New Inspiration from Divinity Designs LLC April Blessings Box!

Hi, everyone! Today I will be sharing more samples from the April Blessings Box! These products have been super fun to work with and I know I will use them over and over even after the next Blessings Box is revealed! Check out all of the details and more samples HERE! 

 

My first sample for today features a gorgeous pattern from the Cottage Garden A2 Card Fronts, along with the Peony Dies, Fence Die, Long and Lean Letters Dies, Pierced Rectangles Dies, Matting Rectangle Die, A2 Portrait Card Base with Layer Dies. The letters were cut from the designer paper then cut three more times from cardstock in order to give the Eclipse look.  The bottom layer of each peony die-cut was colored with a blending brush with the white layer on top, adhered with adhesive sheets (much easier than glue!)

 

Next up is a get well card created for a friend's mother who is going through chemo. The sentiment from 'Birthday Wishes' was stamped on vellum (adhered with an adhesive sheet) so that the beautiful background would show through. The designer papers shown are from the Shabby Chic Rose Bookmarks, framed with the A2 Pierced Multi Windows Die. 

 

Next is a birthday card created for my niece.  I love the metallic features in all of the stained glass paper packs since I am obsessed with Foil Cardstock!  This gorgeous pattern from the Stained Glass Roses A2 Card Fronts pairs perfectly with gold foil cardstock and the Rose Dies set.  The bottom layer of the roses was water-colored with metallic shimmer paints, though the camera did not pick up the sparkle.  The sentiment from 'Birthday Wishes' was stamped on vellum and adhered with an adhesive sheet.  Other dies used: Scalloped Ovals, Ovals, Pierced Rectangles, Matting Rectangle, A2 Landscape Card Base with Layer.

 

My next sample was mailed to a friend for her birthday.  The paper from the Cottage Garden A2 Card Fronts is so gorgeous that I hate to cover it up, which is why I have been using a lot of vellum. The sentiment from 'Birthday Wishes' was stamped on vellum, layered onto an adhesive sheet, cut out with the insert die from the Ornamental Oval Set Dies, and adhered to the floral paper. The frame die of this set was cut with lavender foil cardstock and popped up with Foam Mounting Tape.  The tiny hearts were cut with the Clouds and Raindrops Dies.  Other dies used: Matting Rectangle and A2 Portrait Card Base with Layer.

 

Last but not least, here is a set of bookmarks created with one of the Add-On bookmark paper packs, the Rose Bookmarks Paper Pad and the Bookmark Trio Dies.  

On the back are scripture verses from the Bookmark Scriptures 2 stamp set.  The scriptures were stamped onto vellum, adhered to the pink cardstock with Adhesive Sheets, then die cut with the bookmark die.  I like the soft,  frosty look of vellum on cardstock, which is why I did not just stamp directly onto the cardstock.

 

Thanks so much for visiting with me today!

Blessings,

 

 

Divinity Designs LLC June New Release

Hi, everyone!  The months are flying by and it's time for the JUNE release! Check out all of the new goodies plus awesome samples HERE on the website or HERE on Instagram.  Enjoy!

For my first sample, I chose a pretty pattern from the Ephemera Letters A2 Card Fronts Paper Pad, then cut the sections with the Leafy Edged Borders Dies and Pierced Rectangles Dies. The pieces were adhered to a Matting Rectangle cut from ivory.  The sentiment was cut with the new Happy Birthday And Layers 2 Dies, with an extra cut layer for more dimension.  Other items used: A2 Portrait Card Base with Layer Dies, Butterfly Layering Combo 3 Dies, Blending Brushes, Foam Mounting Tape, and Adhesive Sheets (to adhere the word die cuts together easily.)

For my second sample, I began by using a Pierced Rectangles Die to cut a panel from the Woodland Wonderland Paper/Die Duo pack, used Blending Brushes to create subtle clouds and grass, then added the die cut critters and sentiments from the paper pack.  Super easy and quick since all of the images cut out at the same time! Other items used: Matting Rectangle Die, Clouds and Raindrops Die (for a stencil), A2 Portrait Card Base with Layer, Foam Mounting Tape.

For my third sample, I chose my favorite pattern from the Beautiful Bouquets A2 Card Fronts paper pack to die cut with the Fractured Quilt Landscape Die set.  I used an adhesive sheet to adhere the strips in place. The sentiment and layers were cut from the Special Someone Dies set. Other items used: Matting Rectangle Die, A2 Landscape Card Base with Layer, Foam Mounting Tape, and Blending Brushes. 

Thanks for stopping by!

Blessings,
