Friends by Pam Bray

Hi! Pam here today sharing with you a fun stitching technique using your Handheld Essentials Tool Kit and some embroidery thread. Using the paper piercer from the tool kit, pierce through the paper and flags that were cut from patterned paper using Precision Scissors and use a straight stitch to sew through the pierced holes.

Here is a closer look. Remember to keep your thread straight as you stitch.

I embossed a strip of green Core'dinations cardstock using the Crazy Daisy Embossing Folder, sanded it with the Sanding Block, and added it to my layout with Double Sided Tape. I ran pink Core'dinations cardstock through my die-cutting machine using the Scallop Nesting Circles and then the Crazy Daisy Embossing Folder. I sanding the embossed circle with the Sanding Block and added some rhinestones to the flower centers to complete the layout. I hope you try adding stitiching to your paper!

Hugs, Pammejo

Thank You Card Set with Pam Bray

Hi! Pam here today sharing with you a fun, sweet Thank You card that is super easy to create. I embossed a piece of grey cardstock with the Cheerful Embossing Folder (Elegance Collection) and adhered it to a card base with Double-Sided Tape. I added a piece of square pink cardstock that I embossed with the Crazy Daisy Embossing Folder (Fine Designs Collection). I love the look of using two different embossing folders together.

Next, I added a patterned doily, that I cut with the Ivy Set Doily Die (Fantasia Collection), and a small patterned rectangle that I cut with a Scallop Rectangle Nesting Die, to the front of the card. I love how the patterned die-cuts add a pop of color. To finish the card, I fussy cut a few flags from pattern paper using the Precision Scissors, stamped on a sentiment, and added them to the front of the card with some fun embellishments.

Why make one card when you can make a set?! You never have to many Thank You cards.

Thanks for stopping by today!
Hugs, Pammejo

Taylor by Patti Hamil

Hi! Patti here today sharing a layout. I used several Couture Creations dies and embossing folders! This is my youngest son's fiance, and we are so happy to have her join our family! She is beautiful inside and out!

   

I made some blue flowers with the Daisy Nesting Dies. I used one of the Sophia Dies for the leaves. I added a self-adhesive pearl for the flower center. I  layered a scrap piece of embossed paper under the photo.

 

I made two more types of flowers made with the Daisy Nesting Dies, some Self-Adhesive Gemstones and another Sophia Intricutz Die. I added Gemstones to some areas for a gold accent.

   

I embossed two Core'dinations tags with the Craisy Daisy Embossing Folder. I inked them lightly with white ink.

 

 

This page came together using scraps and just a few accents! I like to go through my scrap pile to see what combinations I can come up with!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Best Pals Card with Pam Bray

Hi! Pam here today sharing my Best Pals card that I created using the Couture Creations Crazy Daisy Embossing Folder and the Couture Creations Ivy Set Doily Dies. I just love the Crazy Daisy Embossing Folder! I ran the Crazy Daisy Embossing Folder through my die-cutting machine with some pink cardstock and used it for my card base.

I added a bunch of fun banner flags that I hand cut to the bottom of the striped patterned paper, along with some lace and a couple of Candie pieces. I added an Ivy Doily, that I topped with an image of a little girl and covered with an epoxy center, to the top of the card. Thanks for stopping by today!

Hugs, Pammejo
