My Happy Place

Hello! Today I am sharing a CAS card featuring the Cottage Cutz Potting Shed die set with a retired MFT stamp set (“Beach Bunnies”) sentiment, which I masked (the sentiment says “You Are My Happy Place”).

I die-cut the pieces for the shed, watering can, and flower pot and assembled them with glue. The die is one piece, which you run through multiple times cutting different colored cardstock. I tried a number of different shed siding/roof/door color combinations. I saw a garden shed online with a teal door (gray siding), but when I tried teal cardstock, it just didn’t look the same. I really like all of the details that the set provides.

I stamped the sentiment and added a horizon by brushing Distress Ink for the sky and the grass.

We recently had snow in the PNW. It’s melted now and there are daffodils popping up!

Elizabeth Craft Snowman Valentine

Hello! Today I am sharing a CAS, winter-themed, Valentine created with Elizabeth Craft Designs die sets.

I cut the Peek-A-Boo frame and inlaid the letters.
I cut and assembled the Jack Frost snowman, accessorizing him with a hat cut with dies in the Winter Accessories set.
I tucked the snowman into the frame and backed it with light blue cardstock.
I added the assembly to a patterned paper card base.
I embellished the scene with snowflakes cut with the Penguin die set.

I have previously used the Jack Frost snowman here and the Peek-A-Boo frame on a card here.

Penny Black – CAS XOXO Valentine

Hello! Today I am sharing a CAS Valentine’s Day card created with Penny Black supplies from previous love-themed releases, as I eagerly await products from their newest release.

I gold heat-embossed the 30-667 Love Language sentiment on red cardstock. The sentiment is a multi-line one, which I masked.
I die-cut 51-486 Stitched XOXO from white cardstock through which I added an arrow, cut from gold cardstock with the 51-594 Doodles of Love die set.
I added the assembly to a white textured card base.

Supplies:

Alexandra Renke Cozy Cabin Scene

Hello! Today I’m sharing a die-cut, winter-themed card featuring the Alexandra Renke Forest Cabin die set.

I cut the Forest Cabin pieces from white, red, and gray cardstock. The door to the cabin was fussy-cut.
I cut the white snowbank and added it to the background panel stamped with a Rubbernecker sentiment.
I cut a frame with a Taylored Expressions die set.
I added the trees, cabin, and birds to the scene and put the assembly on Stampin’ Up patterned paper.

Supplies: Alexandra Renke Forest Cabin, Elizabeth Craft Designs Adventure Edges, Rubbernecker Snowmen with Presents, Taylored Expressions Frame die

Elizabeth Craft Designs Snowman

Hello! I’m continuing with my winter-themed cards and sharing another one featuring an Elizabeth Craft Designs snowman.

To create the snowman, I cut and glued the Elizabeth Craft Designs Jack Frost pieces, using a hat from the Elizabeth Craft Designs Winter Accessories set. (I die-cut the mouth with a Paper Smooches snowman die set piece.)
I cut the hat from ThemoWeb Flock in white and tan.
I cut the hill after stamping the Rubbernecker Snowmen with Presents sentiment.
I adhered the hill and snowman to the patterned paper background, adding snowflakes cut with a die in the Elizabeth Craft Designs Penguin set.
