Amazing Paper Grace December Die of the Month Blog Hop – Enchanting Pocket Card, Tag and Envelope

 The Enchanting Pocket Card, Tag and Envelope set has many different options to make your creations stand out! It is a sweet gift card-sized envelope that doubles as a card front pocket. The bonus is that there is a tag too that doubles as a label. The inspiration for this set comes from Becca’s love of giving gift cards! It can be used year-round, dressed up or dressed down, and themed for any occasion. Using the different inlay and insert designs, you can cut and make unique variations to keep the design fresh!

 

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

There are 14 dies included in the Enchanting Pocket Card, Tag and Envelope.

My Project Today using Enchanting Pocket Card, Tag and Envelope.

I made this card and topped it with the oval that I die cut with S5-474 Flutted Classics Ovals

The flowers I made from a glittered cardstock and ensambled them with the flowers from the same paper as the cardbase.

the sentiment is a SDS 169-Just a Note Sentiments Stamps

My second project is this cute box

It's perfect for filling with the sweets or something like that.

It's easy to make with the 2 die cut parts of the set.

I used the same oval die here too.

Amazing Paper Grace May Die of the Month Blog Hop – Mini 3D Vignette Garden Gate

 

You can tell that around here, we adore spring and the prospect of blooming flowers. This month we invite you to take an idyllic stroll to a place of beauty. It calls and beckons to you, to come and sit down and enjoy your surroundings and all of the nature around you. Today I'm introducing a beautiful new Amazing Paper Grace Die of the Month.  The way in . . . is through the Garden Gate. Introducing the beautiful new Amazing Paper Grace Die of the Month for May 2021, Mini 3D Vignette Garden Gate.

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

This A7 showpiece folds flat into an envelope, only to expand and sit on a desktop where it invites the lucky recipient to take a stroll through the Garden Gate. As always, this die is meant to break apart and use the dies separately.  The elements are less than 4" wide and are begging you to use them on an A2 card. You'll love the charming details - hinges, a hook lock and a swinging sign to record your message.

Here are some ideas that might inspire you to create a flat card or box:

1.  The picket fence for a gatefold card (hint the gate really opens).
2.  The Arches for a wedding.
3.  The flowers and vines are curved to fit the arch but also make a wreath.
4.  A picket fence box and the arches for handles.

Inviting you to plan your own garden and know you are in a place of peace and beauty when you come in through the Garden Gate.

There are 15 dies included in the Mini 3D Vignette Garden Gate.

My Project Today using Mini 3D Vignette Garden Gate is this detailed card

I enjoyed layering the small tiny flowers, it reminds me the garden in May - June.

I also made a small gift box

and embellished the top cover too

I found it easy to die cut the tiny flowers at once using 2 pieces of not heavy cardstock  - it can save your time

Introducing the Amazing Paper Grace | Stained Glass Bouquet

 It's a miracle that little painted shards of glass can come together to create such beauty!!  The intriguing lure of Stained Glass has inspired artisans from around the world to try their hand at shuffling colors and shuffling shards of glass to create something lovely to gaze upon.  Today we are introducing the newest Amazing Paper Grace collection called Stained Glass Floral Bouquet, created for Spellbinders.

 

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

 

Stained Glass Floral Bouquet Inspiration

 

Becca says that the inspiration for the collection came from her love of stained glass and never being able to muster the time to do it with real glass.  Who says you can't have your cake and eat it too?  Now it's easy to create with paper!  It's amazing how you can give the same outline to a hand full of different artists and each will come up with a totally different look.

 

Stained Glass Floral Bouquet Collection

 

The Stained Glass Floral Bouquet Collection is made up of 7 different die sets.  They are sized for layering and include small designs all the way up to A7 designs with different frames that can make both A2 and A7 designs.  The collection boasts shadow dies for each set so that whenever you don't want a multicolor design, you can layer your "die-cut leading" onto one color.  The hallmark of the collection is a sweet stained glass flower and shadow in almost every set.  That gives you a background die and a central motif for each set.  

 

Attention "technique junkies" this collection is sweetly serenading you to try your favorite technique with the leading and the shards. 

 

     Here are ours:

1. Fill each opening with a different color paper and add Glossy Accents.
2. Ink on a hombre background before resetting your shards.
3. Add a smidge of color in each opening with a Copic Marker.
4. Use a different color leading - white, black, gold, silver.
5. Build up tall leading with 4 layers and adhesive in between each.

My projects for today

 this colorful card made with S4-1103 Fan Flower Transom

I decided to make layering, and played with different colors.

Also since the collection reminds the stained glass I applied mod podge on some areas, you can also use Glossy to reach a mosaic look.

It adds the dimension and really reminds me about some lolly pops.

For my sentiment I used GLP 218 - Heart Melt Sentiments 

My second project with this die is this gift box that I decorated with the dies and applied mod podge too.

I used the same colors and placed the die cuts in a straight line.

Becca Feeken of Amazing Paper Grace sent me these wonderful dies to create with.

Sweet hearts and petite envelopes are a symbol of love.  The Amazing Paper Grace Mini 3D Vignette Valentines Mailbox harkens back to the days where you thought that the number of envelopes measured how loved you were.  No worries, this elegant mailbox holds a bouquet of enveloped surprises and is a clever way to hide some cute little messages.  Oh, and the front of the mailbox opens!  Becca uses the inspiration from a vintage mailbox as the basis for this elegant representation where romantic and cute go hand in hand.

Don't worry if you don't have a sweetheart this year.  After the holiday, this set can be used as a blue mailbox.  Did you notice it is a mini-sized 3D Vignette?! Built just like the grand sized vignettes that came before it, this little mini stands 4.75-inches tall and folds flat for mailing to your sweetheart!

There are 17 dies included in the Mini 3D Vignette Valentines Mailbox

My Project Today using Mini 3D Vignette Valentines Mailbox is :

I chose silver and dark blue for my Mailbox, and I love how it turned out. I also like the 3 sizes of hearts, you can easily use it for any other project too.

As well as the mailbox frame, that I die cut in 2 ways to create this simple but elegant card

so with this die set you can have about 3 kind of frames, gates, windows - there are many possibilities for this die , no doubt.

I embellished a few of filigre with the rhinestones.

Amazing Paper Grace December Die of the Month Blog Hop – Rose Garden Promise

 

Today I am introducing the Amazing Paper Grace Die of the Month for December 2020, Rose Garden Promise.  

Becca Feeken of Amazing Paper Grace sent me these beautiful dies to create with.

Becca shares her inspiration for this 5x7-inch frame-worthy card front that resembles the look of stained glass.  She says, " 'God gave us memory so that we might have roses in December,' a quote by James M Barrie. It is precisely that quote that inspired me to think of roses at the end of the year. It has much to do with the promise of an approaching spring, buds bursting forward, and the gift of hope.  As one who loves rituals, I finished off 2019 with a die template that featured roses and decided it was worthwhile to pay them homage at the end of 2020." 

Isn't it only fitting to go forward with hope for the future and for new and worthwhile things that will break through.  From the entire Amazing Paper Grace Creative Team, let this be a beautiful end to your year; we hope that through making, it brings with it the bonus of lovely memories.  

   

We want to inspire you with different combinations using the December Die of the Month, Rose Garden Promise etched die. These are a few of our ideas!

1. Stained Glass
2. Wedding Card
3. Shaker Card
4. Anniversary Card
5. Window Card
6. Valentine's Day Card

 

I bet you can come up with a few, share them in a comment!

There are 4 ( four) dies included in the Rose garden Promise.

 My project for today is this Thankful Card.

I die cut 3 cardstock - silver, silver mirror and a white one.

I put the silver cardstock as a base , and then cut out separate pieces  ( white leaves) and silver mirror part- that I layered on the top of the silver base.

It seems that the card is flat at first sight however when you see the details you note that it have many layers, like this unexpected effect.

I also made a shaker using Garden Promise Rose for my gift box

I thought it's great when the cover of the box is translucent and you can play with the inner part so that it determines the full look.

I filled the shaker with sequins of 3 different color and just love the sound and the shimmer they produce.

Supplies for the card:

Paper: Maja Design - Enjoying Outdoors Collection
Cardstock: Silevr Mirror - Tonic Stdio

Stamp : Kaisercraft

Inks: Ranger

Accessories:  Amazing Paper Grace December 2020 Die of the Month -  Rose Garden Promise

Supplies:

Paper: My Mind's Eye  - Bloom
Sequins
Accessories:  Amazing Paper Grace December 2020 Die of the Month -  Rose Garden Promise
