For tips on how to create a layered card and shadow boxes check out this video here
Instructions: My card is 6 X 6". To see the inside pages check out this link. Cover the card base with the paper collection and use the coordinating circle dies to cut center holes in the designer paper. Die cut scalloped circle and smaller circle on coral designer paper to create a fun circle frame.
Using Rich Cocoa ink stamp the flowers and leaves, die cut with coordinating dies. Color using Morocco and Cantaloupe, New Sprout and Bamboo Leaves for the leaves. Shape using the deluxe flower shaping kit. Add the flower soft and set aside.
Next using Tuxedo Black ink stamp the turtles, sea horses, and fish. Die cut with coordinating dies and color them using various Memento and Archival inks, set aside. This is also a good time to add any glitter that you want.
Find the Jelly Fish on the paper collection and die cut. The die fits perfectly so if you are not a stamper you can use the images on the paper. I also cut one of the fish as well. Choose sentiment and diecut using Luggage and Tags die.
Now you are ready to decorate. Decide where you want the elements to go and adhere them and the card is finished. This is a very easy card for the end result to be so wonderful. I hope you try this as it has a huge WOW factor.

For tips on how to create a layered card and shadow boxes check out this video here
Instructions: To see the inside pages of this layered card click here. Construct 5 X 7" layered card then cut designer paper for each side of each page (sponge edges of all pages). The first page is the largest oval and they get smaller as you go. For the first page, in order for the window frame to fit, you need to cut the designer paper with a rectangle (large enough for the window) a bit smaller than the opening. Before gluing front piece of designer paper, glue a piece of ribbon about 8 or 9" hanging over the edge, then glue your "cover" page on. On each oval opening I also cut an oval frame from designer paper using two oval dies to create the frame.
Stamp and die cut the window from white cardstock using black ink on white cardstock. Die cut Window Box Elements (decorative pieces) on white cardstock and cut the larger decorative piece in half lengthwise (these will be the shutters). Glue window, shutters and topper onto the front cover.
Stamp, die cut and color holly and cardinal (several pieces are used throughout) using black ink on white cardstock, coloring with Copic Markers, form slightly then add the Crystal Clear glitter. Stamp, die cut and color the sled, color using Copic Markers add some bakers twine as a pull rope. Pop the sled up against the "wall" next to the window. Add the holly and cardinal to the left side of the cover. Glue the window to the opening.
Page 1, cut the oval frame from designer paper and glue to page. Add a holly garland on top of both window and fussy cut the little girl (she is looking at the tree!). Die cut four Fleur and Border Pockets onto white cardstock add these double pockets at the bottom of both pages. Stamp "Twas the night before Christmas" using black ink. Die cut with Spellbinders A2 Rectangles adding a mat behind it.
Page 2, this is just designer paper, oval frame and poinsettias (stamp, die cut and sponge poinsettias with Angle Pink then form flowers and add Prills). This page also has the Christmas tree in the oval and poinsettias also a little sentiment "ticket".
Page 3, has an oval frame alone with Holly & Berries in two corners. Die cut Regal borders from white cardstock and adhere one on each side. Stamp fireplace image using black ink on white cardstock. Diecut with oval die and color with Copic markers. Add oval frame on top of this image.
Page 4, die cut a double Blossom Corner from white cardstock and the last page has a single Blossom corner. Both the double and single are pockets, only add glue to 3 sides. Die cut tags from designer paper using the luggage and tags die, add bakers twine. Cut a panel of your choice to tuck into the pocket. Add a poinsettia to the top right.
The back cover has another piece of ribbon glued between layers allowing you to tie the "book" closed. Add Nuvo Carnation Pink drops throughout book as shown on die cuts. Allow to dry.

Instructions: The finished size of this slider card is 6 1/2" x 5 1/4"(17 cm x 13.5 cm) Taking the white cardstock make a card base. Cut 10 1/2" x 5 1/4" (27 cm x 13.5 cm) and make two 2" (5 cm x 2 cm) folds along the longer edge. Cut a slider at 1.65" x 3.65" (4.2 cm x 9.3 cm) the card front cut at 3.85" x 5.85" (14.9 cm x 9.8 cm).
Find the pink coloured designer paper with the music print. Cut the matting a little smaller than the white cardstock. Adhere all to the card base. Find the designer paper with the white music print from the collection and use this to cover the box. You will find the die to fit the hole size in the Cut Mat Create set. Adhere the paper to the box shape then die cut the hole with the die. Don't forget to tape the die in place!
Ink the hole edges with the Victorian Velvet ink. Find the background paper used inside the shadow box in the collection. It is the oval shaped card front print with the pink poinsettias, berries and holly leaves. Cut to fit the box size. Fussy cut a few poinsettias from the papers and adhere with foam 3D dots to the side of the oval.
Die cut four sentiments and four fancy borders from the white cardstock. Apply the crystal clear to all die cuts and allow to dry. Adhere 2 of the border die cuts to the inside sides of the box, one on each side. Continue to secure the box shape with the background in place.
Adhere the box to the card front using hot glue. Take the remaining 2 prepared borders, adhere on the outside of the shadow box, on either sides. Adhere a fussy cut poinsettia flower cluster along the box of the opening.
Stamp using Victorian Velvet ink on white cardstock die cut 3 double small size poinsettias and diecut. Colour using same ink and daubers, shape using the Deluxe Flower shaping kit. Place them on top of the flower cluster to the right and onto the card foot base. Apply the Wedgwood blue gloss to the flower centres. Put aside to dry.
Taking the Cut Mat Create die set, find the leaf swirl and die cut 2, colour and shape. Adhere under the poinsettias on each side. Adhere the sentiment layers together, to create a thicker 3d piece and then adhere across the box front. Make the triple bow and adhere to the top of the box with the glue dot. To finish apply the Diamond Stickles to the flower petal tips and centres.

Die cut with coordinating dies, shape using deluxe flower shaping kit, then I glued some Eiskristals in it.
I also stamped, the coral, a seahorse with black ink on white cardstock and diecut with coordinating dies and colored images. I used a quote from the designer paper for the front, cut and matted with another layer of designer paper.

For the second page I cut out an extra circle of the small Circle die set The biggest one with the scallop and the 3th one, if you cut them together you get a frame now glue this on your 2nd page and make dots with the white pearl pen. Stamp, color and cut the jelly fish, put some eiskristals on it and glue him on top of the frame, decorate the page also with those Eiskristals. Put some clear drops on the acetate, and cover the back with the White cardstock.
For the 3rd page, I stamped a fish with gold embossing powder colored, cut it and I put it on the page glue some acetate behind it, then on the back I glued a piece of Coral and then the cover with white cardstock, on top of the acetate some clear drops.
For the 4th page I made another fish, I cut out some shells from the paper and put them on glue dots so that they look 3D, behind it I put a piece of coral then acetate on the back, clear drops and white cardstock on the back.
For the last page I only used a piece of the paper with a nice image, I decorated it with Eiskristals, and clear dots.

Emma Lou has a wonderful tutorial on creating plumeria here
For tips on how to create a layered card and shadow boxes check out this video here
Instructions: The 6 x 6" circle card comes with the circles already cut in the card base panels. Sort the panels with the largest circle on top and nesting to the smallest circle. Select the papers from the Tropical Paradise Collection that you want to use on each panel. You may want to coordinate the panels that face each other when each page is opened. The Circles Card is 6 x 6" so I cut my Tropical Paradise paper at 5 3/4 x 5 3/4". This will provide a 1/8" border around the edges. Sponge the edges of the paper with Peanut Brittle Ink. The paper was applied to the panels that would be on the right hand side. The Basic Circle Large Die was secured in the precut circle with repositional tape. This process was repeated for each panel on the right with the appropriate nesting die. The last page was a solid 5 3/4 x 5 3/4" panel without a circle.
The right sided panels were applied to the top of the bookbinding flap of the card base with double sided tape. The designer paper was then adhered to the left side of each panel. Secure the die in the appropriate circle opening and then sandwich the page with the die between two cutting plates. The rest of the pages will hang off the foot edge of the cutting plate. Doing it in this order allows the 1/8" margin to be consistent for each page. I did not have any problem running the die through the panels with my Vagabond 2. The bulk of the panels will not have any pressure because only the panel with the die will be sandwiched by the cutting plates.
The front panel had the eyelet die cut with apricot cardstock by nesting the eyelet and the next size smaller together. The eyelet trim was added to the top of the circle. Stickles were applied to the eyelet embellishment. I added a decorative paper to the back of my card but that is totally optional.
The flamingos, cockatoo and various leaves were stamped with black ink on white cardstock. They were colored with the following Copic color combos (Cockatoo - C1, C2, C3, Y11, RY21, YR23, YR27, and black colored pencil, Flamingo - RV10, RV23, YR00, YR18, YR21, YR23, C1, C3, C5, C7, Leaves - G40, G46, YG17, YG11, YG61, YG63, YG67). Each image was die cut with the coordinating die. Additional images were cut 3 times from green cardstock and adhered with dries clear glue for strength. The images were applied to the card base with double sided mounting tape.
The plumeria were stamped with Abandoned Coral Distress Ink. The flowers were sponged with the Abandoned Coral ink. The leaves were already colored with Copic markers but the edges were also sponged with Cottage Ivy Ink. The flowers and leaves were shaped with the Deluxe Flower Shaping Kit. Clear Crackle was applied to the leaves and petals and sprinkled with frosting power. The leaves and flowers were heat set. The flowers were applied with a glue gun.
The tunnel card was embellished with rhinestones.

Learn how to shape the Sunrise lily flowers here
Instructions: To make this 6" x 6" layered card start by choosing the paper that you want to use. I am using the Sunrise Lily Paper Collection. Trim the paper you selected for the panels down to 5 3/4" x 5 3/4" and center the correct size circle die in the center. Tip: To ensure that I was die cutting in the correct place I placed the paper onto the panel and from the backside traced around the circle opening. Then taking 2 panels I die cut both and then trimmed them down to size. Then, simply repeat this for every layer.
Once you've accomplished that, now you can start decorating! All of the images I used were stamped on white card stock using Watering Can ink before die cutting with the matching dies. The sunrise lily images and sunrise lily flowers were colored with Pebbles Metallic Cream Chalks and then shaped with the Deluxe Flower Shaping Kit. Finally I accented the stamens with Hot Mama Prills.

Instructions: Construct 5 X 7" layered card (White) then cut designer paper for each side of each page. Distress all the edges of all pages. Sort the panels with the largest oval on top and nesting to the smallest oval. Select the papers from Festive Holly Collection that you want to use on each panel. You may want to coordinate the panels that face each other when each page is opened. To create the windows, tape down the selected designer papers back to back, align the Eyelet Oval and Basic Large Die and run through the die cutting machine. The papers were glued to all the pages on all the sides using appropriate nesting oval die, except the last page which is solid. I also cut an oval frame on white cardstock using two oval dies.
The back side of the album has a pocket which can hold tags for journaling and photo mats. A decorative border was cut from a smooth white card stock which is then glued on the top of the tags and photo mats. On the second last page, cut some tags, layer them outwards as shown and tie a seam binding ribbon (painted using Festive Berry) to add an extra accent to the project.
The images from Wheel and Classic Wedding Bells Cling Stamp Set is stamped with black archival and colored using Zig Clean Clear Markers. Die cut the images using their coordinating dies.

For tips on how to create a layered card and shadow boxes check out this video here
Instructions: The finished size of this slider tunnel card is 8 1/2" x 1" (13.5 cm x 15 cm) Click here to see the inside pages of this layered book.
The card front for this slider card is 5 1/2" x 7" (14 cm x 17.7 cm). Once you have made the card base, find the matting paper in the paper collection. Cut this a little smaller than the card base. You will only need to cover the card front 1" (2 cm) down as the tunnel card book will be adhered to the rest of the card front base. Cut from the design paper 7" x 1" (17.7 cm x 2.4 cm) for the tunnel card book spine. Using the Mowed Lawn, ink all the edges of the design paper that will be showing. Adhere the prepared design paper in place. Put aside until you have completed the tunnel book card. Adhere the design paper to the tunnel book card spine, covering the spine and a little on the front.
Here starts the fun! How to make the whole in the pages: Chose two papers for each page remembering you have a main page and a top page which I did not decorate for this card. Once the pages have been chosen and are cut to size, place the page onto the design paper and trace around the whole. Find the die to fit the oval whole and tape in place before die cutting. Place the tape to the inside of the oval in case the tape rips the paper when taking it off, then it will not show. Tape well as you do not want this to move in your machine! Emboss the papers you want embossed with the embossing folders. You can use either wet glue or double side tape to adhere the pages together and into the bookbinding.
This project was started with the front page then went to the back of the book and worked forward. You can do what ever suits you. Note, there is no oval hole in the front page because it is covered; this is so it will look like a book cover.
Take the largest oval die with the fancy edge and cut out from the front page. Cut a smaller oval. Cut a few extra from white card stock and adhere together so the ovals will be very firm and will not bend.
