Love Canvas featuring Arcadia

Hi everyone!  I have a canvas that I made for my mom for Mother's Day using the beautiful Arcadia range from Ruby Rock-It.  I had so much fun making this canvas using the gorgeous Arcadia papers and Fiskars punches.



I used the Fiskars Everywhere Punch system to create a mask.  I mixed up some paint, medium and a touch of glue to create this pattern on my paper.  I added a touch of glue because I sprinkled the paint with glitter when it was wet- everything is better with glitter!!


You can see the glimmer a bit better in this photo.

A huge thanks to Fiskars!!

Gift Card holder Tutorial- featuring Ruby Rock-It!


Hi everyone! I have a tutorial today for a fun little gift card holder.  I'm using the beautiful Arcadia range.  The papers are gorgeous and perfect for any feminine or vintage inspired paper crafting.


If you want to create this gift card holder, here is what you will need:
Cardstock- you will need one piece cut to 5 1/2" by 9 1/4" and 2 pieces cut to 3 3/4" by 2 3/4"
a strip of plastic bag cut 1" by 12"
a 1" circle punch
patterned paper cut to fit the front of your card and for the inner panels of the gift card holder
embellishments
scotch tape
Super tape or your favorite red liner tape (1/4")

You will need to score the 5 1/2" by 9 1/4" cardstock at 2 3/4", 5 3/4", and 8 3/4"

Mother's Day Banner- Featuring Ruby Rock-It and Fiskars

Hi everyone!  I have a fun little banner to share with you that I created for Mother's Day featuring the ever beautiful Reminisce Range.  It's that time of year to show our mom's how much we care and how much we appreciate all that they do for us.  Whether it be listening to our woes, chatting about our children  or just having a girls day out, we can always count on Mom!
We are also featuring an array of Fiskars products as well this month.  Not only does Fiskars have the cutest designs, but their punches work wonderfully!

Reminisce's color palette is just absolutely perfect for all of your Mother's Day crafting projects!
Here are some close-ups of the banner:

I used the Large Easy Squeeze Punch: My Funny Valentine to make this flower.  I punched 8 paper hearts and 4 Vellum hearts to make this flower.  I placed 4 hearts together, points kissing,  on the page, and then created 2 more layers of 4 hearts, off-setting the hearts as I layered to make this flower.

I love making medallions.  Ruby Rock-It's paper is a wonderful thick paper that holds up well with all of the scoring and folding that is involved- no tearing with this paper!

After scoring my paper, I used my Fiskars border punch to create a pretty edge for my medallions.  I would recommend waiting to punch the edge until after you have scored your paper- this prevents tearing some of the delicate details while scoring.
