Winnie & Walter Leading Lady Week 2- Digital Files with Stamps & Dies!

October 10, 2015 at 12:00 pm 26 comments

Hi! Welcome to those of you who are visiting for the first time (or recent visitors too !!)

Keren_oct2015

Thank you for all your lovely comments so far about being a Leading Lady, it’s been so encouraging that you’ve enjoyed what I’ve done.

This week, as I mentioned, I wanted to focus on what I think are often forgotten about, but were one of the things that really impressed me about Winnie & Walter; their digi / cut files.

Before some of you get turned off and think this is not for you.. it is!

Ok, you might not have a electronic die cutter ( think Silhouette Cameo, Cricut, Pazzle, Black Cat Cougar etc.)..yet! but lots of these files can be simply printed and then trimmed out, and anyhow, hopefully there’s a little inspiration for you just using the techniques with stamps and dies…

I’ve combined two cut files…Scenery: Rectangled & Triangled and The Big, the Bold & Party Digital Elements

You can see a close-up of one of the projects; the little individual shaker triangles in the photo beneath

If you want to see the projects properly- do pop over to the blog– I’d love for you to leave me some love over there!

For the flowers I stamped out In Bloom: Lola’s Bouquet with Joni Andaya, and used the foliage from Winter Woodland. Add some little sequins and you’re done!

The next card was created using a simple cut file to create a soft textured background. I love the way that the cut vellum almost drapes onto the card.

This was using Winter Woodland, Hugs Cutaway and the cut files Scenery:Rectangled & Triangled

Hope there’s some inspiration for even the non-digi users amongst you!

Because I’m doing the Leading Lady gig this month, Julie & Shay also have generously given a $30 voucher for their store for me to give away.

All you have to do is leave a comment on any of the 4 blog posts over the next 4 Saturdays on this blog and this week tell me what topic or theme you’d love to see covered in a set of stamps. I’ll randomly pick a winner on October 31st and post their name on my blog on Sat Nov 1st.

To see all 3 projects, go and visit the Winnie & Walter blog

Can’t wait to be back next Saturday.. this time with some fun 3D projects! xx

    Such fabulous cards, Keren … brilliant shaker and such lovely layering … I’m particularly taken with the natural look of the wooden ‘hugs’ with the branch and leaf cluster behind it! Stamp set topic … I’d love to see the Nativity make an appearance … it’s is the reason we celebrate Christmas, after all! Anita 🙂

    Let’s just say I had to pick myself up off the floor after visiting the W&W blog. These cards are such works of art, that I’m totally gob-smacked. When I thought I was done drooling over one of them, I saw another that just dropped my jaw. All those bead-filled triangles, the stunning woodgrain vellum (which incidentally I’m actually going to try) and then you top it off with those incredibly colored diecuts on your shaped card. W&W must be over the moon having you as their Leading Lady this month, I know I am. Just wanted to say thank you for your encouraging comments on my blog, as well. They’re so appreciated.

    Your projects are amazing, that cut file card with the woodgrain, swoon! As to what I’d like to see, I’m always in need of a sympathy set.

    I love that layered shaker and WISH I had an electronic cutting machine! Maybe some day…
    I’d love to see a Carousel with interchangeable horses/critters as a stamp/die set!

    Keren, a lovey array of cards, showcasing your talent for creating magic with W&W products. Your third card, featuring the beautiful inking of the rose cutaway, is the star of the stage for me. Absolutely stunning!

    I’ve seen all 3 cards over on the W&W blog and I’m just amazed at your creativity! I must learn how to weld better using my Cameo so I can try some of your ideas. Those separate shaker windows in your first fantastic card would test my patience though, I think!

      SORRY – I forgot to answer your question Keren.
      I mostly make birthday cards, so I would like to see a mix of fonts and greetings for birthday cards, inside and out. I want to make more cheery “just because” cards, so it would be a set that includes things like dropping by … to say hi, thinking of you, hello, howdy etc, also with a mix of fonts and sizes.

    I don’t have an electronic cutter and you have made me look at digi files in a whole different way. Love the triangle shakers. Masculine themes are always interesting. Hugz

    Love the triangle mini-shakers on your card, all are so beautiful. I would love to see more “mailable” cards, how to give look of layers without bulk.

    These are all so amazing! Love your individual triangle shaker card, its so clever. I really also like how you added those black dots to your floral card, is so effective and really makes the card stand out. Looking forward to next weeks post now!!
