Craftin Desert Divas: Designing with Dies (Designer Creative Challenge)

Hello - Welcome!

Today I'm sharing three cards I created using a single die. This is probably the easiest way I know how to create with dies - specifically border dies. 

Here is my first card.



Rather then colour in this Craftin Desert Divas - Flower Border Die I used left over card stock and created a repetitive pattern with machine stitched details. I went with a monochrome colour scheme and didn't even bother about keeping true to a flower colour palette. I finished the card off with a sentiment from Craftin Desert Divas - Say It Big stamp set. 

This card design is perfect for Thank You, Wedding and Thinking of You themes/style of cards. So for the next two cards I simply changed the sentiment and colours. 


Each card is embellished with Craftin Desert Diva sequins and finished off with a twine bow.



Supplies Used:


Other:
Cardstock - White/Light Pink/Light Purple
Cuttlebug
Sewing Machine
Versafine Black Onyx Ink
Tape Runner
Multi Matte Medium
Twine

Thanks for stopping by! For more inspiration on how to make the most out of your dies and SVG cutfiles you can check out the Craftin Desert Divas Blog - here.

Happy Crafting!

Growing in Unity: Day 1

Image
Yippee!! After waiting 11 months, 10 days, it's finally my week to share my Unity cards. 5 whole days of inspiration is coming your way...oh! and lets not forget the sponsored giveaway by Unity at the end of my week - a grab bag with 25 random stamps! My first card I decided to use one of my favourite sets - I actually combined two (no, three!) Unity sets that really go well together. How do you use your Unity stamps? Would you mix and match them? When I first starting stamping (15 years ago) the thought of mixing sets would make me cringe - but now... no problems! I think it's a great way to make the most of your stamp collection. Here are my cards using Unity: Tumbleweed Houses , On My Way and Gypsy Journal (sentiment only) I coloured the images using a few of my ZIG brush pens and cut them out with my silhouette (for those who are visiting me for the first time - I try to avoid fussy cutting!) I added a few sewing machine details and adhered the hous...

A Super Quick Card!

Just sharing another card I made (with the help of master 2 1/2yo). Stamp is unity -  Vase with stripes.  C oloured with prisma pencils and gamsol. A super quick card to make as master 2 1/2yo did most of the work. I just added some washi tape, sequins, twine and a stamp I coloured in during the week (for practice)  :) Entered into  ARTastic Inspiration Photo Challenge . Link to Unity Friends with Flair.

A Spring Inspired Card...

Image
This week (or should I say the last few weeks) have been super crazy busy! We got good news, my Hubby renewed his work contract with the option to move back home to Adelaide (which of course we jumped at!) So...we are now packing our belongings in to boxes and the worst room is...come on! have a guess! :) Yup!! My craft room... But its mostly packed up, with the exception of a few stamps, paper packs, a handful of embellishments and my copic markers.  Last week, in between all the craft room packing (I got distracted a few times!) I created this card, its from Unity's ...bunches of love stamps. I decided to make a few, I hate having left over paper, so I tend to create a card (generally for someone's birthday coming up) and then duplicate it so I have a stash of cards for those occasions you forget someones birthday coming up!  This was the perfect stamp set to do this! While stamping, I wished I had that misti tool Ive seen a few times now through youtube videos,...
