More Gerbera Daisies! Using FBstamps Clear Stamps

Happy Thursday, Crafty Friends... It's fall and can you believe Thanksgiving is just in one week?!

Thanksgiving is the time of year to be thankful for all they have. For me, I am very thankful for family and friends! I appreciate each and everyone one of them. And though I try to show them I care everyday, sometimes life just get's in the way. I guess that's what I get for "adulting"... mommy & wifey duties, house chores, design team obligations... they all pile up! 

I'm making an active effort to let my loved ones know I appreciate & love them. 

Today is my first Guest DT post for FB stamps and I made this fall themed I love you card.

Supplies Used

I started by stamping my images in black ink onto mixed media paper. then, I colored the flowers with my Zig Markers in Yellow, Mustard, Beige,Dark Oatmeal, &  Brown and went over the centers with a clear glitter pen. I also colored the leaves in Mild Green, Olive green, & Deep Green. 

I fussy cut the flowers all the images out but if you are not great at fussy cutting or just want to save time FB Stamps have the cut files for all their stamps and the coordinating digi dies are FREE!!

I stamped doubles of the bigger blooms and cut off the outer row of petals. then layered it onto the bigger bloom with foam dots.

I wanted my flowers to be an arrangement and not just floating on the card... so, I used Eileen Hull's Tea Cup Die for the cup and the tag. I cut them from Chipboard then adhered my patterned paper onto them with my Creative Station Lite.

I shaded the edges with  abit of chalk in colors that were at least 2 shades darker than the paper.

 The little "I love You" stamp comes included with the Gerbera Daisies set.

In the picture above it looked cute it felt it was missing something...

So, I added some texture to the background with a bit of modeling paste and a stencil.

And cut out a band for my teacup and embossed it and added enamel glitter dots.

I traced around the cup and tags with an extra fine black pen and then added highlights with a white gel pen. I also went over the embossed area with the same black pan as well. 

Then finally, I finished it off with a button topped multi-looped twine bow.

Here is a close up of all the dimension in this card...

I am enjoying this stamp set very much and I'm looking forward to making more with it!!

I hope you all enjoyed today's card!!

Until next time...

HAPPY CRAFTING!!

Autumn Shaker Box

Hello again! Becki from the Happy Card Factory here and back with an adorable little Fall shaker box. I just love how it turned out. Such festive boxes for candy favors at your next holiday party. 

The Holly Days collection for Christmas by Fleurette Bloom Designs has some of the cutest gift giving elements, but I wanted to make an Autumn themed shaker box. Using the Holly and Bow box, I broke the holly out of the front panel and replaced it with one of the leaves from the Harvest Happenings- Leaf card SVG. See how having multiple kits in your crafting arsenal can help you make any design your heart desires? :)

A little glitter here with a few sequins there and you won't be able to stop shaking this little guy. Super easy and such a beautiful touch to gift giving! If you want a some more information regarding how I put this shaker box together, head over to HCF for details.

Thanks for stopping by and checking out the Design Team's projects week after week. We appreciate it. Please leave a comment to let us know how we are doing or any kits/designs your would like to see featured. Then head over to the store to pick up the amazing SVG files from Fleurette. Your electronic cutting machine will thank you. ;)

The new "Harvest Happenings"  3D SVG Kit,  A fun fall themed kit, giving you everything you need to create beautiful memories, party decor, place cards, invitations, gift boxes and party favors. 

The "Leaf Shape Card" is easy to make and so pretty. You could even use the leaves for other projects, like making a fall wreath!  I used a  stamp from the Craftin Desert Divas collection "Simply Said"  this set always seems to have just the right phrase :)

 The "Pumpkin Trio" is a series of 3 different boxes, I used a wood grain embossing folder to give them a crafted wood charm. Use them as gift boxes or a centerpiece. These would also be great gift boxes for birthdays or other occasions, just add a bow or flower to the top instead of the leaves.

The "Leaf Place Setting" is elegant, charming and gives just the right touch to your table. Your guest will enjoy the feeling of bringing the outdoors in. Use them with the easel or without if you would like to lay them flat.
