Flurry of Wishes | Tall and Skinny

Welcome - this is my third project for the Flurry of Wishes Bundle that I have featured this week.


I found myself with some extra time this afternoon as my daughter's Sports Day was shortened due to heat - so I took the opportunity to incorporate this card into the Mojo Monday challenge.


This worked perfectly as this card's dimensions are not your standard size, but wait that's not all that isn't standard; have a look at the inside of the card - surprise its a form of pop up card!




Technique:
I saw the card concept by CraftyCarolineCreates - I knew straight away that I wanted to hang a snowflake in the box window, I just had to give it a go.  It is a great design as it folds flat for posting too.

I used the same glitter technique as on my first card - I just love the heat and stick powder for attaching Dazzling Diamonds to my project, I added a gem and swirled some silver cord trim.



I scored around the edge of the card front instead of adding a layer of cardstock, it is a simple and effective alternative.

Colour Combo:
Bermuda Bay and Soft Sky on Whisper White

Flurry of Wishes Bundle:

Flurry of Wishes is a photopolymer stamp set with the coordinating Snow Flurry punch. The punch has the bonus of 2 for 1 - two snowflakes that come on one stamp so they are perfectly lined up every time!  The largest snowflake also pairs with the Flower Medallion punch.  There are also 3 sentiments

Thank you for everything Hues of Happiness

Hello crafty friends, I'm using one of my favourite layouts today with the simply gorgeous Hues of Happiness DSP . I decided to make the card using Pool Party cardstock to complement the blue flowers in a bed of purples, I think it turned out lovely. I added detail to the card front by using the Scalloped edge from the Scalloped Contours Dies , and heat embossed a sentiment in silver from the Color & Contour stamp set .  To finish I added a touch of bling with Rhinestone  Basic Jewels . Thanks for visiting today, I hope you enjoyed viewing my project. Stay tuned for more inspiration and tips this month.

Color Fusers Blog Hop May 2024

It's time for this month's Color Fusers Monthly Blog Hop! This month, our colors include Pebbled Path, Bubble Bath and Moody Mauve - perfect colours for a Mother's Day Card! I've used the new Attention Shoppers Bundle for my design - a super fun set with a mix of font and cute pictures that can be mixed and matched to be used for so many occasions. I added some InColor DSP and cut the feature circle using the online exclusive  Everyday Details Dies  - they are just amazing, I missed them being released due to being so busy at work - so take it from me, make sure you keep an eye on the Online Exclusives released each March, July and November. I decided on a "wash of colour" using Stampin' Blends then die cut with the coordinating dies. After stamping the sentiment I adhered the 3 die cut images and finished by adding a touch of bling with Silver ribbon and Basic Rhinestones.

Color Fusers Blog Hop July 2024

Hello July! and welcome to this month's Color Fusers Monthly Blog Hop! This month, we are featuring the Black, White and a colour of our choice. Well, I just happened to have Pretty in Pink on my desk from another project, and being pink, that became the colour of my choice! I started by grabbing a blending brush and applying Pretty in Pink, then run my fingers under the tap and splattered water onto the pink - the longer you leave the water the more colour it draws out from the card stock. When the card front had dried completely I stamped the butterfly and sentiment from Sketched Butterflies , adding splatters with a Stampin Write marker and the "splatter" stamp from Layering Leaves . To finish I splattered some Wink of Stella and added some rhinestones for that touch of bling!

Color Fusers Blog Hop June 2024

Hello and welcome to this month's Color Fusers Monthly Blog Hop! This month, we are featuring the 2024-2026 InColors. I decided to create a "mixer" using all the colours with a stamp from Country Birdhouse. The flowers are a mix of Petunia Pop and Pretty in Pink with a Peach Pie centre, with Shy Shamrock leaves.  I used a Blender Brush with Summer Splash to the top and bottom of the card, working from the bottom edge up fading the colour as I went, then added a touch to the top for symmetry. To finish I added a touch of bling with Iridescent Pearls. These colours just "pop", so bright and cheery!
