Amazing Paper Grace Fall Label Motifs

We are in the middle of summer in New Zealand but Autumn (or Fall) is not far away with beautiful autumn foliage and the harvest of the summer with acorns, berries and pumpkins. Today I am sharing a card made with the beautiful Amazing Paper Grace Fall Label Motifs Etched Dies by Becca Feeken. Once again Becca shows an impeccable eye for detail in the gorgeous leaves, berries, pumpkins and acorns. This card reminds me of walking through all the fallen leaves in autumn and watching my cat dancing trying the catch the leaves floating in the air. I smell the scent of fires burning and feel the cold chill in the air knowing that colder weather is coming.

Dies were provided by Amazing Paper Grace for today’s creations.

My Project:

I have created a 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ card base and added a layer of gold cardstock. I have added another layer 1/8″ smaller from white cardstock to the front. I have then added an older Amazing Paper Grace die – Callista Rectangle Shadow Box Die by Becca Feeken to create a pretty texture to the background of the motif. I have die cut the outer label in gold cardstock and two inner decorative motifs in gold and white cardstock. The white decorative motif has been added over the gold decorative motif and slightly offset to allow a glint of gold. I have added the decorative layer to a white background and then added this to the gold motif and added it to the front of the card.

For the leaves and pumpkin motif embellishments I have die cut them out of coloured cardstock and then coloured them with Distress Oxide inks. Because the finish on the leaves looked chalky I added some 3D Crystal Lacquer to them to make them look like they have been caught in autumn rains. I added 3D Crystal Lacquer to the berries to give more dimension.

I stamped the sentiment from the Amazing Paper Grace Seasonal Motif Sentiments Clear Stamp Set from Seasonal Label Motifs Collection by Becca Feeken in black ink on some scrap paper and die cut it out with the sentiment strip die from the Amazing Paper Grace All Occasions Sentiments Etched Dies by Becca Feeken and adhered it to the right of the leaves as shown.

To finish I have added some gold gems.

The orange leaves have been coloured with Mowed Lawn and Spiced Marmalade inks.

The orange pumpkin has been coloured with Mowed Lawn at the base and the rest with Spiced Marmalade. The green at the top of the pumpkin was coloured with Spiced Marmalade and Mowed Lawn at the top of the tendril.

The green leaves have been coloured with Spiced Marmalade and Mowed Lawn.

Amazing Paper Grace 3D Vignette Retro TV

I have another bright and cheerful card to share with you today with a real groovy feel. My card today showcases the fabulous Amazing Paper Grace 3D Retro TV Vignette Etched Dies by Becca Feeken from the Amazing Paper Grace 3D Vignettes Collection by Becca Feeken. I love the attention to detail with this set and it reminds me of the television in the movie Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (the original movie with Gene Wilder) where the little boy gets pulled into the television. This set is just so the 60’s and because I already had the flowers made this card came together very quickly which is always a bonus!

Dies were provided by Amazing Paper Grace for today’s creations.

My Project:

My card base is 4 14″ x 5 1/2″ and have used the gorgeous Amazing Paper Grace Filigree Marquis Etched Dies by Becca Feeken as a background for the Amazing Paper Grace 3D Retro TV Vignette Etched Dies by Becca Feeken to sit on top. I have created a shaker element for the screen to add interest to the retro television. To finish the card I have added some handcrafted flowers from the Amazing Paper Grace Cinch and Go IV Flower Etched Dies and the leaves are from the Amazing Paper Grace Petite Floral Potpourri Etched Dies by Becca Feeken. The sentiment is from the Amazing Paper Grace 3D Retro TV Vignette Etched Dies by Becca Feeken.

Amazing Paper Grace Sweet Home Quilt Congrats Mini Slimline Card

Happy New Year!

The new Amazing Paper Grace The Home Sweet Quilt Collection is just stunning with so many different combinations to make gorgeous cards. Quilting is one of the few crafts I never really got into as I struggled with sewing large volumes of fabric. But with the Amazing Paper Grace The Home Sweet Quilt Collection it is so easy to create paper quilts with a lot less stress and mess!! Today I am using the French Braid dies from the Amazing Paper Grace French Braid and Hexagon Panels Etched Dies to create a mini-slimline card.

Dies were provided by Amazing Paper Grace for today’s creations.

My Project

For my card today I have used the Amazing Paper Grace French Braid and Hexagon Panels Etched Diesto create a mini-slimline card. I have created a background of white, blue and silver layers to make the base for the paper ‘quilt’. I die cut three ‘quilts’ using the decorative die and the outline die – two from blue cardstock and one from silver cardstock. I then die cut the white background using the outer die from the set to which I added the silver outline die. I inlaid blue pieces to the outside of the quilt and silver squares down the centre of the ‘quilt’. I then added the blue outline die to the ‘quilt’ but upside down to create a plaid pattern.

To decorate the ‘quilt’ I have made some daisies using the Amazing Paper Grace Cinch and Go V flower dies. The filler flowers have been made using the Amazing Paper Grace Petite Floral Potpourri Etched Dies and the leaves are from the Amazing Paper Grace Layered Lilies Etched Dies.

To complete the card I have used the ‘Congrats’ die from the Amazing Paper Grace Die of the Month March 2020 Elegant Infinity and the butterfly is from the Amazing Paper Grace Butterfly Bliss Garden Shutters 5 x 7″ Card Base Etched Dies.

I have added some glitter to the flowers using clear gloss gel medium and a paintbrush for some extra sparkle.

The sentiment has been die cut twice – one from silver cardstock and one from blue cardstock. These have been stacked together with the silver on top.

Amazing Paper Grace June 2022 Die of the Month

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 Flowers With Love

Kia Ora Kouto

Today I have another card featuring the beautiful Amazing Paper Grace A2 Filigree Marquis Etched Dies from the Classically Becca Collection by Becca Feeken. I have been inspired by my Amazing Paper Grace Creative Team mate Rajni Chawla and how she snips decorative dies to create beautiful cards with lots of different layers. For my card I have used the inner decorative medallion die and created layers by snipping one die in half and and layering them behind the main medallion to fit a 5″ x 7″ card.

Today’s project was created with dies provided by Amazing Paper Grace.

The flowers are created using the Amazing Paper Grace Cinch and Go Blossoms Etched Dies from the Classically Becca Collection by Becca Feeken.

The sentiment is from the Amazing Paper Grace With Love Regalia Card Builder Etched Dies from the Classically Becca Collection by Becca Feeken. This sentiment is so versatile and can be used for so many different occasions – birthday, wedding, sympathy and more.

The butterflies are from the Amazing Paper Grace Butterfly Bliss Garden Shutters 5 x 7″ Card Base Etched Dies from the Garden Shutters Collection by Becca Feeken. They are such a sweet addition to any card.

The green leaves are from the Amazing Paper Grace Candlewick Rosebud Flowers Etched Dies by Becca Feeken. These leaves are so beautiful to use and the green really makes the pink flowers pop. The silver leaves are from the Amazing Paper Grace Cinch and Go III Etched Dies by Becca Feeken and make a great accent for this card.

To complete my card I have used a gorgeous embossing folder by Spellbinders – Diamond Plaid embossing folder.

Amazing Paper Grace Autumn Flowers

Kia Ora Koutou

I often take my inspiration from nature and yesterday I went out walking with my cat and saw some beautiful white hellebores growing in a vacant lot. It is now autumn here in New Zealand and the colours are changing and these flowers really popped. I took lots of photos as you do and thought that I would have a go and making some with the Amazing Paper Grace Grand Cinch and Go Flowers Etched Dies from Make a Scene Collection by Becca Feeken. I was pleasantly surprised at how these have turned out.

Today’s project was created with dies provided by Amazing Paper Grace.

For my leaves I have used the Amazing Paper Grace Sweet Cottage Flowers Etched Dies 3D Vignette Mini Album Collection by Becca Feeken and I have used the Amazing Paper Grace Cinch and Go Blossoms Etched Dies from the Classically Becca Collection by Becca Feeken on the bottoms of the flowers to allow them to sit easily when I glued them on to the base card.

I love layering dies from different Amazing Paper Grace collections to create my base cards. For this card I have used the Amazing Paper Grace Fluted Classics Slimline Etched Dies from the Fluted Classics Collection by Becca Feeken, Amazing Paper Grace A2 Radiant Navette Etched Dies from the Classically Becca Collection by Becca Feeken and the Amazing Paper Grace Scalloped Symphony Notecard Etched Dies from Sweet Serenade Notecards Collection by Becca Feeken to create the base for the flowers. I have used a pretty floral embossing folder from Spellbinders to add some interest – Slimline Flora Embossing Folder from the Slimline Collection.

To complete my card I have used the sentiment die from the Amazing Paper Grace Picture Perfect Window Scene Etched Dies from Make a Scene Collection by Becca Feeken which fitted in well with the decorative circle die with the hearts in them. I finished with a little butterfly in the same colours as the card from the Amazing Paper Grace Butterfly Bliss Garden Shutters 5 x 7″ Card Base Etched Dies from the Garden Shutters Collection by Becca Feeken.
