Neat and Tangled!

Happy Monday! Beautiful day here in Montréal :) My project today is a little different in terms of color than my usual posts but I felt that the graphic feel of the Neat and Tangled I used needed a punch of color.

I picked Inlaid Squares Cover Plate die up last week and I simply love it! Oh the possibilities :) I decided to pull out a mix of card stocks (all the products are listed and linked below) and die cut each pieces with the cover plate.

With this mix, I had enough to make four cards alternating the card stock. I did some die cut inlay with my Nuvo glue. I also die cut the Neat and Tangled Awesome die (which I have had for a while and use it regularly) with black card stock and the outline with vellum.

That's is, a quick and simple card that packs a punch.

Thanks for taking the time and have a great week!

Wplus9 Modern Anemones

Happy Monday crafty friends! I finally had a nice relaxing weekend that did not include working for my day job! So I allowed myself some much needed downtime in my craft room.

I don't know about you but I am hanging on to the last of summer as much as I can so I was inspired by the Wplus9 Modern Anemones set.

I stamped a bunch of the images from the Modern Anemones set on Neena Solar White 80 lbs card stock so that I could use my Copic Sketch markers.  I researched anemones on-line and decided to go with pink.  I then die cut a panel using my favourite Avery Elle Wonky Stitched Rectangle die.  I placed my flowers and then decided to die cut my Awesome sentiment from Neena along with StickIt and Fun Foam for added dimension.  I used some Distress Ink in Picked Raspberry in an ombré effect and then stamped the You Are from Avery Elle on top.

I finished of my project with some Pretty Pink Posh clear droplets.

Thanks for taking the time and have a great week!

Neat and Tangled Valentine's Day Tag!

Happy Monday! Kim with you this morning and I can't believe Valentine's Day is around the corner, 2017 is going by fast! My project today features the wonderful Neat and Tangled My Favorite Nut stamp set and dies :)

I thought the size and dimensions of the acorn with the squirrels was perfect to make my husbands Valentine's Day gift tag! I am in love with this set and the tag dimension is perfect. I colored the images with my Copics and used more caramel colours for the bottom and traditional browns for the top. I decided on warm greys for the squirrels to make them stand out.  I then did some surgery for the sentiment because I felt the "you are my nut" represented the recipient well! Lol! I embossed the sentiment in white. I then felt the tag needed some hearts, so I used a mix of Lawn Fawn heart dies to finish off the tag!

I used my We R Memory Keepers hole punch and then made the box out of Kraft card stock using my gift box punch board (also by We R Memory Keepers). Then attached the tag with Lawn Fawn Peppermint Twine and natural twine.

I think he will get a kick out of this! Have a great week!

Thanks for taking the time
