Lovely and Beautiful Three Panel Card - Chain Card Swap for Sharni

Welcome to the Chain Card Swap Blog Hop! This hop is all about Sharni and the CASES of her card. I encourage you to start the beginning and follow along to see the progression of her card through the group. Its so interesting to see the development!

I was 3rd in the chain for this round and have created a sweet 3 panel DSP card with an embossed background. Whilst the products I've used are retired/last chance items, this design would suit almost ANY occasion and paper combination. 

Lets take a closer look at this card. I love the simplicity and delicate lines from the fine boarders and soft colours. 

A little strip of scrap DSP is perfect for any inside panel

Whilst the paper I used is the last chance item Lovely and Beautiful 12x12" I always like to highlight any stamping I've done. Often its the sentiments that can be hard to identify which set they've come from .. as you can see "Happy day" comes from Unbridled Beauty (retired).

I was 8th in the chain for this round and have created a bright and happy Sunflower Birdy card.

Lets take a closer look at this card.

I started with a standard C6 fold in Old Olive, followed by a dry embossed background of Darling Duckling. The main focal panel is DSP from Sunflower Fields. The x3 birds and greeting are from Cutest Crew I GOLD heat embossed onto Old Olive and Secret Sea

 A nice little touch of DSP for the inside

Combining these 2 products - Sunflower Fields and Cutest Crew - worked so well together worked I was genuinely shocked.

I was 4th in the chain for this round and have created a card with this beautiful horse. The main technique here is repeat stamping with the one image and spotlighting on one with coloir.

Lets take a closer look at this card.  I stamped in new Peaceful Pine directly onto Soft Sea Foam cardstock, even the colouring with Stampin Blends looks great

A little stamping for the inside the carry the theme

Although now retired, this set and any other set would look great when highlighting an image. Give it a try!

Mini Treat Bags with Scalloped Christmas Cheer Dies

 Welcome back to another Let's Craft Together Blog Hop! This months theme is Treat Packaging.

I was inspired by a cute treat box I saw made by Melva Peters from Canada and CASE'd her idea using Scalloped Christmas Cheer Dies to recreate my mini treat bags. 

Lets take a closer look at this project.

I made one Christmas themed and one birthday inspired - its my birthday month so I'll gift something to myself. To finish out the bag I tied some ribbon at each end of the bag. 

These would make great table gifts at Christmas time

These were so fun to make! I can see this design will come in handy for all sorts of treats or cookies!

The scallop dies will be a popular staple in my craft room

Lets Go with a Football Easel Card - Chain Card Swap for Ros

Welcome to the Chain Card Swap Blog Hop! This hop is all about Ros and the CASES of her card. I encourage you to start the beginning and follow along to see the progression of her card through the group. Its so interesting to see the development!

I was 10th in the chain for this round and have created this Easel card. I hope my card looks like Ros's!

Lets take a closer look at this card.

I started with stamping and cutting all the images of this set - the shirt, ball and flags. Green is my favourite cololur so to make this card POP I had to add another colour so Pumpkin Pie was it. 

This fun fold is easy to recreate, check out my tutorial below

The inside panel is still large enough for a handwritten message. 
I split the greeting so that the "biggest" is raised with foam dimensionals, this acts as a stopper, so the easel panel doesnt fall down.

This set has been a wonderful addition to my collection, especially as my own soccer season has ended it came in handy for all my thank you cards.
