Thank You Card #1



Hope you had a very good Christmas. After Christmas, I made Thank You cards.  I just love the Tutti Designs Swirling Thanks die now available at The Rubber Buggy.  I cut this die with white paper and colored it with Copic markers.  
Tutti Designs Swirling Thanks


I always love to add flowers and ribbon/bow to each of my cards.  
Blue Fern Studio - Sweet Heart has this gorgeous paper with a printed ribbon on the side and I just added a seam binding bow that almost matches this colored ribbon.

Blue Fern Studio - Sweet Heart
Heartfelt Creations flowers are so much fun to make.  I used the Heartfelt Creations Classic Rose and Heartfelt Creations Blushing Rose dies and stamps and colored the roses and leaves with Copic Markers but first I stamped the flowers in dark pink before using lighter Copic pink markers.  



My favorite butterfly die is the Poppy Stamp Theo Butterfly.   I added NUVO Crystal Drops Oyster White on the center of the butterfly, center of one rose and  each little flower on the Tutti Designs Swirling Thanks die cut.  Take a closer look at the NUVO Crystal Drops Oyster White dots- very gorgeous!!!

Butterfly Love and Hugs

Welcome back and today, I am excited to share with you two gorgeous 
Tutti Designs dies, Swirly Hugs and Heart Garden.  I just love the Tutti Designs new swirly word dies and gorgeous heart dies in the October and November new releases.  





I cut one Heart Garden die with gold metallic card stock and the other with white card stock.
I colored the white die cut with Copic markers and added pink glitter glue to the hearts and 3mm flat back pearls to the center of the flowers.  





 I cut a sample and outlined the butterflies in red for you that will be cut out from the gold metallic card stock and glued to the heart.  I added a yellow and white plaid scalloped heart behind the Heart Garden die cut to make this Heart Garden die cut stand out.


I cut the Swirling Hugs with gold card stock and cut part of the swirls to fit this on the card.  I embossed the white/gold shimmer card stock and added a square frame around the card.

Merry Christmas Card

 I hope your family and you will have a Very Merry Christmas.

Hopefully, you gave Santa your list after checking out all of the gorgeous supplies, dies, and stamps at The Rubber Buggy on-line store.  Don't forget the wonderful tools like the Misti-My Sweet Petunia stamp tools that come in different sizes.  If you never had the Misti stamp tool and Santa gave you one, you will ask yourself
"WHY DIDN'T ASK SANTA A LONG TIME AGO FOR THIS!!!"

I struggled with stamps and ink until I got the Misti Stamp Tool.  No mistakes or light stamping now!!!

 I made this card using the gorgeous Tattered Lace Essential Book die set.  I just got die set last month from 
The Rubber Buggy, and retailers struggle getting this die from Tattered Lace since it is in high demand.  I would suggest getting it now before The Rubber Buggy is out of this die set.   Just look at all of the dies in this set and the different sizes of books you could make along with the very adorable book marker dies.

 Both of the saying and the picture of the little girl with the umbrella are from the beautiful
Pion Design-Images from the Past-The Night Before Christmas II.
The gorgeous green patterned paper is from the 
Heartfelt Creation-Snow Kissed Collection

I added the NUVO-Glitter Paste-Moonstone to this photo.  Doesn't this glitter paste look so much like snow.  Also, I like how this same glitter lights up the trees behind the girl.

I love making my flowers and I used the Memory Box-Holiday Poinsettia die.  I added Copic Marker Green/Yellow to the poinsettia and added NUVO-Golden Sunset to the center.

For those who have been following my postings every Saturday, I have been using the Heartfelt Creations Celebrate the Season Gift Wrapped Stamp Set on almost all of my Christmas cards.  Isn't this gorgeous and I love the sentiments.

Heart Flower Garden

 Welcome back and I am excited to share with you a new November Tutti Designs released die called Heart Flower Garden.  Isn't this die with the cute little heart flowers and birds adorable!  

Cut out with white/gold shimmer cardstock

 First, I used green card stock to cut the Heart Flower Garden die.  Then I used the same die and cut out different pink pattern paper for each heart and glued it on the green die cut.
I added pink glitter glue to one heart and Ranger Pearl drops to the other hearts.  I cut this die again using a light cream pattern paper and cut out the birds and glued it onto the green die cut.  

I added a pink bow with a heart rhinestone ribbon buckle slider in the center of the Heart Flower Garden die.  I added 3mm flat back white pearls on the hearts and on the die cut behind the bow.  

You'll want to be sure to pop over to the Tutti Designs Store and check out all the new November beautiful diesYou can order these gorgeous dies from Tutti Designs on-line store or the wonderful stores and companies that carries Tutti Designs dies.

Christmas Card for Hudler's Family



Welcome back to our new Let's Craft and Create Challenge #120-Christmas'.  Come join us and enter your card or project with us and share you information.  Also, you might become our next winner for a prize.

I love personalizing cards and this is a very cute picture that I took of my son and future daughter-in-law's new Golden Retriever puppy that my husband and I got them.  I took several pictures and wanted to make a Christmas card for them with their little new boy puppy named Hudler.  

All of my Heartfelt Creations supplies and dies came from 
The Rubber Buggy on-line store.  After a few tries of making a paw from the Heartfelt Creations Pampered Pooch dies and stamps, I found this to be the easiest by taping the two paw dies together to make the paw and cut this with white card stock.  
Take the outside paw die frame and cute it in dark brown and glue the white paw on top of the brown paw.  (Shown below).

  

Inside of Card
Heartfelt Creations Pampered Pooch Pal Dies
On this card, I used following dies from these sets:  Collar, paw prints, large bone, and small paw print.  I used the Heartfelt Creations Paw-Fect Pooch Stamp set for the bones and the dogs (located inside the card).  I cut the collar out with cream colored card stock and sponged it with Ranger Distress Antique Linen ink and embossed the buckle with copper embossing powder.  I added some stitches using a black ink pen.   I used colored pencils to color the dogs since I wanted to show the black stamped ink.

Heartfelt Creations Paw-Feet Pooch Die

I just love the little paw print die that somes in this set.  I used the paw print die twice on the inside of the card.  Since there were some black ink spots, I covered the ink spots by cutting out some small dog bones in the Heartfelt Creations Pamper Pooch Card stock Collection.

Christmas Tutti Designs

 I wanted to share with you Christmas cards that I made this year with Tutti Designs dies for Tutti Designs.  The Rubby Buggy on-line store carries these beautiful Tutti Designs dies.   You will be able to find each die on The Rubby Buggy store by clicking on the RED TITLE below each card.  

Tutti Designs Viney Christmas Tree
I cut it out twice using gold and green mirror card stock.  I cut the deer and Christmas out and glued it on the green mirror card stock as well as the Joy on top and star.  I added Ranger red glitter glue on the bulbs as well as the deer's noses.  






Tutti Designs Dove Circle
I cut a circle and embossed the Merry Christmas sentiment.  I used silver mirror card stock for the Tutti Designs Dove Circle and frame.  I used 3D foam tape to attached the circle with the die cut on the card.  

I added 3mm flat back pearls on the frame.  The bow is 1.5" wide May Arts Crushed white ribbon and used a rhinestone/pearl buckled ribbon in the middle.  I attached the bow with 1" wide adhesive double-sided tape. 



Tutti Designs Kitty Window
Since Christmas is around the corner, I decided to cut this Kitty Window die with gold metallic card stock.  I added a scene behind the die and cut out a couple branches from the die cut to show more of the scene.  On the windowsill where the cats are sitting, I glued 
red roses, green pine twigs and a white bow.  



Tutti Designs Shining Candle

As you know by now, I love the 3D look and layers for many of my cards.   I like to start with the main focus like the Shining Candle before figuring out what to do with the rest of the card.   I cut the Shining Candle die four times using white shimmer card stock and gold, red and green mirror card stock.  I cut out poinsettia flowers, pine leaves and white candle and glue each one on the gold mirror card stock.  For those who don't want to cut and glue so much, just cut out the candle using white shimmer card stock and color it or just use gold mirror card stock if you have a white back ground.   The gorgeous patterned paper is the Graphic 45 Christmas Carol from The Rubber Buggy.



Tutti Designs Poinsettia Corner

 I cut this die out using red mirror card stock and glued it on the embossed white card stock.  I added 3mm flat back pearls to the poinsettias.
