Hello, my crafty friends!!
Did you check what’s new at Amazing Paper Grace? Becca Feeken launched her new Home Sweet Quilt Collection this winter season to keep you warm and cozy. Home Sweet Quilt is a collection of patterned dies, an embossing folder, and clear stamps all inspired by beautiful handmade quilt designs. Becca Feeken introduces this lovely offering for crafters to create heartwarming cards, scrapbook pages, and more.
Today, I am focusing on Patchwork Petals Etched Dies (S5-537). One of the advantages of these dies was that I could play a lot with colors and patterned papers from soft and subtle shades to cozy and warm shades. For today’s inspiration, I combined teal with white for the winter season and added a touch of silver that gave me the chance to add sparkles of snow.
For my first card, I created a square, 6″ by 6″ card. I started by cutting the die set with teal and white cardstock, removed a few quilted elements from the teal set, and replaced them with whites. To hold the elements together, I used double-sided tape which also helped me add the dimensions too. Next, I cut the die set twice with white cardstock and chopped the flower apart, stacked them together with clear glue, shaped them softly, and added them to the center. Added layers of white and teal made the card front stand out from the silver frame which I created using Postage Edge Squares from the Postage Edge Shapes Collection by Becca Feeken. Sentimentiment “Quilty Hugs” came from Log Cabin and Flower Mini Quilts Etched Dies from Home Sweet Quilt Collection by Becca Feeken. Here are a few close-ups from the card.
For the second project, I followed the same pattern but this time I chopped the square quilted pattern diagonally to create a slimline card. I layered the patterns on a dry embossed panel which I created using Orange Peel Quilt Embossing Folder from Home Sweet Quilt Collection by Becca Feeken and framed the card panel using the Postage Edge Slimlines from the Postage Edge Shapes Collection by Becca Feeken.
