One die ...two very different cards With Memory Box

Hello My friends:

With One die ...

the "Juicy Grapes" from Memory Box,  

I made two very different cards...

a joyful  one 

and  a second one, a bit more sad...

but both necessary and making part of life...

The first one, a thank you note, has the leaves sponged with fall colors...

A last view

The second one was a command that I got for a Sympathy card...

I recycle the background paper...this was a paper gift bag and it riped so I decided to re-use the paper and with more subdued colors i came up with this elegant card...

Thanks for the company, 

see you soon...

Halloween Boot Inviation card for Petaloo

BOO!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

hello my dear crafty friends!
as you may know, 
This week I was invited to be

a Guest "Blogger" Designer 

for "Petaloo" at their blog 

as part of their HOP

with "Core'dinations" papers and "Xyron" adhesives!

I shared yesterday with you a sneak peek of my project...

well here it is the whole step by step of this cute invitation!

Sit back and relax!
 There are lots of photos...

pin it:  

To make this card I used "Core'dinations" papers, "Xyron" adhesives and of course an assortment of "Petaloo" flowers

First, I made the shape of the card using my "silhouette" digital cutting electronic machine 

Then gathered these supplies

here are the shapes cut and all the supplies used

I embossed the gray boot and sanded it

"Core'dination" papers are great to sand, this way you obtain a double color on your paper

and I used the "buddy dust" to pick up all the dust, great little tool!

For the trims I used The "Xyron" sticker machine.

Insert the border on the top, pull the paper, rub and peel clear paper. The border comes out with adhesive on the back.

Attach the lace to the border, gathering it and making ruffles

The same for the word "Halloween", which is a file from the "silhouette" digital cutting machine

 

"Petaloo" flowers are great to be colored or altered, in my case I added some glitter on the petals to give them this "sugar" look

I added some pearls on the cream border,  place a spider web die from "Memory Box" underneath the flowers and added a mini clothespin

"Petaloo" flowers come as well in lots of colors and here I choose some black ones.

I folded in half the large black daisy flower and place it on the top of the boot

I Chose a clear envelope to display the boot and decorate the top with  some more "Petaloo" flowers and a circle doily.

Stamp or write inside the details for your Halloween invitation ! 

and Voilà! You have a very cute Halloween Witch boot card

Note: Cut the doily in half and adhere each half  to each side of the envelope

Insert boot on clear envelope and close envelope with a clothespin

And here it is a last photo with both projects featured at the "Petaloo" blog this week for my Guest appearance over there!

Thank you "Petaloo"
