Celebrate It's Birthday Time with Tonic Timepiece Media Dies :D


A fun kind of Art Journal style birthday card, this one is much bigger than my usual favourite size, it was for my mums birthday earlier this year and she said she wanted a really big card :D I was really in the mood to create an Art Journal style background when I made this card, but didn't want to actually create and art journal layout, so I thought why not do a super duper extravagant 8x8 card for mums birthday :D Hope you liked it! It'd work equally well as a canvas piece too for some home decor :D :D

Shakers and Paper Piecing with Tonic Craft Kit #16


My second card making video using the fabulous Floral Layered Hearts Tonic Craft Kit, Kit #16 this time using it for a shaker card, and my old favourite, paper piecing :DI was hoping that I could slot the multi heart die into itself and cut it again, but it didn't quite work out, but as you can see in the video, I just placed the die as close as I could to the previous die-cut one instead and it worked great :D It's also a little tricky to get the exact right sized heart into each heart aperture (as there are so many different sizes), so I added in some smaller hearts to the bigger apertures so that the glitter would show around the perimeter, and I think I like this look better :D Hope you liked both the cards! My ArTi video using the kit will also be live today, so I'll link that below :D

Wonderfall Tonic Waterfall with Tonnes of Lawn Fawn :D

 

My first ever Waterfall card made for my best friend on her 26th Birthday using memories of her daughter from the past year to fill the different panels :D :D I love Tonic's interactive dies, they make creating fun cards so simple and easy! And of course I had to throw in my favourite Lawn Fawn stamps sets to create the little scenes on each of the panels for this card :D I know Danielle (as well as my other friends and family) really appreciate my cards, so I like to go all out in creating them (might have spent nearly 3 hours on this one hahaha)  But I just love how simple the mechanism for this card was! The time consuming part was deciding on the stamps, masking the scenes and colouring, but having one of Tonic's stamping platforms really makes masking so much easier as you can easily place down your stamps and stamp multiple images exactly where you want them so easily :D :D

Main product used :D
Tonic Wonderfall Waterfall Die Set

Nuvo Black Shadow Ink Pad
Tim Holtz Travel Stamping Platform
