Graphic 45 Fashionista tag card

 

Using Retired Graphic 45 Fastionista collection and focused to use another tag, I started by die cutting the base with Avery Elle's Finished Frames die to add slash marks on the center piece and add dimension. Added a black cardstock back to it. The tag was from the tag sheet. Punched a hole with my We R Memory Keepers Crop-A-Dile and added seam binding that I bought at a flea market. The 3 buttons are from Rusty Pickle with May Arts Natural burlap threaded through them and glued on. Just another of my cards for the #worldcardmakingday2026

Vintage Christmas Card Using Simon Says Stamp Festive Snowman

 Using the Simon Says Stamp Festive Snowman from a year or two ago, I die cut him and glued the pieces together. I started with two pattern papers from Echo Park 6x6 pad, and then added strung buttons and an old October Afternoon journal card about snowmen. The Retired Merry Christmas was from Creek Bank Creations. Three Rusty Pickle red buttons tied with May Arts burlap string and added for fun too!

Altenew October Inspiration Challenge

  Altenew Inspiration for October 2026

For this October Inspiration Card I used Bamboo Roses Stamps and though I die cut them, I preferred that the flowers be less white so ended up fussy cutting them all out! I had colored them with alcohol markers and then used a black brush marker to go around all of the edges of the fussy cut pieces. The frame is Altenew Fine Frames die cut with gold foil. The base is made from laying down blended green ink first then using Mayan Gold Shimmer Relief Paste with the Vintage Motifs stencil and allowing to dry. The "Lovely" sentiment was from the Altenew Friend stamp set

Graphic 45 Joy to the World tag card

 Using Graphic 45 Joy to the World collection. Heavenly Choir is the background base and the stickers were made into tags. I added one sticker to the red foil and fussy cut around the outside, punched holes with my Crop-A-Dile and added Offray gold ribbon. The sequins were added and I had a "Merry Christmas" sequin I glued to the angel as if she is holding it for my sentiment. Hope you are enjoying all of my cards for the #worldcardmakingday2026 There are more to come.

Altenew October Inspiration Card

Altenew October Inspiration Challenge

I just LOVE Altenew and these are fun days to play along with their Inspiration Challenge this month of cooler weather. This card is using many products which if not stated are all Altenew. I die cut the Enchanted Mirror die for the frame of the card in cream cardstock and then blended the edges with brown. The flowers were die cut out of purple cardstock and then blended with the Enchanted Garden Fresh dye ink to make them have depth. The leaves were from 2 different greens and then both were blended with Emerald ink. The stamin had Amber Blaze added to them as well to show the orange color more vibrantly. The flower and leaves are the Plum Blossoms set with 4 flowers and I only used the 2 smaller leaves due the size of the frame. The card base was stenciled using the Paper Echoes stencil with Maya Gold Shimmer Relief paste and left to dry. Then I used the Organic Linen 3D Embossing folder and because it is 6 inches and the card base was 7", I did it twice through separately. The gold glitter washi tape from Little B was added to cover to that area of difference. After each flower, leaf and frame as well as card had blended shading, I put the elements together. I added dimension to the leaves and flowers before the card was put together and then splattered with Gansai Tambi red gold paint.
