Rainbow Sympathy CAS Card

 

Hello everyone and happy Sunday. DT Annalisa here sharing an extra card this week featuring one new stamp set and some older but still awesome T4T goodies.

 I made this card for a friend who unfortunately had to say goodbye to her dog Maverick. This is always such a difficult thing to do as our furry friends are a huge part of our lives.

I don't typically make CAS or clean and simple cards but was inspired by Jo's Facebook Live this week to share this one. To start I used my Large Square Masking stencil to lie down some colour with Distress Oxides (Chipped Sapphire, Faded Jeans and Broken China) onto some 80 lb Neenah Desert Storm card stock. I used my white Gelly Roll Pen to add some white dots as well as lines around the outside of the square area. 

I die cut the Rainbow Mini Shaker Die from some white card stock and coloured in the rainbow with my copics. I stuck these down using liquid glue to the card base. Next, I stamped, coloured and die cut the cute dog from the Happy New Year Critters Clear Stamp Set from the November 2020 release. I stuck the dog on the card on top of the rainbow so that he was hopping over the rainbow which I thought was very fitting for this sympathy card.

I stamped the 'thinking of you' sentiment (Grateful For You Landscape Clear Stamp Set) with VersaMark ink and used some Alabaster ultra fine embossing powder by Brutus Monroe to heat emboss it. To finish the card I added some stars and hearts which I die cut from some Metal Prismatic Foil using the coordinating dies from Storms Don’t Last Forever as well as the coordinating dies from the Santa Paws Clear Stamp Set.

For all of you who have had to say goodbye to a loved furry friend this year, I send you my sympathies. It really is such a painful time and my thoughts are with you.

Rainbow after the Storm

 

Happy Friday! DT Annalisa here sharing a bright card featuring two new stamp sets and two new dies from the July release. This huge release is awesome and can be used to create so many awesome and unique cards!

To start I created a card base 3 1/2 wide by 8 1/2 inches tall and coloured the edges with Salty Ocean Distress Oxide ink. Next, I used the new Scalloped Slimline Die - this is such a great die for slimline cards! I used the Sunny Side up Again stencil and Squeezed Lemonade Distress Ink to create the sun and rays. I used Twisted Citron to create the grass and then added some water droplets on top of the sun and the grass.

Next, I die cut the Rainbow Mini Shaker Die five times from heavy card stock. For the base section, I left the inside rainbow areas in rather than taking them out. I coloured each rainbow section in using Distress Oxides and my Small Beautiful Blender Brushes - the small brushes made this process so much easier! I layered on the other die-cut rainbow sections and glued them down using liquid glue. For the final section, I used some acetate to create a clear barrier, before I glued it on the top I added in some glitz chunky glitter to each rainbow section. The Recollections glitter fits perfectly in each section.

I stamped the kitty with the umbrella and raindrops from the All Occasion Critters Clear Stamp Set and cut them out using the coordinating dies. I used my copics to colour in the kitty stamp. I also stamped, coloured and die cut the little bees from the set - they are so adorable.

I used the coordinating dies from the Storms Don’t Last Forever stamp set to cut out the clouds. I coloured the larger ones in with my grey copics to make them look dark and stormy. I stamped the sentiment 'the greater the storm the brighter the rainbow' and die cut it out.

Once everything was stamped and coloured I adhered all the elements to the card. I added some sparkle to the umbrella and raindrops with my Wink of Stella pen to complete the card.

Rainbow Bookmark & Card Set

Happy Wednesday!

It's DT Shabneez here and I am here to showcase a card and gift in one using the All Occasion Critter stamps and the Mini Rainbow Shaker die.

I began by creating the bookmark which is a die from the Hello Rectangle Stitched Border Die set.  I stamped stars from the All Occasions Stamp set for the background then stamped, coloured and cut out the very cute raccoon as my focal character.  I thought it made sense to have him on the bookmark as he was carrying some stationery!

I did some more background stamping to the base of my card then I die cut the rainbows twice and added holographic card making sure not to adhere a couple of the arches so that the bookmark can slot into it.

Don't forget you can get 10% off anything off in the Time for Tea Designs Store using my code T4TSHABNEEZ10.

Happy Crafting!
