Mini Warren

This was made with a Back to Basics DL blank from Craftwork Cards.  The paper isn't quite long enough to fit across the card so I cut it into two pieces and stuck them on lining one piece up with the left hand edge and one with the right hand edge so there was a gap in the middle.  This gap was hidden by putting the Mini Elegant Rectangle over it.

Christmas Warren

A quick card using Very Merry products and a small Christmas Warren.

Christmas Warren

I received the new kit of the month from Craftwork Cards yesterday - this month the theme is Christmas Warren and he has some new friends who feature on the products.

For this card I attached three of the Warren mini die cut images to mini elegant squares.  The two outside squares are mounted on foam pads but I used double sided tape on the centre on - this added dimension to the card.  The Candi is called Very Merry and has gold foiled spots on it.

Gold Confetti

I used a 12cm square white card blank from Craftwork Cards as the base card and covered the front with some latte gold foiled Confetti paper.  I then stuck a marshmallow Mini Elegant Square to the centre of the card using double sided tape and added a Heartful Flower to the centre of it using foam pads.  The next step was to attach an In Circle Message to marshmallow punched circle and then attach them to the Heartfelt Flower (double sided tape).

Finally I added the two Retro Daisies using foam pads, put Candi in the centre of them and added Glossy Accents to the Candi.

Confetti and Crystals

This was made using a Craftwork Cards Elegant Rectangle as the base card.  First of all I added the three strips of paper using double sided tape before sticking the marshmallow paper mounted on ice cream paper to the Mini Elegant Rectangle.  I then stuck this to the card using 1mm foam pads. 

Next I punched a circle from marshmallow card, stuck the In Circle Message to the centre and then stuck both on the Heartfelt Flower.  I used 2mm foam pads to mount this on the card apart from in the area where the Heartfelt Flower overlaps the Mini Elegant square where I used 1mm pads - this meant that the whole of the Heartfelt flower was raised by 2mm - if I had used 2mm pads on the overlap the Heartfelt flower wouldn't be level.

I didn't have any card to match the In Circle Message so punched the flowers from the edges of the In Circle Message sheet - fortunately the flower is only small.  I used a glue pen to stick the 3 flowers onto the Mini Elegant square and then put self-adhesive crystals in the centres.

Confetti for a change ...

This was made using a DL card blank.  I used double sided tape to fasten the papers onto the card and also used double sided tape to stick grosgrain ribbon across the join.

I then stuck a Heartfelt Flower to a Mini Elegant Square using double sided tape before adding two Petal Point Flowers with foam pads and Card Candy to the corners of the square and centre of the flower.  Finally I stuck an In Circle Message to a punched scallop circle and used foam pads to stick it to the bottom right hand corner.

Mint Chocolate

Another card using Elegant Rectangles. I stuck a strip of Mint Yummy Scrummy paper across the centre of the card and added Card Candy over the spots on the top and bottom edges. I then mounted a Mini Elegant Square using foam pads and added Card Candy with an In Circle Message. To finish off I used two chocolate daisies with Card Candy in the centres.

Everything I used is from Craftwork Cards.

Happy Birthday

This is an 8 by 8 card blank covered with a piece of Mint Yummy Scrummy paper. I cut an Elegant Rectangle into two and stuck the larger piece to the top right of the card before adding a piece of Dark Chocolate Yummy Scrummy paper and three mint die cut daisies with dark brown Card Candy in the centres. I then added a strip of Dark Chocolate Yummy Scrummy paper across the bottom of the card. I then stuck the remaining piece of the Elegant Square to the bottom left of the card, followed by a mint Mini Elegant Square and finished off with a Craftwork Cards In Circle message mounted on a punched scalloped circle in the same card as the Elegant Rectangle.

Deepest Sympathy

This card is for a friend who has just sadly lost her father in law. I used a grey Elegant Rectangle on a white 8 by 8 card blank and then stamped the images on 3 matching Mini Elegant Squares which were mounted onto the card with foam pads. The oval sentiment was stuck to a scalloped oval and this was also mounted on the card with foam pads. The scan doesn't show the card very well.

Birthday Boy

This is another card made using the Romance Papers and and Elegant Rectangle by Craftwork Cards. I used a black fineliner pen for the faux stitching and added a Mini Elegant Square with die cut numbers. The sentiment is from Craftwork Cards and is mounted on a scalloped oval punched with a Stampin' Up punch. To finish off I added Card Candy down the edge.

I actually made this for a friend whose birthday is today. Happy Birthday Gary, hope you have a lovely day and don't work too hard xxx
