Season’s Givings Blog Hop 2015!

Posted on December 31, 2014 | 199 comments

Welcome to the Season’s Givings Blog Hop and Happy 2015! I hope you are finding this year’s hop full of inspiration! Each and every blog on the list below is sponsoring their own prize, so be sure to grab a snack and a drink and enter to win some great craft swag!

I have a super quick and easy card to share today. CHA preparations are in full swing, the boys are home from school and craziness rules! It’s good to sit down and work out the crazies with crafting, isn’t it?

I die cut papers from the Basic Grey RSVP collection with A Jillian Vance Design dies. I stamped with the sentiment, then added Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L®’s 3D Foam Hearts. The back side of the pink die cuts have 3D Foam Squares, so there is some dimension to this card.

I pulled lace through the two Ribbon Banner die cuts. The 3D Foam Hearts are embellished with pink pigment powder for a nice shimmery look. I sanded the die cuts to show off the embossing better, these dies have great detail!

Here you can see the lift from the 3D Foam Squares. Easy peasy, right?

Holiday Wall Decor

Posted on December 12, 2014 | 1 comment

Hi everyone, I’ve got a home decor post on A Jillian Vance Design Today. As I was unpacking the boxes of ornaments and decking the halls, I found a set of 3 canvases that I had made several years ago. I promptly pulled the project apart and started this one!

I used the Eight Point Star Quilt die, and then die cut several pieces of coordinating papers. I trimmed off the corners away to make a star die cut, and then fit the patterned papers back into the pieces.

A quick and easy way to adhere this is to apply Adhesive Sheets to the back of the patterned paper before die cutting, then lay out the designs, and remove the backing paper before adhering each piece.

You could use blocks of wood for this project too, the canvases I used are about 1.5 inches thick, so they can hang on the wall or stand alone on a shelf or table.

Thanks for coming by today!

Beth
