Painter’s Garden Inspiration with Jennifer Kotas
Hello! I’m Jen Kotas from Who Stole My Glitter and I’m happy to be here today to share three cards featuring the Painter’s Garden Collection from Susan Tierney Cockburn. There are five new flower Dies in this collection along with a 3D Embossing Folder. Susan typically colors her flowers with Copic Markers and uses a special cardstock from Spellbinders. I prefer to cut my flower pieces from heavy-weight colored cardstock from Spellbinders. I added detail to the flowers with ink. It’s a time saver but I also love how the cardstock softens as I shape it but doesn’t tear. For detailed instructions on creating the flowers, please visit the Spellbinders…

Here I chose three different purple varieties of pansies to emulate for this pretty square thank you card. Die cut Susan’s Garden Specialty Cardstock using the…

Metallic Embossed CAS Cards
Hi, it’s Mona Toth here, in this post I have an easy-peasy CAS card inspiration for you with Flurry of Snowflakes 3D embossing folder.

Today I share with you the projects I created featuring the new amazing Succulents Stamp Set by Simon Hurley and Spellbinders Coordinating Dies!

GOOD VIBES For my first card I chose to stay in my coloring comfort zone. I stamped the succulent plant with the Archival Ink Pad Jet Black on watercolor paper. I colored it with Daniel Smith Extra…

Butterfly Kisses: 3 Ways – Complicated to Simple by Joan Bardee
Hello and welcome! I’m Joan Bardee and today I’m featuring 3 cards using the Butterfly Kisses stamp and die set designed by the amazing Simon Hurley. I’ve got something for everyone here; the first card has lots of layers and colors; the second repeats 2 images; and the third is clean and simple. Used a lot of purple on these cards, which is a color that I rarely use – but butterflies just seem to work with it! Floral Frame Card Used Yana Smakula’s “perfect cardmaking formula” to design this card. This was a stretch for me as I usually make much simpler cards. Yana’s formula is to place a…

Hello crafty friends! It’s Jung here, and today, I’m sharing 3 cards that I made using the new Anemone Blooms collection by Yana Smakula.

First, I foiled the Anemone Glimmer Blooms hot foil plate on smooth white cardstock with polished brass foil.
