A Seaside Wedding Card

On By patriciamanhireIn Patricia's Creations2 Comments

Kia ora Kotou

I was recently asked to make a wedding card for my husband’s colleague and the brief was the couple loved the beach and ocean so I immediately thought of the Heartfelt Sea Breeze collection and after that the card came together very quickly. I have added a bridal arch and birds from Marianne Designs and the wedding couple is from Creative Expressions. I had already made the flowers using the Heartfelt Creations Wild Rose dies and the colour was perfect for the card. And I also saved a lot of time die cutting the images from the paper collection.

My Project

I have created a side folding 5″ x 7″ card from white cardstock for my card base. I then layered gold cardstock and patterned paper for the base for the embellishments. I made sure to measure the top layer so that the boat was visible in the centre of the bridal arch.

I die cut a fence from the paper collection and trimmed it in half placing the halves on the sides of the card. I then die cut some grass from the paper collection and added over the fence on the right side.

I die cut two bridal arches – one from gold cardstock and one from white cardstock. I adhered the gold die behind the white die and offset it lightly for a glimpse of gold. The arch was then added to the front of the card with foam strips.

I die cut two wedding couple dies – one from black cardstock and one from white cardstock. I then embossed the die on some pearlised cardstock and cut around the embossed edge. I added the white die cut over this and trimmed the black die to add the male figure to the die. This was then added to the front of the bridal arch with foam squares.

I die cut the bird on the marker image from the paper collection and then die cut a separate die from plain cardstock. I adhered the coloured image to the plain die and then added it to the bottom left of the card with foam tape.

To complete the background I die cut the birds from the paper collection and trimmed them and added them around the base of the card.

I die cut the flowers using the Small and Large Wild Rose dies from watercolour paper. I coloured them with Pink Peony, Sunflower, Peachy Keen inks, wet them and shaped them with the coordinating molds. When dry I assembled them and added some stamens through the centres and added them to the top right of the card. The leaves were coloured with Pink Peony, Vivid Chartreuse and Leaf Green inks and also shaped using the coordinating mold and were then added around the roses.

To finish I added some glitter to the sea and some die cut birds from the paper collection.

Amazing Paper Grace Happily Ever After

Kia ora Koutou

I have another timeless and elegant wedding card for you today. While I love making elaborate cards with handmade flowers, sometimes it is quite refreshing to make a quick and easy card using just a few dies. The Amazing Paper Grace Layered Happily Ever After Dies from the 3D Vignette Collection by Becca Feeken had just what I needed for a card and all I needed to complete the card was just three other die sets (listed below the photos) also from Amazing Paper Grace. This card looks amazing in real life and it only took about an hour to complete.

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

My Project

I have made a 4 3/4″ x 6″ top folding card base out of white cardstock and I added a layer of ivory cardstock to the front of the card. I die cut a large rectangle from the Amazing Paper Grace Picot Petite Rectangle dies out of gold cardstock and added it to the front of the card. I cut a piece of pearl ivory embossed paper from my stash to fit the inside of the decorative frame.

I die cut two large label dies from the Amazing Paper Grace Francesca Labels dies – one from ivory and one from gold cardstock. I cut the gold label in half and added it behind the ivory label offsetting the top and bottom of the label for a hint of gold. This was then added to the front of the card.

I die cut the wedding couple using the edge and wedding couple die from the Amazing Paper Grace Layered Happily Ever After Dies out of gold cardstock. I then die cut three die cuts using the Happily Ever After die and border die out of ivory cardstock. I stacked the three dies together and then adhered these over the gold wedding couple die. I die cut another label from the Francesa Labels die out of vellum and adhered the decorative dies to the label. I then added the vellum label with the decorative dies to the other labels on the front of the card just by adding glue behind the die cuts.

I made a bow from the Amazing Paper Grace Petite Double Bow and Flowers Die set from ivory cardstock and adhered it to the base of the decorative dies. I die cut the flowers from the ivory cardstock and added them around the bow.

To finish I added gold pearls to the centre of the flowers and a large one at the top on the label.

An Amazing Paper Grace Romantic Wedding Card

On By patriciamanhireIn Patricia's Creations2 Comments

Kia ora Koutou

Today I am channeling my inner Becca Feeken with a beautiful wedding card made by layering gorgeous Amazing Paper Grace dies. I have always been a big fan of Becca’s designs and how she has used different dies together and added gold accents and this card has been inspired by one of her designs using the Amazing Paper Grace Hannah Elise Layering Frame dies from the Chantilly Lace collection. I have added a decorative tone on tone background to the card with the Amazing Paper Grace Die of the Month September 2020 Lattice Quadrangle and then added a pretty romantic rose, a pearl encrusted bow, some foliage, a sentiment from the Amazing Paper Grace All Occasions Sentiments and lots of pearls to finish with a stunning wedding card that is a gift in itself. I also wanted the floral embellishments to look like a rose with seed pearl decorations adorning the bride’s hair and to me I feel I have achieved this.

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

My Project

I have made a top folding 6″ x 6″ card base out of white cardstock. I layered gold and cream cardstock to the front to make the base for the embellishments. I die cut two decorative background dies from the Amazing Paper Grace Die of the Month September 2020 out of cream cardstock, adhered them together and then added it to the front of the card.

I die cut a base from cream cardstock and two decorative dies using the Amazing Paper Grace Hannah Elise Layering Frame dies – one from gold cardstock and one from cream cardstock. I stacked these together and added the decorative frame to the cream base using foam strips. I added the gold centre decorative die to the inside of the frame.

I die cut two frames from the Amazing Paper Grace All Occasions Sentiments – one from gold and one from cream cardstocks. I trimmed the gold die down the centre lengthways and adhered both sides behind the cream die ensuring the gold is slightly offset behind the cream die. I then adhered this to the centre of the gold decorative frame. I stamped the sentiment from the Amazing Paper Grace All Occasions Sentiments in Wow embossing ink and heat embossed with gold embossing powder. I then die cut the sentiment out using the small rectangle die from the Amazing Paper Grace All Occasions Sentiments. This was matted with gold cardstock and adhered to the front of the sentiment frame.

I die cut the dies from the Amazing Paper Grace Petite Double Bow and Flowers dies from cream cardstock and assembled the dies to create a bow. I added pearls to the centre of the bow and then added the bow to the top of the sentiment die.

I die cut, coloured, shaped and assembled a single rose from the Amazing Paper Grace Candlewick Rosebud dies. I used Peachy Keen, Rosey Posey and Magenta Hues to colour the rose. I die cut two leaves from the same die set and adhered them to the bottom of the sentiment die as shown. I then adhered the rose over the leaves in the centre.

I die cut several small sprays from the Amazing Paper Grace Fall Label Motifs Dies out of gold cardstock. I added small pearls to some of the sprays and added them around the green leaves along with some plain gold sprays.

To finish I added some pearls to the corners and on the dies as shown.

Honey Bee Stamps: Lovely Layers – Wedding Bells

On By patriciamanhireIn Patricia's CreationsLeave a comment

Kia ora Koutou

I have just purchased the beautiful Honey Bee Stamps: Layering Holiday Bells Honey Cuts and started off making a white and gold Christmas card. But I ended up going in a totally different direction in the end and made a wedding card with a bouquet of Honey Bee Stamps Lovely Layers flowers and leaves. Even though it looks totally different from what I initially imagined I am very happy with the results and I hope you like it too.

My Project.

For my card I have made a top folding 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ card base out of white cardstock. I cut a piece of gold card 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ and added it to the front of the card. I die cut a Delicate Daisy Cover Plate Base and Top out of white cardstock and layered them together before adding them to the front of the card.

I die cut an oval using the Amaizng Paper Grace Elegant Twist Oval dies out of gold cardstock and then die cut one oval using the outer and inner decorative twist dies out of white cardstock and added it to the gold base. I then die cut two decorative twist oval frames out of white cardstock and added it to the base oval which was then added to the front of the card.

I die cut the bells from the Honey Bee Stamps: Layering Holiday Bells Honey Cuts out of white and gold cardstock. I assembled them and then added a gold bow out of the same set and added them to the the inside of the oval frame with foam tape.

I have die cut, coloured and assembled the flowers and leaves from the following dies: Lovely Layers – Dianthus (coloured yellow), rosebuds from the Roses dies – coloured blush and green, leaves and lavenders from the Spring Greenery dies and the gold leaves are from the Winter Greenery set. These were all layered around the top of the bells to ressemble a wedding bouquet. To add a little glamour and sparkle I have added some Wink of Stella to the flowers.

To finish my card I have stamped the sentiments from the Honey Bee Stamps Mini Messages stamp set in Wow embossing ink and heat embossed with gold embossing powder. I die cut the sentiments out using the coordinating die set and added them to the card using foam strips.

I then added some gold pearls around the sentiment.

Amazing Paper Grace Perfect Wedding Gift Box for Coordinating Card

On By patriciamanhireIn Patricia's CreationsLeave a comment

Kia ora Koutou

Today I am back with the coordinating box to the wedding card I made last week using Amazing Paper Grace Clipped Nested Squares by Amazing Paper Grace embellished with handcrafted flowers. Here is my previous post with all the details. I have kept to the basic dies and colour combination, but changed the design of the dies so as I could create an aperture to see the sentiment on the card inside the box. I am so happy at how my box and card combination has turned out and it will make a lovely gift for the bride and groom.

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

My Project

To make the box base I cut a piece of white cardstock 7 3/4″ x 7 3/4″ and scored down each side at 1″. I cut into one side of each corner and trimmed the tag before assembling the base of the box.

To make the box top I cut a piece of white cardstock 6 7/8″ x 6 7/8″ and scored down each side at 1/2″. I then used a centering ruler to work out the centre of the box top and used the lines to line up the clipped square die from the Amazing Paper Grace Clipped Nested Square dies to created the aperture. I then cut a piece of gold cardstock 5 1/2″ x 5 1/2″ and repeated this process to create the aperture. Finally I cut a piece of white cardstock 5 1/4″ x 5 1/4″ and cut the aperture using the same procedure. I cut a piece of acetate 5 1/4″ x 5 1/4″ and adhered it the front of the box top before layering the gold and white cardstock on top.

For the sentiment I hot foiled the ‘Congratulations’ sentiment from the Amazing Paper Grace Elegant Occasions Sentiments hot foil plates on white cardstock. I die cut this with the coordinating die as well as another plain die. These were stacked together and added to the base of the box top just below the window.

I die cut two frames using the Amazing Paper Grace Clipped Nested Squares using the two largest dies and two smaller dies and added them to the front of the card framing the aperture. I then added some gold corners using the corner dies from the Amazing Paper Grace Callista Rectangle Shadow Box Frame Dies. Once the front was decorated I finished assembling the box top in the same way as the box base.I

I made the roses from the Amazing Paper Grace Candlewick Rosebud dies which were coloured with Lemon Whip and Ballet Slippers for a soft romantic look. I then added some Cosmic Shimmer Luna Paste – Moonlight Gold to the edges to give the roses an antique shabby chic feel. The large leaves were from the Amazing Paper Grace Cinch and Go IV dies and were die cut from green cardstock. The leaves were also given some shine and glitter using the Luna Paste and were added around the roses. The small yellow and pink flowers were made using the dies from the Amazing Paper Grace Petite Floral Potpourri Dies. I coloured the yellow flowers with Lemon Whip ink and the pink flowers with Raspberry Bliss ink. The lighter green leaves were also from the Amazing Paper Grace Petite Floral Potpourri Dies set. These were added around the flowers and the aperture to create a pretty floral bouquet.

To finish my card I have made a butterfly from the Amazing Paper Grace Butterfly Bliss Garden Shutters dies out of vellum and gold cardstock. The vellum was coloured with Saltwater Taffy Distress Oxide ink and worked in perfectly with the antique-look roses.

I do have a video tutorial coming but I have been having some computer issues. I will add this once I have finished the editing and uploaded it to YouTube.

Amazing Paper Grace Perfect Marriage

On By patriciamanhireIn Patricia's Creations1 Comment

Kia ora Koutou

I have a wedding to go to coming up in about three weeks and I thought I would get in early and make a card for the bride and groom. (I am normally leaving everything to the last minute lol). I decided to go with a white and gold theme using the Amazing Paper Grace Clipped Nested Squares as a base for more handcrafted flowers. The sentiment from the Amazing Paper Grace Beautiful Inside and Out Sentiments Stamp set is just perfect for a wedding card (pun intended) and I have used Amazing Paper Grace Candlewick Rosebud and Petite Floral Potpourri dies to created my flowers. I will make a box to coordinate with this card to make it extra special.

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

My Project

To make my card I have created a top folding 5 1/2″ x 5 1/2″ base card out of white cardstock. I then added a 5 1/2″ x 5 1/2″ gold card to the front of the card. I cut a piece of white cardstock 5 1/4″ x 5 1/4″ and scored along all sides at 1/4″ and 3/8″ to create a frame. This was then added to the front of the gold cardstock. I then die cut two large clipped nested squares out of white cardstock and embossed them with the Amazing Paper Grace Orange Peel Embossing Folder. I die cut two large gold frames using the two largest dies from the clipped nested Squares dies and then adhered them over the front of the card overlapping in the middle. I then used the inside nested square from one of the larger gold frames and added it to the centre of the overlapped clipped nested square panels. I die cut a smaller clipped square out of white cardstock and after stamping the sentiment from the Amazing Paper Grace Beautiful Inside and Out Sentiments Stamp set with Jet Black ink in the centre, I adhered it to the front of the gold nested square. I die cut four frames using the next two size down clipped nested squares – three out of white cardstock and one from gold cardstock. These were stacked together and witht the gold die on top. This was then added to the front clipped square panel framing the sentiment.

I then die cut the corner dies from the Amazing Paper Grace Callista Rectangle Shadow Box Frame Dies out of gold cardstock and added them to the corners to finish the frame.

I made the roses from the Amazing Paper Grace Candlewick Rosebud dies which were coloured with Lemon Whip and Ballet Slippers for a soft romantic look. I then added some Cosmic Shimmer Luna Paste – Moonlight Gold to the edges to give the roses an antique shabby chic feel. The large leaves were from the Amazing Paper Grace Cinch and Go IV dies and were die cut from green cardstock. The leaves were also given some shine and glitter using the Luna Paste and were added around the roses. The small yellow and pink flowers were made using the dies from the Amazing Paper Grace Petite Floral Potpourri Dies. I coloured the yellow flowers with Lemon Whip ink and the pink flowers with Raspberry Bliss ink. The lighter green leaves were also from the Amazing Paper Grace Petite Floral Potpourri Dies set. These were added around the flowers and the nested square dies to create a pretty floral bouquet.

To finish my card I have made a butterfly from the Amazing Paper Grace Butterfly Bliss Garden Shutters dies out of vellum and gold cardstock. The vellum was coloured with Saltwater Taffy Distress Oxide ink and worked in perfectly with the antique-look roses.

Amazing Paper Grace Camellia Congratulations

On By patriciamanhireIn Patricia's Creations2 Comments

I often take a lot of inspiration for my flowers and cards from nature and today’s card is no exception. We are in the midst of winter here in New Zealand and it is so lovely to see the gorgeous pops of colour from camellias in the gardens. I often take my phone out with me when I go on my walk with my cat in the mornings. This sweet camellia took my eye and it inspired my flowers today. I am not really a gardener and I am unsure of the camellia’s name but it is a very pretty little flower with just a hint of pink in it’s petals with dark green leaves to set them off. I have used the Amazing Paper Grace Candlewick Rosebud dies to create these flowers and they were so quick and easy to make and the branch from the Amazing Paper Grace Layered Cherry Blossoms was perfect to go with the leaves and flowers. And of course I cannot forget the stunning Amazing Paper Grace Picot Petite Collection that I have used to create a very decorative base for this card.

Here is a photo I took of these flowers.

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

My Project

I have created a 5 1/2″ x 5 1/2″ card base and layered gold and white cardstock to create the base for the decorative dies. I have die cut the base from the Amazing Paper Grace Filigree Quartet dies and then die cut the four decorative panels out of gold and white cardstock. I have adhered the white panels over the gold cardstock and slightly overlapped the for a hint of gold. These were adhered over the base and then added to the front of the card. I die cut two small circles from the Amazing Paper Grace Round Picot Petite Dies – one from white cardstock and one from gold cardstock. These were adhered together with the gold under the white circle slightly offset again and I have adhered them to the front of the card. I made the branches using the branch dies from the Amazing Paper Grace Layered Cherry dies and coloured them with copic markers I added them to the card front and then added the foiled sentiment from the Amazing Paper Grace Elegant Occasions Sentiments Hot Foil Plate.

To make the flowers I have used the flower dies from the Amazing Paper Grace Candlewick Rosebud dies and added them to the branches. To make the buds I have used small pointed styrofoam buds to create the shape and added the sepals from the Amazing Paper Grace Cinch and Go III flower dies. These were added on the branches as well. The leaves have been die cut out of green cardstock using the leaf dies from the Amazing Paper Grace Candlewick Rosebud dies. I have added 3D Crytal Lacquer to the leaves to make them shiny like the camellia leaves and these were trimmed and added to the branches around the flowers.

To finish the card I have added a butterfly from the Amazing Paper Grace Butterfly Bliss Garden Shutter Dies made out of vellum and gold cardstock and some pink gems.

There are 12 dies included in the Bella Ovalette.

I have added the bride and groom, gazebo and sentiment from the Amazing Paper Grace Wedded Bliss Scene Etched Dies from Make a Scene Collection by Becca Feeken using holographic paper for some fun and sparkle.

I have stacked the sentiment and gazebo for more depth and dimension to help them stand out.

The flowers are soft and pastel to allow the decorative dies to shine!

I have kept the gift card simple and added some flowers and a gorgeous sentiment.

To complete my ensemble I have added pearls to the decorative dies.
