Make A Wish…It’s Your Day!

Posted on by Shauna Todd

Hi Crafty Friends,

One of my favorite types of cards to make is a birthday card. Mostly because coming from a large family I am always in need of one and they are great to have on hand. This card design is a sweet, feminine one using the Pinkfresh Make A Wish stamp and die set and a wonderful fancy-shaped die from Papertrey Ink, making its debut. Papertrey Ink is a new line The Foiled Fox shop will be carrying.. so keep your eyes peeled for more in the coming week.

In case you don’t know about Papertrey Ink, they ALWAYS have fresh and fabulous stamps, dies and other creative and cool stuff. They also create for their new division, Ink To Paper, which is super awesome too! Check that out too!

This Little Bear is flying by to say “Happy Birthday”

Posted on by Shauna Todd

Hi Everyone,

Here is another card design showing off the T-bird stamp, a cute little bear flying a plane with a birthday banner trailing behind to help you get acquainted with Purple Onion Designs. This card was created for a small four-year-old but really, it is sweet for any age.

You probably know that Stacey Yacula from Purple Onion Designs creates the most adorable little creatures and scenes. This is just one reason why we are so excited to have Purple Onion join our illustrious list of stamp and die creators. They are a perfect compliment to the other critters available in our shop.

Brilliant Blooms, Two Ways and Two Color Schemes

Posted on by Shauna Todd

Hi Everyone,

I started writing this post and found the explanation was getting too wordy, so… the next best thing I could think of was to create a video to explain all the ins and outs. You can view it below or on our YouTube channel.

The two card designs were made using the Brilliant Blooms stamp and die set by My Favorite Things. I have used this set before (click here to check it out) and was impressed by the versatility and beauty of the simple blossoms so decided to give it another look.

In these cards, I created a background by stamping and embossing the flowers, cut out the center and add a gracious sentiment from the Paper Artsy Eclectica3 stamp set. The left-over cut-out center was then used to create the second card.

Take a look at the video of the two different card design styles and colors.
