Avery Elle Graduation Card

By    May 09, 2019 // No comments
Hello Crafty Friends!

My son will be graduating high school this month and I came up with the perfect fun card using his high school colors!  The cluster of critters from the Avery Elle All of Us stamp set was the perfect group for the graduates!



To begin my card I created a5 x 6.5 card base using thick white cardstock.  I then die cut a stitched frame from gold foil paper and trimmed some watercolor paper to fit behind and inked with barn door. 


I stamped all the images from Avery Elle's All of Us and Party Pals stamp sets, colored with copic markers, and fussy cut out.  I then glued the two bottom rows of puppies to the frame and then pop dotted the other two to the frame.  Next, I adhered to the inked paper with pop dots and glued to the center of the card. 


I then die cut the graduation caps and the celebrate from black velvet paper on my cameo silhouette and glued to the card.  I adhered the YAY banner, the congrats sign, and congrats bubble with pop dots.  For the final embellishment I added the black nuvo drops.


Please check out all the product in the Kraftgali store, including the Avery Elle products! 
Once you create using the new product you get, please share with us at Kraftgali Fan Club on Facebook!

Thanks for visiting and if you are looking for a graduation card, I hope this helps you to create your own!

You're The Avocado To My Toast Picture Changer Card

By    May 06, 2019 // No comments
Happy Monday! I hope everyone had a great weekend. 

This weekend I played with Lawn Fawn's  Magic Picture Changer and Lets Toast stamp set. Lawn Fawn's Magic picture changer die set has so many possibilities. I will be playing with that die set so many times. 


I started with an avocado on the front and used the sentiment "YOU'RE THE AVOCADO TO MY TOAST" 





When you pull the tab up you see the avocado with a piece of toast. I then stamped a few hearts on the bottom left corner. 



Thanks for stopping by today. Hope you have a great week!

Hey everyone!  Welcome to another Saturday craftday with Kraftgali!  Today's project features some really fun techniques but the highlight of our card is the Lawn Fawn Manatee-riffic Set.  This stamp set is a great price point and you get lots of great images and sentiments.  We will be making a focal point on the card front, with ink blending and some stenciling using the Lawn Fawn wave dies that we cut down to use as masks.  After we get the background just the way we like it, it's time to pull out those alcohol markers (or your medium of choice) to color in our cute little manatees.  Although I'm sure they are not so little in real life.  Then we just put our card together and finish it off with some Ranger Glossy Accents to get that bubble affect for some added interest.  I hope you give this a try or put your own spin on it!  Thanks so much for stopping by!




Toot Your Horn, Lawn Fawn Style!

By    May 02, 2019 // No comments
Welcome back friends!
I have really been on a Lawn Fawn kick lately, and so today I am bringing you a double slider!
For this card, I used the critter concert and village shops stamp sets.


Lawn Fawn products are perfect for rainbow coloring and I used rainbow colors for the shops!  I started my card by creating a 5 x 6.5 card base from thick white cardstock.  I then die cut the yellow pattern paper using a stitched rectangle and glued to the center of the card.  Next, I stamped the sentiment in black ink.

I stamped all the images from the Lawn Fawn critter concert and Lawn Fawn village shops stamp sets, colored with copic markers, and then fussy cut out, but the Kraftgali shop has the critter concert's coordinating dies to make life easier!


For the double slider pieces I used pattern papers from the Lawn Fawn really rainbow paper pad for my sky and grass and black thick cardstock for the road.  I heat embossed the sentiments with white on the bottom of each pull out and on the tabs.

For assembly of the double slider I followed the detailed instructions video. 


On the left side, I added the shops in red, orange and yellow with the cute bench, the racoon and cloud. 


For the right side, to continue the rainbow coloring, I added the shops in green, blue, and purple with the bicycle, owl and cloud. 
For the center, I glued down the rainbow shops, and pop dotted the signs in between.  Next, I stamped the sentiment in black ink on white cardstock and pop dotted along the bottom.  I then pop dotted the rest of the concert critters and a few more clouds.

Loving the bright and fun colors in this playful birthday card, and I hope you try a rainbow themed card too!  Please share your creations with us on the Kraftgali Fan Club Facebook group!
And don't forget the HUGE sale going on in the Kraftgali store, 30% off most product, that is a great deal on lots of the top stamp companies!

Have a fabulous week and will see you all next Thursday!

Lawn Fawn Turtle Card

By    April 29, 2019 // No comments
Good Morning! Hope everyone had a great weekend! Our weather was beautiful here. If you have seen my posts on Mondays you know I'm a big fan of Lawn Fawns so it won't come as a surprise that I made a card this week using Lawn Fawn. 


I used the Magic picture changer die I love all of the different ways you can use it for changing pictures I will for sure be using this die many times. I have so many different ideas floating around in my head. For this first card with this die I used the Get well before-n-afters stamp set.  


This little turtle stuck on his back is so cute. 


I stamped the turtle and then masked him to ink the background I added ink in a hill shape and inked a blue sky. For a little interest I stamped some clouds in the sky.



Well when I stamped the turtle standing on his feet I didn't realize it but I stamped him a little high up so I just went with it. I added some flowers on the hill. 


I like the sentiment "Hope you're back on your feet soon" it's cute and can be used for many reasons. 


Thanks for stopping by and hope you have a great Monday!
