Elizabeth Craft Designs | Bucket of Flowers

Hello! Today, I am sharing a card created with products from the Elizabeth Craft Designs Paper Flowers collection. The A2-sized “Hello” card showcases the die sets Flower Pot/Bucket, Florals 13, Leaves & Branches, and Floral Minis. I previously shared a floral card created with products in the Paper Flowers collection HERE.

- To begin, dry-emboss an A2-size Chamomile cardstock panel with the Honey Bee Burlap folder. Attach to a card base.
- Cut Soft Finish cardstock with dies in the Flower Pot/Bucket, Florals 13, Leaves & Branches, and Floral Minis sets. Color pieces with Distress Inks. Assemble. Shape flowers with ball stylus tools. Add yellow prills to the flower centers of the small flowers.
- Adhere assembled bucket to the card with foam adhesive. Add floral elements to the bucket with glue.
- Stamp sentiment (Stampin’ Up Timeless Tropical stamp set) in black on white cardstock. Cut with small tag die (MFT Stamps). Add sentiment to the card.

Supplies: Stampin’ Up Timeless Tropical, MFT Stamps tag die

Elizabeth Craft Designs | Winter Florals

Hello! Today, I am dipping my toes into the Elizabeth Craft Designs Paper Flowers collection. My slimline-sized card showcases two die sets from the collection – Floral Foliage 1 and Floral Greenery 1. The birdhouse in a barrel filled with plants creates a picturesque winter scene.

To begin, create a 4″ x 6 1/2″ card base and cover with patterned paper (I used Carta Bella Santa’s Workshop Collection Border Strips).
Cut Soft Finish cardstock with dies in the Floral Foliage 1 and Floral Greenery 1 sets. Color pieces with Distress Oxide inks and Pan Pastels. Assemble. Shape flowers with ball stylus tools. Add micro beads for the birds’ eyes.
Place assembled birdhouse into barrel and tape on back. Add the assembly to the card base. Add birds to birdhouse with foam adhesive. Add greenery to barrel and adhere with glue.
Stamp sentiment (Hero Arts All Occasion Messages stamp set) in black on white cardstock. Cut with small tag die (MFT Stamps). Add May Arts twine through hole. Add tag to card with foam adhesive.

Supplies: Hero Arts All Occasion Messages, MFT Stamps tag die, Finnabair black micro beads

Elizabeth Craft Designs | Crafting Cozy Moments

Hello! Today, I am delighted to share a handmade card with a hot beverage theme featuring products from Elizabeth Craft Designs. Nestled on a snowflake-patterned paper, this card captures the essence of winter coziness. I recently posted about the hot beverage theme in cardmaking HERE.

- Create an A2-size card base and adhere patterned paper (I used the A2-size die in the Lawn Fawn Stitched Rectangles set to cut the paper). Patterned paper offers a quick and convenient way to create card backgrounds, which I discussed in this post.
- Using the Warm Winter Mug die set, cut mug, gingerbread person, and candy cane from Snowdrift, Pomegranate, Paper Bag, and Fern cardstock. Assemble.
- Stamp Holiday Treats sentiment on Snowdrift cardstock with Icing on the Cake ink. I masked the sentiment in order to stack it. Cut sentiment with a banner die. Add grommet (I used a die in the Lawn Fawn Tag, You’re It set), and punch a hole. Add twine (Lawn Fawn Peppermint Cord).
- Add assembled mug and sentiment banner to card base.

Looking for more inspiration? I previously posted a card with these sets here.

Scarecrow Sweater: Papercrafted Fall Fashion

Hello! Today, I am showcasing Elizabeth Craft Designs products – the Sweater Season and Scarecrow die sets and Autumn Words stamp set – on a fall-themed card. I don’t own a fall novelty sweater, however, I can always craft one from paper!

To begin, dry-emboss a Persimmon cardstock panel, measuring 4 1/2″ square with cable folder (I used Cable Knit from Taylored Expressions). Attach to card base.
Cut sweater with dies in the Sweater Season set. Dry-emboss sweater body with SU Subtle folder (now retired). Alternatively, cut the sweater from textured cardstock. Add neckline, bottom hem, and cuffs, cut from white cardstock, to the sweater. Cut circles with a small circle die and add to sweater body for adornment.
Die-cut pieces for the Scarecrow head and hat from colored cardstock. Assemble. To create the mouth on the scarecrow, I cut a piece of cardstock with a 1/2-inch circle die. I used the negative portion to draw the mouth using a Faber Castell Pitt artist pen size XS pen. (I am writing this specifically so I will remember for next time.) Add assembled scarecrow face, with crow, to sweater front.
Stamp Autumn Words sentiment in black on to white cardstock and cut with the smallest die in the Small Stitched Rectangle Stackables set.
Add sentiment and assembled sweater to card front.

Previously, I used the Scarecrow die set on a fall-themed card HERE and the Sweater Season die set on a Christmas-themed card HERE.

Elizabeth Craft Designs | Scarecrow’s Harvest Delight

Hello! Today, I am sharing a fall-themed card created with Elizabeth Craft Designs supplies. Picture a picturesque pumpkin patch, a scarecrow standing guard, and a cart bursting with pumpkins. It’s a heartwarming scene that captures the essence of autumn, with a heartfelt greeting that simply says, “Hello Fall.”

To begin, color Soft Finish cardstock with Distress Oxide inks of choice.
Die-cut pieces for the Scarecrow and Hay Ride from the ink-colored cardstock. Assemble. To create the mouth on the scarecrow, I cut a piece of vellum with a 1/2-inch circle die. I used the negative portion to draw the mouth using a Permawriter II size 03 pen. (I am writing this specifically so I will remember for next time.)
Dry emboss a Sea Glass A2-size cardstock panel with a folder for subtle texture. (Note: I used the now-retired SU Subtle Dynamic Textured Impressions folder. The shim required is the base platform, the folder with the cardstock inside, and one cutting plate.)
Cut ground with die in Adventure Edges 2 from inked cardstock. Cut the fence from Woodgrain cardstock with die in the same set. Add to card base.
Attach cart and scarecrow to card with foam adhesive. Fill cart with leaves and pumpkins.
Stamp Autumn Words sentiment in Icing on the Cake ink on Taylored Expressions Sugar Cube cardstock and cut with the smallest die in the Small Stitched Rectangles set. Attach to card.

I have previously shared a card with the scarecrow HERE. I used the cart in both THIS and THIS post.
