Looks Complicated, But SO Easy To Make! EZ with CZ

Hi friends! Happy Wedesday! Please join me in welcoming special monthly Guest *CZ herself*, Cathy Zielske in the latest of our EZ with CZ blog series! Be sure to watch the video to learn all the details on this pretty card and enjoy!!

Hey everyone, Cathy Z. Back with a fun winter card that is so simple to create! I love the embossing folders that come with dies to cut out elements and the Dazzle Snowflake folder does just that. There is so much texture on this card it’s misleading. It’s actually VERY easy to do!

A little ink blending on the edge of the snowflakes adds so much. You ink blend first, then use the embossing folder to add that gorgeous details to your die cuts. Starting with a base of colored cardstock like this Seafoam is a great way to go.

Here is the video showing you how easy this is to do!

I hope you’ll check out some of the embossing folders with coordinating dies. They are so fun to create with.

Also! Join me in a big welcome to special guest Audrey Tokach with an adorable card using new release items! Take it away, Audrey!

Hello everyone!  Audrey here!  Today, I have a fun projects to share with you using the new Lawn Fawn valentines release!  To create my card, I started off with an A2 card base, and I layered several stripes of different shades of pink and red to the card base using liquid glue.  Over top of that, I layered the new Checkered Heart Backdrop Portrait die cut from white card stock.  I love that the tiny hearts can be used for other projects too!  For my focal point, I diecut the new Giant Outlined Love die three times from white card stock and glued them together for some added dimension.  I diecut the letters from Guava card stock, and used some Metallic Gold card stock and Candy Cane Lane 12×12 patterned paper for the heart. 

I added some adorable valentines themed elements using the new Build-A-Critter Valentine Accessories die set.  I love that these dies can be used with a critter, or without, like I’ve done today. From the set, I used the angel wings, arrow, and tiny letter and envelope. I added a gold embossed sub-sentiment using the previously released Henry’s Build-A-Sentiment Love stamp set, which I stamped onto an Everyday Sentiment Banner diecut.  To finish things off, I added a few white gel pen details.  That’s all for me today!  If you haven’t checked out the new release yet, be sure to do so.  There are so many cute new things! :). Thanks for stopping by!
