Partial Die Cut Window Card

Today, I’m sharing a window card, based on one shown by Jennifer McGuire in the Online Card Classes Holiday Card Workshop 2014, that uses partial die cutting. My take on Jennifer’s card features the deer from the Lawn Fawn Party Animals set.

Partial Die Cut Window Card

I stamped the deer on cardstock and then used its companion die to cut it out partway. I then partially cut the circle with a die. I did need to do some minor trimming at the point where the two met. It took more than one try to get this to work out to my satisfaction!

I colored the deer with Copics and cut the panel with a die from the Lawn Cuts Large Stitched Rectangle set.

On a different panel, I heat-embossed a sentiment from Chit Chat with white embossing powder and applied Salty Ocean and Tumbled Glass Distress Inks. I attached the panel with the deer to the background panel with dimensional adhesive.

Lawn Fawn Big Hello

I’m sharing a “just because” card featuring the images from Lawn Fawn’s Year Four set.

BigHello

I Copic-colored the hippo and bird, adding die cut elements and a heat-embossed sentiment (which I amended with the die cut letters for a punny sentiment). I dry-embossed the background for some texture. I thought that the larger polka dots fit the card’s playful theme.

Background Check Day Six – Party Animals

Today, I’m sharing another Day Six Online Card Classes Background Check lesson card using techniques shown by Debby Hughes. Of all of the cards I made for this class, this one was the most ambitious!

BackgroundCheckDaySix

To begin, I dry embossed the Ranger watercolor paper with the woodgrain embossing folder and the circle diffuser. (Debby showed how to make a custom diffuser, which I will certainly do at some point in the future.) I watercolored the section of the panel that was not embossed with Peerless watercolors. While the panel dried, I Copic-colored some of the adorable images from the Lawn Fawn Party Animals set. I also stamped one of the Chit Chat sentiments.

The dry-embossed panel was adhered to cardstock with foam adhesive. Because of the embossing and watercoloring, the panel is quite warped, so I used a lot of adhesive. I finished the card off with some Doodle Bug twine.

I have really enjoyed the Online Card Classes Background Check course!

Online Card Classes Background Check – Day Two

I’m sharing a card created with one of the techniques shown by Kristina Werner in the Day Two lesson of the Online Card Classes Background Check class.

I stamped the Argyle Backdrop with ColorBox white pigment ink onto Stampin’ Up Sahara Sand cardstock. When that was dry, I stamped over the pigment ink (shifting slightly) with four Stampin’ Up dye inks. I cut out the panel with a Lawn Fawn stitched rectangle die; it’s A2 sized. I cut the thanks sentiment and leaves with Lawn Fawn dies.

Lawn Fawn Life is Good

Today I’m sharing a card for the occasion on which you need to say “Sorry”! The Lawn Fawn Life is Good stamp set is one I grab as soon as the sun is out! So many great images.

I stamped and colored the crabs with Copic markers, and then I cut them out with their corresponding die. The background was dry embossed with the Tim Holtz Waves folder. I used twine to finish it off.
