Tribal Heart Candy Card


Hello..

I hope you are enjoying your weekend.

Today I have a simple card to share with you using the Candy Collection.  This collection works so well with a white card as it really brings out the colours.


Here I have used the papers from the 6 x 6" Candy Paper Pad and the elements from the 12 x 12" Candy Paper Pad.  The main focal point is the Heart which is cut from the Sizzix Bigz Die Tribal Hearts By Craft Asylum.  It has been layered to create a colourful effect.

To embellish I have added some adhesive stones.  The heart and 'enjoy' sentiment have been adhered using 3D foam pads as this helps the main focal point stand out from the rest of the card.

This card is perfect for so many occasions and with its bright colours and pretty elements it will be gratefully received.

Have a lovely weekend.

Decorating a gift box with Craft Asylum dies













One of the things I like to do when I am crafting is to make sure that I don't throwaway
 anything away that can be easily reused. I keep a box on my table where i put those bits and pieces. If they don't get used within a month or so, I give them away to my mum who just recently started paper crafting.

But usually that box comes in really handy when I have to make or decorate a card or a gift. And this is one of those occasions where I just needed to pretty up a little gift box with a present inside.


I used the Tribal dies  Native Florals - Sizzix Bigz Die, 660494;
Intricate Native Florals Sizzix Thinlits Die Set 4PK - 660499; Intricate Tribal Florals 660500 Sizzix Thinlits Die Set 5PK; and Tribal Borders - 660502 Sizzix Thinlits Die Set 2PK.

The brad at the top is from the Craft Asylum Into the Woods Embellishment Set 37pcs, that I also had a s single left over as I used all the rest from the pack.


I simply had already die cut all the elements out of white card, so I used spray paint to coloured them to match both the brad and the box.


Then I layered the flowers using the brad and glued the trim at the bottom.
Simple! And quick and easy!
