Elegant Twist Collection - Squares and Ovals together


Hi my crafty Friends,

Today I am sharing with you with my new inspiration for Amazing Paper Grace. 
I usually make square or rectangle cards but this time I decided to use a slimline base card. Honestly, I can say I love it and definitely I will use it more often.


I used a blue floral paper as a background of my squares. I used Elegant Twist Squares from the Elegant Twist Collection by Becca Feeken. Frames are die cut from gold and blue paper and glued together. As you can see on closeup pictures I offset them a little to get a better look. 


Under square frames, I used foam tape to get a little dimension. On the top, I put an oval die cut from the same Collection. In the middle, I stamped a sentiment "It's Your Birthday" from All Occasion Sentiments Stamp and Die Set from Flourished Fretwork Collection where you can find a set of 12 sentiment stamps and three coordinating thin metal dies.
I decorated my card with handmade flowers. I created them from creme paper and I used Amazing Paper Grace's. dies. List below.

Elegant Twist Oval | Floral card

Hi my Friends,

Today I am sharing a floral card featuring Elegant Twist Ovals Etched Dies from the Elegant Twist Collection by Becca Feeken.
I'd wanted to create something simple and I decided to colour the flowers and add to my card.


I started by colouring the flowers. I tried to colour them with pink alcohol markers but I wasn't happy with the result. So I chose purple. Then I had to find a coordinated paper with the flowers' colour. I chose a very light purple-green pattern that looks great. 



I embellished the card with little purple pearls.


I hope you like it because it was my first attempt to colour with alcohol markers :)

Elegant Twist Circles | Hello


Hello my Friends,
I'm sharing a "Hello" card featuring Elegant Twist Circles Dies designed by Becca Feeken. I used my favourite colours: pink and mint.


I love vintage style cards. I used a "Vintage Photo" distress ink on the background to add a little colour on the edge of a card and I stamped a script on it.
In the middle, just around the clock, I adhered a large ring. I cut it using the outer and inner rim and pattern between. I used a foam 3D tape to add a dimension.  In the same way, I die-cut a middle size ring and fit it a little under. 

I cut the Stamperia flowers right up to the edge using my little scissors and put them on the bigger circle.


In the middle, I put the small circle. I stamped it using a Script Stamp.  Then I add a sentiment "Hello" with the coordinated background.  Lastly, I embellished my card with handmade flowers.
