Heart Card


 

Hello, crafty friends!

Here is a heart card, made of the HAPPY HEARTS TREAT BOX.

What you will need:
cardstock in the color of your choice. I decided on two different shades of blue and white
ink (blue)
embossing powder (QF Modern Guilding Powder Diamond Glass)
HAPPY HEARTS TREAT BOX

I cut the hearts and used the negative as a stencil to create the background.




To add a little extra, I embossed one heart with Diamond Glass :-)


Have a happy week! You are halfway through it already!

QFD BIRTHDAY CIRCLE MONOGRAM FONT

 


Hello, everybody!

My friend´s son is turning one these days and I wanted to make a special card for him. So I used the QFD Birthday Circle Monogram Font to write the word "EINS" (one) on the front. 

You can find the card here:

You do not need a digital cutting machine to use the fonts. They work just fine with any texture program (like eg. Word).

the numbers printed out

Have a wonderful week :-)

DINOSAUR COOKIE BOX

 

Hello, crafty friends or should I say "ROAAAAR" :-)

My nephew is all into dinosaurs. The bigger the better :-) So I made him this Dinosaur Box and filled it with a little toy and sweets.

You can find the digital file here:

all cut

I added panels (clear) so the sweets stay where they are supposed to.

The cookie box is a fast and easy project. It is just cut, fold and glue - and voilá you have a box :-)

Happy creating,

QFD Simple Charm Font

 


Hello again, crafty friends!

Did you see the new QFD Simple Charm Monogram Font? I love it. When my daughter saw it, she wanted me to do her name as a decoration for her room.

You can find the digital file here:
QFD Simple Charm Font

all cut


Now simply decorate it the way you want :-)



I am pretty sure this would also look great on a card front. You could also use it as a "Welcome" sign on your front door.

Happy creating,
Kora

Happy Birthday Stencil Card

Hi Y'all!
Robyn here with a birthday card for almost anyone, and the front panel is also a stencil!
Created this card for a 90+ year young friend! 

Four easy pieces!

What you need to know is this is a lot of cutting.
Be patient.
If you are having difficulty getting a clean cut
  • Slow down the speed
  • Make sure the mat is clean and sticky enough to hold paper firmly
  • Use a clean brayer to firm down the paper before cutting and before removing the panel
  • Shorten the blade depth and make 2 cuts
Adhesive dot sheets make it easy to attach the busy panel

DIY Washi Tape

 



Hello, crafty friends!

I recently saw an easy method to make your own washi tapes. All you need is a motive (printed on paper), water, and masking tape (clear). 

I used several QFD Fonds - there are so many it is really hard to choose.

Print out your text or picture and put masking tape over it.


Then you put it into the water and wait a few minutes to soak.
Okay, first remove the cat from the water :-)



Take the tape out of the water and gently rub off the paper with your fingers. The ink sticks to the tape.



Wait for the tape to try - it becomes sticky again. Now you can use it anywhere you want.

Here are two examples:


Happy creating :-)
