Snowdrops and Designer Papers

 Hello My Crafty Blog Friends and Visitors

How is your week going? We had a walk yesterday and we discovered a woodland walk that is not far from where we live. When our daughter and son-in-law come to visit with their dog we will be able to take them there. 

My friend asked me to make a birthday card for one of our mutual friends. When I had finished I had some nice bits of card and Designer papers that I just had to use. Here is the result.

This Designer paper is from the Rainbow River 12" x 12" paper pad from Claritystamp. 

This the Art Nouveau Snowdrops Aperture Freshcut die. I cut the die from a piece of black card that I put onto some Designer paper that had been covered with a double sided sticky sheet. I cut the die again in white and green and put the pieces I needed into place. The residual stickiness was covered with a transparent glitter. 

This will be another card that will be going to the Hampshire Open Studios event at the end of August. I have found that cards without sentiments do well at this event. 

Enjoy the rest of the week

Happy Crafting

Snowdrop Congratulations Card

 Hello My Crafty Blog Friends and Visitors

How has your weekend been. We have managed to go for some nice walks. At the beginning of lockdown we started doing virtual Murder Mysteries. There is a team of actors and we get emails and clues. There are YouTube films to watch and towards the end there is a Zoom meeting interrogation. We completed the latest one this weekend. We have another booked for the period of time between Christmas and New Year. It is just something a bit different to do. 

Just recently our daughter received a promotion. I wanted to make her a card to celebrate. 

I used Designer papers from Clarity Stamp. 

This the Fresh Cut Die Art Nouveau Snowdrop Aperture die. I cut it from Designer paper which I stuck to a paler Designer Paper with a double sided sticky sheet. I was then able to paper piece the die cut. I used Micro Beads to cover the remaining sticky. 

I used  one of the stickers from the Word Sticker Collection. There was left over sticky sheet and designer paper to mount the sentiment. 

I do like this die. I think is is out of stock at the moment. There are others in the same series. I might just treat myself to another one. 

Have a good week. 

Happy Crafting
