Welcome back everyone. It is Olivia again and this will be my final time that I will be sharing one of my inspiration cards with you.  It has been a fantastic time working with all the amazing products and the lovely DT members.

Today I decided to make a Congratulations card for my former boss. She has moved into another job position after 24 years. She will be dearly missed and we are all excited for her.

For this card, I used the Die-Versions Dies. Unfortunately it is a close out one but there are many other lovely doily style dies in their collection. I then paired it with some Cheery Lynn Flourishes. I often do trim my dies as needed so that it works with the card. The sentiment is from TrimCraft Traditional Sentiment Set and I used the Cutting Die-Rolled Up Roses on this card as well.

DiesRUs Butterfly Tag

Hello everyone. It is Olivia here and today I created a cute tag to go along with a gift I was giving for a friend who has been having a rough patch. 

 

 

To create the tag, I trimmed some of my Kraft cardstock down to 3x5.  I then used my corner under and the hole punch to create the hole for the ribbon.  For this one I used a butterfly die set via Cherry Lynn called Butterfly In. I actually cut the Butterfly twice in two different colors and then trimmed some of the extra swirls off to get the look that I wanted. This die is actually quite long.  I then added some flowers and enamel dots from my stash. The sentiment was part of the paper set that I used.  I really love Butterflies and DiesRUs has so many beautiful ones available in the store.

Kraftin Kimmie-Fairy Loved

Welcome back everyone. It is Olivia and today I am showcasing some of the newer Kraftin Kimmie stamps, Fairy Loved, available at Quick Creations. For this card, I decided to showcase both of the fairy stamps that came on the set. That is one of the things that makes clear stamps so easy to work with as you can see how they will work together. I colored the image with my Copics and use this adorably bright and happy patterned paper, Perfectly Plaid by Lawn Fawn. I also added some Prima Fun Fair Enamel Dots to the card.

Masculine Theme Card

Hello everyone. It is Olivia here and today I decided to showcase a more masculine theme card using some of the lovely dies from DiesRUs.  For this card I used the Die-Versions Whispers Hot Air Balloon Birthday Die.  One of the things I love about this die is that the Happy Birthday is a separate die so you can use the Hot Air Balloon on it's own which is what I did in this case.

 

I cut out the balloon twice. Once on the blue cardstock and then again on an orange cardstock. I then took the inside pieces from the orange die cut to fill the blue balloon.  I used a stamp from my collection to add a sentiment to the bottom part of the die.

Treat Holder Door Hanger

Hey everyone. It is Olivia here with my first DT project for this month. Sometimes I decide to spice things up a bit and do a more 3D project so I am here today with at Door hanger treat box.  I used a tutorial I found on youtube via Scrappinology.

I thought this would be so cute to stuff with some candies, gift card and whatever other goodies you want for a friend to brighten their day as it could be use really for any holiday.

This little box is showcasing this adorable stamp by CC Designs called Cake Nancy. I colored the image with my Copics. I use the papers from CC Designs-Rainbows 6x6 Pad.  For the sentiment-I cut out the letters using the Mini Alpha & Number Dies from CC Designs.

Hope you enjoyed this project. 

Fall Theme Thank you Card

So guess what I got to do on my kids first day back at school!! Finish up some cards. Yeah. I decided to finally use some of my old Whiff of Joy stamps I had that I have not colored up to enter into some challenges.

As usual, I colored it up with my Copics and then used some papers from my stash to create this card. I was inspired to use a sketch from a Challenge too for this one. The die is from Paper Smooches and I used my Spellbinder dies to cut out the colored image.

If you are wondering about the skin, I did

Skin: E15,E13, E11 with R32 for the cheeks

CAS style card

Welcome back everyone. It is Olivia here and just wanted to share a more CAS style card I made for an adult friend of mine for her birthday. It is still very girly but easy enough to mail out.

 

I started out with a plain cardstock paper on beige and use my distress inkers and sponge it on. I used the Die-Namites Butterfly Frame Die. I took the sentiment that came in the Die-Versions Hot Air Birthday Balloon and then used the Happy Birthday die as the sentiment in the middle.  I finished it off with using some flowers I had in my stash.

Happy Birthday Die Topper Card

Today I decided to use some the Memory Box Dies Happy Birthday Die in conjunction with a colored stamp. I decided to use this die directly to the top of the paper for the card as that the die works like a border. In order to do that, the die is placed on the very top of the paper to create a one layer look. I used colored paper underneath to help the die pop.

The stamp images is surrounded by a scallop circle die.

As you can see, this cutie is from the Greeting Farm-Dollie with Cupcake. I colored her up with some girly pink tones this time using my copic markers. The sentiment is also part of the stamp set too.

 

This one will be going in my Birthday card stash.  The paper is from Carta Bella Home Sweet Home Collection and them added some enamel dots.

For those who may be wondering the skin colors, I used E00,E11,E13,E15 with R32 for cheeks.

Stationary Card Box

Hello everyone. It is Olivia here to showcase my project for DiesRUs and today I decided to spice it up a bit and showcase one of my 3D projects I enjoy doing from time to time.  This is a Stationary Card Box and it is a bit picture heavy. 

For the outside of the box I use some the  Dies R Us-Scrolly Corner. The butterfly is a felt embellishment I have in my stash.

 

The box also is created with compartments that hold cards, tags and other various thing.

 

This side has a little note pad, pen and a stamp holder pocket.  I used the Die-Mensions:Arrow - Love This die on the inside.
