s TaeEun here today with a twist & pop holiday card. I used our new dies to create my scene. 

Let’s start with the card front. 

I started off by creating the background. I colored a watercolor paper panel in purple teal, blue and a bit of black using Gansai Tambi watercolor. After the panel was dry I splattered white opaque ink all over the panel. The snow covered hills was fussy cut from some white cardstock. I ink blended a bit of Cali blue on the hills to show the shadow. 

I cut the pine trees using the Pine Tree coverplate die and stamped them with the Mini Pine Tree stamp in Caribbean Turquoise. I adhered the background panel on a white cardbase. And added the hills and pine trees on it using some foam tape. Crystal Stickles was added to make the hills and trees sparkle. The sentiment is from Easy Expressions Holiday stamp set. I added the Santa’s Sleigh on the teal part of the sky and one red rhinestone on the Rudolph’s nose. 

I cut the base part of the Twist & Pop mechanism from heavyweight white cardstock and adhered it in the inside of the card.  The pop-up panel was cut from a watercolored panel which I colored in the same colors like the front panel.  I splattered white ink on it and white heat embossed the sentiment from Mini Pine Tree stamp set. I cut the hills,  Pine Trees and Deers from some white cardstock. I ink blended the deers in Warm Hazelnut. I created the scene by adhering the elements as shown in the picture. 

This was my second twist & pop card. I shared another twist and pop holiday card for the latest release on my blog. I don’t make interactive cards that often but it was fun to make the twist and pop cards 🙂 ! Below is a short video showing the cards in action!

Thank you so much for stopping by! Hope you enjoyed looking my cards!

So, first card is shaker card. I using Parisian Blue, Azurite and Deep Sapphhire dyes for background. I applied Scalloped A2 Nested Dies for it.

Then I made the window on my background using Dome Snow Globe Dies. I cut next details from this set dies and one detail from Round Snow Globe Dies.

I made the shaker using Midnight Frost Couture Mix. I put a pine tree inside. I will tell you about how I made it under the next card.

I added the title using Hampton White Pigment . I took “Christmas” from Poinsettia Wishes and “merry” from Winter Foliage for it.

Next card with Pine Tree Cover Die. I colored white cardstock with watercolor and applied this die. Then I covered the top of trees with glitter gel. I added watercolor splashes.

I used Holiday Border Dies for the background. I applied Double Pierced Rectangle A2 Nested Dies to the edges of my card.

I cut the deers from Deer Cover Die and placed it among the Pine trees.

Then I added the title from Winter Foliage and decorated my card using sequins.

Hello, everyone! It’s Anna here with a Halloween card!

To create this scene, I used a plethora of The Ton’s products. I started by stamping pumpkins from Round Pumpkins in Peach Blossom, Coralline and Coral Cavern. These images were cut out with Round Pumpkins Coordinating Die. I stamped Ella Pumpkins and Butternut Squash in Beach Blondie, Amber Citrine and Found Topaz and cut out with matching dies. I drew faces on the pumpkins using black Pigma Micron 04 pen.

The small lanterns from Special Day Lanterns were stamped in Caviar and candles were stamped in Smoky Quartz and cut out with Special Day Lanterns Coordinating Dies.

For the background, I cut out a slimline card panel using SLIMLINE – Simple Nested Dies and ink blended Soft Garden, Beach Blondie, Pink Derby and Miami Cool on it. Next, I cut out a black panel with SLIMLINE – Fractured Coverplate Die from glitter black cardstock.

Then I created a sentiment. “BOO” was cut out with Bold Alphas Upper Coverplate Dies and ink blended Soft Amethyst and Iris Blooms on these letters. “!” was made with Tall and Skinny Numbers Coverplate Dies.

Thank you so much for stopping by today! Happy Halloween, friends!

Fall Leaves Slimline Card

Hello, fellow crafters and Happy Halloween!! I hope you are having a great weekend!!

I have a fall slimline card to share today combining several products from some of the recent releases!!

As soon as I got the Grouped Autumn Foliage stamp set, I had a little stamping party!! I stamped the leaves in so many different color combos!! I just couldn’t stop!! Here are the combos that I used: Yellow: Vanilla Frosted Cupcake, Beach Blondie, Amber Citrine; Orange: Peach Blossom, Coralline, Coral Cavern; Lighter Green: Soft Garden, Bright Fern, Deep Emerald; Darker Green: Bright Fern, Deep Emerald, Everglade Moss; Aqua: Lofty Mint, Bright Emerald, Ocean Teal; Teal: Caribbean Turquoise, Hot Tourmaline, Basil Mojito; Brown: Warm Hazelnut, Aspen Cocoa, Dark Roast. The Grouped Autumn Foliage Coordinating Die was used to cut out all of the stamped leaves. These grouped layering dies make it so easy to cut all of these leaves out at once!!

Next, I stamped the large sentiment from the Fill It In Holiday stamp set onto white cardstock with Hot Tourmaline and Coral Cavern inks. I used the smallest die in the Slimline Scalloped Nested Die Set to cut out the sentiment. I also die-cut a panel of white cardstock using one of the scalloped dies in the Slimline Border Die Set and adhered it to a panel of coral cardstock. I arranged and adhered all of the leaves onto the scalloped panel, then popped up the sentiment with foam tape.

I’m really loving coral and teal for fall this year!!

That’s it for me today!! Enjoy the rest of your weekend and I’ll see you soon!!
