Box Card

Good Morning
This is a card i made using my new Tonic Studios
Pop Up Dies.
I love them ,they are so easy to use and there are many different ways you can use them.
This card i thought was something a bit different, it adds lots of dimension but at the same time
folds flat and fits in a C5 envelope.
From the front it does look a bit boring,but the magic happens when the little doors are open.
Hope you like it
Hugs xx

A Bit Fancy

Good Morning All

Today i decided to show a card that is quite fancy, but at the same time easy to achieve. I have also made the matching box, which to me makes a card that little bit more special.

This card was made using Spellbinders Ornate Grand Ovals.
I used to of the ovals and scored them a quarter of the way across and folded,
i then stuck them to a 8"x8" piece of card, then used the next size down of the Grand Ovals to mat and layer
Then decorated using different dies and embossing folders.
To close the card i used a bit of ribbon and a ribbon slider.
I think this looks very effective but so easy to achieve.

This is the matching box.
I used Ultimate Pro to make the box,
then used an Embossalicous embossing folder to create background ( cannot remember name sorry )
I then used some spare embellishments i had, and Spellbinders Bitty Blossoms to make the flowers.
Such a special Card.

Good Evening all. i thought where this is a new blog i would start for the next few days showing cards i had made some time ago. I will try my hardest to remember what i have used.

I thought this would be quite apt as it is coming up to Valentines Day.
This was a quick easy card, I used X Cuts heart dies for my back drop and Spellbinders border dies on the card itself , the stamp i believe is by Creative Expressions ( I could be wrong ),then coloured using Spectrum Noir pens.
