Funky Foliage Treat Box

Ok, how adorable are these dies from the Tim Holtz Funky Foliage Die set??? I mean those mushrooms and acorns are just too cute for words even!!

I started with a Trinket Treat Box I made using Eileen Hull’s Trinket Box Die and designer papers from Recollections. I then die cut the Funky Foilage from Bazzil Cardstock in several fall colors that had Stick It Adhesive Sheets added on the back. The Stick It is great if you apply it to the back of your cardstock before running it thru your die cutting machine…this makes putting the foilage pieces together so much easier as there’s now adhesive on the back of all your die pieces. :o)

I used Vintage Photo Distress Oxide to ink the edges of the Foliage and treat box.

And what’s a treat box without some treats??? hehehehe

I sure hope you enjoyed my little funky foliage treat box today.

Happy Craftin’!

Floral Aviary Tag

How TWEET is this Floral Aviary Set from Flora and Fauna???

I just love the whimsical little images in this set and loved coloring them even more!

I created my tag using a Luggage Tag die from my stash but any  tag die will do like the Concord and 9th Sprinkles tag. I die cut it from Bristol Smooth cardstock and used fossilized Amber, Spiced Marmalade and Worn Lipstick Distress Oxides with a blending tool to create my background.

I colored the image with Copics and Spectrum Noir markers and then fussy cut them out. I created the cage using  a Spellbinders Bird Cage Die, but Penny Black has some adorable ones here too. I die cut the bird cage from white cardstock three times and adhered them together, and then embossed the top layer with Clear Embossing poweder twice…doesn’t it look like a real shiny metal bird cage? lol

I adhered the flowers and birds with the cage onto my tag using glue and foam tape. I then stamped the sentiment using Versafine Black Onyx Ink. Some white gel pen highlights finished off my little tag.

Thank you for stopping by today and happy Craftin’!

You HOG my Heart!

Good morning, Amy here with a little HOG and some watercoloring!

I mean how sweet is this HOG HEAVEN set by MFT??? I do love me some piggies! ;o)

I started by stamping the Little Heart Piggie/Hog with Tattered Rose Distress Ink onto Canson Watercolor paper. I then used the same color, in Tattered Rose, to watercolor the Piggie. I also used Frayed Burlap for his inner ear, nose and eyes and Tombow Hot Pink 743 for the heart. I then fussy cut him out.

I then created my base card with Cardstock from Bazzil and used  Sizzix Dotted Rectangles, but any decorative rectangle die will do, like Lawn Fawn’s Stitched Bar Rectangles. I then used a brick design paper from my stash to create my little background for the Piggie. I splattered some Hickory Smoke Distress Stain to create some texture to the white. Added some washi tape and sequins from my stash and to finish off the card, I mounted the piggie with 3D foam tape and added Nuvo Crystal Glaze to the heart. Love the dimension this glaze adds. ;o)

And I like to finish the inside of my cards with a similar design as the front:

And there we have it a sweet and simple card with some watercoloring and minimal supplies.

~Happy Craftin’!~
