Thank You Daisies
Hi everyone, Steph Ackerman here today with a fun, different shaped card today. I love creating different shaped cards and this was an easy one to make.
Using Bazzill Licorice Twist Cardstock, cut to 6 1/2" x 10". Place the longer size on Scor-Pal, and score at 5" and 7 1/2"
Fold on the scored lines creating a Z-fold.
Cut blue pattern paper to fit each panel of the card. Each panel was cut slightly smaller than the card so the black cardstock would peek out. 5 panels will be needed to finish the card. Ink the edges with Distress Oxide Ink in Speckled Egg.
Adhere each panel to the card.
Cut Maja Designs Flourishing pattern paper slightly smaller for the next layer. Then stamp images from 49 and Market - Gabi's Daisies using Lawn Fawn Black Licorice Ink. The pattern is subtle, but I wanted it to show through the images. Also ink the edges with Speckled Egg Ink, then adhere to the panels to the card.
Finish the inside by adding 2 sentiments from 49 and Market - Gabi's Hibiscus. I could have added some color to the daisies, but I liked the dramatic effect.

Craft O'Clock Vintage Treasure Birthday Cards
My shabby chic cards always have pearls, laces and ribbons. I had a lot of fun sewing around the edges of the card and distress the sides with sand paper and sponged some with Ranger Distress Antique Linen ink and Ranger Distress Ripe Persimmon ink. The gorgeous butterflies were cut out from the Craft O'Clock Vintage Treasure - A Sheet of Extra and once adhered to the card, I used the NUVO Crystal Clear Gloss on the butterfly and let dry. I love how it brings out the butterfly with a little gloss on the wings.
I added a Lawn Fawn Simple Banner die and stamped with the Lawn Fawn Wavy Saying on this card.
So have fun making your gorgeous shabby chic cards with the gorgeous collection from Craft O-Clock Vintage Treasure.
Have a fabulous crafting day and thanks for visiting.

Lawn Fawn Birdhouse Card
Hi everyone, Steph Ackerman here with a sweet birdhouse card today.
Lawn Fawn's Magic Iris Birdhouse add on is part of their Iris series but it can be used alone, which is the beauty of the Lawn Fawn dies. You aren't forced to purchase something you might not want to use.
Since many of the dies are small, I tend to keep them linked together so I don't lose them. I die cut all the pieces from a variety of colors so I would be ready to assemble the card. I wanted a wood grain effect to the birdhouse so I used Lawn Fawn's Dark Brown Woodgrain Cardstock.
Once I had all the pieces die cut, I created the card from brown cardstock and Authentique's Romance pattern paper. I created a stake for the birdhouse, placed it on the card, then placed the birdhouse on top. The phrase was stamped with Lawn Fawn Black Licorice Ink on the left over circle which was die cut from the center of another birdhouse.
Leaves and flowers were added to the flower box along with the blue bird. Then I added several small pearls for dimension.
To finish I added two leafy vines below the birdhouse as well as 2 more leafy vines and a small pink heart to the top of the birdhouse.

Ciao Bella MicroCosmos Thank You Cards
You will love the gorgeous flowers and microcosmos in the beauty of the gardens in the Ciao Bella MicroCosmos collection. Nancy, here, and excited to share three thank you cards made with this incredible and beautiful paper collection with gorgeous colors and details in the flowers, blades of grass and living creatures in our gardens.
You
I added doilies and die cut frames behind each frame and added a thank you sentiment to each card. My favorite frame is the Graphic 45 Staples Policy and Decorative die that was die cut in white cardstock and I cut out a gold metallic rectangle to add to this frame. I added a Wild Orchid Craft daisy flower to the center of the handmade bow.
The cards were adhered with the Beacon 3-in-1 Advanced Glue.
Have a fabulous crafting day and thanks for visiting.

Special Card and Matching Gift Bag
Hi everyone, Steph Ackerman here using the Memory Box Die - Woodgrain Heart.
The die creates the perfect heart shape with a wood grain effect so it can be used on all types of papers. I die cut Bazzill Lollipop Cardstock and Bazzill Sour Lemon Cardstock.
The card was created from Dress My Crafts Whispering Love Collection and Bazzill Licorice Twist Cardstock. Before adding the panel to the card, I placed the 2 hearts on the panel, punched holes through the layers and slipped ribbon through the holes, tying it atop the hearts.
A phrase from an Art Impressions stamp set was stamped with Lawn Fawn Black Licorice Ink and added to the corner of the card.
As I was giving this to a sweet friend with a small gift, I created a coordinating gift bag.
