Hello Crafty
peeps! I’m Jacquie and today is my first post as a member of the awesome Butterfly
Reflections Ink Design Team! I’m so honored, and excited to be here and I
can’t wait to share my creations with you every week! A little
about me - I’m married to my High School sweetheart, and we live in the Austin,
Texas area with our 4 dogs. I’ve been a paper crafter for 20 plus years
and I love trying new things when it comes to card making.
So, on to my card…today
I’m sharing a card I made using a stamp set from a company that I have never
used before. I chose this adorable set from Kraftin' Kimmie stamps because it actually feels like fall here in Texas (well, it’s in the 80’s
anyway).
I stamped the sweet
little girl and basket of apples images on to some Copic friendly cardstock
using the New Altenew Permanent Black Crisp Dye Ink. I
colored the images and cut them out.
I then cut a card panel
with a Lawn Fawn stitched rectangle die and then added a shaker window using a
Die-namics Oval scalloped frame die. I cut up some acetate for my shaker window and
adhered it to the back. I used Scotch Foam Mounting Tape all the way
around it and set it aside.
I then cut two coordinating mats using the Lawn Fawn Knock On Wood 6x6 paper pad and positioned them together to make a card front. I flipped over my shaker, added all my shaker bits and then put the mats on the back of the shaker. I mounted that on to the A2 size card. After that, I added my colored images from the Kraftin’ Kimmie stamp set. I decided I needed a banner for my greeting, so I used Lawn Fawn Extra SentimentsBanner dies and stamped the Happy Fall Ya’ll Greeting on it.
Well, that is it for today. Thank you so much for stopping by - I'll be back in a few days!
Peace,
Jacquie
