Slimline Paper Pieced Floral with Rachel Vass DesignsI

 Hi there.   At Die Cut Divas this month our sponsor is Rachel Vass Designs and our theme is Flowers.   

I tried something a little different with my Rachel Vass florals by paper piecing the florals.

I printed the image -Floral Border Slimline - three times... once on white card stock, one on cream colour paper and once on purple paper.   I cut the white panel with Pink Fresh Studios Essential Mini Slimline dies.  The purple layer was cut with another of the dies from that set.  I used some pencils to add some colour to coloured flowers.  I then fussy cut them and added to the base.   Just prior to Christmas I purchased a Go Press and Foil machine and ordered some Spellbinders foil dies.  This one I foiled with silver foil.  Using this machine is just another way to use your die cut machine... I use a Cuttlebug and the foiling machine goes through perfectly.  

Do come and join us with your Flowers this month. 

Floral Love

Hey Diva friends - Linda here with a Love card (could be Valentine or other) using the Floral Heart digi file by our wonderful sponsor Rachel Vass! I just love her gorgeous floral images - perfect for our January theme FLOWERS.

Our January random winner will receive 3 of Rachel's digi designs.

Digi - Rachel Vass Floral Heart

 

I sized the heart wreath to fit an A2 card. Printed and colored it with Copics, then fussy cut. You can see more details plus bonus cards at my blog (Scrappin', Stampin', & Singin') HERE.

We'd love to see you in the January Diva Challenge gallery! You have until 9pm Pacific Time on 1/31/22 to enter. Just be sure to include a die cut or embossing folder along with the theme of flowers. You don't need Rachel's designs to play along, any flower will do! But I hope you'll check out her designs if you enjoy the digi format. I love her gorgeous flowers!!

Thanks for stopping!

Our theme is to create a Winter/Christmas project with the option of making a shaped card. Frantic Stamper is sponsoring this challenge and generously donated a lovely Christmas die bundle (see the challenge post for full details). Here's my shaped card:

Dies - Sunny Studio Santa's Stocking (Available at Frantic Stamper here).

I couldn't resist this darling stocking die set! I formed an A2 stocking shaped card by not cutting through the top folded edge of the cardstock. Then I added the patterned layers - such fun!!

It's Raining Christmas Cards Today

  

Frantic Stamper is Die Cut Divas' Sponsor for the December Challenge of Winter/Christmas project with an optional twist to make a shaped Winter/Christmas Card.

The prize is a Christmas Die Bundle!  Check out our Challenge Post to see the bundle here.

You can find so many "must haves" at Frantic Stamper and I was looking for something that had a WOW factor and I think I found a couple of "must haves" and I know I found many wonderful "must haves".

These houses are going to family.  Since I cut everything from glitter cardstock, which is heavier than normal cardstock, so I was cutting for what I thought was forever, but was not.  For the results, I would gladly do this again with glitter cardstock.  The glitter is incredible and even if I say so myself, just beautiful.  Since my base cardstock was glossy, I used a stopper for each card, e.g. "ho-HO-ho!" on the blue cards.

Supplies:

Poppy Stamps Winter House Pop-up Easel Set at Frantic Stampers

IO dies - Birch Trees (small die-cut birds on houses)

Elizabeth Craft Designs various sentiments stamp sets

Glitter paper in stash

Vagabond die-cut machine
