Black, white and yellow musical birthday card

Hello,
This is a card I've made for the July Win and Tonic challenge: black, white plus another colour. I made it using the dies I won from the Facebook Group Tonic Live Chat event where this card was demonstrated, really made up about that!

I used the Deco Trellis to make the card blank and then the Tonic Rococo Perfect Harmony, Musical Notes and Treble Clef dies and the Miniature Moments Birthday Wishes sentiment die.

For the inside I used the Miniature Moments Celebrate sentiment die on mats cut using the Trellis Layering die set - which I'd bought because I liked the Deco Trellis so much!

Thanks for stopping by.

Exploding box

Hello there,
this is the last 3D item I made for my Certificate in Paper Crafting course, and was my first attempt at an exploding box.

I used quite a few Tonic products such as the layering dies to cut the squares, the On Mother's Day insert from the Affections die set, the Pretoria alphabet die set and the butterfly from the Fae Trellis topper die set.

I made the flowers using the Heartfelt Creations Sun Kissed Fleur die and stamp set with Cosmic Shimmer Gold Sparkle embossing powder.

I added family photos as it was a present for my Mom on Mother's Day who loved it. Hope you like it too.

Thanks for stopping by.




Floral box

Hello there,
this is a 3D item I made for my Certificate in Paper Crafting course. It started off as a pop up card but I ended up putting a base on it to make it more stable, I might have overdone the flowers I put in it!

I used mainly Tonic products including the Amelia embossing folder on the blue background card, panels from the Pavilion shutter card, Bellus Buttercup, Radient Rose Lily, Delicate Daisy, Sweeping Pampas and Frond Finesse for the floral arrangement.I finished it off with an acetate butterfly from Hunkydory. It took a while to make as it was the first time I'd made one but I was pleased with the end result.

I hope you like it, thanks for stopping by.
