A Duo to LUV! Tone-On-Tone Background + Pop of Color: Amore Laurafadora
Hi friends! Happy Sunday! Please join me in welcoming back special guest Laura Bassen with a pair of sweet love cards to inspire you to create this weekend! She made a duo of using both the positive and negative of the cut out “Luv You” sentiment from our new Circle Sentiments set as well as created a gorgeous tone on tone background using our Buttercream ink and cardstock with our new Harlequin Heart and Outline Hearts background stamps! Be sure to watch the video for all the details and enjoy!

3D Aurora Blooms Shadowbox with Rattan Paper-Weaving | Let’s Get Crafty with Caly!
Hi everyone! It’s Caly Person here today!
I have a special shadowbox project to share today that features some paper-weaving! I love 3D flowers so I’ve used the Aurora Blooms set to shape them for 3D flowers on today’s project.
I used the Tim Holtz/Sizzix Shaping Kit to turn the 2D die-cut Aurora Blooms into 3D flowers/foliage.

The weaving part of this project was the hardest part – but it’s so worth it to have a unique background for a project like this. This rattan pattern is a favorite of mine and I’m glad I got to try it and use it on this shadowbox! Be sure to check out the video above to see how it’s done and to get instructions!
After weaving, I ink-blended my die-cuts and shaped them with the Tim Holtz/Sizzix Shaping Kit. I created little flower buds from smaller flower die-cuts. I didn’t add a sentiment to this since it’s not a card – but what do you think? I really didn’t want to cover up the beautiful weave with another element and I didn’t think it was necessary.
Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope you like this project!

Make it Move! A Rainbow Birthday Card Featuring Art Impressions
Hey there friends, it’s Nina-Marie Trapani here with you! I have a bright and happy birthday card to share with you using the So Sweet “Armfuls” Art Impressions set. This rainbow-inspired birthday design features some ink blending, a bit of foiling with glue, and an interactive element—action wobbles!
In this project I used our Simon Says Stamp Balloon Bunch stencil to create the rainbow background—the bright hues look so good paired with the marker choices I made for the elephant’s coloring. I foiled on top of a Flashy Flare embossed background, which adds a great highlight around the rainbow panel! There are other cute embellishments such as chunky glitter on the cupcakes and clear Splash Drops that are placed around card. The sentiment I chose for this card comes from our Simon Says Stamp and CZ Design Birthday Basics set.
Learn more about how I made this happy card by watching the video below!
