It's MAMBI week at Epiphany Crafts!!!

Hello there!  So happy you stopped by to celebrate our partnership week with Me and My Big Ideas (MAMBI).  When I received my box of goodies from MAMBI, I was giddy with excitement!  Not only was the box packed to the brim with fun products, but I loved everything that was in there.  I made several layouts and cards and still have lots left for more fun projects

For my first project I decided to make a layout.  In general I do not use pocket page style layouts, but the Mambi 3x4 cards made perfect layering panels for my layout.  The Epiphany Crafts Chevron Tool and Banner tool added the perfect embellishments to complete the layout.


For my second layout, I again used the 3 x 4 pocket page cards as layers.  The puffy stickers by MAMBI added just the right splash of color.

I loved the MAMBI chalkboard embellishments, which were a perfect match for my layout.
 
The Epiphany Crafts Heart Tool made it super simple to add matching embellishments to the page.

I used the pocket page style to create this paper layout.  The 3 x 4 instant cards make it really quick and easy to create a layout.

I switched gears and tried to make some cards.  Remember the instant cards can make quick and easy cards, add a few Epiphany Crafts shape tools and bubble caps and your friends will have a card to cherish!
Here are a few quick and simple cards.





Thanks MAMBI!  I had so much fun mixing your products with Epiphany Crafts tools!

Epiphany Crafts - Ruby Rock It Week

Hi there!  It's Ruby Rock-it Week here at Epiphany Crafts and I had the honor of pairing Ruby Rock It "Oriental Chic" collection with my Epiphany Crafts Butterfly Tool!! 

Hello, gorgeous butterfly tool!

The Ruby Rock It Oriental Chic collection goes perfectly with the new Epiphany Crafts Butterfly tool.  The butterflies look great with the butterfly embellishments included in the kit.   Simply use different pattern papers from the collection in the butterfly tool and top with a coordinating bubble cap.  To give even more added interest, add a little stamping to the wooden embellishments.

Don't be afraid to mix and match the fun patterns in the Oriental Chic collection.

Stop by the Epiphany Crafts blog all week for more Ruby Rock It / Epiphany Crafts inspiration!

Epiphany Crafts and Hello Summer Layout featuring Heidi Swapp Favorite Things - Hybrid Layout

It's June already!  Can you believe it?  June brings summertime activities and lots of sunshine and warm days!  Which brings me to my project for the day.

Just the other day my son was outside trying to teach my golden retriever the "retrieving" part of fetch.  You would think it comes naturally, right?  Nope... she wants to fetch it, then have you chase her to get it back.  I caught this shot of him patiently working with her "Drop it" command.

I knew it was the perfect photo for my summer fun layout.

The Epiphany Crafts Shape Studio Round 25 was just what I needed to add some flair buttons to my layout.  You can see above I added five flair buttons.  I also used the newly released Heidi Swapp Digital Collection called "favorite things".  Even though it's digital, I printed and cut all of the elements out using my Silhouette Cameo to create a hybrid layout.  I have the actual products, but being the hoarder I am, I just can't bear to use them...   what if I run out?!!?! 

Begin with a blank 12 x 12 paper in white.  Add watercolors to match your papers.  Using a die cut machine cut a circled background sized so that the circles are approximately 1".  Begin layering embellishments and photos.  Using the Shape Studio Round 25 tool and bubblecaps make several flair buttons to coordinate.  Place them randomly in the circle background.  Add your title and you're finished.

Enjoy your summer!

Graduation Card/Gift Idea with Epiphany Crafts and the Silhouette

Hello!  It's graduation season across the country and the invitations to graduation parties have started coming in.  I have a couple of really great friends who have kids graduating high school this year, my son just graduated college and it seems like I can't make enough graduation cards to stay ahead.

I made this fun interactive card using my Silhouette and of course the Epiphany Crafts Shape Studio Hexagon tool, bubble caps and charm to add the 2014 to the tassle.  The bottom of the cap doubles as a box for the charm bracelet I made for this particular graduate.

This is an all in one card, gift box and she can add the 2014 charm to her bracelet if she wants.

The top of the cap opens for the greeting.  Here I simply used the Epiphany Crafts Shape Studio Star tool to punch out a few stars from silver glitter paper.


I made her a charm bracelet as part of her gift.  What girl doesn't love a little bling? 
Simply use any of the Epiphany Crafts Shape Tools, Epoxies and Charms to create unique charms to fit your graduates needs.  Add them to a charm chain bracelet with a simple O-ring.

For the above charm, cut out a small heart from book paper and add it to the paper before adding the bubble cap.

This is the Epiphany Crafts Shape Studio Round 14 tool, charm and bubble cap.  Simply use a small piece of pattern paper in your shape studio tool.
Don't forget to use your Epiphany Crafts Shape Studio Tools to personalize your graduation cards and gifts!
