More cuttlebug card designs

And another...

These three cards all used the cut and emboss cuttlebug folder. Don't you love how versatile this product is and how you can have 3 completely different cards using the same folder.

Another cuttlebug card

Don't you love this folder. I think the floral vine is just stunning. Part of the promotion that was taking place was the quilling kits for the cuttlebug, so there are a few flowers in my desings. I still have quite a few cards to load, so happy looking.

Another cuttlebug card

Once again using the cuttlebug, I cut some flowers using the quilling kits and embossed one of my mats with the blossom folder from the asian bundle. I added some pearls and some thickers for the 50.

Thanks so much for looking and have a wonderful day.

Pearlex Cards

These cards were an experiment using white gloss card, pearlex powder, modge podge, opalites, re-inkers and the new Sizzix Tim Holtz Texture Fades Damask folder and Cuttlebug Rellie Rave folder. I added ribbon, silk flowers and kindy glit - here are the results. These cards all shimmer and shine because of the pearlex powder.

I have also shown a close up of my favourite one!

And some more...

This card is a cute fold. A friend showed it to me and I thought it would make a perfect birthday card for a girlfriend of mine.

I used a sheet of Martha Stewart Paper and folded it in half. I then folded each side in to the half way point. Next, I folded the corners in and then tucked the one side into the other side to make six pockets. I used the Spellbinders Die set Large Scalloped Circles and cut the opening as well as a few tags. I cut two small circle openings on the sides using the Spellbinders Die Set Large Circles. This is to make removing the tags easier.

I cut six tags out to fit the openings and embossed these using six diffent Cuttlebug folders. I used Swirls, Textile, Paisley, Stylized Flowers, Forest Branches and Victoria. I inked these with Wild Wasabi and Rich Razzleberry ink from Stampin Up. I also inked the wee card too.

I stamped several images. I used my Hero Arts Poetic Prints, Inkadinkado Stylized Flowers, Inkadinkado Garden Delights, Inkadinkado Setiments and Stampin Up Spots and Flowers with the Stampin up Rich Razzleberry and Wild Wasabi inks. I sponged some of the images and cut them out with the corresponding sized Spellbinder Circles and Scalloped Circles.

I then stuck them all together and found a piece of organza to match and tied the book together. I used a Kaiser Craft rubon in the inside page and embellished the pages with some Derivan Kindy Glitz. I added some Kaiser Flowers to the outside and used a brad to keep the flowers and ribbon together. I glued on some die cut leaves (from the Quickutz 2x2 vine leaf die)

If you want detailed instructions for the fold of this card, add a comment and I will post step by step instructions.

More May projects....

This project is a quick birthday card using the Stampin Up Inspired By Nature stamp set. I love the grass aspect of this stamp. I used the Stampin Up markers to colour the image and then stamped it. I spritz the paper with some ink and interference powder which looks like Glimmer Mist (but is heaps cheaper). You can't see it in the photos, but the image is all shimmery. I added some highlights with the pens and some Derivan Kindy Glitz. I had a napkin that had a cosmos image that matched the images so well and I pasted it with binder medium to a transperency sheet and trimmed it to size. I adhered this to the card with some dimensional foam.
