Die Cut Cards

Hello!
Rosie here with a few cards for your viewing pleasure😊 using some fun dies available in the store.



Can I be honest? I wasn't going to invest in the Lawn Fawn Magic Picture Changer Die but after making a couple of sample cards I was hooked; for the card above I used the Lawn Fawn Birthday Before and Afters set. I stamped the images on Copic friendly card stock and coloured with Copic Markers. 
I can't wait to use this die with some of the new Lawn Fawn release which you can preorder right HERE. 

There are a number of great dies in the store and I finally had a bit of time to create some cards with them. First up is a card featuring the Tim Holtz Destination Die:


The card front is created by ink blending Distress Oxide inks in Squeezed Lemonade, Picked Raspberry, Wilted Violet and Blueprint Sketch. I then adhered Die Cut'N Bond double sided adhesive to black card stock and cut the Destination (globe) die cut. The die cuts all the pieces out as you can see in this photo:
I left a few of the die cut pieces in place as you can see below:


The sentiment is from Mama Elephant Friendship Sentiments, stamped in Versafine Black Onyx ink, heat embossed with Ranger Clear Embossing powder on vellum. The top and bottom are framed with a sliver of Best Creations glitter card stock. The sentiment is adhered with liquid glue over the die cut.

These next two cards showcase the versatility of the Tim Holtz-Thinlits Dies Retro Repeat, the set has 4 different dies that can be used to create a border or a repeating die cut across a card front. It also happens to be on sale right now at close to 50% off so it's a great value for 4 dies!


Here you can see how the die easily lines up with the previous cut to carry across the card front inked with Distress Oxide inks.


The die cut front is then layered over dark silver glitter card stock, sentiment from the Mama Elephant Friendship Sentiments set and sparkle courtesy of Studio Katia gems.


Here we have a completely different look as the silver glitter card stock is die cut with the "star" thinlet and then layered over an alcohol pearl ink background with foam adhesive.

The sentiment is die cut with the Altenew Fancy Hello die from the same alcohol pearl ink background.

I hope you've enjoyed a quick look at some of the metal dies available in the store, thanks for stopping in to take a look!

Getting Your Planner Ready For Christmas!

Hello friends! It's Karla back with one more post using some of the fabulous new products available in the Scrap Shotz Store - Kaisercraft First Noel Collection and the Sizzix Tim Holtz Thinlets Die Swirling Stars. Everytime I looked at the Kaisercraft Sticker Booklet all I could think about was how awesome it would be to decorate my planner for December - there are over 800 stickers in it! I used lots of stickers along with the beautiful First Noel papers and some diecut ephemera pieces as well.


I cut one of the 12x12 papers and punched holes in it to fit right in my A5 Personal Planner, making a little tabbled divider. The diecut ephemera pieces were great to use with some large paperclips to tuck into the planner pages.  


I used the gold numbers from the sticker booklet to number each day and cut out some of the images from the paper, using coloured pencils to add some colour.


The black stickers and sentiments from the booklet were great to add directly onto each day.


I even added stars using the Sizzix Swirling Star diecuts as a stencil with some Distress Oxide Ink.


I added some doodles and the Christmas Eve sticker from the 12x12 sticker sheet. A little red star cut from the Sizzix die set adds another pop of colour.


Now my planner is ready for adding in all the fun December details as they arise!

Kaisercraft First Noel and Sizzix Stars Layout and Video

Hello friends! It's Karla back today with more fun projects using Kaisercraft First Noel Collection and the Sizzix Tim Holtz Thinlets Die Swirling Stars - both new products in the Scrap Shotz Store! These fun supplies are going to be awesome for your Christmas crafting! If you missed the post where I share a video closeup of all these products, along with a layout and three cards, click HERE.

Today, I'm sharing this sweet Christmas layout of my daughter's Kindergarten nativity pageant where she played Mary. I thought this paper was just perfect with the three wisemen printed directly on the background! I'm using the October Sketchy Challenge from Creative Scrapbooker Magazine, and you can see the process I used in the video below.


There are so many fun elements to layer in this collection- papers, stickers and diecuts!! I added a border sticker from the 12x12 Sticker Sheet across the top of my photos and then layered a 3x4 card from the cut apart sheet with leafy stickers from the Sticker Booklet and sweet bird diecuts from the Ephemera Pack.



The Swirling Star dies are so fun to use, just as you would sequins or enamel dots - simply glue them on wherever you like! The sticker booklet has lovely sentiment stickers - I layered one directly on the photo on the left and one under the photo on the right. I wrote my journaling directly on the page, using the grid pattern as a guide.


Here's a look at the process video where you can see exactly how I created this layout-

New Product Reveal with Karla!

Hello friends! It's Karla back today with a look at some beautiful new products in the Scrap Shotz Store that will be perfect for your Christmas crafting - the Kaisercraft First Noel Collection and the Sizzix Tim Holtz Thinlets Die Swirling Stars.  The colour scheme of these papers, stickers and diecuts are so elegant!


The 12x12 Sticker Sheet has so many beautiful stickers! I love the package of diecut ephemera 💛 The sticker pad has over 800 stickers, and they are going to be perfect for all your Christmas craft projects. And, the Sizzix Swirling Stars dies will be awesome to use all year round!


These papers are so beautiful! Here's a look at both the front and back sides. The only hard part will be choosing which side to create with 😉


Here's a video as well where you can see a closeup of all these products and designs:


I had so much fun creating with these supplies! First up was this layout of my daughter when she was 3 at Christmas. She looks so adorable in her little green dress and curly hair!


I used some of the ephemera diecuts to layer on the background paper and added some fussy cut presents and stickers. There are really so many fun options for layering!


I diecut one of the swirly star dies from a stitched circle diecut using kraft cardstock. These dies are so cool because they create a negative image. You also get several small star dies in different sizes and shapes which I used to cut some glittery green and red cardstock from.


I love the background paper with the beautiful ornaments printed right on it. I layered my photo on top of various other scraps of paper to create a messy frame.


I even used the star dies to cut into a corner of my layout, adding a triangle of kraft cardstock and backing it with the green border I used around the layout.


Next, I wanted to make some pretty Christmas cards using all the beautiful supplies I showed you above! 


I diecut oval shapes from ivory cardstock and layered them over different papers and then used fun foam to pop up the oval cut out layer for dimension. For this card I used a tree and stockings from the diecut package and added a sticker from the sticker booklet.


I used the three wise men cut apart card from one of the 12x12 papers as my focal image for this card and added stickers from the booklet and a sentiment from the diecut package. Inside each card I added a sentiment strip and added a circle sticker on each envelope, again from the sticker booklet.


I used an angel sticker and some diecut trees for this card. Left over stars from diecutting yellow and kraft papers added lovely details to the cards, inside and out.


Thanks so much for stopping by! Be sure to head over to the Scrap Shotz store to check out the Kaisercraft First Noel Collection and the Sizzix Tim Holtz Thinlets Die Swirling Stars, and don't forget you can always browse what's new HERE! Have an awesome weekend friends!
