Thank You card for Anne and the Scrapy Land Design Team

At this time, I regret for awhile that  this will be my last card for the Scrapy Land  challenges at this time.  I have a grand son  born in May and I will be babysitting him from now on while my daughter returns back to work.  Therefore, I will be spending most of my time with him and very little time for awhile in my craft room until he gets about 6 months older and beginning to take good naps since now he only take baby power naps during the day any where from 10 minutes up to 40 minutes.

I want to thank Anne and the wonderful designers on this team for their fantastic support and I learned so much from all of you and thoroughly enjoyed our discussions and seeing your gorgeous cards and projects. I regret leaving since I loved everything about what we did besides the super great customer service, support and care from Scrapy Land, Anne and the design team. I recommend any one who loves these gorgeous dies and looking to be on a design team, this is a number one place to be besides the super customer service and gorgeous dies from the Scrapy Land store.  

Also, the bloggers who put their cards on the challenges or made a comment on my cards, I want to especially thank you for all that you do.

Well, back to my card.  I love working with the Sue Wilson Designs dies and I used three of the brand dies on this card:  Sue Wilson Designs Grace, Delicate Garden and Nobel Pierced Squares.  I use the Sue Wilson Pierced dies to make shadow frames or any frames for my cards.  Try using the large and two sizes smaller  dies to make larger frames.  I did this on the white frame and then just used one size smaller die with the larger die to make the lavender frame. 

Other supplies used:

Scrapy Land has over 40 brands of dies.  You can see them all here.  I am excited to share with you my card with two new Tattered dies from Scrapy Land, the Sailing Ship and Compass. 

Tattered Lace Compass

Tattered Lace Sailing Ship

I embossed the Sue Wilson Designs Double Pierced Square frame with a variety of colors to give it the antique, worn out look.  I glued on rope on the frame and added a brad in the middle of the compass.  I colored the compass with Copic markers and embossed part of the compass with bronze Ranger Metal Art embossing powder.  I has to use an embossing pin on the compass before embossing it.  

I didn't have a good white colored pen so I used white liquid typing eraser for the ship.

Merry Christmas

 Welcome to our exciting Scrapy Land Challenge, "Emboss It" using a die.  
Scrapy Land on-line store is carrying the new and gorgeous Tutti Designs dies.  This is the beautiful Tutti Designs Dove Circle die.  Isn't this Tutti Designs Dove Circle a beautiful die! This die would also be beautiful on a wedding card, Easter or just any card.

Tutti Designs Dove Circle Die

 I used a gold mirror card stock for the Tutti Designs Dove Circle and  Sue Wilson Noble Square die frame around the card.  I love the Sue Wilson pierced die sets.

Sue Wilson Noble Square
I embossed the Merry Christmas sentiment with Ranger Gold Detail embossing powder on a separate circle before gluing the Tutti Designs Dove Circle on the circle and then addingTombow 3D foam tape on the back to stick it on the card.  I added the 1.5" wide May Arts Silky Crushed white ribbon and added an antique pearl brad in the middle of the bow.  The embossing folder is my favorite and it is the 
Sue Wilson Snow Lattice embossing folder.

Scrapy Land has over 40 brands of dies.  You can see them all here.

Masculine Card

I have a lot of fishermen in our family and made this for my nephew who lives to fish.  Scrapy Land has a nice selection of dies for those cards that you want to add fishing gear, fish or a beautiful boat.  This fishing gear is from the gorgeous Tattered Lace-Fishermen die and Frantic Stamper Large Fish Fly die with the Cheery Lynn Designs - Wish Big sentiment die and Fishing die.  

I used some of my Copic markers to color the fishing gear and fishing rod and then added clear embossing powder on top.  I added Ultra Thick Melt Art bronze embossing enamel to the large Frantic Stamper fishing fly.  

I used a Stampin Up brick embossing folder to the cream paper in the center of the picture frame.  

I added the chipboard fish to the side.  The picture frame is the Sue Wilson Double Pierced Rectangle set B.  I used 3D foam self adhesive tape under the gray frame to raise it up and added small silver brads on each corner.  

Scrapy Land has over 40 brands of dies.  You can see them all here.

Come see what our wonderful Scrapy Land designers have posted to share with you.  Also, thank you again for sharing your beautiful cards on the Scrapy Land challenges and we enjoy seeing what you have created besides learning so much you.

I really love the Sue Wilson Design dies and all of these dies came from Scrapy Land.com. I was able to create lots of layers using the Sue Wilson Designs-California Collection-Decorative Frames- Set A and Set B with the gorgeous Sue Wilson Designs-Scandinavian Collection-Copenhagen.  

The background is the Sue Wilson Designs-Nobel Collection-Double Pierced Squares.  
The embossing folders are the gorgeous Sue Wilson Designs-Heart Lattice (purple) and Rambling Rose (white).  It is difficult in this photo to see the Sue Wilson Designs-Gemini-Orion die on the bottom of the white embossed section of this card with the flowers and ribbon covering most of this die cut.  The gorgeous flowers are the Sue Wilson Designs-Orange Blossom Petals and Sue Wilson Designs-Finishing Touches-Camellia Petals with one of my favorites, Sue Wilson Designs-Finishing Touches-Petite Vinery.

The gorgeous butterflies are the Sue Wilson Designs-Finishing Touches-Magical Butterflies and in the  Sue Wilson Designs-Delicate Garden Frame die set.  

Other Supplies:
Stampin Up stamp set
3/8" Purple Satin ribbon
Lavender Bazzill cardstock

Golden Wedding Anniversary

Welcome back and I hope you are enjoying our new challenge with Scrapy Land Blog this week - Anything Goes. Come see what our wonderful Scrapy Land designers have to share with you.
Thank you again for sharing your beautiful cards on the Scrapy Land Challenge and we enjoy seeing what you have created besides learning so much you.

I want to share the card that I made for my one of my card-making friends using the gorgeous Sue Wilson Designs dies that were purchased at Scrapy Land.com.  I used the Sue Wilson Designs-California Collection- Decorative Frame A and Decorative Frame B and behind these frames is the gorgeous Sue Wilson Designs-Scandinavian Collection-Copenhagan.  I would highly recommend that you buy both the Decorative Frame A and Decorative Frame B  since these die sets layer well together.

Using gold metallic card stock paper, I cut out three Sue Wilson Designs-Striplet-Emroidered dies using all three dies in this set.  I used the main die and cut three times on the fold white card and glued each gold die onto each cut.  

I glued a 1/2" wide ivory satin ribbon on the striplet and made a double bow with a rhinestone heart ribbon slider buckle in the middle.  I put together a hat pin and glued it in the middle of the bow.  

I love the Sue Wilson Designs-Lace Edge Leaves for my vintage cards.  The white butterfly next to the Wild Orchid Craft flowers is from the Sue Wilson Designs-Delicate Garden Frame set.  I use this butterfly often since this butterfly is about the size I want for many of my cards.  

I make my own angels from a mold and the double hearts came from the wedding department at Walmart.    

I would appreciate a comment to my card and hope you are having a wonderful spring time with your family and friends.   Now it is your turn to share you beautiful card or project with us on the  Scrapyland blog.

Five Side Card Happy Birthday

Welcome back Scrapy Land bloggers and what an exciting challenge "Oh Happy Spring".  The designers have exciting projects and cards to share with you and we hope you have some to share with us on the Scrapy Land Blog. 

I made a five sides card to share with you today.  The entire card was made with the Sue Wilson dies ordered from Scrapy Land.com.  I love Scrapy Land's fast delivery and fantastic customer service.  I ordered the Sue Wilson Magical Butterfly set and SW Camellia Flower dies on Friday and received them on Monday. 

The roses and blue flowers are from the Sue Wilson Camellia Flower set.   It comes with 31 dies in this set.  I cut these flowers on white water color  paper and used a sponge to apply the blue and rose colored ink on the flowers and glued 4mm flat back pearls on the blue flowers.   I glued the small blue flowers on the Frantic Stamper Bird on Pussywillow Branch after applying green ink on the branches with a sponge. 

I use the Sue Wilson Lace Edge Leaves die set on all of my vintage cards with flowers.  The
Sue Wilson-Gemini Die-Orion is on both ends of this card.  The Sue Wilson Magical Butterfly comes with several butterflies and I cut out two of the same butterflies and glued one behind the other to look like they are flying.  The butterflies are embossed with pearl white embossing powder and sponged with light blue pearlescent ink. 

Both right and left inside has the gorgeous Sue Wilson Striplet-Lattice Heart, SW Magical Butterflies and Sue Wilson Camellia Flower set. 

 

I have the Sue Wilson-Expression Collection-Scripted Happy Birthday and the Sue Wilson-New York Collection-Madison Square on the inside of the card.  The purple frame is also part of the Madison Square die set.  I tried using the outside frame of this set but it didn't work so the paper cut between the two dies looked good behind the frame.  The small rose and blue flowers were made using the SW Camellia die set.  Since it is the springtime theme, I used SW Magical butterflies on all sides of this card.   

 

The lavender paper is Bazzille and the printed paper came from a retired Stampin Up paper.

Birthday Card with Purse - Hayden

Welcome back Scrapy Land bloggers and we have another exciting Scrapy Land Challenge - Anything Goes.  We would love to see what you have to share with us.  It is always exciting to see what you have created and we enjoy reading your information about your cards or projects on your blog. 

Also, don't miss out on the new arrival of 247  dies at Scrapy Land at discounted prices from list prices.  Scrapy Land has over 40 name-brand dies for you. 

I have an exciting card to share with you.  I have several grand daughters who will have birthdays these next coming months and two that will be 14 years old. 

The purse idea was inspired by Angie Evans who created this on her cards.  I took her idea and made a tutorial.  This was my first tutorial using Snapguide and one page did not get saved about mentioning her name as well as some other information before it got published.  Therefore, I definitely want to give credit to Angie Evans for inspiring me to use her purse idea.

I will be sharing with you the front, inside and back of this card.  The supplies used in front of this card are all from Scrapy Land:  Creative Expression-Sue Wilson Designs dies: Happy Birthday, Charming Heart Corner, String Flowers, Classic Fold Over Flowers, and Lace Edge Leaves.   The embossing folders are the Sue Wilson Design:  A4 Rambling Blossoms (background) and A4 Pin Point Beaded Fanfare (purse).   I used foam tape inside the purse and glue on the edge of the purse to give it a 3-D appearance and added the flat back pearls and a pearl brad to the purse.

Sue Wilson Design dies:
Classic Fold Over Flowers
Charming Heart Corner
String Flowers
Lace Edge Leaves

I am using the Sue Wilson Design Happy Birthday die often since it allows a space to add a name or number.  The number 14 is the Cottage Cutz Elites Die -Number Candles.

 Always my all time favorite border is the Cheery Lynn Designs-Anastasia Border (left side of card).  I use this often when I want the look of lace on my card.

Check out How">http://snp.gd/hbtnua">How to Make a Purse for Your Card or Project
by Nancy Hill on Snapguide.
The die on the purse is the Marianne Design Anja's Vintage Decoration and the gorgeous ribbon on the purse is called the Antique Gold seam binding ribbon from Really Reasonable Ribbon. 

I used the Spellbinder/Heartfelt Creation Blossom Corner die for the inside of my cards to insert a check or money.


This Cheery Lynn Design- Polynesian Sails Oval is always a nice oval doily die to use for sentiments, pictures and photos.  I love this doily especially for vintage cards.  I don't glue the lace part of the doily but just the inside oval to bring out the lace.

 Inside the doily, I used the Sparkle N Sprinkle.com  sentiment:   Happy Birthday - Digital Stamp Set 578t and on the sentiment was a Sparkle N Sprinkle flower that was stamped with glue and then applied the gorgeous Sparkle N Sprinkle Starfire glitter which is difficult to see the beauty of this glitter in the photo. 

I stamp all of my cards on back with my name and have the Cheery Lynn Design - Kitty Kitty Meow Meow die cut added to it.  One year, I bought a cat for the farm and pretty soon, I had kittens galore  until I got the mom and a young cats spayed.  My friends and family thought it was hilarious about my cat and kitten stories.  Therefore, this cat/kitty die cut just reminds everyone of my stories about how productive one cat and a few younger cats can be in such a short time. 

Thanks for stopping by and please leave a comment.  Visit the rest of our very creative designers and have fun with this exciting challenge.

I cut these string flowers in white glimmer paper and used a lavender Copic Marker to color some of the petals.  I added a glimmer gold stamens using McGill stamen punches and then added gold glitter in the center of the stamen. 

I cut out an extra clover from the Sue Wilson-Best Of Luck die and colored it with emerald green ink.  I cut through the center of the Sue Wilson Scandanavian border and glued it around the front frame.  The lavender paper is from Brazzill.com. 

The beautiful lime green plaid ribbon came from Really Reasonable Ribbon.com.  I added a rhinestone ribbon slider buckle in the middle of the bow while using the Zutter Bow-It-All bow maker which is very handy while making this bow and inserting the buckle.  You will start see my cards with a ribbon slider buckles on my bows since I love more bling!

So Glad You're My Friend card

 Welcome back to our new and exciting Scrapy Land Challenge #37 - Anything Goes using a brand-name die that Scrapy Land sells on their on-line store. 

I love this Creative Expression-Sue Wilson-Ornate Oval My Friend set and it comes a total set of four dies.  I love this frame because many of the Sue Wilson sentiments will fit inside this frame and the frame was turned side ways for this card.  I used gold mirror cardstock for the gold circle inside the frame.

 Creative Expression-Sue Wilson Designs-Corvus die.  This die comes in a set of 3 so that you can use cut out either side or both sides.  I used the bottom design of this die as shown on the picture below.  I used a gold mirror cardstock and white cardstock paper. 

 Creative Expression-Sue Wilson Designs- Finishing Touches- Dandelion Clocks and Petite Vinery.
I love these die sets and use pearls, rhinestones or glitter at the ends of the dandelions on various cards.  

Creative Expression-Sue Wilson Designs-Finishing Touches-Dandelion Clocks
Creative Expression-Sue Wilson Designs-Finishing Touches-Petite Vinery
 

Creative Expression-Sue Wilson Designs-Delicate Garden Frame set (Butterfly)  -  I used the one butterfly cut from white cardstock and a gold mirror cardstock.  I used an ultra fine gold glitter for the outside edges of the butterfly and then glued small rhinestones in the center.

Springtime Card

Welcome back Scrapy Land bloggers and we have another exciting challenge for you at Scrapy Land Blog challenge 36 called "Tie One On" including a bow (die or ribbon).  Scrapy Land has over 40-named brand dies at discounted prices.  The customer service is top-notched and you will get your orders to you fast.  Normally, I get my order within three days which is great. 
Easter and St. Patrick's Day is around the corner and Scrapy Land has those dies that will make your card stand out with that "WOW" look.

While we still have snow on the ground, I am thinking spring and beautiful pastel colors.  My little sweet picture is from Sylvia Zet Wee digi stamps online.  I colored it with colored pencils and used the Starfire glitter on the flowers by Sparkle N Sprinkle.  The sentiment is an old Stampin Up stamp.

The oval doily die is the Cheery Lynn Designs Kiwi Oval frame, the green vine is the Sue Wilson-Finishing Touches-Petite Vinery.  I am using the vinery often with my flowers and prefer not to glue but just part of the stem and leave the vines and leaves loose.  The corners is from the Sue Wilson-Scandinavian corner/border/tag set.  I am loving this set and like the small corner die for many of my cards.  I use the border often and glue ribbon or pearls in the middle of the border.  In the center of the flowers is the Impression Obsession fir sprig set.  I like this better than using a punch since the fir sprig die cuts through regular and heavy card stock as well as glitter card stock. 

The embossing folder is the Sue Wilson Designs-Rambling Blossoms.  The gorgeous ribbon is the light coral satin ribbon from Really Reasonable Ribbon that has a variety and reasonably priced ribbon and Wild Orchid Craft flowers that I used on this card and this company also has fast service and great customer services. 

I made the pearl and diamond embellishment on the ribbon using a flat button. 

Thank you so much and I always enjoy your comments.

Lavender Valentine Box

Welcome back Scrapy Land bloggers to our February Challenge #35 -Anything Goes.  It is getting closer to Valentine's Day and I am almost ready but want to show you what I have been up to this past few weeks. 

I made each of my grand children a Valentine's box for chocolate candy or jewelry.  I will show you previous Valentine's boxes that I made at the end of this blog and hope to inspire you to try this out.  To see how I made the heart shape boxes below, visit my Heart Shape Box Tutorial

I made each box with different colors, flowers and images.  This is what I call the Lavender Valentine Box for my older grand daughter.  I started with the gorgeous Cheery Lynn Heart-To-Heart frame die set using the largest die to make the top and bottom base before cutting out two colors from this entire set to start with the top again. 

The beautiful girl is from Wee Stamp.  I colored her with colored pencils rather than Copic Marker since the image was small and I wanted more pastel colors which I don't always get from using Copic on small images.  Afterward, I used a variety of Sakura glitter pens as well as glitter glue to bring out the roses and her wings. 

I bought all of these dies that I used on this box from Scrapy Land this past month.  I love the Impression Obsession-Heart Stems in bows this year for various occasions besides baby breathe flowers.  I used a metallic purple cardstock to cut the heart stems.  Also, I used the Impression Obsession-Pine twig to fill in with the heart stems and bow.  The Sue Wilson-Finishing Touches-Petite Vinery and Sue Wilson-Finishing Touches- Dandelion Clocks are  an additional plus to add with flowers and bows on my projects this year.  I use my fingers to bend the leaves and I don't glue the entire vine down since I like the tips to curl.  I make my own hat pins. 

The beautiful seam binding ribbon for this bow and gorgeous Wild Orchid Craft flowers are from Really Reasonable Ribbon.  I make all of my bows using the Zutter Bow It All V2 which is purchased at Really Reasonable Ribbon which offers variety of gorgeous ribbon at reasonable prices.

This will be what the inside will look like for Valentines filled with chocolate or jewelry.

 

 

Other heart shape cards that I have made this month.

Well, I am not done but keeping following me at http://hillfarmcards.blog.spot to see the Valentine boxes that I have created and especially the one for a grand son which is still in question of how to do this yet.. 

 

Thank you for joining us at Scrapy Land and keep visiting the Scrapy Land Face Book and Scrapy Land Blog to continue to see the wonderful projects and cards that the designers have for you.  Can't wait to see what you have created!
