A Peek Into My Stamping Room

Happy Tuesday!

Hello Friends!  Hope you are having a good week so far.  Today I have a fun card to share with you.  I used a product from Crafter's Companion that you might not be familiar with unless you shop on HSN on the crafty days.  Crafter's Companion has these really cool Foil Transfer kits that I just love.  The transfers are like the scrapbook rub-ons but they actually work.  I cut out the sentiment or other picture that I want to transfer and apply this to the card.  Then I just run it thru the Gemini so that the transfer has even pressure and they just work fantastic!

Here is a card I created using the Victorian Vintage Foil Transfers with some Matt Silver foil.  I am planning on creating a tutorial on how to use these foil transfers next week.  They are really easy to use.....

The supplies I used were just on HSN so they aren't available on the Crafter's Companion website yet.  But there are other foil transfer kits that are available on the website that are just beautiful.  You can check the kits out here on the website.

A Fun Edge'able Die

Hello friends.  Crafter's Companion had another crafty day on HSN last week.  There was alot of really great products.  I wanted to share with you the Her Hobby Edge'able die that I used to make these two fun cards.  These dies are meant to be cut along the edge so they pop up to make a really unique card.

For my first card, I used the die at the top of a sheet of white cardstock.  After cutting and embossing the die, I left the cardstock in the die and used a sponge to add some ink highlights.  I really love this Afternoon Tea Edge'able die!

 

For this next card, I created a easel card from a sheet of 5 1/4 x 5 1/4" card base.  After folding the top portion in half, I used the die to cut/emboss the Afternoon Tea die.  I used the same sponge/ink technique to add highlights.

You can check out these dies on HSN (Home Shopping Network).  There were sold in a pack of three different edge'able dies - Afternoon Tea, Knitting and Sewing.  They are very unique dies and there are lots of ways to use them.  If you watch the video on HSN you will see what I mean!

I have a few more projects showing new products from Crafter's Companion for later this week!!  Thanks for stopping by today!

You Are Eggstra Special

Hello friends!  I don't know about you but I am really wishing for spring.  Yesterday we got about 3 inches of snow.  I have to say that I am completely over winter.  To help me think about spring, I created a cute card using a new-to-me stamp set from Neat & Tangled.  Here is my fun card and I hope it makes you think of spring!

To begin, stamp the chick & egg images onto white cardstock with black ink.  Color with the markers.  Fussy cut each image and set them aside.

 

 

Die cut the patterned paper using the largest scalloped rectangle in the Mixed Edge Rectangle die set.  Die cut the pink and white cardstock using the dies from the Hello ATC Die.  Stamp the sentiment onto the white die cut using the Stamp Platform.

 

 Assemble the card using 3d foam tape to give some dimension.  Here is the finished card again.

I have more projects to share with you this week.  I have a few projects I created using Crafter's Companion new products!  Can't wait to share with you!
