Today, I’m sharing another summer-themed, beach scene crafted with die cuts.
I used my favorite red/white/blue scheme again! Hope you’re having a terrific day.
Cardmaking and Scrapbooking with Jean Manis
I couldn’t resist creating watermelon Popsicles with the Reverse Confetti Let’s Chill Confetti Cuts and the Doin’ the Wave Confetti Cuts.
To create the Popsicles, I used the Doin’ the Wave Confetti Cuts to cut two patterned papers and white cardstock. I adhered the pieces onto a lightweight piece of cardstock, fitting them together in their grooves, and used the Let’s Chill Confetti Cuts to cut out the Popsicle. For the Popsicle sticks, I first cut them with the Let’s Chill Confetti Cuts and then ran them through the Big Shot with the Woodgrain Confetti Cuts to add texture.
I heat embossed one of the sentiments from Donut You Know. Additional embellishments were created with the Confetti Cuts sets: Layered Banner Duo (banner), Shakers ‘n Frames (hearts), Wonky Scallop Border, and Tagged Tote (bow).
Today, I’m sharing a summer-themed lighthouse scene crafted with Taylored Expressions dies.
I’ve already proclaimed my love for the red, white and blue (in this case navy and a chambray blue) color scheme, especially during the summer. I added a little yellow to energize the scene. The sentiment is from a Simon Says Stamp set.
Supplies: Taylored Expressions Little Bits – Lighthouse, Little Bits – Sailboat, Build A Scene – Rolling Waves, Build A Scene – Rolling Hills
I liked this week’s CAS(E) This Sketch Challenge so much, I created another card with the sketch using Reverse Confetti stamps and Confetti Cuts!
I stamped images from the Reverse Confetti Petals ‘n Posies set with pigment inks and cut them with their corresponding Confetti Cuts. I stamped the sentiment from Peacock Pretties and cut it with a die in the Stitched Flag Confetti Cuts set. I cut the cardstock frame with a square die inside a rectangular one. The frame is adhered to the blue panel with dimensional adhesive for some depth.
