Rainbow Floral Stitched Card – Spellbinders and Simon Says Stamp

Hi friends! Today’s card is my first time ever stitching a card, and I LOVED it – I can’t wait to buy more stitching dies!

If you want to watch me make this card, check out YouTube on making this card below!

Using the Stitched Floral Flip Frame Etched Dies from Spellbinders and cardstock from Neenah Astrobright and Recollections, I die-cut a TON of flowers in a rainbow of colours. Since I was using lighter cardstock for this, I die-cut each stitched flower twice (for a total of four) so that I could glue two of them together to make the cardstock better for the stitching. I also die-cut the simple flower with no stitching four times in each colour – two for the back of the stitched flowers and two to help create the repeating pattern on the finished card.

After stitching all of the flowers and gluing the backings on, I die-cut a large Happy Birthday sentiment three times using the Simon Says Stamp Large Fancy Happy Birthday Die. I glued the sentiments together to give the card some more dimension.

To finish, I attached everything to an A7 card base – the happy birthday sentiment is raised using foam squares.

Thanks for reading. Catch ya next time!

CAS ‘Cool’ Birthday Card – Echo Park Paper Co. & Simon Says Stamp

Hi friends! Today’s card is a clean and simple birthday card using a cool colour scheme! While I love including many colours and elements on my cards, I always love making clean and simple cards once and a while!

If you want to watch me make this card, check out the YouTube video below! This is my first time uploading a card making video to YouTube so I can’t wait for you all to watch it!

I first started by masking off certain parts of the my stencil using sticky notes – I used the Dreamy Dy Diagonal Stencil by Echo Park Paper Co.. Once the stencil was ready, I used the following distress oxides and inks to create a simple line gradient in the bottom corner of my card front:

  • Villanous Potion
  • Wilted Violet
  • Faded Jeans
  • Salty Ocean
  • Mowed Lawn
  • Twisted Citron

To finish, I stamped two small and simple sentiments from the Simon Says Stamp Best Year Yet stamp and adhered my card front to an A2 card base. The stamp set I used is from Simon Says Stamp May Card Kit – I LOVE this card kit and cannot wait to make birthday cards using the supplies in this kit.

Thanks for reading. Catch ya next time!
