Hi Creative friends and welcome back to the Elizabeth Craft Designs Blog.
I am making a few changes in my Design Team commitments heading into 2023, one of those changes I am making is with Elizabeth Craft Designs. I have decided its time for me to say farewell, so i am sharing my last project with you for Elizabeth Craft Designs.
I decided to keep it simple and I designed a Christmas card using Florals 12, which has been a favorite of mine to create with. I cut 8 large florals 12 and two of the small flowers, and 8 leaves,
The Merry Christmas title is from an older EC Die (1576 Words 5-Winter Wishes)
I coloured them with aged mahogany, and the leaves with peeled paint, pretty much my stand by colours for florals 12 when creating poinsettias.
I hope you enjoy my last project with Elizabeth Craft Designs and want to wish you and your loved ones a Merry Christmas, and a safe, happy and prosperous New Year!
Thank you for dropping by today and for following me along the past two years as i shared my projects with you.
Hii all, it is almost the best time of the year in my opinion. If I aks my nephew he would say the same. The card that I’m sharing with you today is a birthday card for him. He love his cat Jellie and like Christmas. That’s for me 2 good things to combine.
For this card I use the beautiful Christmas Lives Here and some Soft Finish Cardstock for the cat.
I started with a stitched hexagon as base.
Instead of a doghouse I made a cat house. When you use this dies you only made the green part. I adhere some black paper so it looks more like a closed house.
After that I made the red parts and made some Christmas lights. The ligths are a dies from de Holiday Bird House. It brings me into the Christmas mood. I made some sparkling Christmas lights with the Silk Microfine Glitter. Just die-cut the lights with some double sided adhesive at the top. That is why I can put some glitter at it and rub it to the tape.
Now the cat is still missing. My nephew have a cat named Jellie. He is black with white and some green/yellow eyes. He is wearing a party hat from the party time dies.
When I finished everything the background was empty. It was a little late when I think about making a background with a stencil. So I did it very carefully at the sides.
Good Morning Creative Friends, it is Karan Gerber here to share a project with you today. This time i am sharing a card with you using one of my most favorite Floral dies, Florals 6.
I have put together a card using florals 6, the beautiful leaves from Planner Essentials 55 and Stitched Rectangles. I cut 3 of each of the flowers small medium and large so i could get a very full flower At this point i wasnt sure just how many i would use to create my flowers, on this card, my favorite, is a peony.
To achieve the look on the florals, i used distress sprays and patina alcohol ink. I first colored parts of the florals with peacock feather distress ink. and used peeled paint distress ink on the leaves. I also added some snow paste on them to add some texture.
I used Dragons eye Spark paint from prima on the leaves form the planner essentials set.
I hope you like my project share today. Have you tried creating flowers with florals 6 lately? Until next time, Happy Scrapping!
I’m here today with a new blogpost. I am very excited about this project because I can use a lot of different things. I used a Vignette Box from Tim Holtz filled with dies from Esther and Joset. It is such a fun project to fill.
As you can see I used a lot of different base dies. I used the cutting tags from the paperpad Christmas Lives here, Planner Essentials 42 (shapes, frames and words), the Library Pocket Filler Cards and the Nested Tags from Joset (1998). With these dies you can make a lot of different combinations. So let’s start with the first one.
I used the paper from Christmas Lives Here to start with. For this card I also used some corrugated cardboard and tear that. At the back I used a stencil with some icicle texture paste. Adhere the corrugated cardboard, a label and some holly with berries.
At the back I only made the lantern from the Lantern Page.
For the next card I stamped with the Peace and Joy stamp, Versamark and some red Embossing Powder. It is not that tight, but I like this for now. At the right I made a little tab.
At the back I used the stamp Crayons with Journaling Cards and another Holly with berries.
The next card is made with the Frames from Planner Essentials 42. Just die-cutting the full card with the beautiful bird and added a frame.
At the back of the frame I did some stamping, used an older label and added some tab behind the label. I also used the small trees from the Sidekick Essentials. And ofcourse some sparkling.
For the next card I started with some stencil and Ink for the background, added a part of the tree page and a small Nutcracker.
And at the back also some stamping with embossingpowder, some gifts and a stamped paperclip. I really love to make combinations with dies and stamps.
And last but not least I made these two tags with Santa and Mrs. Santa.
I think I told you everything for now haha. It is a long post this time, but I had some much fun making and sharing this. Below this post you can see all the used products.
Thankyou for visiting!
Kind regards

Hello crafty friends, it’s Summer Hills-Painter here. I am so excited about the new release for Joset. I absolutely loved designing Mr. and Mrs. Claus.
Preparation:
Cut one standard size A2 cardbase from white cardstock. Cut one layering piece at 4” x 5 ¼” from light blue cardstock. Cut snowy hills from white soft finish cardstock measuring 5 ¼” x approximately 2 ¾”. Using the Nature Edges die, cut the soft finish cardstock layer to create hills. Cut and assemble Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus. For extra dimension, I have used Copics to color in the hair and beard.
Instructions: Adhere the snowy hills to the light blue cardstock layer
Adhere the light blue cardstock layer to the card base
Adhere Mr. and Mrs. Claus to the card front
Stamp a sentiment on the inside of the card to finish of the card. Here I have used the stamp set.
Karen here. I’m jazzed today to be sharing a fun sneak peek of a amazing new collection from Joset – coming SOON to online and brick-and-mortar stores near you! It’s a fun new holiday release that’ll surely make you warm and cozy as you create holiday projects!
I absolutely love this new Fireplace set. I added a sentiment from the new set and though “believe” said it all as Santa Claus attempts to make his way into the house through the fireplace. The Fireplace and Santa Claus legs are mounted on a Rounded Stitched Rectangle.
I used 90 lb Soft Finish Cardstock to create this card. The fireplace on top cardstock was dipped in Distress Oxide Inks of Fired Brick and Worn Lipstick. Then I added 101mm Double Sided Adhesive to another piece of cardstock dipped in Fired Brick and Vintage Photo to create the brick around the fireplace. Having the adhesive on the back sure makes adding the pieces to the fireplace easy! After I started this, I re-did the mantel to be all Vintage Photo.
Eek, I love this new Cook Stove! Again, I used one of the new stamps for a sentiment. I cut the brown and black pieces from other cardstock. The doors of the stove were cut from grey cardstock with double sided adhesive. Easy to put together and warm and cozy. Perfect!
Thanks for checking out these cards. Can’t wait for you all to see the whole collection. It’s so fab!
Hello crafty friends, it’s Summer Hills-Painter here. Now that we have finally entered into Fall, I wanted to share a fall themed thank you card.
Preparation:
Cut 1 A2 card base. Cut 1 piece of patterned paper at 4 1/8″ x 5 3/8″. Cut one white card front from soft finish cardstock measuring 4″ x 5 1/4″. Cut sunflowers from the farm accessories die set. Cut pumpkins from the Hayride die set. Cut leaves from the Turkey die set. Cut leaves from the Easter Basket die set. Cut “thanks” from Words 2-Thinking of You die set.
Instructions: Using Rusty Hinge ink, blend ink in the center of the card front
Lightly draw a circle in the center of the card front
Splatter Gold and Black inks onto the card front
Adhere leaves from the Easter Basket die set forming a wreath shape
Adhere pumpkins, sunflowers, and fall leaves around the wreath
Adhere the sentiment and a few sequins card front. Adhere the card front to the patterned paper. Attach the patterned paper panel to the front of the card base and the card is complete
It is almost Fall over here in the Netherlands so time to play with this season. This time I made a page in my TN. I used the Holiday Special Kit and some dies from Joset.
First I made the page with the house dies and the Fabrick paper. I realy love the brick at the back. The roof is made with Kraft Cardstock paper from Tim Holtz. This is beautiful paper which you can scrub.
Then it is time to decorate the house with some fall stuff. At the left page I adhere a three with leaves and pumpkin’s. All these parts are coloured with Distress Oxide Ink.
At the right page I used stamp/dies from the girl and lantern from the Holiday Special Kit. You can colour this with anything you want, I thought the watercolour pallete from ECD is perfect for this.
At least I made a big pumpkin and some smaller with some leaves. And in the right corner I adhere a sentiment. I like to adhere everything in different depths. The leaves are between the pumpkins, behind the pumpkins and in front of the pumpkins.
I think this is everything about this page. I hope you liked this post and got some ideas.
Hi everyone, it’s Tina here. I struggle with male cards and I know lots of people who do to. With the Birthday Flip Card die you just have to choose patterned paper, assemble and add a cake and your done. Below you will find the steps to create your own card.
Step 1 – Diecut Birthday Flip Card (Base Solid) using White Soft Finish Cardstock. Fold all the score lines where the diecut scored. You now have your base card.
Step 2 – Diecut Birthday Flip Card (Top and Bottom Shapes) using Patterned Paper of your choice. This is a great way to use up your stash. Adhere to top and bottom of card front using 3mm Clear Double Sided Adhesive Tape.
Step 3 – Diecut Birthday Flip Card (Base Solid using only the center rectangle portion) using Patterned Paper of your choice. Trim where the score lines are so you have the center only. Adhere to card using 3mm Clear Double Sided Adhesive Tape.
Step 4 – Diecut Party Time (cake) using colored cardstock of your choice and (horn) using White Soft Finish Cardstock. Adhere to card using Kid’s Choice Glue.
This card can be used for several occasions by simply changing the sentiment and or patterned paper. Below is a link to all the products used. Thank you for stopping by and Happy Crafting!
Hello creative friends welcome back to the Elizabeth Crafts Blog, it is Karan Gerber here to share a holiday card with you. Although it seems a bit early to be sharing Holiday cards, my desk is full of Christmas Projects at the moment so i wanted to get a jump start on a few more.
Using Planner Essentials 47 to cut out the tree, i cut it out 6 times, just trimming off the tree and i layered them all in the circles. I then cut the deer on a coordinating paper from the collection i was using.
I used the stitched circles to create a winter scene, starting with the smaller circle on the inside layer, then the larger circle on the outside layer. Using foam adhesive to pop the layers to allow me to create this lovely winter scene
The florals 12, i used and cut out on Foamiran which is a light felt paper, i shaped and added stamens, paint , then a bit of snow paste and finally glitter to the centers. They turned out so beautiful, that i know i will be doing this technique again and again.
I love how this winter scene turned out, and what a great way to get a jumpstart on my Holiday Cards. I hope you dig into your planner essentials and see which ones will work for your holiday cards
