DCWV Citrus Stack And Cameo Card

Hello crafty friends,

It’s another terrific Tuesday and that means its my turn to share for my Scrapyland DT. Today I created a colorful and fun card using the DCWV Citrus Stack Paper Collection and the Wildflower Digital Design Portfolio for the Cameo Silhouette.

Here’s what I came up with.

Here is my finished card. I used the wonderful Die Cuts With A View DCWV Citrus Stack. All of the patterned papers as well as the sentiment came from that stack. I used some Bazzill pink cardstock for the roses. I used the Wildflower Digital Design Portfolio to create the flowers.

Here is the side view of the flowers.

I started by laying out the flower onto my virtual mat in my Cameo Studio software. I made them in graduated sizes for the layers.

After cutting all the flowers, I inked them with some pink pigment ink. I did ink both sides of the die cuts.

Next I spritzed some water on my craft mat

I then laid my flower die cut on the water on both sides. This is just to get the die cut moist and not too wet. The whole purpose is to be able to bend the petals without them getting hard creases in them.

I folded each petal up and also pinched them.

I did this for each petal.

Once I folded each petal, I folded them up and together. I closed them up tightly and let them dry.

Once the layers were dried I simply glued each layer and then staggered them as I layered them.

Here is one last look at the flowers. I finished off the cards by adding some leaves and a cute little bow.

Easy Thank You Card From Pazzles Craft Room

Hello crafty friends,

Today it is my turn to share for the Pazzles Design Team. I am sharing a super quick and easy Thank You card featuring files from the Pazzles craft room.  I wanted to create a card that could possibly would work for a "masculine" recipient. Here is what I came up with.

My finished card size is 5x6.5. My base was from regular kraft cardstock.  It came together very quickly. I started by cutting a white mat an 1/8” down and then another mat from the DCWV White Ginger Paper Stack an 1/8 smaller. I then used the Chevron Paper Lace file from the library and sized it to 4.5 x 6. I cut it from regular blue cardstock. I then used the downy feather file and cut two of them from another piece of patterned paper from the same White Ginger stack. For my final cut, I used one of the rosette files and cut out two rosette strips at 1.5 by 10.5 inches. The patterned paper was once again from the same stack.  I then used my pen tool and a green fine tip sharpie to draw the thank you sentiment and then cut that out. I cut some brown patterned paper and then a thin strip of the blue paper edged by the olive ric rac ribbon. I lightly edged the chevron paper lace with some blue ink. This card came together very easily with the help of a few great files from the craft room, my pen tool and a fun paper stack!

Chevron Paper Lace	Downy Feather	Rosettes And Swags

Bloom And Grow Scrapbook Page Kit Layout

Hello crafty friends, 

Today I am sharing a layout I created for my Scrapyland DT. It is no secret that many in the United States have been going through an Arctic Blast. While I was tempted to do a layout showcasing the cold, I really wanted to do something colorful and cheerful.

Here is a view of my layout. I used patterned paper from the Die Cuts With A View Citrus Stack. All of the cuts with the exception of the bear came from the Wildflower Digital Design Portfolio CD for your Silhouette Cameo.

Here is a closer look at the little bear. Last week I shared how I created this bear from my silhouette cameo using ovals as well as the edit points tool and a shape from the Block Party Design Portfolio CD. You can check that post out HERE.

Here is a closer look at the bloom title. Just one of the many pre-made titles on the CD.

Here is a closer look at some of the pretty flowers. Again all of the shapes are from the Wildflower CD.

Lastly, here is a closer look at the “Grow” title. I created the banners by simply using a square  shape in my Cameo software and then pulling out one of the sides in half.

I used the following products to complete this project

Silhouette Cameo	Wildflower Design Portfolio	DCWV Citrus Stack
Pebbles Basic Chalks	Pebbles Pastel Chalks	Pebbles Earth Tone Chalks
Enchantment Ink Pad Set	Whimsy Ink Pad Set	Adventure Ink Pad Set
Basic Ink Pad Set	Tombow Adhesive Runner	Foam Adhesive Tape
Chalk Marker	Memory Glue Dots	Chisel Tip Glue Pen

 Well, I hope you are inspired to start working on those celebration memories. I did make these this layout into a page kit that can be purchased at page-kits.com. I only made a limited quantity of each, so be sure to get them while you can.
