Hi folks, 

I am back with another fun TE release! If you have been eyeing some freebies or products from events like Stamp Joy, now is your chance to grab them!! 

I don’t really garden much but I consider playing and creating paper flowers from dies my type of gardening! I am absolutely in love with the new Garden Variety dies. I started off by die cutting different pieces of the set using leftover scrap paper. This is the perfect project to get rid of those! I used shades like Pineapple, Plum Punch, Lollipop, Granny Smith, Cilantro, Pumpkin Pie and Lavender Glaze. I then added details to the flowers using copics and a white gel pen. Later, I added stems to each of the flowers using the Garden Variety bouquet builder die.

Arrange all the flowers around a heat embossed sentiment from Big Hello on Pablano Pepper and you are done!! I love how this one turned out!!


Supply List:

 

That’s it! I hope you liked this project :)

Happy Crafting,
Kavya

Hi folks, 

I am back on the blog with another fun project for TE's season of crafting! We have 9 days of daily deals coming your way starting TODAY! This is a great time to check thing off of your holiday shopping list for crafty friends and family or maybe check a few things off of your own crafty wish list! Each day the new daily deal starts at 9AM Central Time and goes until 8:59AM Central Time the next day. Offers are valid while supplies last and there are no rainchecks. 

Today's deal is all about clear stamps! I used a bunch of stamps that are on sale currently to create a fun rainbow birthday card. I started off by ink blending by warm night sky using Blue Raspberry, Cookie Monster and Mint Julep inks. I then heat embossed the starry background using Starfall background stamp (not on sale today). I stamped and colored images from Be U-nicorn and Big Rainbow stamps and adhered them to the base. Matted it on top of some Toffee cardstock and added a heat embossed stamp from Happy Hooray (not on sale) to finish off my card! 


Supply List:




Thanks,
Kavya

Hi folks, 

I am back on the blog with another fun project for TE's season of crafting! We have 9 days of daily deals coming your way starting TODAY! This is a great time to check thing off of your holiday shopping list for crafty friends and family or maybe check a few things off of your own crafty wish list! Each day the new daily deal starts at 9AM Central Time and goes until 8:59AM Central Time the next day. Offers are valid while supplies last and there are no rainchecks. 

Today's deal is all about Standalone dies! I used a bunch of dies that are on sale currently to create a fun NYC themed card. I was in NYC last year for thanksgiving and I am definitely missing it now. Let's get started...



I first started off by using Mushroom and Sea Salt cardstock for the road and sky. I ink blending the Sea Salt cardstock with Oyster ink and used Oreo for the Mushroom cardstock. Then, I die cut the Downtown Border using Blue raspberry cardstock and also used Pineapple for the underlay. to make it more realistic, I ink blended the Downtown Border using matching dye ink. For the Statue of Liberty, I used Spearmint and added some details using a matching Copic marker and white gel pen. To finish off my card, I added a sentiment using Cap It Off - Alpha and a NYC taxi using a modified stamped image from Gus and Gertie - Ride On.

I hope you liked this project and the deal of the day :)

Happy Crafting,
Kavya

I like finding ways to stretch my supplies so I thought I would create two projects showing you how you can combine products that you might already have to create fun cards for all occasions. My first card is a Christmas card that I made using the background stamp. I ink blending the edges of Cherry Pop cardstock using Raspberry Sorbet dye ink and heat embossed the background using gold embossing powder. Then, I diecut the Festive Fir using Peapod cardstock and colored on top using copic pens to achieve a darker shade. Then, I adhered some gold cardstock underneath and fuzzy cut the tree as shown below. Added a heat embossed sentiment and I was done!


Supply List:




My next card is a monochromatic card - something that I haven't created in a really long time! I ink blended the edges of Blue Raspberry cardstock using Blueberry dye ink and stamped the Filigree background using the same ink. Then, I heat embossed the In the Meadow background stamp using cookie monster embossing powder. Added a few heat embossed sentiments and I was done!

Hi folks, 

I am back on the blog with another fun TE release that is filled with amazing holiday goodies. I just love how most of the products from this release pair well together :)

For my Christmas card today, I started off with Lavendar cardstock and inkblended the top half with Eggplant and Plum Punch dye inks. Then, I splattered paint like always. I then diecut a bunch of snow globe elements using Snow Globe Builder, Tiny Town and a Stitched Circle die. Added some penguins from Dancing through the Snow and a sentiment from Merriest Christmas and I was done!

I hope this project inspires you!

Happy Crafting,

I first started off my card by ink blending spearmint cardstock with spearmint dye ink and adding some white paint splatters (tutorial on this technique coming soon!). Then, I stamped and colored a bunch of images from Bun-derful Birthday and adhered them to the card base. I finished off my card by adding a heat embossed sentiment from Happy Hooray on Guava cardstock and diecut Bold Birthday using Spearmint (made it darker using a copic marker) and Buttercream cardstock!
