Make Your Own Magic Fairy Wand

Hi there!
Just a quick little post this afternoon featuring a DT project for

I used Princess Molly to create a fairy wand.


I colored the digi with pencils and a little glitter gel pen and glitter glue.
The image was fussy cut before adding to the background
created with scalloped circle die cuts and a rosette.
I added mini roses, a silk flower and an acrylic flower and a gem flourish.
The sentiment was stamped onto a layered and die cut circle.
Lots of pretty ribbons and some lace were added to the wand itself.

fabulous digis available in Conie's Etsy Shop.

Card for Spring

Wednesday  was officially the 1st full day of spring! 

Has it arrived where you are? Are you experiencing warm days filled with sunshine and flowers beginning to pop out? Not quite yet where I live, but I’m looking forward to those days.


Hey there! I'm here today with my latest project for CutCardStock and it’s a card for spring. I’ve used several card stocks in pinks and greens and some can be found as part of the Monthly Specials for March.



Card Base

I created a 5 x 6 1/2 inch card base using DCS Discount Card Stock: Amaranth Pink. I cut a piece of Mohawk Super Fine White Smooth 100 lb CardStock to 4 3/4 x 6 1/4 inches.



Next I cut 2, 1/4 inch wide pieces from MirriSparkle Glitter Pink Sapphire Card Stock, 1, 1 inch wide piece of  DCS Discount: Amaranth Pink and 1 piece of 1/2 inch wide piece of Lessebo Colors Premium Bubble Gum Pink Cardstock. All of these were at lengths longer than 6inches or so.


I then cut a piece of Lessebo Colors Premium BLOSSOM Pink 83lb Discount Cardstock 4 3/4 x 3 1/8 inches. The top pf this piece was cut on an angle with the left side being 1 inch tall and the right at about 3 1/8 inches. This piece was embossed with an embossing folder for a little texture.




All of these pieces were adhered to the white 4 3/4 x 6 1/4 inch piece of card stock from above.


Trim even with the edges of the white card and adhere to card base.

Die Cutting

Die cut flower and foliage pieces using Lessebo Bubble Gum Pink, Lessebo Hunter Green,  Pop Tone Gum Drop Green and DCS Discount Amaranth Pink.

I added a little ink to the flower petals.

A white circle was die cut as a base for the flower. Smile sentiment was also die cut.



Finishing

Add the white circle die cut to the card and layer the flower on top. I added a white pearl to flower center.

Adhere the sentiment in the left top corner.



Finish with the foliage and a few pink pearls.




Thanks so much for taking the time to check out my card for spring project!


As always, we would love for you to connect with us over on the CutCardStock Facebook Page and the Facebook Group Creating with Card Stock for more inspiration.

You Can Achieve Anything

Happy Monday!
I hope your week has gotten off with a good start!

Today I'm sharing some inspiration for

I have had the digital stamp used on this card for quite some time and
thought to was about time I colored it up and created with it.



I colored with Prismacolor Pencils.
The frame was die cut and adhered around the image.
I fussy cut around the frame edges.
It was added to a cut out from a 12 x 12 paper pad from Recollections.

I embossed a rectangular white panel and added flowers.
The "believe" was die cut.
I stamped, heat embossed and fussy cut the other sentiment.
A few pearls were added.

This card is perfect for someone needing a little encouragement, don't you think?
