A Little Oval Ombre Set the Mood!

May 24, 2013 by EpiphanyCrafts Leave a Comment

Hello everyone it’s Natt Smith here with you today to share with you project highlight oval tools .

On this oval tools project I wanted to use oval shape as much as possible and I thought its might be a perfect idea to coordinate it with ombré color.

but instead of bright and fun color I use grey instead so this card can be gifted for female and male.

Lets get started.

Tools we need ..

Oval tool , washitape , different shade of grey paper, stamp and ink.

I started my project with plain white card base . Then adhere grey strip washitape and added smaller washi tape on top.

Now we start making ombré oval epoxy.

Making a few of grey ovals for this card.

Stamp sentiment with grey ink.

Waif for it to completely dry then arrange oval on to your cards randomly in the way you like .

And there you have it !

A grey ombré oval card.

Thanks for stopping by everyone.

Hello Friend Card Featuring Our Oval Tool

May 21, 2013 by Grace 1 Comment

Hi there friends. Shape tools are very versatile. In this card I used the oval tool to create my own tulip flowers using pattern paper. Read on to learn how you can recreate this card.

Supplies Used:

Shape Studio Tool Oval 25 SST-37

Shape Studio Accessories Bubble Caps Oval 25 SSA-39Cardstock- WorldWin Papers

Pattern paeprs- Lucky Charm, Dear Lizzy, American Crafts

Letter stickers- Dear Lizzy, American Crafts

Pen- Millennium, Zig

Mist- Candy Apple, Tattered Angels

Adhesives- Hampton Arts, Scrabpook Adhesive by 3L

To recreate the tulip flowers you will need to punch out oval shapes from pattern paper using the Oval tool. Punch as many as you would like. Papers with smaller prints are best for this project.

Cut a notch on one long end of the oval shaped papers. Adhere them to the card, adding some with foam adhesive for extra dimension. Connect the flowers to the jar/pot with stems created with a black pen.

Add a bubble statement with your card sentiment by using a negative space of a oval shape as a template. Write down your word inside the shape. This will ensure that when you punch out your shape, it won’t cut off any of the letters in your sentiment.

Punch out the word, adding a bubble sticker over it before punching. Adhere to your card.

Thank you for stopping by and if you’ve used your shape tools to create your own handmade embellishments, comment below. I’m always on a hunt for new inspirations on how to use my shape tools in innovative ways.

Till next time- Grace

Flowers For Mom

May 2, 2013 by Jennie 4 Comments

Hello!! This is Jennie.

Mother’s Day is almost here! But don’t worry because this week we have lots of ideas for those amazing ladies in your life!

I’ve been wanting to made one of these flower pots for a while and since my mom loves all things girly I figured this would be the perfect time to make one. I left the bottom pretty bare since the top is really full and busy.

I used some dies and cuts from my Cricut for the flowers on my bouquet. I curled some flowers on the top to give them some dimension and top them off with the Shape Studio Tool Round 14, Shape Studio Tool Flower 25 and some pearls.

My favorite part is that you can hide the message inside the pot.

Supplies:

Shape Studio Tool Flower 25
Shape Studio Tool Round 14
Crate Paper Maggie Holmes Collection
Tombow Stamp Runner Dot Adhesive
Tombow Mono Aqua Liquid Glue
Cricut
Pearls
Twine
Beads

I hope you can find the right ideas for mom this week!!

Take Care!!

Jennie

Thank in Style with Our Epiphany Crafts Square 25 Tool

April 12, 2013 by Grace 1 Comment

Hi friends! I’m so excited to share with you my first project as an official member of the Epiphany Crafts design team.

Quilting has become a hot trend in paper crafting lately and I thought of incorporating that trend in a Thank you card using the Square tool. I also wanted to add an extra “gift” to the recipient of this card so I added a charm with it.

Let me show you how I made my card….

Thank You Card by Grace Tolman

Supplies needed:

Epiphany Crafts Shape Studio Tool Square 25 SST-38
Epiphany Crafts Shape Studio Accessories Bubble Caps Square 25 SSA-40
Epiphany Crafts Metal Charms Double Square 25 38-46
Pattern paper- Lime Twist, My Mind’s Eye
Card base- Yellow cardstock, WorldWin Cardstock
Ribbon- Seam binding, source unknown
Twine- Carribean, The Twinery
Thread- Coats and Clark
Sewing Machine
Others- Pencil and ruler

2. I used a yellow cardstock for my base and I cut it to a 4x 5 ½” card size. Next, I made some slight pencil marks around the front of the card. I’ll use these marks to make sure I center my square papers on my project.

3. After I had created my grid, I went ahead and adhered my paper squares on my card. I used a repositionable adhesive so it doesn’t move around when I do my machine stitching on the squares.

4. Then I added some straight stitching on the card. I tried to mimic the “x” stitching that I normally see in quilts for this project.

5. I also added some machine stitching all around the paper pieced background to ground the design.

6. Next, I punched out a pretty floral design from one of the papers in the Lime Twist collection. I added a bubble to create an epoxy finish on it and then adhered it to the jewelry metal charm.

7. Then I wrapped some pink seam binding across the bottom portion of the card and tied the ends into a bow. I then threaded some twine through the top of my charm, finished it off in a bow and then adhered that to the card. I love added little charms to the card. It’s an “extra” gift you can share to the recipients.

8. The last thing I did was work on my card sentiment. I found this tag as part of the Lime Twist collection but it already had some words on it. To make it work with my card, I cut out a scrap of white cardstock, trimmed it to just cover the words and then added my sentiment with stickers.

And there you have it. A card that’s ready to be given to a friend. They’re going to love your card and even love the charm that you created especially for them.

Sweet Spring Treats with The Robin’s Nest

March 18, 2013 by EpiphanyCrafts 4 Comments

Welcome to a new week!

We’re pairing up for the first time with our friends at The Robin’s Nest!

Well known for their beautiful Dew Drops!!

Designers Tessa Buys and Christina Hereen kick off this week…

I love the Robin’s Nest tear drops. I thought the green tear drops made perfect flower leaves, so I created a trio of spring-themed cards complete with an Epiphany Crafts center.

First, cut book pages to size. Using a highly pigmented white ink (or watered down acrylic paint), paint flower petals onto book pages. Allow to dry. In the meantime, create round 14 epoxies using book pages and Epiphany Crafts tools. Next, use a pen to outline the petals and draw the stem. Attach epoxy centers and Robin’s Nest leaves using Diamond Glaze or a similar product. Adhere book page to card.

Epiphany Crafts Supplies Used:
Epiphany Crafts Round 14 tool
Epiphany Crafts Round 14 bubble caps

Other Supplies Used:
Tear Drops – Robin’s Nest
Ink: Speedball
Pen: K and Company
Cardstock: Georgia-Pacific
Adhesive: 3M and Diamond Glaze
Other: book pages

Hello, it’s Christina here to share my project using Robin’s Nest and, of course, Epiphany Crafts.

I used the Purse file from the Silhouette store to cut the treat bag from Robin’s Nest patterned paper and added a closure using Epiphany Crafts tools. To create a closure for the treat bag, start by punching a circle using the Round 14 Tool and Robin’s Nest paper.

Remove the prongs from an Epiphany Crafts brad setting and adhere a magnet to the back of the brad.

Adhere the brad setting to the front of the flap of the treat bag.

Adhere a second magnet to the front of the treat bag and you have a quick and easy closure.

I filled small glassine bags with tea bags and homeade treats and added them to the treat bag. This is a quick and fun way to send someone a warm surprise on a rainy day.

Supplies:
Epiphany Crafts Studio Shape Round 14 Tool
Epiphany Crafts Round 14 Brad Setting
Epiphany Crafts Studio shape Pennant 25 Tool
Robin’s Nest Glitter Discovery Girl Patterned Paper
Robin’s Nest Two Lips Tear Drops
Silhouette Cameo
Purse Studio File
Hero Arts Wet Cement Ink
Basic Grey Magnetic Snaps
Recollections White Cardstock
Papertrey Ink Cloud 1 & 2 Die Collection
Papertrey Ink Teas For Two Additions Stamp Set

Create a Little Luck with Epiphany Crafts!

March 5, 2013 by EpiphanyCrafts 2 Comments

Lucky green! My favorite color!! It also happens to be my birthstone and the color of my eyes. So this was a fun project to create!

I actually have a friend who has a birthday around St. Patrick’s Day so I decided to make a birthday card and gift for her using Lucky Green!

First I cut out the card from Kraft cardstock using my Silhouette. Then I used the Heart Shape Studio Tool to create the shamrock and covered the punched paper Jillibean Soup paper with the heart bubble caps. It’s a rather simple card but that is what I love about it.

I also cut out a bag topper with the same style and filled the bag with green goodies.

Supplies used:

Epiphany Crafts Shape Studio Tool Heart 25
Epiphany Crafts Bubble Caps Heart 25

Other supplies:
Jillibean Soup patterned paper
Silhouette die cuts by Kolette Hall
Kraft cardstock

Hope your day is Lucky Green!!
Christine

Take A Note About Epiphany Crafts!

February 21, 2013 by EpiphanyCrafts 15 Comments

I’m so excited about using my Epiphany Crafts tools and accessories with the brand new Kiss Me Collection from Bella Blvd. The colors in the collection just make me happy so I wanted to make something for my desk so I that I could see them all of the time.

I love notebooks. For someone who does most everything on a computer and a phone, using a steno pad may seem a bit antiquated. But there is something about sketching and writing my ideas on paper that really appeals to me. So I made a decorated notebook that has a steno pad inside and a matching Post It Note holder.

I covered the steno pad with navy blue cardstock. Then I decorated it with the lovely Kiss Me paper.

I cut out the flower using my Silhouette Cameo and a Lori Whitlock file and punched the center using my Epiphany Crafts Round Button Studio Tool and tied a bow with twine.

The post it note holder was a fun find and a perfect companion to my notebook. I cut the file using my Silhouette Cameo and a file from A Little Hut.

I used the Bella Blvd Kiss Me paper to decorate the base and then broke out my favorite Epiphany Crafts Studio Tool, the Flower Button.

I punched three flowers for each side of the note holder. I love how they look with the fun paper behind them. The buttons have adhesive on one side and so the paper sticks to it while the shape is punched out.

Thanks for stopping by the blog and have a wonderful day!
