Stampin Up Double Butterflies

August 24, 2015 By Lisa Cornwall

Hello peeps

STAMPIN UP DOUBLE BUTTERFLIES

Have you been enjoying the butterfly basics cards I have shown this week. Todays card, Stampin Up Double Butterflies is something a little bit different. Its an A5 card, and I have used Island Indigo, Melon Mambo, and So Saffron. I cut two butterflies using the butterfly thinnest dies and then stamped the front piece of the card. I left the butterflies plain, but then covered them with with dazzling diamonds to give them sparkle.

I also created stained glass panels to fit behind each butterfly. The itty bitty butterflies were punched out and made 3d as well. Its such a pretty card and I know thats it on its way to a customer in Australia as i speak.

Don’t forget to look at this weeks weekly deals, there are some amazing offers.

Blue Shoes with Stampin UP Guy Greetings

August 17, 2015 By Lisa Cornwall

Hey guys,

STAMPING UP GUY GREETINGS BLUE SHOES

So are you loving the other cards in this series of cards. I have been having great fun using the Guy Greetings stamp set from Stampin Up. Today’s card is Blue Shoes and has been made using the Stampin Up Guy Greetings stamp set.

I have changed the colours again and this time have used pool party. I used the gorgeous large dots embossing folder to create the background. Isn’t this just too cute.

The base of my card is very vanilla and I have stamped the shoes directly onto the inside of the card. The front was matted and layered. The shoes were stamped in a line using my Stampa -ma – jig. This is a great tool for being able to line up stamped images and get them exactly where I need them to be.

I also used it put the sentiment onto the top of the shoes.

The little banner sentiment was stamped and then I used the snips to cut the banner ends into it. The edges of the matting and layering have been distressed with the same colour ink to give definition to the card.

This would make a great birthday card for the fashionista male in your household.

As always all the products used to make this card can be purchased from my online shop simply by clicking the link in the side bar.

Guy Greetings from Stampin Up – Day 2

August 15, 2015 By Lisa Cornwall

Hello lovelies,

Guy Greetings from Stampin Up Day 2

Welcome back to my Week of Guy Greetings from Stampin Up, created for you by Crunchie Crafts Lisa Cornwall.

Today’s card is a little different to yesterdays and is in the most beautiful pale blue you will ever find. This card was a commission order and I really enjoyed working in the Soft Sky colour. It works so well alongside Very Vanilla to give this really classy combination.

Don’t you just love these anchors? The Guy Greetings set is just so versatile and the sentiments are just perfect for those special occasions in any man’s life.

On this card I have used the “You’re my Anchor” sentiment and added “Dad” at the bottom. The main card was randomly stamped using soft sky ink and the anchor stamp. The gorgeous wall was created using our new 6″ x 6″ embossing folder. I then gently sponged the embossed piece of soft sky cardstock to create this really cute wall. The two anchors were stamped onto very vanilla cardstock and then fussy cut using my Snips. These little scissors are just perfect for fussy cutting this kind of shape.

Don’t forget that all the products used in this card can be purchased by pressing the Shop with Me button in the sidebar.

Guy Greetings from Stampin Up – day 1

August 14, 2015 By Lisa Cornwall

Hi everyone,

GUY GREETINGS from Stampin Up created by Crunchie Crafts – Day 1

Apologies for the absence, but family life has not been easy and I needed some time out. But i’m back with lots of lovely projects to show you and hopefully inspire you with. Today I am showing you the first of 5 projects that I used the Guy Greetings stamp set from Stampin Up for. I made these for fathers day, but you can change the greeting for birthday, or for any special occasion for that wonderful man in your life.

To make this I used the lovely new thick Whisper White Cardstock for my card base, cut to 11 3/4″ x 5 3/4″. Folded in half to create a 5 3/4″ square card. Then I added some Typeset DSP, which had been ink distressed.

This DSP (Designer Series Paper) is really lovely to use and is slightly lighter in weight than our other DSP, but the designs are really beautiful and very versatile.

I stamped onto whisper white and cut the gorgeous frame using a rectangle of DSP and our square framelits. Its easy to create this lovely polaroid photo effect in this way. To create the banner I cut a 1″ strip of cardstock, stamped my sentiment and then using Snips cut the banner end. I stuck this onto my card using dimensionals. Everything has been distressed with crumb cake ink, before I added some burlap ribbon and some chevron ribbon, and finally stuck my polaroid style stamped topper.

All these products can be purchased from my online store by clicking the link in the sidebar or here

Check back again to see the next of my 5 projects using this stamp set.
