Valentine's Day Cards

 Hello crafty friends,

I'm back with two fun and easy Valentine's Day cards that use the same two die sets, but one is gear towards a guy and the other towards a gal. 

Lets start with the guy card first...  If you study the card you will realize that the only thing that makes it a "guy" card are the mustaches in the background.  I created the panel with the mustaches with an embossing folder, which I first inked lite tan.  The other dies used are Poppystamps' Stitched Envelope and Cheery Lynn's Sweetheart Candy, which are currently not available in the store, but Lawn Fawn has these Candy Hearts which will work just as well.

Note:  I would have preferred to go portrait instead of landscape on this card, but didn't want to mess with a seam the embossing folder would create.  I feel like the card is missing something under the envelope... if I had this in my stash I would have used it IO Burlap die.

The second card... started with a pink pattern paper and an XOXO embossing folder as my card's background.  I used two Stitched Envelope by Poppystamps inking them with the same pink I used on the Cheery Lynn's Sweetheart Candies.

Let's build a house

 Hello Everyone.

It is my, Alycia, from My Craft Addiction.  Today I bring you Let's build a house.

This die is Winter house pop up easel set by Poppy Stamps. This die set has so many potentials.  Choosing a winter scene was something I could use for my Christmas card collection. I used the background stencil from lawn fawn but you could use the Heffy Doodle Brick by Brick stencil.  I used the Pumice Stone Distress ink by Ranger.  

I would use any glitter paper for the snow die from this set.  You could also use any type of glitter with some liquid glue.  Cosmic Shimmer glitter would work wonderful with the Quickie Glue Roller Pen.  Using the glue will allow for as much or as little glitter you want.  I love adding ALOT of glitter on a Christmas Card

Thank you for crafting with me.  

Have a wonderful day

Alycia

Poppies

Hello crafty friends,

Are you a fan of poppies?  I'm a little obsessed with them lately and recently picked up the Elizabeth Craft Designs Lacy Poppies die set and Lawn Fawn Pretty Poppies die set.  I'll showcase the Pretty Poppies in a future post, focusing on the Lacy Poppies in this post, along with the Poppystamps Grand Watering Can and the Paper Smooches Foliage 2 die sets... alternative leave die would be the Laurel Leaves, because I think the tall poppies need a tall leave.  Looking at the card now, as I write this, I feel the leaves I used are not tall enough.  Let me know what you think or if you have a better leaf die suggestion.

Check out the video below to see how this card came together.  I would greatly appreciate you considering subscribing to my YouTube channel.  Thanks :)

Bonus card, because you can't make a poppy card without making some of them red!

Black and white pattern background paper with die cut red lacy poppies make for a very happy card.
