Craft O'Clock Happy Birthday Cards

Welcome back and Nancy, here.   The new arrival of the Craft O' Clock Vintage Treasure papers are a gorgeous with the vintage colors and beautiful pink roses that made for my shabby chic birthday cards for my nieces.    I added the gorgeous Wild Orchid Craft flowers to both card.  

My shabby chic cards always have pearls, laces and ribbons.  I had a lot of fun sewing around the edges of the card and distress the sides with sand paper and sponged some with Ranger Distress Antique Linen ink and Ranger Distress Ripe Persimmon ink.  The gorgeous butterflies were cut out from the Craft O'Clock Vintage Treasure - A Sheet of Extra and once adhered to the card, I used the NUVO Crystal Clear Gloss on the butterfly and let dry.  I love how it brings out the butterfly with a little gloss on the wings.  

I added a Lawn Fawn Simple Banner die and stamped with the Lawn Fawn Wavy Saying on this card.  

So have fun making your gorgeous shabby chic cards with the gorgeous collection from Craft O-Clock Vintage Treasure.

Lawn Fawn Out of This Worl

 

Your cards will be out of this world by creating a scene with the entire solar system and these cute little aliens!  Nancy, here, and I am excited to share my fun to make birthday card with you.  This Lawn Fawn Out Of This World and Lawn Fawn Beam Me Up stamp and die sets are wonderful for special occasions like birthdays and graduations, and for science and space lovers!  

I sponged the background with Distress Oxide inks:  Black Soot, Chipped Sapphire, Picked Raspberry, Fossilized Amber and Lawn Fawn White Ink.  I mixed a little water with white Perfect Pearl powder but white acrylic paint will do as well and used a toothbrush with my fingers to spray on the card for the galaxy for the front and inside of the card.  Before adhering the Lawn Fawn images and clouds to the card, I used a can of Gloss Spray found in a hardware on the card to have a touch of shimmer on the sky for the front and inside of the card.  I let dry for an hour due to my sensitivity to the smell of the spray before gluing the images.

I stamped the images with the Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored with Copic Markers.  I cut out two Lawn Fawn Puffy Cloud Border clouds for the front of the card with white cardstock and vellum.  I cut out the Lawn Fawn Pop Up Birthday die and sponged on the same Distress inks.  I adhered the card with the Beacon 3-in-1 Advanced glue.  Also, I added a touch of white Lawn Fawn Ink with a cotton swab to the stamped stars.

I am entering this card in Lawn Fawn Challenge 96:  Happy Birthday

Stamperia Orchids and Cats Planner

Welcome back and Nancy, here, to share a 2021 planner that was covered and embellished with the Stamperia Orchids & Cats collections along with the Craft O'Clock Specially Coated Paper #34

 that is  specially coated paper and butterfly cardstock that features gorgeous florals and beautiful papers that are timeless! Perfect for albums, boxes, cards and more in these collections that will surely leave you breathless!

Front of Planner

Inside of Planner

Back of Planner

I bought the 2021 planner book online and it already had beautiful sentiments and flowers through the months but I wanted to add that personal touch before giving it to my granddaughter before she goes off to college this winter.  

The planner measure 7 1/2" x 9 and will only be covering the front, back and one page on the inside with the beautiful Stamperia Orchid and Cats collection along with the Craft O'Clock Speciality Coated Paper with the Craft O'Clock Vintage Treasure - A Sheet of Extra embellishments from these two name brands.  Since my granddaughter wants lots of butterflies in her planner, I added these gorgeous butterflies throughout her planner.  I made sure to write in family birthdays and addresses in the monthly planner so that she will be reminded to call them on their birthdays.

The Craft O'Clock Speciality Coated Paper is a specially laminated paper which is more resistant to abrasions during gluing covers of albums/notebooks and  its size of 9 1/2" x 23 1/2" makes gluing cover of album/notebook with one sheet of paper.

I scored the side of the speciality paper first against the planner and applied the  the largest Scor-Tape .  Then I taped the front using the Scor-Tape and then folded the paper over the planner and then taped the back and folded the paper onto the planner.  I used an exacto knife to cut off the excess paper.  

I fussy cut the flowers, labels and butterflies.  I used the NUVO Crystal Glaze on the butterflies and labels and let dry overnight.  After I finished each page of the planner, I applied more NUVO Crystal Clear Glaze on the flowers to bring out the colors and add more dimension to the scene.   

I used Beacon 3-in-1 Advanced glue to apply the Stamperia Glamour Sparkles-Sparkling White to the front and inside of the planner around the flowers and labels.  I really love the clear chunks of crystals to add that special WOW to each image!  

I added the Stamperia Decorative Cat Chipboard and Stamperia Chipboard Orchids and Cat to the back and front of the planner and lightly sponged a light brown ink to the cats before gluing these on with the Beacon 3-in-1 Advanced Glue.  I fussy cut the flowers and used my fingers to mold the back of the flowers and glued the flowers on the edge and adhered to the card.  This gives the flowers a 3D appearance and pops out more.  

  Have a fabulous crafting day and thanks for visiting.

 I added the Stamperia Forest Die Cuts chipboard on the front of the card.  I fussy cut the leaves from the collection and added the NUVO Clear Gloss to bring out the colors and add a 3D appearance.  
 

I cut out the sentiments from the collection and added these to the inside of the card.  I typed out the sentiment to my son and sponged on some Ranger Distress Antique Linen Ink around the edges and adhered the card with Beacon 3-in-1 Advanced glue.
