Happy Father's Day Card - Crafts Dies by Sue Wilson

Hello Friends!
I have a hard time making cards for the guys. I think a card without flowers does not look complete to me. But when it comes to making a card for my husband I have to make the exception, he would not approve if a put a flower on his card. LOL!!!
I think this Portuguese Collection - Background die set by Sue Wilson is perfect for the occasion.

Instructions:

I started by making a 5" x 7" card base with black cardstock. I die cut all the layers using the Portuguese Collection - Background die set and cardstock in natural white, kraft and black as pictured below. 

I adhered the layers to the card using foam squares to add dimension. For the Happy Father's Day sentiment inside the card I used Cheery Lynn dies and black cardstock. 

Supplies:

Other Supplies: Neenah Papers in Black, Natural White and Kraft Cardstock. Foam Squares, Happy Father's Day dies by Cheery Lynn Designs.

Happy Father's Day Candy Box

Hello Friends!
Today I would like to share with you these candy boxes that I made in no time, all the work is in the stamp and coordinating die. The beautiful stamp is from the new set Going Places Vintage Labels by JustRite Papercraft, it is perfect for Father's Day, graduations, and other occasions. The coordinating JustRite die is from the new set Vintage Label & Banner Dies, this die template set is custom designed by Spellbinders.

Here are the easy instructions on how to make the smaller box:

1. To make the box, first cut a 3  3/4" square base with beige cardstock. Score a 1/2" mark on 4 sides and cut the corners out.

2. Stamp 4 of the smaller label from the cling stamp set Going Places Vintage Labels on beige cardstock using brown ink. Die cut using coordinating die from the set Vintage Label & Banner Dies by running it through the Grand Calibur machine by Spellbinders. Glue the 4 labels on each side of the square just before the crease line as picture below shows.


          

3. Also die cut 4 blank labels for the inside of the box in brown cardstock. Glue brown labels on the inside of the box.

4. Color image using Copic markers. Punch small holes on each corner as picture below shows.

5. To form the basket, tie a bow in each corner using Crafter's Cord. For the tag, I used the Happy Father's Day stamp from the new set Anchors Away and die cut it with Nested Medallion Labels by JustRite Papercraft. 

For the larger box, use the larger label stamp in the set and cut the square base 4 3/4" and then follow the same steps. 

Here is the final project:

JustRite PaperCraft May Release and Exciting News!!

Hello Friends!
I am so excited to announce that I have been asked to join the JustRite Papercraft Design Team!!! I feel so honored to be among such a wonderful group of talented ladies!
I have loved JustRite rubber stamps for a long time, they are just beautiful, and they also have die cutting  templates that coordinate with their stamps. I use their stamps in just about every project I make, they have a sentiment for every occasion.
I am so grateful for this opportunity and I look forward to creating projects with their wonderful products. Visit their blog at "JustRite Inspiration" for more information on their May Release and to see this announcement.

For the next few days JustRite will be revealing  the new May Release, a wonderful collection of 9 stamp sets and 1 set of coordinating dies!!!

Today, I am showcasing 2 fabulous new sets called "Anchors Away" and "Vintage Travel Background Stamp", which I used for my Happy Father's Day card above.

For my card, I stamped and dry embossed the images on creme card stock using Versamark and brown embossing powder and then I colored them by using a sponge applicator and Ranger's Distress Inks in Broken China, Peeled Paint and Brushed Corduroy.

 I also used the JustRite Custom Design Die Templates called "Nested Medallion Labels". They coordinate with the stamps and it makes it very simple to have a perfect cut around the stamps. The embossed background was created using M-Bossabilities "Elegance" by Spellbinders.
