Using up your scraps with a CUPPA LOVE

Good morning crafty friends! Amy here with my last post for Scrap N’ Stamp. It’s been a pleasure creating with these fun products and alongside some AMAZING ladies!

Today I have a little fun tutorial to use up your scraps along with Spellbinder’s CUPPA LOVE die set.

Here’s the fun and BRIGHT card I made using up a few pieces of scrap along with some adhesive.

I started by cutting 1/4′”strips out of my collection of scrap cardstock pieces. I then applied Be Creative Adhesive sheet to the back of a piece of copy paper cut to 4.25″x 5.5″. I  then peeled of the release paper and started lining up my strips…really quick and easy! ;o) I started with the colors of the rainbow but lost a bit  of the ROY G BIV order when I cut it down for my panel. BUT I still think it’s fun and pretty! lol

I applied Candied Apple Distress Oxide to Bristol Smooth paper,  straight from the pad, no blending tool and used that to die cut the cup from CUPPA LOVE. I  then used Vintage Photo Distress Oxide applied to Bristol Smooth to die cut the Coffee portion from the die set  as well. I adhered it all together and added some leaves and a little heart from the same set to complete my mug. Some little white gel pen highlights and some Nuvo Crystal Glaze applied to the coffee and heart finished it off…doesn’t it look good enough to drink???

A sentiment from Art Impressions Latte Love Set stamped with Black Onyx Versafine Ink die cut with MFT-  Fishtails completed my sentiment. I adhered the panel to black cardstock and applied it to my base card with fun foam. A natural hemp ribbon finished off my card.

So  there we have it, a fun and relatively easy way to use up some scraps to get a BRIGHT background for your cards.

I sure hope you’ve enjoyed this tutorial and don’t forget to check out the LOVE IS IN THE AIR Challenge over on or FB page here.

Happy Craftin’!

NEW Core’dinations Color Core Cardstock

We are so excited about this cardstock! It’s an awesome new product that is going to add so much more to your paper crafting projects! So…what’s so special about core‘dinations ColorCore cardstock? A lot! This is definitely not your ordinary cardstock. Here’s why..

Click on the pictures and you will see this cardstock go from plain to embossed to WOW!!

When you sand or tear this cardstock the beautiful core color just pops right out. And…it’s a coordinating shade of the cardstock, not white! So now when you emboss and sand a die cut or tear the edges on a photo mat the color that shows automatically matches because it’s from the same color family. C

You don’t have to guess what color is inside either. Every sheet of acid/lignin free has a tab on the bottom that shows the color that’s hidden inside.

And, it gets even better! This is a premium, high end, canvas textured cardstock (back is smooth) that is heavy enough (80 lb) to use as your card base or full scrapbook page and hold up to lots of embellishment. It’s got a beautiful sheen to it as well that adds a little more depth to the colors.

It’s a fabulous cardstock for die cutting, embossing and distressing. When we took it out for a test run we couldn’t believe how easy it was to work with and how much more it added to our projects. No matter how you use it, as is or sanded & distressed this is a FANTASTIC cardstock.

We used it with Spellbinders dies, Cuttlebug embossing folders, Sizzix Texturz and a variety of Sizzix dies just to see what it could do and it was fabulous to work with. We will be posting more samples in the Gallery section soon so check back for new ideas.

It’s available in 160 sumptuous colors in Super Assortments or Color Families that make coordinating your next project a snap.

Here are some samples of what you can do with it…
