Design Team: Birthday Card

Hello,

This is Veronica from Vicky's Scrapping Passion sharing with you my latest creating for Connie Can Crop.

I created this very simple card after printing and fussy cutting an image page from our sponsor, CraftsUprint, from their free files vault.

I pop-up the flowers and added some shimmer with Wink of Stella markers and brushes.

I couldn't believe how easy this card was to make. I love those files, they are so versatile and cute.
Just perfect for my Mom's present.

And don't forget to check out the this month's challenge!!

Pile It On #115 - Die Cut Embellishments

Dear scrappers,

Today starts my new adventure as a designer for: Pile It On
Although, I messed and didn't get my project ready on time for this challenge:
"""""

Pile It On #115 - Die Cut Embellishments

This fortnight at Pile It On we're challenging you to Die Cut Embellishments. Manual or electronic die-cutting is acceptable, as long as you've done it yourself.

We're sponsored by Dr. Digi's House of Stamps and one lucky participant (chosen from challenges #115 & #116) will receive a 2 digi stamps of their choice! The Top Picks for this challenge will be posted on September 11, and the Prize Winner will be announced on September 25.

Welcome to the brilliantly bizarre brain of Dr. Digi's House of Stamps. Here you will

find monsters, aliens, odd balls and Dundertons as well as many many more wonderful digital stamps. Our artist and founder cut his teeth in the craft world at the

company "Just Inklined", where his unique digis made a huge impression. We're

hoping to continue to entertain and amuse, with our growing catalogue of great

value digis with a sense of humor""""""

I hope you follow this great blog and decide to participate in this fun challenge.

Check out the other Design Team members and their amazing work.

Have a wonderful week,

Vicky

Design Team: Wallhanging

Hello,

this is Veronica from Vicky's Scrapping Passion sharing with you my latest creating for Connie Can Crop.

I created a wall-hanging following loosely this month's sketch for the challenge. I used materials from my April Swirlydoos kit (with Blue Fern Studios embellishments and papers, TH Idea-ology, Kaiser Crafts wooden veneers, and some other goodies). I printed out two image pages from our sponsors, CraftsUprint, from their free files vault for the main focus.

I was dying to try to make a embroidery loop project, after weeing Connie's from last year. Thus, when I saw this kit, I was waiting impatiently to use it in a project. A closer look to the main embroidery loop part:

I made this wall-hanging for my Mom's birthday. I really hope she'll like it, what do you think? ;-)

For a quick guide, I made a Snap Guide here: https://snapguide.com/guides/make-a-embroidery-loop-wallhanging/#published

I forgot to add the 3D glue dots, which I used a lot.

Some close-ups:

My favorite part:
