Elizabeth Craft | Spring Rain Mice Card

Hello! Today’s card features the charming Big Mouse and Little Mouse die sets from Elizabeth Craft Designs, ready for the spring rain. I intentionally kept the design streamlined by choosing patterned paper for the background rather than building a die-cut scene. I finished the design with a BetterPress sentiment that reads “Hello, Sweet Friend.”

Elizabeth Craft | Dog Scene

Hello! Today, I’m sharing a large scene card created with the Dogs and Garden Edges and Fence die sets from Elizabeth Craft Designs. I love building vignettes with these dies, and this one came together as a countryside setting complete with hills, flowers, a classic mailbox, and of course, a sweet dog. All of the pieces were cut from soft finish cardstock and colored with Distress Oxide inks (after cutting), which adds depth and softness to the scene while keeping everything cohesive.

    • Cut the Garden Edges and Fence pieces, hand-color, and trim to fit a card base measuring 7 inches wide.
    • Print a computer-generated sentiment or stamp sentiment on to white cardstock and cut with the Garden Edges and Fence cloud die. Trim.
    • Adhere the assembled pieces to a card base measuring 7 inches wide by 5 1/2 inches tall. Add the dog, flowers, and post box with foam adhesive.

Elizabeth Craft Designs | Shaped Roses

Hello! When I work with the Paper Flowers Collection at Elizabeth Craft Designs, I like to take my time shaping each floral layer so that the roses feel full and realistic. For this 5″ x 7″ Thank You card, I created a vase arrangement with roses, small flowers, and leaves, letting the dimension do most of the work. I tucked a stamped tag sentiment into the bouquet for a finishing touch. The patterned paper background adds color without competing with the flowers.

    • Cut the Rose from Soft Finish Cardstock, color with Distress Inks, and assemble. I used Saltwater Taffy, Peeled Paint, and Rustic Wilderness.
    • Cut additional greenery with die in the Greenery Fillers 01 set (now retired) or similar. Color and shape. Cut small flowers with die in the set, color with Copic YG0000, and shape. Add a Dress My Craft thread pollen to the center.
    • Stamp the sentiment and cut with a tag die. I used a now retired Stampin’ Up Timeless Tropical stamp and a MFT tag die.
    • Place the vase on the prepared base with foam squares. Glue the roses, small flowers, and greenery to the card.

Elizabeth Craft Designs | Dog Scene

Hello! I’m excited to share a card that captures the cozy comforts of home using Elizabeth Craft Designs die sets in Joset’s Dog Days Collection. The scene features a sweet dog sitting on a chair in a living room, with a “Home Sweet Home” sentiment framed on the wall. I paired the die-cut elements with a 6” x 6” card base covered in graphic patterned paper, creating a charming and welcoming design perfect for sending a heartfelt greeting to friends or family.
