More Cards featuring Xyron,Globecraft Memories, and the September Counterfeit Kit

I just wanted to share a few cards I made with the last bits of my September Counterfeit Kit and some leftover pieces from the the Decor Style #9 set by Globecraft Memories & Piccolo.  See this blog post to see other card featuring Xyron and Globecraft Memories.   

1.  Welcome Baby Card.  I seriously love everything Lawn Fawn and their stamps work perfectly either colored with copics or paper pieced.  The frame behind the "welcome" sentiment is a piece of book board from the Piccolo Decor Style #9 set covered with patterned paper using my Xyron 2.5" Sticker Maker.

Supplies:  Patterned Paper (Studio Calico, Crate Paper); Stamps (Lawn Fawn); Frame by Globecraft Memories; Adhesive (Xyron 1.5" Create a Sticker, Xyron 2.5" Create a Sticker, Xyron Mega Runner); We R Memory Keepers Heart Attack.

2.  Thank You Card.  I have A LOT of thank you cards to send out so I've been trying to find every excuse to make some more.  This was also my first time playing with this new banner wafer thin die from Simon Says Stamps.  Um...LOVE!

Supplies:  Stamps (Lawn Fawn, Paper Smooches); Frame by Globecraft Memories; Adhesive (Xyron 1.5" Create a Sticker, Xyron Mega Runner, DIY Foam Tape made with Xyron 5" Creative Station); EK Success Punch; Martha Stewart Crafts Embossing Powder.

3.  The Rest...  Here are some more cards I made only with papers and embellishments from my September Counterfeit Kit.  I literally just wanted to use up the rest of my kit!  Adhesives are, of course, from Xyron.  If you don't have at least a Xyron 1.5" Sticker Maker, you need to get one.  Like right now.

4.  Happy Birthday Card.  And I made this Happy Birthday card ages ago and it wasn't from the Counterfeit Kit, but since we're talking about cards and I am trying to get everything posted, here's another one for you.  :)

As always, thanks for stopping by!

Xyron and Globecraft Memories Blog Hop

It's time for another Xyron blog hop!  This week, Xyron is partnering with Globecraft Memories & Piccolo to feature their Card Decor Sets, raw bookboard pieces for decorating with powders, gels, glitter, ink, paints and more!  I worked with the Decor Style #9 set and made these two cards (and have plans to use the rest of the pieces to make an additional 4 cards)!

1.  Friendship Card.  I need to make a lot of thank you and friendship cards to express our family's gratitude for all the generosity and love we've received since Benjamin's arrival.  For this card, I covered a Piccolo book board piece with a variety of Tattered Angels Glimmer Mists, Clearsnap Smooch Spritz, October Afternoon Sprinklers, and Fresh Ink Pigment Ink.  I wanted it to the match the pink in my patterned paper while also looking slightly distressed.  

Supplies:  Embellishments by Piccolo (Decor Style #9); Patterned Paper (Studio Calico and Crate Paper); Ribbon by American Crafts; Stamp by Lawn Fawn; Inks and Sprays (Fresh Ink, October Afternoon, Clearsnaps Smooch Spritz, Tattered Angels Glimmer Mists); Punches (We R Memory Keepers, Fiskars); Adhesives (Xyron Mega Runner, Xyron 1.5" Sticker Maker).

2.  In Love with You Card.  I'm not a huge fan of flourishes and overly ornate things in general.  But I found that pairing two of the flourishes in the kit made the most adorable little heart.  So I covered the delicate pieces with Versamark Ink and then embossed it with Martha Stewart red embossing powder to make the main embellishment for this card.  

Supplies:   Embellishments by Piccolo (Decor Style #9); Patterned Paper (Studio Calico, Crate Paper); Washi Tape by American Crafts; Absolutely Die by Simon Says Stamps; Stamp by Simon Says Stamps; Embossing Poweder by Martha Stewart Crafts; Inks and Pens (Uni-ball, Memento); Brads by Oriental Trading Company); Corner Rounder by We R Memory Keepers; Adhesives (Xyron Mega Runner, Xyron 1.5" Sticker Maker; Homemade Foam Adhesive using Craft Foam and Xyron 5" Creative Station).

I had so much fun working with the Piccolo card decor sets and can't wait to use up the rest of the pieces to make some more cards.  Make sure you head over to the Xyron Blog and Globecraft Memories Blog for more inspiration and ideas from our design teams.  

As always, thanks for stopping by!  

**Both cards were made using papers and embellishments from my September Counterfeit Kit.
