Gift Card Holder with TLC Designs

Hi everyone, I'm on the TLC Designs Blog sharing some gift card holders created with TLC Designs papers, stamps and dies.

I really don't like give gift cards as they seem so impersonal, so I like to create special gift card holders.

Starting with black cardstock cut 5" x 10", I scored it at 2", 4 3/4", 6" and 7 1/4" and folded as shown above.

I glued the center piece together along the edges as this will create the holder for the gift card.  Using the oval die from the Celebrate Frame Die, I placed it along the fold, taped it in place, then die cut.

Cut papers form the Blooming Medley Designer Paper Pack to fit both the outside and inside of the gift card holder.

Using the birthday cake ribbon strip from the Celebrate Ribbon Die, die cut it from white cardstock and die cut the cake from black cardstock, then layer together.  Fold the strip around the gift card hold and glue the ends together.

Create a second gift card holder using other papers from this paper pack.  Reverse the birthday cake ribbon strip, cutting the strip in black and the cake in white. 

Add a phrase from the Celebrate Sentiments.

Fun with Frosty Fairies

 Hi everyone, it's time to share some of the new products available at TLC Designs.

How cute are these stamps?  I've used the fairy from the Frosty Fairies set and the chipmunks from the Snow Buddies set.

Coloring the fairy with Copic Markers, I then die cut her using dies from the Happy Dragonfly Circle. 

Using paper from the Watercolor Naturals Paper Pack, I embossed it then assembled the card.  The phrase is also from the Frosty Fairies set.  For a fun effect, I added several chipmunks from the Snow Buddies set.

TLC Snowflakes n' Ice

Hi everyone, I'm sharing a slimline card using the new TLC Designs Snow Buddies digital stamp set.

Using the Zinnia Slimline Die, I created a card from black cardstock.

Folding cardstock, I placed the die over the fold to create the card base.  To complete the full card design, I then die cut a separate panel to adhere on the card base.

Printing the snowmen in a line, I used the next die to create the next card layer.  I added touches of color to the snowmen, then die cut the sentiment and added it to the corner of the card with foam adhesives for dimension.

Thanks for stopping by.

Thinking about you

 Hi everyone.  I'm using some amazing stamps from  Blank Page Muse.

Stamps used: Special Day Clear Sentiments

Stamp the flower randomly about a white panel.  Add butterflies in the open spaces.  

I stamped Thinking about you on the panel, but didn't like it, so I stamped it again on a scrap of cardstock.

The panel was matted with yellow cardstock before being added to a black card.  

The phrase was matted with black cardstock and added to the card with foam adhesives for dimension.

Thanks for stopping by.

Thanksgiving with Etchall

Hi everyone, are you getting ready for Thanksgiving?  How about creating a centerpiece for your table?

I die cut give thanks multiple times and arranged the letters around a plate.

Taping off the center of the plate, I placed etchallⓇ etching creme around the plate.

Letting the etching creme sit approximately 15 minutes, I removed it and placed the etching creme back into its original container.

After rinsing and drying the plate, "give thanks" stands out against the frosted plate.

I created a Thanksgiving centerpiece by adding die cut felt leaves and a jar containing fall themed ornaments and flowers.

Here For You with TLC Designs

 Hi everyone, DT-Steph Ackerman here and sharing a slimline card.

I've used the Slimline Multi Slider dies to create the base of my card. This die set has all the elements you need to create beautiful cards depending on the dies you choose.

The main die cuts this incredible design and since we are in the middle of fall, I placed paper from the Emerald Fall Paper Pack behind the die cut panel.  This allowed the wonderful colors to show through.

For more color, I used the center die to die cut the green panel from the Emerald Fall Paper Pack.  Stamping and coloring one of the trolls from the Troll Cricket Fun stamp set, I fussy cut her then added her to the center of the card.

4U was die cut from the Cherry on Top die set.

I die cut the center die again from white cardstock to add to the interior of the card onto which I stamped the worlds from an older stamp set - Hopping Friends.

Finally, I added some "bling" about the card.

Thanks for stopping by.

Thanksgiving Centerpiece with Kunin Felt

Hi everyone,  I'm participating in the Designer Crafts Connection blog hop, and this month we are partnering with  Kunin Felt.

Kunin Felt Brand is manufactured in the U.S from recycled plastic bottles reclaimed from landfills.  It comes in two weights, Classic and Premium and can be found in felt sheets as well as in bolts to be sold by the yard.  Kunin Felt can be found at Hobby Lobby, Walmart, JoAnn and Michaels, Fabric.com and Amazon. 

I used an assortment of colors in both the Classic and Premium felt squares.  Using a Sizzix leaf die, I die cut an assortment of colors - each felt square die cut beautifully.  I was able to die cut 2-3 leaves with each pass without issue.

I wanted a fall centerpiece so I arranged the leaves about a glass plate, then added a die cut scalloped circle to the center.

A glass jar filled with fall themed ornaments and flowers finished off the centerpiece 

This will look great on our holiday table this season.

Please stop by the Designer Crafts Connection blog to see what the designers have created this month with products from the Kunin Group.

Thanks for stopping by.

Happy Thanksgiving Treat Baskets

Hi everyone, it's a new month and the challenge on the Scor-Pal blog is to create anything you want, just be sure it includes more than one score.

Wouldn't these look amazing sitting on the dining room table at Thanksgiving?

They are super easy to create using cardstock, left over scraps of pattern paper, great stamps and dies from Trinity as well as your trusty Scor-Pal for perfectly scored lines to create the boxes and Scor-Tape to hold it all together

Thanks for stopping by.
