Love Under the Sea

Hi Artzy friends -

For my pre Valentine's Day card, I thought I'd use some new Dare 2B Artzy products, along with some older products, to create a mini slim love themed card. I think this card will be going to my husband, either for Valentine's Day, or our anniversary.

I started by creating my card base and cutting the two panels for my card front with the Slim Mini Wavy Layers dies. My wavy edged panel, cut out of paper from the Make Waves collection, seemed perfect to me for an under the sea card.

I stamped, colored, and diecut two of the jellyfish from the new Jellyfish stamps and die sets, and popped them up on either side of my die cut "love you" cut with the Love You Double Layered Word die.

The sentiment inside my card is from the Seahorses stamp set, another new set in the Make Waves collection of products. I cut rectangular panels with the Rectangle Framelits dies.

To complete my project I created an envelope to coordinate with my card out of papers from the Make Waves collection, using the Slim Mini Envelope dies.

I love how fun and easy it is to create a coordinating envelope for my mini slimline cards!

I hope you have a chance to check out all of the amazing new products from Dare 2B Artzy - there is so much to choose from! 

Thanks for visiting and have a great day!

Hippo Birdie Mini Slimline

Hi Crafty friends-

Today I want to share my first project as a Kat Scrappiness Influencer.  Kat Scrappiness is an online paper crafting shop that carries supplies from many different brands, as well as their own. The Kat Scrappiness exclusive brand is best known for a great selection of dies, geared towards making card of several sizes, as well as an amazing selection of embellishments for your shaker and other cards. Of course you can also find stamps, paper, and other cardmaking supplies.

From time to time I will be sharing projects I create featuring Kat Scrappiness branded products.

This card is actually remade from an older birthday card I had in my stash with some cute Lawn Fawn images. I cut a blue frame with the largest of the new Reversed Scallop Mini Slimline dies, and I trimmed my card panel down to fit behind it and mounted it on a mini slimline size card base. 

I really enjoy making mini slimline size cards and Kat Scrappiness has two die sets to create mini slimline envelopes. I used the Snail Mail Envelope dies to create an envelope to fit my card out of double sided patterned paper. 

The die set comes with 3 round seal dies, snail mail word dies, a banner die, and a double stitched inside frame die which I used on the front of my envelope as a place to write the address of my recipient.
