adorable cute street scene

An Interactive Cinematic Shadow Box – A Busy Street Scene!

Hi! I hope all of you are having a great week! Today I am sharing one of the biggest shadow scene I’ve ever made! This card is themed around a busy street with lots of fun elements!

I used the Cinematic Shadow Box stand alone die cut to create the backbone of my card. You can have up to 4 tabs in this shadow box which gives great dimension and lots of room to fit ample stamped images!

I combined images from a bunch of different stamp sets including The Sweetest Truck, Rabbit Cafe, Happy Track and Field (Chapter 2), Fun Adventure, and Sweet Ride.

I thought why not take it to the next level and combine this shadow box with an interactive element! I used the Dotted Borders Slimline Pull Tab – Stand-Alone Die to make the Ice Cream truck move down this busy street!

Check out this card in action below!

I used the Sidewalk Scene Builder – Stand-Alone Die to die cut the two sidewalks on The Sandstone Series – Smokey Eyes – Heavyweight Premium Cardstock and then added splashes of paints. For the background wall, I blended Distress Oxide Inks on the Mega Blocks stencil and die cut it using the large dotted border die from the Cinematic Shadow Box.

I just love making these mini scenes on this shadow box! Acetate played a big part in the assembly of this card.

I used acetate for a couple of the tabs in the box so that the road background could show through. I added acetate to mimic the Ice Cream Truck’s windows. I also used it for placing the music notes that are coming from the ice-cream truck!

To keep everything in perspective, I laid out the images so that larger characters go near the front and smaller ones go at the back.

I stamped out a sentiment from The Sweetest Truck on the front tab of the box which I had trimmed down to show more of the sidewalk at the bottom.

I hope you enjoyed this inspiration and thank you so much for stopping by!

Summery Beachy Slimline Card

Delightful Beachy Slimline Scene by Mimi!

Hi everyone, happy Wednesday! Mimi is back to share her adorable slimline card!

I just love everything that’s happening in this sweet scene!

All the cute bears are from the Miniature Teddy Bear stamp set. I love how she combined a bunch of different stamp sets and dies to complete her scene!

I love the white beach shoreline she painted and the ink splatters to mimic the sandy beach.

The truck and sweets are from The Sweetest Truck. I love how she also a added a partial image (the leaves) from the floral design in So Blessed stamp set. The table and chairs setting are from Fun Night Out while the beach umbrella is from Rabbit Café.

I also love the little beach ball and sand castle she made from images taken from Penguin Agenda.

Thank you so much Mimi for sharing this beautiful scene! It’s so adorable!

A Cool Snowy Scene with Lynnea!

Hi Crafty Friends! Today Lynnea is back with a video tutorial that features our Crystal Snowflakes – Penguin Perfect Pattern – Designer Stencil, and our earlier release, Rabbit Café stamp set & coordinating dies.

Lynnea started by blending the background using Distress Oxide ink, Hickory Smoke. Then she used Fired Brick to do the snow flakes with our Crystal Snowflakes stencil.

She mainly chose both red-tone and warm grey for her images from the Rabbit Café stamp set, to make them coordinate with the background seamlessly.

She decided to make the little shop a Coffee Shop and added the sentiment “STAY SWEET” to finish off her card. Who wouldn’t love a hot coffee in the cold snowy weather! She also added a bunch of silvery gems which makes her card even more charming!

Check out her video tutorial on our YouTube Channel and give it a like!

Thanks Lynnea for this wonderful card! I really like how the gems look like falling snow!

Thanks for stopping by, have an awesome day.

Today we are showcasing the Rabbit Café and its coordinating Rabbit Café – Penguin Perfect Cuts. It’s a BREW-tiful day! This set has got to be my favourite from our summer release! It is so adorable. I love the little café shop, the little bunny and the little girl. All the accessory images are so cute! I promise that you will endless fun playing with these images. Now let’s check out the amazing samples from our talented designers!

First we have Vera with her card. I love how she placed the coffee shop at the top as the background and laid out the characters in the foreground. The white card base, the lightly blended sky, together with the pastel images makes the card looks so refreshing!

Then we have Lynnea sharing with us her gorgeous creation! I love the stone walkway she created and how she laid out the plants along the little path! The blue sky and the grassy field were beautifully blended. I also love how she decorated the little café shop’s signs. The white embossed clouds were also a great finishing touch to the card.  Don’t miss her full tutorial video here!

Next we have our new Guest Designer Rina Galit with her creation. She chose some very light color Distress Oxide inks for her background, Spun Sugar and Antique Linen.  And she colored the images with some really light Copic Markers which made the card looks really unique!

Then we have Francesca. Franci built her scene with a soft pink background and two wide strips of white cardstock on the top and the bottom. This technique accented and creates a focal point on the little girl and the sentiment she used near the middle portion. Love the sequins as a final touch!

Last but not least we have Anja’s card. This scene is unbelievably cute!! I love the way she put the muffin, coffee and the candy on top of the shop as decorations! I also love the way she coloured the umbrella and the banner. The background was also beautifully executed. The nice boarder detail was created using our Cross Stitched and Dots Large Rectangle Overlay stand-alone die.

A HUGE Thank-You to our wonderful and talented Designers and our Guest Designer. Please head over to their blogs for more details on these cards.
