Whimsical Cards | Paige Evans/Pink Paislee | Tarrah McLean

Hi Sassy Scrappers!
It's Tarrah McLean back with you and today I have some cards to share with you using the gorgeous Whimsical collection by Paige Evans/Pink Paislee. This is my last project using this collection! Stay tuned for something new in the coming weeks!

This week I was really stretched for supplies from my last kit so I decided I would make some super quick cute cards to use up the last of the leftovers! I cut and folded 2 white background card bases and decided to have one portrait and one landscape style.

With the card above, I had some fringing left over from a previous layout so I decided to make use of it by trimming it down to fit the card base. I then adhered the exact same paper behind the fringe to make it look like it was one piece. I added one of the chipboard frames in the centre of the card and added some stickers and a paper strip.

The card below I added both a chipboard and sticker frame and also layered another sticker over the top of the chipboard. I added some banners below and also a couple of the leaf die-cuts. 

Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope I have inspired you to purchase any 6' x 6' paper pad from the Sassy store and create a fun project with it!
Happy creating!
Tarrah x
            

Leanne | Father's Day Cards...

Hello Friends! It's never too early to be organised, right?! And with Father's Day just around the corner... well, okay... we have another month up our sleeves, but still... Organisation, right?! *grin* I thought I might get on board with the awesome Fancy Pants Designs | Good Fellows collection and create three super quick Father's Day cards.

The base of each of these cards has been created using one 12x12 piece of white cardstock. I trimmed the cardstock at 8" and then trimmed the 8"x12" piece in half at 6". Fold each card base in half.

Using the left over pieces from your Good Fellows kit and the mini paper pad, decorate and embellish the base cardstock.
Card 1.

Trim the Good Fellows | Big Fella to 3.75"x5.75" and adhere to the card base. Layer with a piece of paper from the mini paper pad trimmed to 3.5"x5.5". Using the "Father Figure" cut apart on the Good Fellows | So Strong patterned paper, center at the top of the inner layer on the card. Fill the lower part of the card with left over patterned paper (trimmed to 3" in width). Embellish the card with Ephemera Die-Cuts.

Card 2. 

The same layering principle applies to the second card. Trim paper from the mini paper pad to create layers. Using the leftover strips of patterned paper create a three wide banners. Add the "Happy Father's Day" banner from the Ephemera Die-Cuts and complete the card with a few puffy dot stickers.

Card 3.

The final card has been created using the 4"x12" cardstock base. Add strips of patterned paper next to each other and adhere directly to the card base. Embellish with a metal die-cut on the silver foil paper and layer with a banner from the ephemera die-cuts.

And there we have it! Three simple cards all created in under 10 minutes!

Crate cards

Hello Sassy Friends!

Phew, to me it feels like the first week of school holidays has just flown! Hoping that those of you on QLD school holidays have survived the first week ;)

My card stash was looking a touch sad, so I've topped it up using some Crate goodies as well as my little friend, a WRMK Fuse tool. If you have one, I'm sure you would have clapped your hands in delight (as I did) when you saw your custom pocket creations coming to life before your very eyes! I will be endevouring to tell you more about this handy tool as well as the Heidi Swapp Minc (which will be hitting the store shortly) over the course of the month.


This cute shaker pocket was created by first trimming up a bit of leftover Crate Poolside 'Flip Flops' paper. I really liked the ombre angular pattern and used the printed area as guidelines for cutting.

I then took a 12x12 page protector (you can use any make you like, not just the WRMK ones) and trimmed a piece slightly bigger than the card I had just cut up. I arranged the pieces within the plastic sleeve, leaving a gap between the pieces, and then, using the roller-shaped head which comes with the Fuse tool itself, I sealed the outer edge of the plastic pocket, to create a custome size pocket for my cut up card.



Once I had trimmed off the edge with a pair of scissors, I used the Fuse ruler to create a nice straight line between the pieces of card. This created 3 seperate little pockets, into which I popped the sequins.

 

Here you can see how I used the Fuse to seal the outer edge, as well as fuse the spaces between the cut pieces of card.

Once the sequins were all in, I sealed the top edge of the pocket so they, and the card, could not fall out. Imagine the fun Christmas cards you could create with this tool!



This card uses a clear frame with gold glitter detail from a pack of Crate Poolside frames. I've embellished with some blooms (Maggie Holmes floral die & leaves) a cute bow and sentiment sticker



The pink leaves were created with some Fimo and a silicon mold, then baked in the oven.


 

This card uses the totally hoardable glitter plus signs vellum from Poolside.

 
 

Very simply embellished with a 'Thank You' cut with a Heidi Swapp metal die and some gold foil paper. A little banner with a scrap of paper and a bit of glitter ribbon finishes it off.


 

This card has a craft base, onto which I have used some white Dylusions - which has excellent opacity - through a Dear Lizzy stencil.


 

 I've used a couple more Poolside cardstcok frames as well as a chipboard banner sticker.


 

Next, a super simple card number three uses a Prima paint splat stamp and some Hero Arts Ombre ink.



Over the top. I've punced a small hole into the actual card itself and run some twine between the tag (which came in the Mason Jar set) and the card to create a bow.


 

Finishing touches: some adhesive sequins and a few splats of neon Pink Hero Arts


 

Sweet and simple with a slightly distressed look...


 

A scrap piece of the glitter plus sign vellum with a smudge of the ombre ink pad mentioned above, layered with the chipboard sunglasses sticker, which has been roughed up with a bit of sandpaper.


 

 My final card, uses a plain white card which has been run through a Cuttlebug with a floral embossing folder. Over that, I used a leftover Citrus Bliss Insta card and some Flamingo print acetate.


 

On top of the tag I've layered a couple of sweet hearts, which I've machine stitched, that come in the Mason Jar pack.

 

Thanks so much for stopping by today. I'm sure by now you would have seen the amazing new moodboard for July. I hope you will join us!

Have a great weekend!
