You set my heart on fire

June 23, 2022

Hii all! It’s me Lisanne with a new blogpost. So today I want to share this fire bus card. Sometimes you get an idea and it works out well, that’s what I had with this card.

So I started with the background. I die-cut the biggest Stitched Intended Square (1698) and coloured this with Distress Oxide Ink Tumbled Glass. First I blend it and after that I dipped the card into the wet ink on my sheet. Now I can make different layers. The last layer is made with Distress Ink Tumbled Glass. I love all the different layers just with one colour.

Here you can see a close-up picture.

I did the same for the grass. I used the Slimeline Adventure Edges (1925) and coloured this with Distress Oxide Ink Mowed Lawn. Love those splatters.

For the next step I started with the Retro Bus Kit. I want to make it as a firebus. The base is coloured with Distress Ink Barn Door. Also for the bus I used Black Soot, Prize Ribbon, Fossilized Amber and Hickory Smoke. I made the stripes with the pieces from the suitcase.

I adhere the stripes before I added all the other layers so you covered the edges.

The light at the top of the bus is from the Fire Accessoires. For this card I used more pieces, like the ladder, pawn and the helmet.

I also made the Elephant, he can bring more water to the fire.

Than it is time to adhere everything together. Then I saw a spot where someting is missing. I missed the splatters water, this looks realy fun I think. The Elephant needs his wiper to clean the window.

At least I stamped the sentiment ‘You set my heart on fire’ at the stitched banner. And coloured the edges with Tumbled Glass Distress Ink.

And here is the last close-up picture. I’ll hope you like this card as much as I do. I had a lot of fun making this.

Thank you for reading!

Kind regards Lisanne

Hello Sunshine –

June 15, 2022

Hello Friends and thank you for dropping in. Today I am sharing a card with you. This is designed using Florals 6, along with the Stitched Indented Rectangles and a couple new stencils on the background. 

I started by cutting out three of each of the floral sizes from florals 6 onto the soft finish cardstock. I also cut out five of the leaves. 

The Florals
I also cut out 3 of small florals from Florals 16. I colored the Florals 6 using Saltwater Taffy Distress Ink, and the Florals 16 using scattered straw. I then shaped the Florals 6 forming three peonies. The small florals 16 i just inserted a wired stamen. 


The Background
I wanted to use the new stencils and started  by stamping CS146 Background Stamp with Black Archival Ink, I also used CS253 Note Pieces ( the smaller graph stamp) Once I stamped the images, I used the S044 Planner Stencils 1 and I used Light Texture Paste. I then used the Number Stencil and used a blending tool using Saltwater Taffy on the background creating a tone on tone color. I then splatter some white acrylic ink and gold paint

I cut some stitched indented rectangles and only used strips of them to add some layers, what a great way to add layers, without all the bulk of a full layer. 

I used peach threaded pollens  in the center of the peonies and thought they blend so beautifully with the colors in the pattern paper. 

I hope you have enjoyed my project today. Until Next Time.

Happy Scrapping,

Karan

Summer Birthday Mini Slimline Card

June 7, 2022

Hi everyone, it’s Tina here. I have a fun Summer Birthday Card to share using some oldie but goodie Joset Design Dies. Below you will find the steps to create your own card.

Step 1 – Trim White Soft Cardstock to 7” x 6”, score at 3 1/2” and fold in half for a horizontal top fold card. (Mini Slimline)

Step 2 – Diecut Adventure Edges (clouds) to use as a stencil. Place the diecut on the card front and using a blender brush ink the edges in blue ink of your choice. Repeat this until 1/2” from the bottom (the card is landscape).

Step 3 – Using any alcohol markers of your choice use the dot technique to create sand. I used Copics in colors E30, E31, E33, E35.

Step 4 – Diecut Palm Trees in colored Cardstock or White Soft Finish to color. I used White and colored them with Copics in colors E35, E33, E31 for the base of the tree, G28, YG17, YG13 for the Palm Leaves and E37, E35 for the coconuts. Assemble and adhere to card using Kid’s Choice Glue.

Step 5 – Diecut Parrot in colored Cardstock or White Soft Finish to color. I used White and colored them with Copics in colors G28, YG17, YG13 for the head. B34, B14, B12 for the wings and feathers on top of the head. YR09, YR04, YR14 for the body, legs, feet. Y18, Y15, Y11 for the feathered tail. Assemble with Kid’s Choice Glue and adhere to card using Foam Tape.

Step 6 – Diecut Party Accessories in colored Cardstock or White Soft Finish to color. I used White and colored them with Copics. I used Y18, Y15, Y11 for the balloon and C4, C2 for the balloon string. Assemble using Kid’s Choice Glue and adhere to card using Foam Tape making sure that the string is behind the wing.

Step 7 – Stamp Life Is Better On The Farm sentiments using Blue Ink of your choice.

Inky Fun

June 3, 2022

Karen here today. I’m sharing a couple cards I made today using two of the fun product lines available here at Elizabeth Craft Designs. In both, I created a simple and easy inky background. In one, I added one of the critters available in the Joset’s Designs line as a Christmas card. in the other, I created a birthday card using a die from Anita’s Floral line.

This first card is a fun, quick Christmas Card. Below, I posted a picture of the inks that I used. They glide so smoothly on the 90 lb Soft Finish Cardstock that I used. So pretty. I created the Penguin using black cardstock and more of the Soft Finish Cardstock and put him on a Stitched and Fitted Circle. For the penguin feet and nose, I used an orange Copic, and I used the same ink on the background as I did for the hat. The sentiment is from the Cute Winter Sentiments set.

Another simple and yet elegant card – I love the colors on this card. I kept the Fern die cut white as I felt it really helped the background colors to pop. The sentiment is from the Smell the Flowers set.

Again, the blending on this beautiful Soft Finish Cardstock is so good and effortless. Thanks for stopping by today. Be sure to check out all of the amazing products.

Craftily yours, Karen

Is it Christmas Yet?

May 20, 2022

Karen here. I love doing holiday cards, and the best dies for holiday cards are here at Elizabeth Craft Designs. Is May too soon to start making our holiday projects? I think not!

I used the adorable Winter Bird in this card along with a sentiment from the Cute Winter Sentiments to create this card. The branch is colored with a brown Copic marker, and the legs and beak are colored with an orange Copic. The bird has distress inks in Festive Berries, Salty Ocean, and Tumbled Glass. I added some punched silvery stars and half beeds for some extra interest. How cute is that birdie??

For this card, I used the Hay Ride dies to create the fun Christmas Cart and added tress and presents from the Sleigh dies! I cut the pieces of this one in colored cardstock. Again, I used the Cute Winter Sentiments. In both cards, the card front is cut with a Stitched Rectangle die using 90 lb Soft Finish Cardstock.

Thank you for stopping by today!

Craftily yours, Karen

Happy Birthday

May 18, 2022

Good Morning Friends today i have a card to share with you designed using the Volume 4 Florals Release using Florals 15. 

Cutting the florals out using Soft finished cardstock, i colored them with saltwater Taffy Distress ink and the leaves with Peeled Paint

Shaping them using my shaping mat, i added some stamens to the center.  Then lightly added some snow paste on top to add more detail.

To create the dress i took a 5.75 x 12 inch piece of patterned paper and scored every 1/2 inch. Making sure to fold so that the ends were able to be folded inward. I free hand drew the top of the dress to create a tank style top and wrapped gold thread and colored seam binding to coordinate with the card. 

Thank you for dropping by today, I hope i have inspired you to create some dress cards of your own.

Hi everyone, it’s Tina here. I just love the Daffodils dies and I wanted to see what other colors they come in. I was amazed there is quite a few. I came across the Riot Daffodil and it is the inspiration for my card. The Riot is a reddish pink center but I chose to do mine in a darker pink. Below you will find the steps to create your own card.










Step 1 – Trim White Soft Finish Cardstock to 7” x 6”, score at 3 1/2” and fold in half for a vertical side fold card. (Mini Slimline)





Step 2 – Trim White Soft Finish Cardstock to 3 1/4” x 5 3/4”. Apply Light Blue Ink to the top of the panel using a Blender Brush and fading out to about 3/4. Adhere to card front using 3mm Clear Double Sided Adhesive Tape.





Step 3 – Diecut Daffodil using White Soft Finish if you will color in all the pieces. If not then use colored cardstock. I chose to color all my pieces in Copic Markers. I used a sticky mat to hold all the pieces including the negative while I colored. Assemble all and adhere to card using Kid’s Choice Glue.





Step 4 – Stamp Life Is Better On The Farm sentiment using Versafine Onyx Black Ink. Diecut the sentiment using Diagonal Stitched Fishtails. Trim of the left side and adhere to card using 3mm Clear Double Sided Adhesive Tape.




















This card can be used for many occasions by changing the sentiment. Below is a link to all the products used. Thank you for stopping by and Happy Crafting!

Hii everyone! Here Lisanne and back with a new blogpost.  This blogpost will be a short post but I realy like the result.










First  I made the cute Giraffe with Soft Finish Cardstock and Distress Ink. The little spots are diecut with Double Sided Adhesive at the back.










Then the background. I think it was time to use the Silk Microfine Glitter. For this card I want to create a jungle scene. So I used the Leaf background. For the base I used Soft Finish Cardstock and Double Sided Adhesive at the top so I can put Anitque Gold glitter at it. 





The leaf is colored with Distress Ink.










The next step is adhere the Giraffe at the back ground. As you can see I made Jungle leaves at the top of the card. The left corner is realy empty so I decided to make the party lanterns, make a leave and a banner with Hakuna Matata at it. 










So this was my short post about this card, but I hope you liked it. Thankyou for reading and hopefully see you soon.





Kind regards Lisanne

Mini Book with Desert Blooms

Good Morning friends, it is Karan Gerber here to share a mini book project with you.  This is designed using Florals 17 as well as the Mini Book Die. 










I die cut the florals and leaves out on the Soft Finish cardstock then colored front and back with rusty hinge distress ink and dabbed a bit of vintage photo on the tips to add some depth.










I shaped them with my stylus and mat and curled them into this shape, I hot glued them together and then added a bit more shape to them and inserted stamens. They remind me of small desert flowers I have seen in the Grand Canyon. 










To add a bit of detail to the box, i splattered watered down acrylic paint and some ancient gold coin paint. I decided to go on the center of the leaves with a thin paint brush with gold coin paint. 
I then added some art stones to add even more detail and dimension. 















I love how this little project turned out and hope you give this a try.

Hi all! I hope you doing all fine? I’m here with a new blogpost with the Time to travel collection and some dies from Joset and Ilse & Charlene. 





I used the Porthole page for this card. I die-cut it two times and just used two holes. 










I want to make a book of it.  So I used the Journal Edges and a piece of kraft cardstock. 










At this piece I used a stamp to pimp it. I think it looks realy grungy.










In the portholes I adhere the circle with the word ‘summer’ and the cute hippo with his safari hat.  He is looking through the porthole.










At the back you see the back of the Hippo with his tail. I only adhere the circles from the porthole inside.





I stamped a sentiment in one of the portholes and add some washi tape. 










This is my porthole card with the Hippo. I’ll hope you liked it. 





Thankyou for reading!





Kind regards Lisanne
