Stretch Your Dies: Using Non-Background Dies As A Background feat. Catherine Pooler Designs

Hello friends. For this card, I decided to try using one of the dies included in the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit Box (from Catherine Pooler Designs) in a different way — as a background for my images. Let’s see how easy it was to make…

For this card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″. I also cut a piece of CP From the Kitchen 6 x 6 Paper (included in the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit) to 4-1/4 x 5-1/2″, and another piece to 4 x 5-1/4″.

I die cut three baking racks from the CP Cookie Sheet Dies (included in the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit) from Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″. Then cut 3 circles, measuring 2-3/8″ and 1-7/8″, using Stampin’ Up! Layering Circles Dies (may be retired). I also cut scalloped circles from using the same die set that were slightly larger. I colored those circles with CP Rouge, Matcha and Sea Glass Inks using the direct-to-paper technique.

I die cut the backgrounds for the cookies from the CP Baking Spirits Bright Stampset from Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ and colored them with an ink blender and Gingerbread Ink. Then stamped the frosting and piping with Matcha and Sea Glass Ink for the candy cane and Rouge for the frosting of the ornament. I stamped the details with Versamark Ink and embossed with WOW Bright White Embossing Powder.

I stamped the sentiment from the CP Baking Spirits Bright Stampset onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Midnight Ink and fussycut it out to add to the top circle. All the circles were popped up with some 3M Foam Tape.

I stamped the sentiment from the CP Sweet Holiday Sentiments (included in the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit) onto a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with CP Midnight Ink then cut it to 1 x 4-1/4″ and also cut a piece of CP From the Kitchen 6 x 6 Paper 1-1/4 x 4-1/4″. I popped it up by adding some Foam Tape.

I finished the card by adding some Nuvo Crystal Drops in White Gloss.

On the inside of the card I cut a piece of pattern paper to 1 x 5-1/2″ and another to 1-1/4 x 5-1/2″. I stamped a sentiment from the CP Sweet Holiday Sentiments Stampset with CP Rouge Ink and added a cookie.

Dimensions

  • Card Base = 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″
  • Top Panel = 4-1/4 x 5-1/2″ and 4 x 5-1/4″ CP From the Kitchen 6 x 6 Paper (included in the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit)
  • Inside Strip = 1 x 4-1/4″ and 1-1/4 x4-1/4″ CP From the Kitchen 6 x 6 Paper

Cute Penguin Christmas Scene Card featuring Lawn Fawn and Catherine Pooler Designs

Hello friends. Here’s another card featuring these adorable penguins from the Lawn Fawn HERE WE GO A-WADDLING stamps. I paired it with an old die set from Catherine Pooler Designs. It was featured in the Winterhaven Stamp of Approval several years ago!

For this card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create a card base and another piece to 4 x 5-1/4″ for the background. I used the Tim Holtz Salty Ocean, Uncharted Mariner, and Chipped Sapphire Distress Oxide Inks to color the background. Then used a snowflake embossing folder (Stampin’ Up! Winter Snow) to give it some dimension. Then I lightly ran a white pigment ink pad (Lawn Fawn Yeti Pigment Ink) over the raised areas; This enhanced the snowflakes a bit more. (TIP: Make sure to let this dry for several hours before touching the panel or use a heat tool to set it). Lastly, I added some splatters using White Acrylic paint.

Next I die cut the the snowy hills from Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with the Lawn Fawn Stitched Hillside Borders and inked it with Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Ink. I also added some Nuvo Fresh Snowfall Glitter Drops to the snowy hills. I used 3M Foam Tape to adhere the front hillside.

I stamped the images from the Lawn Fawn HERE WE GO A-WADDLING stamps onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored them with Copic Markers. I used R17, R27 & R59, BG10, BG11 & BG32, R20, N1 & 0, N4, N5 & N8, YR04 & YR07 for the penguins; Y13, Y15 & Y17 for the bell and lantern.

I stamped sentiment from the Lawn Fawn HERE WE GO A-WADDLING stamps onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and then cut them down to strips.

On the inside of the card, I stamped a sentiment from the Lawn Fawn Simply Winter Sentiments with Catherine Pooler Designs Rockin’ Red Ink and added a penguin.

Winter Village Christmas Scene Card featuring a Stenciled Pattern Paper Background

Hello friends. For this cute holiday card, I uses a technique I had forgotten about but recently reminded of while watching a Youtube video. The technique is stenciling on pattern paper. It’s an easy way to add depth and interest to a background without adding extra bulk. This card features the Lawn Fawn Spooky Forest Backdrop die and the Lawn Fawn Winter Village Stamps.

For this card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create a card base and a piece of Lawn Fawn Spiffier Speckles 6×6 Paper to ~4 x 5-1/4″ for the background. I used the Tim Holtz Stormy Sky and Faded Jeans Distress Ink along with the Honey Bee Stamps Birch A2 Cover Plate to give some dimension to the background.

Next I die cut the forest from Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with the Lawn Fawn Spooky Forest Backdrop, the snowy hills from more Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with the Lawn Fawn Stitched Hillside Borders and inked it with Tumbled Glass Distress Ink. I also added some Nuvo Fresh Snowfall Glitter Drops to the snowy hills. I used 3M Foam Tape to adhere the forest panel as well as some behind the snowy hills for more dimension.

I stamped the images from the Lawn Fawn Winter Village Stamps onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored them with Copic Markers. I used Y13 & Y18 for the lantern, windows and star; R81, R83, & R85, YG25, YG17 & YG67, C0, C1, C3 & C5 for the houses; YG25, YG17 & YG67 and E25 & E29 for the trees; BG000 and 0 for the snow.

I decided to do a radical thing on this card and have NO sentiment on the outside. What?!? Unheard of, right? LOL. Sometimes it’s ok to leave the outside of your card with just a pretty scenes. Let the recipient be surprised when they open the card.

On the inside of the card, I cut a piece of Lawn Fawn Spiffier Speckles 6×6 Paper to 1 x 4-1/4″ and stamped a sentiment from the Lawn Fawn Winter Village Stamps with Catherine Pooler Rose Petals Ink.

Using the Positive and Negative to Make Two Cards feat. Catherine Pooler Designs

Hello friends. When I’m making cards, I like to be as non-wasteful as possible. With these cards, I am using the Positive and Negative die cuts to make two cards. I am using products from the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit Box (from Catherine Pooler Designs) as well as some others. See how easy this was below.

For the first card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″. I also cut another to 3-3/4 x 4″ which I stenciled the panel using the Ditsy Holly Stencil (included in the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit) and CP Rouge, Cotton Candy, Matcha and Sea Glass Inks.

I die cut a circle (measuring 2-7/16″) from the left side of the panel (save this for another card) as well as two circles (measuring 2-3/8″ and 2-3/4″) from Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ using the Stampin’ Up! LAYERING CIRCLES Dies (retired). I colored the scallop circle using the direct-to-paper technique with CP Rouge Ink and stamped a sentiment from the CP Sweet Holiday Sentiments Stampset (included in the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit) on the smaller one with Sea Glass Ink.

I stamped the snowflake from the Baking Spirits Bright Stampset using CP Cotton Candy Ink and the detail with Rouge then die cut it with the coodinating dies. I embellished it with Sparkling Sugar Sparkles Glitter by WOW.

I die cut the spatula and rolling pin from the CP Mix & Bake dieset. I used Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ for the spatula and colored it with Matcha Ink. The handle and all the rolling pin was die cut from CP From the Kitchen 6 x 6 Pattern Paper (included in the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit).

Lastly I finished the card by adding some CP Bavaria Sequin Mix (included in the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit).

On the inside of the card I stamped a sentiment from the CP Here We Come A Caroling Stampset (this was part of the Winterhaven Stamp of Approval 2017 release) with CP Rouge Ink and added a mitten and spatula.

I used the left over stenciled circle (2-7/16″) from the previous card and added a Vellum scallop circle measuring 2-7/16″ which I die cut using the Stampin’ Up! LAYERING CIRCLES Dies (retired). I stamped a sentiment from the CP Sweet Holiday Sentiments Stampset (included in the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit) with Tsukineko Stazon MIDI JET BLACK Ink.

I used a 1-3/8″ circle punch to cut some circles from same white panel I die cut with the Hobnob Cover Plate Die. And colored them using the direct-to-paper technique and CP Rouge and Matcha Inks.

I finished the card by adding some CP Bavaria Sequin Mix (included in the Baking Spirits Bright Card Kit).

Two Cards Using One Die: No Waste

Hello friends. In honor of Pride month I made these two rainbow cards using the Catherine Pooler Designs Retro Love Dies. This die produces a very cool sentiment that allows you to use the word by itself, with the shadow or even cut out an outline of the word. You can also use it to create shaker cards.

For this first card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create a card base, as well as another piece cut to 4 x 5-1/4″. I added double sided tape to the panel and then cut 1/2 inch strips of colored paper from DCWV Double-Sided Mat Stack 4.5″X6.5″ Brights (may be discontinued – link to similar stack below), Stampin’ Up! Pacific Point 8-1/2 x 11″ Cardstock (retired), and Stampin’ Up! Highland Heather 8-1/2 x 11″ Cardstock.

I trimmed the excess paper and die cut the word “LOVE” from the center of the card. I die cut the word 3x more from Simon Says Stamp 100# Black Cardstock so I can stack them and create dimension and added a piece of the black cardstock behind it.

I stamped the a sentiment from Honey Bee Stamps Autumn Buzzword stamps (retired) onto some Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Catherine Pooler Designs Midnight Ink and trimmed it down to 1/2 x 4 x 5-1/4″. Before adhering it to the card I added some Love From Lizi Silver Glitter Pin Stripe Peel-offs.

I finished off the card by adding some Pretty Pink Posh PLATINUM Pearls.

I left the inside of the card blank.

Dimensions


For the second card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create a card base. Then cut a piece of pattern paper from Catherine Pooler Designs Black Tie Gala 6 x 6 Paper (discontinued) to 2-1/2 x 4-1/4″. I also cut a piece of Simon Says Stamp 100# Black Cardstock to 1-3/16 x 5-1/2″ for the sentiment.

When I die cut the word “LOVE” and the shadow from the center of the previous rainbow panel, it left me with an outline which I will use for this card. I die cut the shadow from Silver Glitter Cardstock. I then stamped the sentiment from the Lawn Fawn Simply Sentiments Stampset with Versamark Ink and heat embossed with Wow White Embossing Powder.

I finished off the card by adding some Smooth Silver Sequin Discs.

On the inside of the card, I cut a piece of the same pattern paper blank to 1 x 5-1/2″.

Hello friends. Mother’s Day is coming soon and if you need to make a quick card here’s one for you. For this very bright and happy card I used stencils to create a quick background with lots of punch.

I stenciled the background using the Lawn Fawn Corner Rainbow Stencils and Tim Holtz Kitsch Flamingo, Spiced Marmalade, Squeezed Lemonade, Mowed Lawn, and Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Inks.

I die cut the sentiment from the top panel using the Lawn Fawn Giant Happy Mother’s Day as well as twice from Simon Says Stamp 100lb Black Cardstock. Then stamped the butterflies from the Simon Says Stamp Beautiful Day stampset (This came in the SSS April 2018 Card Kit which is now discontinued) with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink.
