Avery Elle / Peek-A-Boo Window


Hello!
I am here today with a fun Peek-A-Boo Window card!  I love this set as it reminds me of my sweet dog and cat sitting at the window looking out!

I created the background by ink blending some Broken China Distress Ink onto a top folding card.  I added a die cut Starburst Oval Elle-ments in red.  The window once die cut out fits perfectly where the oval was!  By adding in two sentiment banners from Shout it Out, the rest of the oval was covered!  A fun sky full of stars and bursts like a real celebration!  To finish, I added in my sweet dog and cat!

My first card uses the new Sweet Daisy Die along with an older stencil Duo-tone Squares Stencil as the background.  The daisies were die cut in white and ink blended with some Copic details.  A hot foiled sentiment from Hey There Foil Plate was added in gold foil along with some muted gold pearls.

My second card uses the new Sketched Hawthorn stencil and die.  There is also a stamp set and coordinating hot foil plate as well!

I used the hot foil plate as an impression plate to give the background some dimension.  My card was rounded using the new Nesting Rounded Rectangles Die set.  A heat embossed gold sentiment strip was added with foam adhesive along with some gold pearls to finish the card!

Avery Elle / Summer Release 2023 / Blog Hop


Welcome to the Summer Release Blog Hop from Avery Elle!
I am so excited for this new release!

Balloon Greetings

I've used one of my favorite staples from this release......the Starburst Oval Elle-ments.  I love the stitched details!

Balloon Greetings is a mini set that is perfect for birthdays, graduations, or wishing someone luck!  Just look at how adorable this doggie is!!  I added a quick easy background of a stenciled wavy hill and some clouds.
