So In Love Bundle Card

Hello and welcome to Elizabeth's Craft Room ,

Today's card was made with the stunning Falling In Love designer series paper, which sadly is retiring soon!

I simply added a die cut piece done using the So Detailed Thinlits dies. I used a greeting and tiny flower stamps from the co-ordinating So In Love stamp set and  finished with a Vanilla Satin Ribbon bow and two of the stunning Falling in Love embellishments.

Welcome Baby Card with Made With Love

Hello and welcome to Elizabeth's Craft Room ,

I made this card to welcome a new great niece into the world. My niece Sophie, like me, is a great Walt Disney World fan - so I used my only non-Stampin' Up! punch to make the Mickey shapes.

I stamped the rest of the card using the Made with Love stamp set. I used Sweet Sugar Plum ink and ribbon on Thick Whisper White and I was very pleased with how it came out. Hope you like it too.

Nailed It & Build It Vintage Car Card

Hello and welcome to Elizabeth's Craft Room ,

So as I am sharing this card, I am wondering - do you have Haynes car manuals everywhere in the world? I remember using mine to service my mini when I first started driving...but now they just plug my Hyundai into a computer to see what it needs - how times change!

Anyway, things don't change when you own a 1936 Morris 8 like my husband Mike - so this is the birthday card I made for him using the Nailed It and Build It stamps and dies...


Now if truth be told - Haynes Manuals didn't actually start till 1960 - so the manual my DH uses is the one that came with the car - but it was fun making up and mini book on the front of his birthday card. I used the Guy Greetings stamp set for the car and greeting stamps. 

Hope you like it.

Window Shopping Box with Vintage Leaves

Hello and welcome to Elizabeth's Craft Room ,

I have made lots of these hexagon boxes with the Window Box Thinlits dies - but this is one of my favourites - finished on the top with Vintage Leaves stamps.

I layered them with a Lace Doily and added a popped up greeting to the outside (you can make those pop ups with a die in the set.

The flower in the centre is fussy cut from the Succulent Garden designer paper that I used to make the box. It all looks so co-ordinated it makes me happy. :)

Nailed It with Hardwood Card

Hello and welcome to Elizabeth's Craft Room ,

Today's project was one we did at class using the Hardwood background stamp, Nailed It stamps and Build It framelits.

*** This stamp set and framelits are both retiring from the Stampin' Up! catalogue! Scroll to the bottom of this post and follow the link to my online store if you would like them.

\

We stamped a 'plank' of Crumb Cake cardstock with Soft Suede ink using the background stamp then stamped images from the Nailed It set on a Very Vanilla layer and sponged the edges.

Next we stamped the screwdriver on to Silver Foil and Daffodil Delight cardstock, and cut out using the Build It Framelits. We used a White Chalk Marker to make the screwdriver pop in to life

Love this card!

Mediterranean Moments Cafe Card

Hello and welcome to Elizabeth's Craft Room ,

Today's card is made with the Mediterranean Moments stamp set. I stamped the largest image in Crumb Cake ink on the background layer and sponged the edges.

I then stamped the cafe image in Grey Archival Ink and coloured with the Stampin' Up! Watercolour Pencils. I used an Aqua Painter to blend and achieve a subtle washed look. I hope you like the effect.

Dragonflies in Copper

Hello and welcome to Elizabeth's Craft Room ,

This is a card we made at class earlier in the year and I realised I hadn't shared it on my blog. It looks more involved than it is to make.

We first copper heat embossed the dots from the Dragonfly Dreams stamp set and stamped the sentiment from the same set at the bottom.

We cut the largest circle from the Stitched Shaped Framelits and sponged with Soft Suede and Bermuda Bay ink. We then die cut the dragonflies and adhered them with tombow glue.
