Be Mine

Deanna here with another fun project for the Dies R Us inspirational blog.  Here is what I made for you today.

To make the card I started out with some pink card stock that I cut and folded to make a 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" card base.  Next I added a black mat cut at 4 1/8" X 5 3/8".  Then I cut and embossed a piece of white card stock that was 4" X 5 1/4".

Next I die cut the Tutti Design Heart Flower Garden die out of some more of that pink card stock using my Big Shot and my adapter plate.  The adapter plate is really worth buying..  It makes cutting these intricate dies so much easier.

 Finally I assembled my card and finished it with some iridescent sequins. Next I stamped my sentiment and fussy cut it out and adhered it to my card and the card is done.

Hi everyone, Deanna here with another project for the Dies R Us Inspirational Blog.  Here is what I have for you today.

To make the shaped circle card I started with a 4" X 4" stitched circle die from Memory Box. 

To make the shaped circle card I started with a piece of card stock cut at 5" X 10" and folded it in half.  I placed my die on the card stock with one side of the die on the side of the folded card stock.  See the picture above.  By doing this the die won't cut the card stock where it is hanging over the fold.

Once die cut you will have a shaped circle card ready to decorate.

If you want to you could cut a 4" X 4" red circle and adhere it to the card front to cover the folded area.  I chose not to do that.  I did cut a 3.3" X 3.3" out of white card stock.

Next I took the Heart Party Craft Circle die from Memory Box.  I cut the die out of some red glitter card stock and attached it to the center of my white circle.  Next I used the Tutti Designs Love Die and using the bigger of the two dies cut a red and black Love.  I offset them slightly and adhered them together and then to my card front.  Once done you end up with this card. Be sure to use your metal adapter plate to help insure a great cut with this fine detail die.

Hi everyone, Deanna here with another quick and easy card that I made for the Dies R Us Inspirational Blog, that could be used for Valentine's Day, an Anniversary, Wedding, or anytime you want to tell someone you love them.  Here is what I made.

To make my card, I started out with a reddish pink card stock that I cut and scored to make a 4 1/4"  5 1/2" card base.  Next I die cut my image from white card stock.

This die measures about 5 1/4" across and is from the Tutti Designs Hanging Love die.  I did use the adapter plate when I cut this die as it has some very small and fine detail cutting areas. It is so worth getting the adapter plate and you can use it with other fine detail dies besides Tutti Designs and it makes for a much better cut of all the fine detail dies out there like Tutti Designs.

Next I adhered the die cut to my card base and added some rhinestones and the card was done.

Bird Tapestry

Deanna here with another inspirational post for the Dies R Us blog.  Here is what I have for you today.

To make my card I started with a piece of yellow card stock and using the biggest die in the Lawn Fawn Stitched Stackable Rectangle dies cut a piece of card stock 4 1/4" X 5 1/2".  I used some Post-it tape to hold the die in place while cutting it.

Next I took some lavender card stock and using the Bird Tapestry die from Tutti Designs and die cut may bird mat. Again I used some removable Post-It tape to hold the die in place while I cut it.

To finish my card I adhered the tapestry layer to the stitched rectangle layer and then added everything to some yellow card stock that was cut and scored to make a 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" card base.
I chose not to add a sentiment to my card at this time because there are just so many possible occasions that you could use this card.  I think it would be perfect for a birthday, just because, hello, sympathy, get well . . . The list is endless.

Hi everyone, Deanna here with another inspirational project for the Dies R Us blog.  Here is what I have for you today.

This fun die is the Tutti Design Snow Globe Scene die. Many of these dies are very intricate dies to cut.  Tutti Designs makes a metal adapter plate to use when cutting these dies.

The adapter plate acts as a shim to help ensure these dies cut properly the first time. I layer my base plate, then my no cut cutting pad, then my die face up. Next I put the card stock on top of the die then my cutting plate and then my metal adapter plate.  I then run everything through my die cut machine and get a perfect cut. You can use this adapter plate with other intricate dies besides Tutti Designs.

For the card itself, I used some distress watercolor paper and stormy sky and chipped sapphire distress and inked about half to two thirds of the paper to create a sky for my card.  I lightly spritzed it with some water to distress the sky a bit. The distress watercolor paper is pre cut to 4 1/4 X 5 1/2".

Once I had the sky ready, I rounded the corners of the card stock and attached my snow globe die.

Now, what's a snowy scene without some glitter.  So I used my zig two way glue pen to apply some adhesive to the snow areas of the die cut and applied some Hero Arts prisma glitter to the areas.

Next I cut a white card and scored it to make a 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" card base.  I rounded the corners so they matched the card front.  I attached the card front to my card base.  I added some snowflake sequence to the card and it was finished.
