A Color Technique with New Stamps and Cool Diamond Silk Microfine Glitter

January 31, 2017

Hi It’s Kelly Booth. I’m here to show you one of my favorite ways of coloring using the Clear Double Sided Adhesive Tape and Cool or Warm Diamond Silk Microfine Glitter. Please note that the Cool Diamond Silk Microfine Glitter contains cooler sparkles in it, which gives you a better result in seeing the colors of your image under the glitter than when using Warm Diamond Silk Microfine Glitter.

I’m using one of the Sweet Birds from the new Feather Friends stamp set for my card and will show you a few others created with the same technique.

Delicate Gerberas from Susan’s Garden

January 31, 2017

Hello to all,

Welcome to the ECD blog and especially to Susan’s Garden Club. I am Anita here. Susan’s Garden is filled with the best flower making dies and I just love all of them. You’ll find roses and hydrangeas, gerbera daisies, pansies, lilies and many more.

Today, I have created some delicate pastel blooms for you using the newly-released Garden Notes Gerbera Daisy.

In nature this flower grows in a variety of colours from pastel to vibrant. I love the pastels and chose soft pink. There are eight dies in the set including the stem, leaves, and all of the parts of the flower!

Memory Never Fades

January 30, 2017

“Like an old photograph
Time can make a feeling fade
But the memory . . .
Never fades away.”

Hello Dear Friends, Shalini Pahwa here and welcome to my first post on the ECD blog. I’m super excited to be here. The above lyrics from American singer, songwriter and actor Tim McGraw are the essence of my latest creation. I have made this from an old hollowed-out table clock and I chose faded, antique looking colors to give it a worn look. I decorated it with flowers made with dies from the exquisite Susan’s Garden Club collection. This creation of mine is a reflection of what one really wants to hold onto in life – the reminiscence of good times past, incorporating those experiences and what we have learned from them into the present.

Lace Heart Valentine

January 29, 2017

Lace Heart Valentine
by Judi Kauffman

Valentine’s Day is a papercrafter’s idea of heaven! (Not that we ever need an excuse to make cards.) The minute I saw the Lace Heart die from the ModaScrap collection I was ready to roll…

This is a super simple project. The card is flat instead of folded so you’ll need to choose whether to punch holes at the top and add twine or ribbon and a bead for a hanging loop, or skip the holes and send a Card Stand/Easel so it can be displayed on a mantel, desk, or table.

A Way With Words

Sending Hugs & Kisses

January 28, 2017

Hello, it’s Diana and I’m so excited to share with you a card I made using some new A Way With Words dies. This is a favorite technique of mine – to use die-cuts and create my own embossed background. Here I repeated the “Sending” in the background and spotlighted the “Hugs & Kisses.” It’s so easy to change the colors to suit the recipient, too!

Peacock Feather Bookmark

January 26, 2017

Hi Friends,

Melanie here today to share with you a fun bookmark that I made as a gift for my mother. I have created it using the NEWLY released Peacock Feather die from Joset Designs.

As soon as I saw the new Stitched Fishtail Banners die set it screamed to me “Bookmarks!” so that is my focus with this project.

Now that Christmas is over, there’s no need to put the Sleigh Gift Card Holder die set away. As you will see with this card, it’s put to good use year round. Instead of using the sleigh that comes with the set, I have used Whiskers the Cat instead. Let’s jump right in and get started with the tutorial!
