Fall Card - die cut felt leaves using dies you already have

Hello. I was inspired by @Nichol Spohr LLC to use dies to cut out felt leaves for this handmade Fall card. Guess what? It was fun and easy and the texture from the felt is a wonderful addition to a card; it adds both dimension and interest. I hope you will be inspired to give this technique a try! #sizzix #cardmaking #feltdiy It would be fantastic if you would subscribe and leave me a comment (see subscription box directly above this week's Blog post).

Fancy Scrolled Butterfly - an intricate die, marbled paper and WOW!

I can't get enough of this intricate butterfly die and how a plain, embossed mat and some marbled paper can transform into a beautiful, inlaid looking card. I'm so happy you joined me today to see how this card was made. I found this butterfly die at a Great American Scrapbooking Convention (GASC). It is an amazing die and cuts beautifully. #sizzix #embossing #papercraft It would be fantastic if you would subscribe and leave me a comment (see subscription box directly above

Autumn Blessings - Sizzix 3D Impresslits Oak Leaf & Liquid Watercolors

Oh boy! I'm trying some liquid watercolors for the first time and spoiler alert, it's addicting! So, I found the Color Splash! liquid watercolors on Amazon and they are amazing. I bought the basic set of six (red, orange, yellow, green, blue & purple) and the colors are very true to basic color values. I used the liquid watercolors to create several backgrounds for my Fall Leaves. I used the #sizzix 3D Impresslits "Oak Leaf" embossing folder and die for my detailed leaf d

Crafter's block (Part I) - overcoming creative obstacles (using 3D Studded Leather embossing folder)

Hello and welcome! Ever have one of those card making days where you run into crafter's block? Well, I have and sometimes it's hard to get over the hump. I have the beautiful Studded Leather embossing folder and I made two mats that just sat on my desk for weeks. I finally forced myself to overcome my creative block and I am happy with the results, but it did take me awhile to figure out what to do with the embossed mats. Tune in next week to see the second card made usi

Faith card - Using the Sizzix Winged 3D cut and emboss folder

This is my take on using the amazingly detailed "Winged" 3D Impresslits cut & emboss folder.

Hello everyone! Welcome to this week's video. Today I will use a new metal die from Amazon.com to make an awesome A2 card.

You can use one or both die cuts on your card. The "Cross Flowers Lace Love" die is medium weight and can cut regular paper and cardstock. The die cuts are stunning in their simplicity. Let's get
