Add-ons Are Awesome!!!

 What's an add-on, you ask?  Well an add-on is a stamp and/or die set that is created especially to coordinate, or "add-on" to another stamp and/or die set.  Today, I am going to feature the Sunday Drive Die set and the Sunday Drive with Santa add-on.  


Let's start first with the original Sunday Drive die set.   I created two different birthday cards from this set.  One more masculine and one more feminine.  




The pink car is more for girls while the white car for boys.  I used the included balloons with the white car and decided to use a fishtail banner on the pink one.  I think these would be great cards for those teens that are learning to drive.  On the girl card, I coordinated all my colors with the background paper. 






Now for the add-on, Sunday Drive with Santa.



Now as you can see we used the original die set for the car, but used the add-on for the greenery, lettering, Santa, and reindeer.  It adds a Christmas option for the original die set.  I had a little fun by making the reindeer drive on the red card .




Add-ons give your original dies so much versatility and so many different ways to use them.  This set also comes with three more add-ons Sunday Drive Hitched which would be perfect for wedding cards and  Sunday Sunset Drive which can be used for a lot of different occasions, and finally Sunday Drive Halloween which would make the cutest Halloween cards.  

I have listed the supplies used.  If you don't have the exact paper, select one of your own and work your design around it.  

I hope you will considering using add-ons with original die sets for your card creations.  I will be doing more add-on cards in the future, so stay tuned.  


Happy Crafting,

Jeanne

FSJ Buzzworthy Collection!

 Today I am featuring two cards using Fun Stampers  Journey's  Buzzworthy Collection.  To view the items in this collection, click here.  




I was really attracted to the beautiful flower image in the Sweet as Honey stamp set.  I love to stamp and color in images, and this was just perfect.  I stamped the flower and extra leaves and colored them with my copic markers.  I then fussy cut them out and arranged the extra leaves around the flower gluing them in place. 

Using a piece of whip cream card stock, I then stamped the honeycomb image randomly onto the background using Lemon Drop ink.  The flower was then glued into the lower right corner.  I stamped the bees directly onto the background.  I really love how the colors of the flower coordinate with Rich Coral cardstock, so I used that as my base card.  The sentiment was stamped onto whip cream cardstock and framed with the Rich Coral.  It was then popped up onto the card.  As a final touch, I added three orange rainbow drops.  




For the second card, I used the Block Prints Stamp set.  I think this is such a beautiful set and can be used for so many different occasions.  I used the hexagon shaped mushroom stamp for this card.  I stamped the image using black ink onto Whip Cream Cardstock.   The I used the Hexagon Die Set to cut out a perfect frame from Black Licorice Cardstock.  I glued the image to the cardstock and popped it up using foam squares.  I used a gingham black and white paper as my background, but you could use and black and white printed paper.  It was mounted onto a candy apply red cardstock and placed on a white card base.  I stamped the image in black ink and mounted it onto black licorice paper and glued it underneath the image.  As a final touch, I added Journey Silver pieces to each corner of the image, and tied a red bow using candy apple red twine.  




I hope you like both of these cards and that you will check out all the products in the Buzzworthy collection.  Thanks for stopping by and have a super day!
