Avery Elle- Winter 2021 Blog Hop



Hello friends!

Today we're celebrating Avery Elle's Winter 2021 New Release with a Blog Hop full of awesome inspiration and ideas using all the newest goodies! 

I am working with the More Critter Circle Tags stamp set today and decided to make a Valentine's card using the Toucan tag and an older Elle-ments set with a lovey twist. 


I stamped the tag with Versmark ink and heat embossed the image with gold embossing powder. I colored the toucan in pinks and purples and added a few details with a white gel pen. 


I pulled out the Leafy Frames Elle-ments dies and die cut some ombre and plaid patterned paper with the large rectangle frame. I placed the tag and layered frames onto an A-2 notecard and figured out a spot for the Happy Valentine's Day sentiment. 

As a finishing touch, I die cut and adhered some of the hearts from the Easy Layers 1 Elle-ments set.

Avery Elle Fall 2021 Release and Blog Hop!

 


Hello friends! 

I am so excited that the Avery Elle Fall 2021 Release has arrived. With this latest release you'll find loads of amazing stamps and dies for your fall and holiday crafting. 

I have a card to share with you today featuring the new Merry Elle-ments die. I love the playful and mod styling of this festive word die. I die cut the word from several shades of card stock, snipped apart the letters and glued them to a plain white Merry die cut that acted as a base for all the colorful letters. 


I repeated the process two more times and adhered the Merry words to a white card stock panel cut with the stitched rectangle from the Easy Layers 1 Elle-ments die


I added a few stars (also from the Easy Layers Elle-ments set) and adhered the finished panel to an A2 notecard that I covered with some patterned paper from The Holiday Collection paper pad

We have an amazing blog hop full of inspiration today and we are so glad that you are here.

Island Time {Avery Elle}

Hello friends, 

Could you use a little Island Time? After the past year, I know I could! I was able to plan a little island escape via a card using the adorable Island Time stamp set. Island Time has all the elements you need to create a darling, tropical scene.


I stamped all my images, colored them with Copic Markers and die cut the stamped images using the coordinating Island Time Elle-ments dies. 


Next, I die cut a panel of white card stock with the large stitched rectangle from the Easy Layers Elle-ments dies. I blended a circle of yellow ink using Distress Oxides in Squeezed Lemonade and Mustard Seed. I adhered the stamped images and stamped the sentiment onto the panel with Versafine ink. As a finishing touch, I adhered a few flat clear sequins.

Slimline Sweet Day {Avery Elle}

Hello friends, 

Popping in today with a card featuring the absolutely adorable Sweet Day stamp set and the new Slimline Borders Elle-ments dies from Avery Elle. 


I stamped the images from the Sweet Day stamp set and colored them with Copic Markers. I die cut the images with the coordinating dies and set them aside while I built the slimline background. 


First, I cut a panel of watercolor card stock to 3.5" x 8.5 inches. I blended about one-third of the way down the panel with Distress Oxide ink in Tumbled Glass. I spattered the panel with water and white ink. Next, I cut the wavy border and grassy border from a piece of Neenah Solar White card stock and blended them with Black Soot to create pavement and Mowed Lawn and Twisted Citron to create grass. I adhered the borders to the panel of watercolor card stock. 

I adhered the stamp images to the panel, stamped the sentiment and adhered the completed panel to a slimline card base.

Snappy Birthday Wishes {Avery Elle}

 Hello friends, 

I have  a card on the Avery Elle blog this week featuring the new Oh Snap stamp set, Hooray Elle-ments die and Easy Layers 1 Elle-ments die. 

I just adore this snappy crocodile. He's so festive and we have lots of celebrations planned for this summer. To make the card, I die cut a panel of Neenah Solar White card stock with the large stitched die from the Easy Layers 1 Elle-ments set. Next, I blended the die cut panel with two shades of Distress Oxide inks- Worn Lipstick and Dried Marigold. I spattered the panel with white ink and set it aside to dry. 


I stamped the crocodile with black ink, colored him with Copic Markers, and die cut the image using the coordinating Elle-ments die. I blended a small rectangle of Distress Heavystock with more Distress Oxide Inks- Worn Lipstick, Dried Marigold, Squeezed Lemonade, Twisted Citron and Salvaged Patina. I die cut the Hooray Elle-ments from the blended panel. 


I adhered the Hooray die cut at the bottom of the large blended panel and set the crocodile on top of the die cut. I pulled out the Speech Bubble stamp set and created a speech bubble to hold the "It's Your Birthday" sentiment. I added a few flat star sequins and attached the completed panel to an A2 card base. 


Thanks for stopping by!

Layered Cupcake {Avery Elle}

Hello friends,

I have a card to share today featuring Avery Elle's new Layered Cupcake clear stamps. I was immediately intrigued when I spied the previews for this set, but I was a little apprehensive too because layered stamps can be tricky. 

Once I figured out the layering line up (hint- align towards the bottom, not the top,) it was pure magic. seeing all the layers come together was like watching heat embossing for the very first time. Seriously! I fell in love fast!  


I got a little carried away making layered cupcakes and two of them found their way onto this card. I die cut the images using the coordinating Elle-ments dies and adhered them to a panel of card stock cut with the Wonky Stitches Elle-ments die. I added a couple clear flat sequins and a sentiment from the Sweet Day clear stamps. 


Supplies:

Avery Elle Summer 2021 Release and Blog Hop!

 


Hello friends, 

I am excited to be celebrating Avery Elle's Summer 2021 release today. There's a fun blog hop with loads of inspiration featuring all the goodies from the new line up. 

I have a couple cards to share using the adorable piggy from the Life stamp set. 


The Life clear stamps coordinates well with the Sweet Day stamp set, so I built a little scene featuring the two. It is my fervent wish that PIggy's ice cream is swiftly replaced by the kind ice cream truck bear. 


For my second card, I used only the Life clear stamps along with the Scallop Mat die. The wavy banner is from the new Easy Layers Elle-ments die set. 


I blended a bit of Distress Oxide ink in Tumbled Glass and Twisted Citron on the dotted oval. I stamped  and die cut the images and colored them using Copic Markers. I curved the sentiment slightly and stamped it with black ink on the wavy banner.
