Stitched Ovals

Rad Grad Shaker

May 28, 2019

Hi there! Today I’m sharing one of the MANY graduation cards that I’ve made lately. I wish I had more pictures to show you of the many others, but this was the basic layout and I just switched out the pattern papers and shaker colors to match the papers.

This one uses some pattern paper by Pinkfresh Studio. The sentiment is one of my favorites for graduation cards. It from the CZ Rad Grad set. I stamped the graduation cap with Apple ink.

I die cut the pattern paper using one of the the Stitched Rectangles dies as well as one of the Stitched Ovals dies for the shaker window. It’s hard to see in the photo, but it gives the card a really nice finish. I filled the shaker with more of those delicious Pure Sheen Gems by Tonic.

Happy DieCember®!

Hello & Happy DieCember®! Simon Says Stamp just released a super fun & festive DieCember® collection. Around 44 fantastic new dies. I’ve been crankin’ my Big Shot like nobody’s bizzz! My arms are gonna be so fit for the holiday, ha!SSS-Santa Cat & Santa PupI’ve got a couple of projects to share with you today featuring some of the new DieCember® goodies. This card features the Santa Cat & Santa Pup dies. I framed them using the largest Stitched Ovals dies and added a sentiment from Coolest Yulest. The plaid background paper is by Lawn Fawn. I also added some highlights to the eyes using a gel pen.
SSS-Santa Cat & Santa PupNext up, my favorite this besides a rainbow or a shaker card is a shape card. This one is perfectly pandastic!
SSS-Big Picture Book PandaI used the Big Picture Book Panda die along with the Big Picture Book Medium body. I traced the outline of the head and body todether to make a simple card base and adhered everything to the base. Believe me when I tell you I scrounged my house like a mad woman to find something adorably delicious to tuck inside his hands, but came up with nothing! So a cute little puffy gold sticker it was. I think a mini candy cane would be perfection for this, too!
SSS-Big Picture Book PandaFor the inside of the shape card I stamped a sentiment from Punny Animals. Oh, and by the way I found the perfect way to add a subtle rosy cheek to these picture book animals. I used a Detail Blending tool with Spun Sugar ink and it worked like a charm!
SSS-Punny AnimalsI’ll be back tomorrow for a fun blog hop featuring more DieCember® goodies! Check out the new release HERE! Thanks so much for stopping by!
