Amazing Paper Grace | You’re Amazing

On By patriciamanhireIn Patricia's CreationsLeave a comment

Today I have a pretty clean and simple card to share with you made using the Amazing Paper Grace You’re Amazing Etched Dies from the Right Words Collection by Becca Feeken from the The Right Words Collection. I have taken my inspiration from a Spellbinders Influencer – Yasmin Diaz who does the most wonderful white on white background cards with a splash of colour and from Rajni Chawla who is also on the Amazing Paper Grace Creative Team. I love how she adds sentiments to cards in so many different ways and today I have used her idea using a vellum band.

Today’s projects were used with dies provided by Amazing Paper Grace.

My Projects for Today

For my project today I have made a 5″ x 7″ card using the Amazing Paper Grace You’re Amazing Etched Dies from the Right Words Collection by Becca Feeken. I have created a cover die by die cutting three dies times on a piece of cardstock using the decorative die from this set. This is a wonderful versatile die that can be used in so many ways. I have then added some Pearlescent vellum behind this die for a softer effect and finished off the card by adding the sentiment on a band of Pearlescent Vellum. I have added strips of gold on the top and bottom of the die to tidy up the edges. I have added some pretty tulips from the Amazing Paper Grace Layered Tulips Etched Dies from the Layered Fleur Bouquet Slimlines Collection by Becca Feeken for a pop of colour on the white on white background. Because I had already made the flowers this card was very quick and easy to put together.

I have stacked the sentiment with three layers to create depth and dimension on the card.

To finish I have added some pearls in the centre of the fans and on the sentiment band.

The new The Right Words Collection is just perfect to add the finishing touches to personalise my cards. And I really love the mix of font in the Amazing Paper Grace Thank you for your Kindness Etched Dies from the Right Words Collection by Becca Feeken and I was inspired to create this beautiful Thank You Card adorned with gorgeous flowers.

Today’s projects were used with dies provided by Amazing Paper Grace.

My Projects for Today

For my project today I have made a 5″ x 7″ card using the Amazing Paper Grace Thank you for your Kindness Etched Dies from the Right Words Collection by Becca Feeken as a gorgeous base for some beautiful handcrafted flowers made from the Amazing Paper Grace Layered Cherry Blossoms Etched Dies from the Layered Fleur Bouquet Slimlines Collection by Becca Feeken. I have an exclusive tutorial on how I have created these flowers on the Amazing Paper Grace Encouragement Group on Facebook.

I have used the Amazing Paper Grace Romantic Slimline Borders Etched Dies from the Classically Becca Collection by Becca Feeken to create a lacy edge to the gorgeous background dies.

The pretty pink flowers from the Amazing Paper Grace Layered Cherry Blossoms Etched Dies from the Layered Fleur Bouquet Slimlines Collection by Becca Feeken.

I have used the blue, white and silver cardstock for the ‘kind’ sentiment to tie it to the base card. The oval dies from the Amazing Paper Grace Fluted Classics Ovals Etched Dies from the Fluted Classics Collection by Becca Feeken make a perfect background for the sentiment dies.

I have stacked the sentiment with three layers to create depth and dimension on the card.

To finish I have added some pink iridescent gems on the card to coordinate with the flower centres.

Amazing Paper Grace | The Right Words Collection Intro Blog Hop

I love layering die cuts from different collections and adding texture with embossing folders to create elegant cards for all occasions. The new The Right Words Collection is just perfect to add the finishing touches to personalise my cards.

Today’s projects were used with dies provided by Amazing Paper Grace.

My Projects for Today

For my projects I am using the Amazing Paper Grace Merry Everything Words Etched Dies from the Right Words Collection by Becca Feeken.

For my first card I have created a sweet notecard using the Amazing Paper Grace Scalloped Symphony Notecard Etched Dies from Sweet Serenade Notecards Collection by Becca Feeken. All the dies for this card came in the one set which made this very quick and easy to make.

I have trimmed the tag from the Amazing Paper Grace Merry Everything Words Etched Dies from the Right Words Collection by Becca Feeken to fit the smaller card and enable the sentiment to stand out from the decorative die background.

The pretty pink flowers from the Amazing Paper Grace Layered Cherry Blossoms Etched Dies from the Layered Fleur Bouquet Slimlines Collection by Becca Feeken evoke a sense of spring and rebirth to fit with the Easter sentiment.

I have used the layering dies to create more texture and interest with the silver bands from the Spellbinders Mini Slimline layering dies.

I have stacked the sentiment with three layers to create depth and dimension on the card.

I have angled the sentiment over the label rather than straight which made it easier to add the flowers on the ends of the card.

To finish I have added some pink iridescent gems on the label to coordinate with the flower centres.

The decorative die from the Amazing Paper Grace A2 Filigree Marquis Etched Dies from the Classically Becca Collection by Becca Feeken fits perfectly behind the label, and I have added the label using foam tape for more depth.

Amazing Paper Grace June 2022 Die of the Month

On By patriciamanhireIn Patricia's Creations2 Comments

Isn’t this just the cutest wee car!! And it is perfect for creating aa 3D Vignette as well as creating a flat card with this die set for weddings and/or road trips! I love making wedding cards and for my projects today I have taken my inspiration from the last scene on the movie Grease and also the card that was on the packet of the Spellbinders Sun Burst stencil.

Dies for my creations today were supplied by Amazing Paper Grace.

There are 26 cutting dies included in the Pop Up 3D Vignette Road Trip.

I have made two cards and added the decorated car over the bottom car with foam tape to create some dimension and depth.

The ‘Just Married’ sentiment fitted perfectly on the front – reminiscent of cars being decorated for the bridal party to depart on their honeymoon.

To create my background I have sponged some blue and yellow inks on a piece of white cardstock. To finish the background I have used Nuvo White Glimmer paste to create the rays using the Spellbinders Sun Burst stencil.

I have added some gorgeous small flowers using the Amazing Paper Grace Petite Floral Potpourri Etched Dies from Beautiful Sentiment Vignettes Collection by Becca Feeken set to embellish the fronts of both the 3D Vignette and the flat card.

I have placed the car on an angle on the card front to give the illusion of the car taking off into the sky.

I have kept to the same decorations on the 3D vignette to show that you can do the same which ever way you wish to create with this die set.

This car looks ready to drive away into the sunset!

I have kept the colours simple to help create a harmonious colour palette.

The 3D Vignette just folds down for easy posting!

Amazing Paper Grace Thank You

On By patriciamanhireIn Patricia's CreationsLeave a comment

I love the versatility of the Amazing Paper Grace Half Slimline dies by Becca Feeken and today I have created a 5″ x 7″ Thank You card using the Amazing Paper Grace Half Slimline Bracket Etched Dies from the Layered Fleur Bouquet Slimlines Collection by Becca Feeken. The half slimline die looks like an arch that is perfect for the flowers to nestle beneath it. The Amazing Paper Grace Layered Lilies Etched Dies from the Layered Fleur Bouquet Slimlines Collection by Becca Feeken are so easy to make and I have coloured them in my favourite pink and yellow combination.

Projects for today’s post were used with dies provided by Amazing Paper Grace.

My Projects for Today

For my card I have created a base with layers of Snowdrift cardstock and gold metallic cardstock – with the top Snowdrift layer being embossed. I have adhered the gold decorative half slimline die behind the Snowdift half slimline die for a touch of elegance and then trimmed two Snowdrift and gold Half Slimline dies to fit onto the front of the card. I have added extra texture with the centre oval from the Amazing Paper Grace A2 Radiant Navette Etched Dies from the Classically Becca Collection by Becca Feeken in the centre of the card.

To finish I have added an elegant sentiment from the Amazing Paper Grace Elegant Occasion Sentiments Glorious Glimmer Hot Foil Classic Plates by Becca Feeken and a satin ribbon bow at the base of the card.

Black and gold make a vibrant and stunning background to the gorgeous Wild Poppy Collection by Heartfelt Creations. And I love that the new French Courtyard die – I don’t have to find a place for a sentiment!! I had a lot of fun watercolouring the images on this card with watercolours rather than my usual Zig Clean Colour Real Brush Markers.

For more details of the products I have used please visit here.

Today’s project was created with products provided by Heartfelt Creations.

Instructions:
