Floral Horseshoe – Pansies


Today I’m sharing a CAS card that I made using KLM Digital DesignsFloral Horseshoe – Pansy from the new September 2024 Release.

The base card was created to the size of 4.25″ x 5.5″ out of Hammermill – Premium 110 lb. cardstock. Cuttlebug Embossing Folder – Swiss dots and a Cuttlebug were used to create the background on Hammermill – Premium Colour 100 lb. cardstock, cut to the size of 4″ x 5.25″. This was popped up onto the base card using U-Line Double-Sided Foam Tape.

The image was printed out with my HP Printer onto Copic Marker X-Press It Blending Card using High Quality Grayscale and coloured in with Copic markers, then fussy cut. A Sakura Glaze – Black pen was used to apply the dot in the eye. Recollections – Purple Passions paper was cut to the size of 4″ x .75″. U-Line Double-Sided Foam Tape was applied to this and it was centred and popped up onto the Swiss Dots background. Crafter’s Companion Luxury Cardstock – Silver  was die cut 3 times using a Cutttlebug and “Good Luck” die from PaperCrafter Today – 15 Die Cut Sentiment Set. I glued the die cuts together with liquid glue to give them an embossed look and then glued them to the sentiment strip. Lastly, Kraftin’ Kimmie – Dazzling Dots were applied around the sentiment to finish off the card.

Mandala #5


Today, I’m sharing a Thank You card using KLM Digital DesignMandala #5 from the new February 2024 release.

Hammermill – Premium Cardstock 110 lb. was used to create a 5.5″ x 4.25″ card base. Crafter’s Companion Luxury Cardstock – Silver was cut to the size of 4.25″ x 4.25″ and applied directly to the base using double-sided tape. Using a Cuttlebug and PaperCrafter Today – 15 Die Cut Sentiment Set, I die cut “Thank You” out of the same cardstock. With My Creative Time -Stitched Squares Inside and Out dies and Cuttlebug, I die cut a 4″ x 4″ square out of Craft Consortium – Ink Drops – Ocean Cardstock. Tim Holtz Distress Ink – Blueprint Sketch was applied all around the outside edges. I also cut 2 small strips of 3/8″x 4.25″ out of the same cardstock. U-Line Double-Sided Foam Tape was applied to the smaller square and it was popped up onto the silver background. Liquid glue was applied to the 2 smaller stripes and sentiment and they were all applied directly to the base card.

The image was imported into Microsoft Word and printed out onto Copic Marker X-Press It Blending Card. I coloured in the image with Copic markers listed below and then I fussy cut around it leaving a thin white border. The Mandala was popped up onto the top part of the card using U-Line Double-Sided Foam Tape. Lastly, using liquid glue, I attached gems from Buttons Galore and More to complete the card.

Love and Cake!


Sharing a birthday card I made today using KLM Digital Design –  Chef Gnome – Cake from the new June 2022 release. This image also comes with 2 more sentiments, “If we are what we eat, well, I’m pretty sweet!” and “If the cake fits, eat it!”. My mom always made our birthdays very special by creating special cake designs every year for each of our birthdays growing up. As a child, I never liked cake, but my mom used to wrap some change into tin foil and hide it in the cake. When all of my friends left, I would take a knife and cut through the cake to get all of the change out to put into my piggy bank. LOL! Unfortunately for me, I developed a sweet tooth when I got older and met my husband who has a really big sweet tooth. Only difference is he manages to keep the weight off. LOL!

I imported the image and sentiment into Microsoft Word and printed them out onto Copic Marker X-Press It Blending Card. The image was coloured in with Copic markers. I added some Wink of Stella – Clear to the icing and then I fussy cut around the coloured image. Using my Anna Griffin Empress Mini Machine and Die-Namics MFT-489 PCD Fishtail Figs STX dies, I die cut the sentiment and also some Aqua cardstock.

The 5.5″ x 4.25″ card base was created using Hammermill – Premium Colour 100 lb. cardsstock. I cut the patterned paper from Echo Parks Paper Co. – Birthday Wishes to the size of 5.5″ x 3.5″ and attached it to the centre of the base using double-sided tape. Two .5″ strips were cut from Yellow Cardstock and then put through my Xyron with one strip attached at the top and one strip on the bottom of the card. The Aqua die cut was added to the right side using double-sided tape. Tim Holtz Distress Ink – Mustard Seed was used to ink around all of the edges of the card. I applied U-Line double-sided tape to the image and the sentiment and popped them both up onto the background. YNS Gumdrops – Celebration Sparkly Gumdrops were added to the top and bottom strips. Lastly, to finish off my card, I ran Art Impresisons – 5335 – Kitchen Mini Dies through the Anna Griffin Empress Mini die cutting machine using Crafter’s Companion Luxury Cardstock – Silver. I ran the 2 pieces through my Xyron Create a Sticker and attached them both to the sentiment tag.
