Elizabeth Craft – Halloween Bird

Hello! Today I am sharing a Halloween card created with Elizabeth Craft Design die sets.

I die-cut the Winter Bird from cardstock colored with Distress Inks and assembled it.
I die-cut the branch from the same set.
I die-cut the witch’s hat and bat with dies in the Halloween Accessories set.
I stamped the Taylored Expressions sentiment on to an ink-colored circle.
I added the assembled pieces to patterned paper on which I colored the corners.

Father’s Day Card for a Fishing Enthusiast

Hello! Today I am sharing a CAS, fishing-themed, Father’s Day card created with dies in the Elizabeth Craft Designs Camping Accessories set.

I colored soft-finish cardstock with Distress Inks and cut the colored cardstock with the fishing pole and the fish dies in the Camping Accessories set.
I stamped the Stampin’ Up sentiment (now-retired Best Catch stamp set) on to a 4 1/4″ square base.
For the water, I colored a strip with Distress Ink and stamped it with the My Favorite Things Winter Waves Background stamp in darker ink. I added the strip to the bottom of the card base.
The fish was added to the card with foam adhesive.

Along with the fishing-theme, I particularly like the bright colors on the card.

Let’s Go Camping – Elizabeth Craft Designs

Hello! Today I am sharing an adventure-themed card featuring die sets from Elizabeth Craft Designs. Camping is one of my favorite summer themes, right up there with nautical!

I colored soft-finish cardstock with Distress Inks and cut the various pieces for the bear, tent, fire, and s’more stick.
I assembled the pieces.
I created a 5″ x 7″ background on which I heat-embossed the sentiment.
I trimmed the tent on the left-hand side (because I was running out of room!).
I added the assembled pieces to the scene, adhering the fire and the s’more with foam adhesive.
Once I had everything in place, I added the star sequins as the blue sky looked blank. Had I thought of it earlier, I might have added stars through a stencil instead.

Elizabeth Craft Designs Monkey Birthday Card

Hello! I recently created a listed of occasions for which I regularly need cards. While I create a lot of holiday-specific cards (Halloween, Christmas, Easter), I’m often short on Thank You and birthday cards. Today I am sharing a whimsical birthday card featuring the Elizabeth Craft Designs Monkey. I’ve previously used this set here and here.

I die-cut the Monkey body from Bazzill 12 x 12 textured cardstock in brown and ivory. I own a lot of 12 x 12 cardstock from the period of time during which I scrapbooked.
I used the Make Me Smile dies to cut the eyes, nose, and mouth from black cardstock.
I assembled the monkey. Once assembled I decided that the ivory cardstock needed a little more color and I added Tea Dye ink with a small sponge applicator.
I cut the balloon and party hat using the Party Accessories set.
I stamped the sentiment on to a patterned paper rectangle.
I added the elements to the card.
