Chevron Glitter Paper!!

1/9/2018

We have been carrying the Chevron Glitter Paper by doodlebug for a number of years now and I just want to take a moment and share with you some *FUN, NEW IDEAS!!*

The Chevron Glitter Paper can be used in LOTS of ways!!

One of the easiest things you can do with this paper is cut along the chevron edge to give your paper a fun border!

Check out this idea where we stamped out a Graduation Background stamp and then framed it out with the Black Chevron Glitter Paper above and below the image!

On the INSIDE of the card, I cut out an extra piece of the chevron and placed a die-cut that says "Party!" on the inside!!

Great card idea to make invitations for a Graduation Party!

If you just want to make a card... just for fun or to give to a friend... this idea is easy to do!!

With a couple stamps, turquoise card stock and Orange Chevron Glitter Paper, you can make this card too!!

Again, we just cut out the edge of the paper, following the chevron design, and it's enough to add a little bit of interest to the bottom of the card!

Here at the store, we have a *Die-cut Machine* that customers get to use! The shapes are fairly basic, but there are some REALLY FUN shapes in there!

One of the shapes is this adorable little mitten!

We cut 2 mittens out of the Purple Chevron Glitter Paper, added some fun ribbon along the base of the mitten, and attached the 2 pieces by creating a "hinge" so it can open up!!

The little mitten shape *fits a gift card perfectly* !!

Another one of the shapes from our store die-cut machine is this adorable Champagne Bottle!!

I wanted to make this a card that you can use for ANY event... New Year's, a Wedding, a Retirement...

So I just did a black and gold color palette and used SHINY RIBBONS as the "champagne!"

To finish off the card, I used this die-cut from Cottage Cutz, Celebrate

If you've ever wanted to make a "gate fold" style card.. make it even MORE SPECTACULAR by adding a heart! Cut your heart in half, add a sentiment, and finish off the card by adding some ribbon!

We also used this Heart Embossing Folder from Taylored Expressions to make this card *even better*

Stop by to see us to see all the colors of Chevron Glitter Paper!

What ideas can you come up with??

To see these ideas in person, stop by the store!
We are open 7 days a week, and we would LOVE to see you!!

Halloween and Fall ideas!

8/12/2016

I have been *Loving* all the new Halloween and Fall items that have been coming into the store these last few weeks!!

Little B has the *BEST* 3D stickers for Halloween. The little pumpkins and witch's hats are really cute!

We have all sorts of washi tape too.. Bekah made this card, which I love so much! So perfect for Thanksgiving. What an easy way to make a card.. just layer decorative tapes with a *pop* of glitter tape to add more depth!!

These stamps, which came out just a few weeks ago, have been my favorite of the season so far! That owl stamp... it truly is such a striking image.. and great for fall AND winter depending on the colors you use!!

Memory Box has come out with some wonderful designs this year. They are quick to put together, making it easy to make invitations, a fall card, or even name cards for your Thanksgiving dinner!

The Batty Triptych is one of those designs where you can use both the cut-out and the reverse image to make cards!! Love this idea..

By far, the best fall card I've seen all week is this hen card!!! The Penny Hen stamp is from Pink Ink, I just love this stamp so much, and the chicken wire from Cottage Cutz really makes this card come together!! This stamp sentiment is from Verses Rubber Stamps.

There is even more on its way... swing by the store to see it all!!

Embossing Paste Idea and Tutorial

6/25/2016

I recently came across this brilliant idea on Instagram and I just HAD to share!

To make this card you will need:
A home die cut machine
Die cut ice cream cone
Embossing paste
Ink (I used Distress Inks)
Palette knife
Silicone craft mat
Paper
Ribbon
Glitter and/or sprinkles

Use a die cut shape ice cream cone (I used this one from Cottage Cutz-- Waffle Cone). I cut the ice cream cone out of 3 different colors of paper.
I took out a little bit of the original embossing paste (which dries white) and used a single drop if ink and mixed it in, dying the paste a different color. I used picked raspberry for the pink one and dried marigold for the orange one.

Then I just scraped the paste off the mat and loosely laid it on the top of the cone, making it look like a REAL scoop of ice cream!!
I then just used plain white for the other cones, and added glitter on one and faux sprinkles on the other by just slicing up a tiny strip of 3 colors of paper, in this case one was a gold glitter paper.

*You can use REAL sprinkles too!! Just wait until the paste is almost dry and sprinkle the sprinkles on and barely press them in.*

To finish off the card I used ribbon by May Arts and a stamp from the *adorable* Avery Elle stamp set, The Scoop.

What a cute card and such a clever technique!!!

Cute Animals and Baby Things!!

6/7/2016

We have a large selection of baby themed die cuts and stamps right now.. and I have been playing around with them this weekend.

Cottage Cutz has some ADORABLE little Farm animals out . By adding a sweet saying or pairing them with Pastel colors, you can make a sweet invitation for a baby shower, send a card to welcome a newborn, or even welcome a newly adopted young child..

I just loved the little sheep from Cottage Cutz!! I combined it with a die cut from Impression Obsession and the field of flowers die cut from Memory Box!

If you have twins to celebrate, cut out your dies 2 times and interplay the colors! Use the baby sayings from Impression Obsession with it to create this cute card.

And in case you haven't seen them, these little stitched animals are SO CUTE!!!! I just want them to hold little balloons or an umbrella!!! (Or some of those cute props from Elizabeth Craft!!)
Come by today to see all the baby die cuts and stamps.. they seem to go pretty quick!
