Hot foils are such an interesting crafty technique because it’s so razzle dazzle and glimmery, especially when you do a reverse hot foil because you use the remaining hot foil pieces. I thought to tone down this reverse hot foil frame, I chose a few die cut pieces to pair it with. I thought it worked really well and I was so happy with the outcome.

I’m generally not a huge fan of dimension with die cuts or even lots of layers, but I’m starting to understand why it’s so fun to add. I used this Lovely Layers: Magnolia to be the centerpiece of my card and it’s such a showstopper.
I used a lot of different elements and love how I pulled all these elements came together and I’m so happy with it!

I rarely, rarely use pattern paper because I find most very busy but I’ve really fallen in love with Honey Bee Stamps’ pattern paper pad. The patterns are nice and simple; perfect for a background for cards that won’t take away the focus from your main elements.

Happy Monday everyone! To start off the week, I’m sharing three cards created using the die set from i-Crafter called Puppy Love.

These cards were super easy peasy! I die cut the three doggies from the stamped images from the die set Puppy Love and then colored them up using copic markers. I decided because of their size that they had to be their own star of the show so I wanted to use one for each card. For the background, I did quick ink blending using Honey Bee Stamps Whimsical Hearts stencil with Speckled Egg and Kitsch Flamingo.
For my first card, I used the sentiment from the Happy Birthday Wiper Insert and added some of the die accessories for the dog. It looks like he’s eyeing that bone doesn’t he?
For this second card, I thought it was so cute that he looked like he was walking, so I used the Thanks from the Pop Up Wiper Insert and placed it in parallel to the doggie.
Lastly, for my final card. I used the corgi who is probably my favorite. He looks so happy! I used the large Hello from Hello Flower right at his feet.
Happy Friday-eve! Today, I’m sharing a card featuring a bunch of Erin Lee Creative products, which ended up with an unintentional tropical card.

I went into this card because I had just learned that you could use alcohol inks on Erin Lee Creative’s Glossy White cardstock so I just wanted to play around to see how it would turn out. I wanted to keep it pretty simple so I just used Pool alcohol ink with some Gold Mixative along with the Blender for a very simple alcohol mix. It does move a little differently compared to Yupo paper but it works really well. I used that panel to cut out the main sentiment using the Jumbo Hi die. It’s generally pretty subtle but I thought it was really pretty, adding something special to the sentiment since there’s a good amount of space for the texture on this sentiment.
For the rest of the card, I used three of the dies from the Birdhouse Builder die set. Using copic markers, I added color onto it because I wanted the texture on them. Of course, you could just easily cut them out using different colored cardstock but I had my markers out so I figured why not. I placed the sentiments and the die cuts on a piece of A2 Glossy Black cardstock. Oh my! This is so fun to play with because it’s so dark and made my sentiment and florals REALLY pop.
To finish off this card, I used a few embellishments from Trinity Stamps (which are no longer in the shop, but you can use any ones you have in your stash) to fill up the empty space and I love the final product.

Happy Friday-eve! Today, I’m sharing a card I created using some leftover scraps from a previous project. In that project, I had used Mama Elephant Quick Stripes dies to cut out a bunch of colorful stripes. Of course, I had a bunch of them leftover so I decided to use it to create a quick die cut card with an i-Crafter Box Pops Flowers die.
All my supplies for creating this card will be listed down below (with multiple sources when available) for your curiosity and convenience. Affiliate links used when possible.
I used the flower die in this set along with the solid coordinating die from the i-Crafter Box Pops Flowers set, cutting the flower out of white cardstock and the solid die out of black cardstock. I trimmed down the white flower outline removing the stem so it would be a standalone floral.
Using Hero Arts Precision Glue, I just added the leftover stripes from the Quick Stripes set to an A2 card white card panel in varying lengths allowing a nice pop of color for the background concentrated on the left hand side. I took the Thanks sentiment from the i-Crafter’s Pop Up Wiper Insert and added it as the sentiment. I took the florals I put together from the i-Crafter Box Pops Flowers set and decorated them on top of the stripes.
Isn’t it such a fun card? You can use any dies in your craft stash to create this easy card! Thanks for stopping by! Happy Crafting!

I had this idea in my head and I wanted to create a fun card that kinda reflected our zoom calls of late. For my main card panel, I stamped and heat embossed the little envelope with gold embossing powder which can be found in the Magical Wizards stamp set. Then, I pulled out the Hip to be Square die set, which is a slimline die but I wanted to use it in another way for this A2 card.
Happy Friday everyone! TGIF! I am so excited to share this card with you today — I think it’s one of my favorite cards I’ve made in a really long time. It features some items from the newest kit from Erin Lee Creative and this one is a stunner!

I had an idea that involved playing with the ever so popular holographic cardstock sold in her store and changing the color of it by using some inks. First, I die cut the rainbow using one of the dies that comes in the Shine Bright kit with holographic cardstock. Then, I used a rainbow array of colors from Ink on 3: Marilyn Red, Marigold Orange, Goddess Green, Peacock Blue and My Jam Purple. I pounced on the color for each rainbow stripe using a blending tool. To trap the color, I added Glossy Accents on top of each stripe separately and let them dry. Not only does it trap the color, it adds dimension to each of the rainbow stripes.
I went ahead and used that same Rainbow die to cut out the clouds out of white cardstock. I used some copic markers to add a bit of dimension to them.Also, in the kit, it has a standalone die and shadow for the No Bad Days sentiment. I cut out the words from holographic cardstock and the shadow from vellum.
For my background panel, I used one of the sun ray stencils in the kit. There’s two that can be used to layer on top of each other so you’d have two different rays of colors. For my card, I decided only to use one with Ink on 3’s Liquid Pixie dust on black cardstock. Since it’s on dark cardstock, you won’t see it until it hits the light and adds that extra bling to any card.
I absolutely love this card and the kit that I used to create it. It’s so fun and I think it’s totally worth it! I’ll be sharing additional ideas in the coming weeks using this kit as well. I’m also participating in the Shine Bright instagram hop so if you want to see more wonderful ideas, please stop by here.

For my main card panel, I used those cut strips and trimmed them down even further and adhered them in a easy pattern. For my sentiments, I wanted to use a dark grey cardstock so it would help the sentiments pop. I also wanted to have a very subtle design on it so I decided to use Trinity Stamps A2 Quilted Coverplate die. The die cuts a quilted pattern and leaves empty the area of intersection (because there are coordinating stencils to go with it). I decide to not use the coordinating stencils and replaced them with a variety of embellishments to add a bit of bling to the card.
I just love how these turned out and honestly am so excited that I found this crafty company. I can’t wait to see their future products!

Hi everyone! Ok, I’ve been really bad with keeping up with doing blog posts but I’m trying to get back into it.
Today, I’m really excited to be a guest designer for i-crafter today. I’m so grateful to have the opportunity to share my creations with you! For today’s blog post, I actually ended up creating three different cards showing off three different designs using the dies from the Box Pops, Flower Add On set. The possibilities are really endless!
YouTube process video; supply list used for this proect is listed at end of blog.
For my first card, I used the leafy die, which was so perfect for a simple frame design. I quickly used watercolors for the background and added some splatter. While die cutting the leafy die, I also took the interior bits and ink blended them with similar colors and did some die inlay.
To finish off this card, I used the “hello” sentiment from the Hello Flower die set in black. The leafy die cuts really make that sentiment pop!
For my second card, I thought I would use this really pretty, intricate floral die to create a circular design. Once I die cut 8 of these florals, I inked them up quickly. For the sentiment, I used the sentiment from the Happy Birthday Wiper Insert and inked them up using the same colors for the florals while creating an ombre effect.
To really have the florals pop, I put them up on kraft cardstock and thought they colors went so well together. The coordinating sentiment really tied together the entire card.
For my third card, I decided to use a slimline design and again only used one die for this particular card.
I took some watercolors and quickly created a rainbow background and placed each die cut in each color section.
This is one of those designs that can be quickly created for a simple and elegant card. To finish off this card, I used the smaller hello in the Flip Card Dashed Circle die set and actually used a gold pen to give it a bit of elegance.
I really loved how all these cards turned and hopefully, these examples gave you some ideas for the endless possibilities of this Box Pops, Flower Add On die set.
Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a crafty day!
