Little Tangles Challenge: Paper Piecing!

Hey everyone!

Thanks for coming back for another Neat and Tangled Little Tangles challenge! 


I have to admit, when I saw our challenge for this month, I felt a little out of my league.  I like clean and simple and, to me, paper piecing felt very intimidating. I know there are many ways to do this technique, but here is what I created!




For this card, I used the Heart of Gold die with two colors of paper, gold glitter, and a coral/red. I decided I liked the look of the gold outline so I pieced the red pieces back into the die. To help keep everything down, I put adhesive down onto white cardstock and placed the outline down.  Then I placed the inside pieces down and it was together for me to then play around with it so I can move it around before I place it down permanently. The sentiment is from Simon Says Stamp and of course I finished it off with a few Neat and Tangled sequins!!

Little Tangles Challenge: Gold and Mint

Hey everyone!

Thanks for coming back for another Neat and Tangled Little Tangles challenge! I absolutely loved our color combo challenge this week!

Gold and mint! 


I mean look at this color combo! Isn't it gorgeous?!





For this moths card, I used the All My Heart stamp stamped on vellum to create a banner.  The gold striped background is actually from a Teresa Collins gold foil 6x6 paper pad (no longer available unfortunately). The mint heart paper is from Lawn Fawn and I cut it using this stitched circle die.

Little Tangles: Birthday Challenge

Welcome to another Neat and Tangled Little Tangles challenge! This week our challenge is birthday cards! 



Here is what I created:





For the card, I used the Punchinella Stamp with white embossing powder and rubbed distress inks over it.  For the sentiment, I kept it simple with the  and Everyday Circles set and used a circle punch to punch out "Happy". I used foam underneath the background to give it some dimension and adhered the sentiment directly on top.
