Spring Easel Card-3

Hi everyone, I am here again today with another Spring themed easel card. This card is again made using my Cricut maker. Can you believe that I had to cut more than 50 mats to get all the details (56 to be precise), crazy right... 

I know you can use something called snap mat on your iPhone/iPad cricut app but but I do not have iPhone/iPad. Also I find I am more comfortable using a laptop or a desktop while designing.  

Here I used 65lb card stock of various colours, foam pop dots of various sizes, glue, foam board strips (for the frame) and Cricut maker for cutting. All the images are from design space.

Hope you do enjoy my cards as much as I enjoy making them !!

P.s: Comments and feedback will really be appreciated

Spring Owl Box Card

Hi Everyone, hope you all are doing well.

I am here again with another Spring themed box card. I thoroughly enjoy making cards with little intricate details, so that every time you look at the card you find something new.

It folds flat for easy mailing. This is again made using my Cricut maker. The butterflies were cut using a punching machine set I have had... I don't know maybe for 8 to 10 years I guess.   

At the back of the card I for the golden border I used Foil transfer kit for maker and drew with purple glitter pen using the drawing option. You don't have to use either of them if you don't have any.

 

 Hope You enjoy this card as much as I enjoyed creating it.

P.s: Check Free File Folder for the link for this card. If you are design space member, it will cut for free. 

Please do not share this digital file. For personal use only.

Feedback and comments are appreciated.

Easel Spring Card-2

 Hi everyone, 

How have you all been doing? It's been long since I have posted or written anything. I have been crazy busy and a bit lazy here with covid vaccinations and my daughters schools.....

So anyway here I am. I have been still experimenting with my easel cards. 

This is another one I created. I am super happy the way it came out. But the sad part is, I realised my file for this project is now corrupted after the latest update of Cricut design space. So I will not be able to share this project until I remake the whole thing over again. 

This is how it looks when you open and make it stand. It folds flat for easy mailing. All the images here were from design space, cut using my Cricut maker. The birds and the grasshopper were print and cut.

The side view to see how it is standing.  

Below you can see the cut pieces and the assembly. This is just to give you the basic idea of what and how I did.

Hope you enjoy this card as much I enjoyed making it!

Spring Easel Card

Hi Everyone,

Hope you all are doing well. 

I sure had a very busy weekend and a very busy week so far. So I have been trying something new... I saw these easel cards sometime ago on the internet, I really wanted to try them out. 

Then while browsing the internet for ideas I came across Kittie Caracciolo's website (Kittie Kraft) and loved her cards. 

Though I loved her cards I wanted to create something different. The lights in my brain clicked on and here we are.

This is my take on easel card. I am very happy the way it came out. I think it's a perfect card for spring or for Mothers day. 

All the images are cut out of card stock. 

For the frame I used foam board cut into 1/4 inch wide long strips.

I used pop dots of different sizes to give the 3d effect.

Hope you do enjoy this card as much as I enjoyed making it !!!

P.s: Comments and feedback will really be appreciated....

Owl Shadow box

This is a 10 layered svg owl file. I loved the way it came out. Here I used Bazzill cardstock of two different shades of brown, pop dots of different sizes, my cricut maker with premium fine point blade. The size of the shadow box was 12x12inch.

I made this in two different colours. For the white one I used recollections plain white cardstock and cricut glitter cardstock. Also for the white owl I used 13x13inch frame. 

This svg file again was bought on Etsy from FabricutVectorFiles, as I have still not mastered making my own svg file. Maybe some day- keeping my fingers crossed!!

Most of these shadow boxes I create go to Wild Wings, which is a not-for-profit organisation. Here they take care of wild birds (including birds of prey) which were injured at some point and would not survive in the wild on their own.
