Heart Vine Card With Pazzles & Craft Smith Company

Hello crafty friends,
Today I am sharing a card I recently created for the Pazzles Craft Room.

Here’s a look at my completed card. The finished size is 5.5 x 5.5. I started with a black cardstock base. I then cut a white cardstock mat and then used some patterned papers from the Silver Foil Craft Smith Company.

Here is a side view of the card.


Here is the mat of the heart vine. I cut it out in plain black cardstock.


I then used some pearlized white paint and painted the mat. I left it purposely streaky for additional effect.

Here’s what the heart looked like before I put it on the card. I created the heart vine cut file exclusively for the Pazzles Craft Room.

Here’s a closer look at the banner. I stamped it with a retired stamp and then used some dimensional glue dots so that I could put the banner over the heart. I added some crystal gems to the flowers and on the ends of the banner.

Here’s one last look at my card.

#TBT Steampunk Masculine Valentine Card By Melinda Beltran Revisited

Happy Thursday crafty friends,
Today for my TBT post, I am going to share a card I made 3 years ago. Whew...that is so hard to believe when I think about it!  Where has the time gone?! So here is what I am sharing.

ORIGINAL POST LINK

I made this card for my beloved. I find at times that I struggle with making masculine cards and I have heard and read many other card makers - paper crafters do as well.

Here is a closer view. Head over to my original post There you will find several photos and plenty of details on how I put this together. I have also checked and updated the links to the various products used.

Heart Card Pazzles Craft Room

Hello crafty friends,
I am sharing a beautiful, paper roses, handmade card I created for the Pazzles Craft Room. Pretty Paper Roses, Dimensional SVG cut flowers are so much fun to make. The base is a beautiful lattice svg cut heart shape. Easel cards are always so much fun to make. So here is what I came up with.

It is one of the new files in the Pazzles craft room. I started with a Black cardstock base. I then cut out the layers in various cardstock. The patterned papers were from the DCWV Haute Pink Stack. I also used the sentiment from the stack too.

Here’s the paper roses and the card closed.

I made the pretty paper roses with the layered rose svg flower file that created these gorgeous dimensional flowers. I used my McGill Flower sculpting tools and then bent and curled the petals to give them a more realistic look. I finished off the edges with some gold smooch ink. They turned out very pretty. 

I decided to make the base of the card an easel card. this is very simply accomplished by creating a fold or crease on the top flap of the card. The you cut out another layer the same size as the base and adhere that to the top half of the creased layer. Very simple and effective. I also used some foam tape to give the layers some extra dimension. I enjoyed making this card. These flowers are the closest thing to a "green-thumb" I have!
