Wishing You Joy Card with White Rose Crafts LLC

Hello Crafty Friends - I am here with a fun card using embossing paste and a stencil. This week we're creating cards and embossing on them. It can be heat embossing, using an embossing folder or some embossing paste.

You get some inspiration and tutorials please stop by the White Rose Crafts LLC Store FB Page and check out Design Team Member Alison's Videos. FB Live Embossapoolza Part 1  &

This is the card I created for this week's Embossing.



Let's get started:
I smudged some Distress Inks in Tumbled Glass, Blueprint Sketch & Salty Ocean onto my craft mat. I then added some water to them and pressed my cardstock card front panel into it. I heat set it dry. Next, I mixed some BoBunny Glitter Paste, Artist Loft Gloss Medium and a bit of Accent Metallic Acrylic Paint in Baroque Pearl. to get the right color for my very large raindrops. I used a kids stencil for the raindrops. I place the stencil where I wanted the raindrops to be and using the plastic paint knife I smoothed som the paste on. I set it aside to dry.
  

Next, I stamped my images and colored them with my Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers. I then fussy cut them out. I used a Memento Tuxedo black pen to color the edges of the images. Then, I adhered the images to the card front panel using both tape and foam tape. I then adhered the card front panel to a dark blue panel. Next, I adhered my layered card front panel onto my card base.
 
I folded over the duck little hand so it looks as if he is holding the umbrella.

For some finishing touches, I added a few Doodles Paper Playground Sparkle Blends: Birthday Collection Aquamarine and a few drops of Nuvo Jewel Drops in Sea Breeze.

Memento Pen - Tuxedo Black

Summer Lantern with Rinea

Hello Crafty Friends - I am here with a fun and cute Summer Mini Hanging Paper Lantern that's perfect for decorating your dining room, back yard during a BBQ or your porch.

This adorable Mini Hanging Lantern is easy to create. I used the SVG file from Simply Crafty SVGs - the file comes with a printable PDF if you do not have an electronic cutting machine. 
Simply Crafty SVGs also has YouTube Video with assembly instructions.


Materials Used:
Recollections Brand Cardstock - White
Pretty Pink Posh - Jewels
Lawn Fawn - Twine

Let's get started!

I downloaded the FREE Lantern SVG from Simply Crafty SVG and then uploaded it into my Brother Scan n Cut. I cut the lantern base from white cardstock and the accent pieces from

I then die cut a few flowers and leaves from several Rinea Foil Paper. The Leaves I cut from 
The flowers I cut from Rinea Blush/Blush StarStruck Foil Paper,

Next, I put adhesive on all the tabs.  Which I folded just like the PDF/Video said to do. 

Then, I adhered the accent Rinea Turquoise/Turquoise Starstruck Foil Paper pieces to the lantern top. Next, I adhered the sides of the lantern together 
  

Then, I adhered the top of lantern together.
  

Then, I adhered the bottom of lantern together. 

The lantern is basically done. I wanted to embellish it with flowers.

I curled the petals flowers a bit to give them some dimension. Then, I adhered some of the flowers together creating layers. I just added a drop of glue to the center of the larger flower and layered the smaller one on top.

I add a leaf and flower to the bottom left corner of the lantern and to the right top.

To give the flowers a finished look I added a jewel to the center. 
(you can add bling, Nuvo drops or buttons- it's totally up to you). 

I then added some twine through the hole at the top of the lantern for hanging. 

Now, your lantern is complete. 
You can make several of these mini lanterns and hang them along with your other party banners.

Hope Your Day Does Swimmingly Shaker Card with Doodles Paper Playground

Hello Crafty Friends - I am here with a mermaid shaker card featuring the 
New Release Sparkle Blend: Mermazing.

No photo description available.
This blend is perfect for your summer projects! 
A gorgeous combination of greens, blues, aqua &; teal - 
this blend is perfect for ocean and beach themes.
 We’ve combined a wide variety of sequins in different finishes and 
sizes ranging from 2mm to 8mm, plus beautiful marbled glass beads
 and tri-tone spheres, as well as open ring sequins that look like bubbles. 
The cute, multi-colored, iridescent mermaid confetti and 
two sizes and styles of shell sequins are perfect for themed projects 
but easy enough to pick out of the mix if you want to save them for a different project.

This is the card I created

I have a quick tutorial for you on how I created this card.
Let's get started:

I start by printing(Mermaid and friends are a digital) and coloring my images. I then fussy cut them out and set them aside. Next, I take a A2 size card front panel and add a light all around coverage of Tumbled Glass Distress ink.
Then, I place a wave stencil onto the card panel. I sponged on some Salty Ocean Distress ink. 
  

Next, I just move the stencil up just a bit and sponged on some Blue Print Sketch Distress ink.
 

Then, I laid bubble stencil on top of the card panel and sponged on some Peacock Feathers Distress ink.

 

Next, die cut a frame into my card front panel. I am now ready to create my shaker card. I gather my components. I also get dark blue cardstock cut to 4.25" x 5.5" for the backing of my shaker.

I start by adhering some packaging material to the back of the frame.  **(you can use acetate instead)
I turn my frame piece over and adhered the mermaid and friends to the clear part of the panel and the frame. 
Tip- I use the frame to help center my wave panel onto the blue cardstock.
Then, I adhered the part I cut from the frame to the center of my now dark blue cardstock (this will be my card front panel). Next, I add my Sparkle Blend on to the wave cardstock piece.  

I  add two layers of adhesive to the frame piece and place it onto the card front panel. Next, I adhered the card front panel onto my card base. Then, I add the sentiment and a few Nuvo Drops to finish off the card. 

Now, the card is complete!

Materials Used:
Digital Image: Jade Dragonne: Mermaid & Friends
Copic Markers: R59, BG72, BG09, BV17, E00,

Happy Birthday Mermaid Card with White Rose Crafts LLC

Hello Crafty Friends - I am here with a fun card using embossing folders and an adorable mermaid stamp from Wild Rose Stamps.

If you haven't seen Design Team Member Alison's FB Live Embossapoolza Part 1 - You really need to check it out. 

Now, In keeping with her tutorials - I created this card.


As always - I start by stamping and coloring my images. I fussy cut them and colored the edges with the Memento marker. Then set them side. Next, I trim all my card pieces and grab two embossing folders.

I started by dying an A2 Card front panel of white cardstock using Distress Oxide in Broken China. I did the direct to the paper method and then sprayed some water that has a bit of perfect pearls mixed in. I heat set it.
 
  

Once the cardstock panel was dry I used the embossing folder. I then added some Distress Oxide in Mermaid Lagoon and some Distress Oxide in Blueprint Sketch watering them down with the perfect pearls mix for some shimmer.
  

Next, I embossed the sentiment and did the direct to paper technique with Distress Oxide Blueprint Sketch and did again a spray with the perfect pearls water mix.
 

Now, for assembling the card. I gathered all the card components and start by using the precision knife to cut into one of the waves so that I could tuck the mermaid. Then, I added some foam adhesive to the mermaid and placed her onto the card front panel. Next, I added foam adhesive to all of the card front panel and adhered it to the card base. I then adhered the sentiment and seahorse with some foam adhesive and I adhered the fish directly to the card front panel. 


Finally, I added a few sequins from Doodles Paper Playground and the card is complete!

Materials Used:
Memento Pen - Tuxedo Black
*(Please note that I used two folders from my stash.
 However, White Rose Crafts LLC carries a variety of embossing folders)
Sakura Gelly Roll Pens -Metallic Gold, Black & White
