Simple Valentine

 

Die Cut Divas' Sponsor for February is none other than Hero Arts.

The Theme: Add some gold - heat embossing, foiling, gold pen, gold thread,
gold gems/sequins/enamel dots... something GOLD.



It's always time for Hero Arts who have always supported Die Cut Divas since we started sponsorships and we are always pleased to spend time with our Hero Arts products. 

Here is my project-

 I cased this card from Jennifer McGuire, (from two years ago) but added the ribbon and changed the sentiment to Valentines. I really liked how the inks and Copics gave the rose a more realistic look.

For more information about the products used in this card, please join me at Just a Nutter Paper Crafter.

Make sure to enter for a chance at that wonderful prize!

Golden with Hero Arts

Hi Crafty Friends! It's Sue here with a card for you. Our sponsor this month is Hero Arts. We are grateful to them for giving our winner a $50 gift card! So generous. Thank you Hero Arts.

Our challenge this month is 

GOLD

Here's my card

For my card, I started with Hero Arts Celestial Bold Prints cling stamp. I heat embossed it with gold embossing powder on a white A2 card panel. I then added distress inks applied with oval ink blending brushes. Using a Waffle Flower Additional A2 Layers die, I trimmed it down slightly. I matted the panel with an A2 panel of gold cardstock, which was die cut with a Waffle Flower A2 Layers die. For the sentiment, I heat embossed, again with gold embossing powder using an old Hero Arts' stamp set, Year Round Sentiments on a strip of purple cardstock. I matted the strip again with gold cardstock. I adhered all the pieces and then the panel to a white A2 card base to complete my card with double-sided tape. 

For more details on how I created this card, check out my foleysfriend blog.

We'd love to see your gold-inspired projects in our gallery this month.

Golden Lotus

 Hi,

Cindy here to share another 'Add Some Gold' inspiration project.  Yes, I was like gold, gold, gold!! 😁

So technically my lotus flower isn't painted gold, but surrounded by gold embossing I think it kind of has that golden glow to it?!

I used Hero Arts Water Flow Slimline Stencil for the background.  And Hero Floral Lotus Stamp and Frame cut for main focul, however it's been retired.  There are several stamp and die set that include beautiful lotus/waterlilies, these could be a great addition to you stash.  For example, Hero Arts Water Lilies Fancy Dies, Hero Arts Color Layering Dragonfly, and Hero Arts Koi Bunch . . . etc.

For more details please visit Escape To Stamping.

Hero Arts is this month's sponsor, and the challenge prize is $25 gift card to their store.

Let's meet up at the challenge gallery!

Be my Valentine with Lawn Fawn

 Hi there - Dawn here to share my Valentine card 

We have an awesome new sponsor, none other than Lawn Fawn!

The challenge is Valentines, so make our hearts happy because it's time to plan and make those fun, sappy, elegant, heart-felt cards for our next holiday, Valentines Day.

Lawn Fawn's Prize is a $25 gift card.

I picked up a cute Lawn Fawn die set just before Christmas.   So here's what I did 

The die set "Candy Hearts" is super cute.   I die cut the sentiment dies in different tones and shades of purple.  I die cut the plain layer with white card and the the IOU from red so I could layer in the red heart.  I found some pretty patterned paper and used another shade of purple for the lower part of the card.   I used a sentiment from a Clearly Besotted stamp set.  I decided it needed a little something more so die cut a Spellbinder's edge die and added some gems along the top.  

We would love to have you join us at Die Cut Divas.  

Dawn and the Divas.
