Angel Prayers Just for You

Happy Friday!

I'm posting today on behalf of

Conie Fong Art & Design!

My card was created with

Angel Prayers Bundle.

I used the version of this sweet angel with flowers.

The image was colored with Castle Arts Pasteltint Pencils.

I added a bit of glitter glue to the halo and wings.

As is my usual, I fussy cut.

The card background is a die cut and embossed panel.

I added foam tape to the back of this panel before

matting with a matte silver card stock.

This matted panel was adhered to a piece of lavender card which

covers the white A2, top folding card.

I popped the angel with foam tape onto the card.

The sentiment was die cut.

I glued it to a piece of darker purple card, fussy cut and

adhered with foam tape to complete my card.

Thanks for taking a look at my card project.

I hope you have a great weekend.

Thinking of You Card

I always try to have a "Thinking of You" card on hand. How about you? They are appropriate for many occasions or no occasion at all. It's nice to let someone know you are thinking of them for whatever reason.

HI! I'm here with my most recent inspiration project for Pajama Crafter Stamps.

I am using the new Birds of a Feather Stamps for my Thinking of You Card.

Emboss Resist

When I saw the feather stamp in this set I thought it would be perfect for the emboss resist technique.

Stamp the feather stamp from the stamp set several times with Versamark ink on white card stock. Heat emboss with gold embossing powder.

Blend 3 shades of blue ink over the embossed feathers. My blending was really easy to do with Dye Ink Blending Solution.

Cut the embossed panel down to 3 x 6 1/4 inches.

Card Base

Score a piece of 10 x 6 1/2 inch piece of white card stock at 5 inches along the 10 inch side and fold to form a 5 x 6 1/2 inch card base.

Cut gold glitter card stock to 5 x 6 1/2 inches to cover the front of the card base.

A piece of dark teal card stock is cut to 4 3/4 x 6 1/4 inches. Mat the emboss resist panel with gold glitter card and added to the teal panel. Adhere a piece of ribbon to the left side. Add this piece to the card base.

Finishing

To complete I die cut the sentiment out of gold glitter card stock and adhered beneath the emboss resist panel. Adding a bow to the ribbon is the last step.

Thanks for taking a look at my Thinking of You Card project. I hope I have provided a little inspiration for you today!

Hoppy Easter Card

 Easter will be here soon and I have a cute “Hoppy Easter Card” to share. 

Hey there! It’s Judy here with my latest CutCardStock inspiration project. Do you make Easter cards? I always make a few each year. Doing so makes me look forward to spring and I am ready for spring!

Card Stock

This little card is fairly easy to put together. I am using a variety of card stock in spring colors and dies.

DCS Discount Card Stock: Blue Calico Discount Card Stock 

Pop Tone GRAPE JELLY Discount Card Stock

Lessebo Colors Premium AMETHYST Discount Cardstock

Lessebo Colors Premium Bubble Gum Pink Discount Cardstock

Basis Soft Pink Card Stock

DCS Discount Card Stock: Canvas Textured Mantis Green Card Stock

Pop Tone BANANA SPLIT Discount Card Stock

Cougar White Smooth CardStock 

DCS Discount Card Stock: Black Card Stock

Die Cutting

All of the pieces of this card are die cuts. I am starting with the bunny. The dies I am using are from the Spellbinders Large Die of the Month for February 2025, Dancing’ Hoppy Bunnies Everywhere.

Cougar White Smooth CardStock is for cutting the bunny’s body, legs and arms. Cutting Basis Soft Pink Card Stock for ears and cheeks and a small scrap of DCS Discount Card Stock: Black Card Stock for eyes and nose.

I am putting together a girl bunny, so I cut a dress and bow out of Lessebo Colors Premium AMETHYST Discount Cardstock.

Before assembling the bunny I am inking the edges of her body, arms and legs with gray ink. Adding the facial and ear pieces is next.

Piecing the rest of the bunny is next.

Die cutting some eggs is the next step using the same Spellbinders set above.

I am using DCS Discount Card Stock: Blue Calico Discount Card Stock , Pop Tone BANANA SPLIT Discount Card Stock and Lessebo Colors Premium Bubble Gum Pink Discount Cardstock.

Die cut the background pieces.

Pop Tone GRAPE JELLY Discount Card Stock and Pop Tone BANANA SPLIT Discount Card Stock create tiny flowers.

The sentiment is also cut from the Spellbinders set with DCS Discount Card Stock: Blue Calico Discount Card Stock.

I die cut clouds and a fence out of Cougar White Smooth CardStock with dies from Newtons Nook.

The grass die is from Newtons Nook as well. Cut it with the DCS Discount Card Stock: Canvas Textured Mantis Green Card Stock.

Card Assembly

I am creating a. card base net with a 6 1/2 x 10 inch piece of DCS Discount Card Stock: Blue Calico Discount Card Stock. Score a 5 inches along the 10 inch side and fold.

Now that we have all of our die cuts and card base, let’s assemble.

We start with the cloud and 3 of the 4 grass die cuts.

Adhere 4th grass die cut and the fence next.

The cute little bunny goes on.

Eggs are next.

To complete, I add the sentiment and randomly add the flowers.

I am really happy with my cute “Hoppy Easter Card” and hope you like it!

Join us over on the CutCardStock Facebook Page and the newly revamped Facebook Group Creating with CutCardStock for more inspiration.

And even more inspiration can be found on the CutCardStock Creative Blog.

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Just had to pop in and share this card created with

You're My Pot of Gold Stamps

Pajama Crafter Stamps

 I stamped the beer mugs from the stamp set and colored with Prismacolor Pencils.

3 large shamrocks and 2 small ones were stamped with a variety of green inks.

I added a little glitter glue to them and the beer foam.

The papers used are from

Emerald Isle 6 x6 Paper Pad.

I cut one of the double sided papers in strips and alternated both sides

to create a striped background with solid green strips.

The mugs are popped onto layered die cuts.   

Sentiments were stamped, trimmed to strips and popped as well.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Bunny Centerpiece

Are you ready for spring? 

I know I am but living in Colorado we probably have a little more winter to go. 

Hi there! 

I'm here today posting on behalf of Clear Scraps. 

And I thought if it can’t be spring quite yet why not create 

a spring themed bunny centerpiece for the “feel of spring”.  

I am using 3 products, the Small Bunny Shiplap Shape, Medium Wood Stand and the 

Faith Embellishment Chipboard Punchout.

Start by choosing a patterned paper

Trace the bunny on the backside of the patterned paper.

Cut out the tracing

Paint the back of the bunny with white acrylic paint.

Adhere the patterned paper to the front of the bunny with Mod Podge. Apply Mod Podge to the top of the patterned paper to. Seal.

Paint the 2 pieces of the wood stand with green acrylic paint.

Paint the Easter Egg from the chipboard punch out light purple.

Glue the 2 wood stand pieces together.

Add more color to the egg.

Gather the wood stand, the egg and a variety of flowers.

Adhere the bunny to the wood stand.

Add some upright flowers.

Adhere the egg.

Add a few more flowers

Cut 2 pieces of ribbon. One is for a bow and the other will go around the bunny’s neck.

Add ribbon and bow and the centerpiece is complete.

Thanks for taking a look at my Bunny Centerpiece project. I hope I have provided inspiration for you to create your own spring centerpiece.
