Let's Get SHAMROCKED!

Happy Friday everyone! I can't believe today's the last day of February! So what's up next? St. Patrick's Day, and this cutie patootie is ready to get shamrocked! I don't even drink, but I think I need to join this penguin for a few rounds! Maybe that pot of gold will come my way also, haha!

Jaded Blossom products really make creating cute and fun cards easy! To create the penguin, I used Gnome Friends: Penguin Die, Gnome Dies: St. Patrick's Day Add Ons (hat), Gnome Dies: Pot Of Gold Add Ons (shamrock on hat, beer), and Penguin Faces Stamp Set. For the background scene, I used Border Dies 2 (grass area), Rainbow Dies, and Gnome Dies: Pot Of Gold Add Ons (pot of gold, shamrocks on pot). The sentiment is from Lucky Vibes Stamp Set.

Remember, we have a current "USE A STENCIL" Challenge until March 1st for a chance at winning a free stamp set! You don't have to have a blog to play along. You can load your card to the Jaded Blossom's Garden of Creativity Facebook Group and then add your link from Facebook. There are instructions HERE to help you!

Have a great weekend!

You're Earresistable

Hello, crafty friends! The weather is getting warmer, flowers are blooming, and I am no longer needing a jacket. It's time for spring projects! I am exited to share this Easter treat holder!

I used the Candy Bar Slider Die for this spring project. I die cut the base with a thick cardstock and die cut a colorful background for the peeps. I die cut 3 of the Chubby Bunny die with vibrant watercolor paper, including bows and glasses. I added some black cardstock to the back of the bunny die for the eyes and nose.

I added a sentiment with Bunny Trail set and stamped it on a die from Mini Tag Dies 3. I added the Hershey bar to the holder and it is ready to gift!

Thanks for stopping by!

Get Well Wishes

Hi everyone and happy Wednesday!

 Stacey from Stacey's Creative Corner here today 

and I have a Get Well Soon card to share with you.

I don't know about your area, but there seems to be a lot of cold and flu cases in mine so I thought I better have a card to have on hand just in case. 

I created an A2 cardbase from some white cardstock and covered the front with some dotted patterned paper. I added a strip of blue patterned paper along one side and doodled around the perimeter with a black Micron pen. I used the Stylized Rectangle Dies and cut out a piece of plaid patterned paper and layered it on top of a white Stylized Scallop Rectangle Dies. I popped it up onto my card with some foam tape and started building my little bear. For my bear, I used the Gnome Friends: Bear Die, Bear Faces and the Gnome Dies: Medical Add Ons. Once I had my bear built, I popped her up onto the front of my card and added a little pink bow to her hair. I stamped my sentiment from the Speedy Recovery stamp set, used the Mini Tag Dies 3 to cut it out and tucked one end under my bear. I finished my card with a heart from the Banner Dies, some puffy stickers and a couple of white Nuvo drops.   

I'm pretty sure that this cute little bear would make anyone feel better.

Guest Designer, Marcia!

 Hello, Guest Designer Marcia here, and I've had a blast creating as a guest designer for Jaded Blossom this month. Today, I'm sharing my final card using my all time favorite stencil - the Flower Stencil Set.

This stencil set creates such beautiful backgrounds that are a breeze to create. I only use pink, blue, and yellow, overlapping the colors in sections to create orange and purple. I use green for the leaves and flower centers layer. I don't think I've spent more than a minute layering both stencils and I've loved every single inked panel.

Supplies used:

Flower Stencil Set

Gnome-alicious Birthday

Gnome-alicious Birthday Outline Dies

Doily Dies

Rectangle Dies 1

Scallop Rectangle Dies 1

Thank you, Marcia

Guest Designer, Marcia - Spring Card

 Hello, Guest Designer Marcia here, and I'm back with another Jaded Blossom card using the adorable Love Bunny layering stencil.

I used very light inks for the background and used the same color palette for the die cuts as well. I love how soft the grey looks with the white with the softer red on the mushroom and stenciled hearts.

Happy Birthday To An Enchanting Creature!

Happy Friday everyone! I'm back with a card using a couple of stencils from Jaded Blossom. Their products really make creating cute and fun cards easy! Did you see they are having a STENCIL SALE? 

Enjoy 30% off Stencils from February 2nd until March 2nd. Discount already applied!
(*2025 new stencil releases not included*)

Today, I made a birthday card combining two stencils: Mermaid Silhouette Stencil and Seaweed Stencil. First, I inked up the mermaids using Chipped Sapphire Distress Oxide Ink. Then, I added Broken China over the top to fill in around the mermaids. I have a bunch of different glitter texture paste just collecting dust so I decided to pull out a green one for the seaweed. I LOVE the sparkle against the deep blue mermaid background!

The sentiment is from the Make A Splash Gnomie Stamp Set. I used the coordinating Outline Dies to cut it out and then inked the edges with some Broken China Distress Oxide Ink. 

Remember, we have a current "USE A STENCIL" Challenge until March 1st for a chance at winning a free stamp set! You don't have to have a blog to play along.

Happy Birthday

 

Hello, crafty friends! Cynthia here sharing a birthday card using some of the previously released die and stamp sets. One of my crafty goals this year is to create more birthday cards so that I can actually send them to friends and family! The cards I make sit tucked away in my craft room but never shared. This year will be different!

Today, I created this birthday card using the following sets:

 Gnome Dies: Girl Gnome Face Add Ons, Girl Gnome Dies, Gnome Dies Birthday Add Ons, Valentine Gnome Faces, Slimline Dies, So Many Birthdays, Word Bubble Dies

I chose a black and white background for this card for a neutral base. I die cut the basic gnome shape in tan cardstock and die cut her hair with a dark brown shade of the same carsdtock pack. I grounded her on some die cut grass. I chose some bright colorful patterned papers for her party hat and balloons. stamped her face, and added some chalk for her blush.  I stamped a birthday sentiment on a word bubble and she is done!

 

 

Thanks for stopping by!

You've Been Struck...

Hi everyone and happy Wednesday!!

 Stacey from Stacey's Creative Corner here today

and I created a fun little Valentine treat bag to share with you.

I used some red cardstock and the Gable Box Die to create my box. I decided I wanted to add a bit more to the box itself so I cut some strips of patterned paper and adhered them around the box, making sure to bend the patterned paper as I adhered it. I assembled my box and set it aside while I worked on my image. I stamped the Cupid Gotcha stamp onto a piece of white cardstock and colored it in with my Copic markers. I wanted to add a little depth so I stamped the image again, fussy cut out three of the hearts and popped them up over the original image with some foam tape. I created a little double bow using the Bow Dies, added a heart to the center using the Embellishment Clusters Die and my little bag was done!

 

So cute!!

Jaded Blossom Products Used:
Cupid Gotcha
Bow Dies
Embellishment Clusters Die
