Sympathy Card

Hello!
Happy Saturday everyone!  

It seems that even though I love, love making cards, it is so hard for me to make a sympathy card. But thank goodness I have the supplies to do so. 


Click on the links to see the supplies used to make this card.






Started with a patterned paper from the Zoe Paper Pack.

Stamped the Sympathy sentiment from the  Sincere Expressions Stamp Set.

Attached to the front of the card base then attached a strip of Crystal Blue Cardstock and then I took a piece of Sorbet Cardstock and ran it through the Damask Embossing Folder.  I sanded the top to bring out the pattern a bit more then attached to the strip of the blue cardstock.

  I then took some Sweet Leaf Cardstock and using the Cricut Artistry Cartridge I cut the base of the flowers out.   I took those cute bases and put the leaf section through the Damask Embossing folder. I finished them out by sponging the edges with Sweet Leaf Ink Pad.  I then took some Canary Cardstock and cut out the matching flowers using the above Cricut cartridge and attached to the base. 

I then dug through my stash and found some black gems (discontinued) to put in the middle of the flowers. Done!  

Thanks for stopping by!  Hope your weekend is a great one!  Hugs!

Fun Birthday Card

Hello everyone!  I hope your weekend was wonderful!

Today's fun card is a simple birthday card or you can use it as a "congrats" type of card as well. 

I will list all the products used to make this card.  Just click on the links to see the products in detail and larger!

For the decorative paper I used Magical Paper package and for the circle cardstock I used Honey Cardstock and the blue under the red patterned paper I used Crystal Blue Cardstock.

I used a mini stamp set called Pinata Occasions and this cute set is only $2.95!  I then used the Doodled Designs Stamp Set around the Pinata stamp.   Then I took our fun new Medium Waterbrush and the palette of our beautiful Watercolor Paints and brushed a light blue color to the doodled edge. Colored the pinata with the wonderful ShinHan markers.   Attached all the pieces together and added a strip of the fun Silver Shimmer Trim under the Pinata and then added some sequins from the Magical Sequins set.  Done!

Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope your day is as fun as this stamp set! Hugs!

Workshop card #3 for May 2016

Hello there,

Here is another workshop card that we did:


As usual, click on the links in this post to see the stamp set and supplies used in greater detail. Most of the time the stamp set has more stamps than what is used on the card so don't forget to check out the link!

For the base of the card I used Whisper Cardstock and then I took a piece of White Daisy Cardstock and stamped the sentiment from A Bunch of Love Stamp Set using the Whisper Exclusive Ink Pad.



 Then I used the Chevron Embossing Folder over the top of the stamped image. Then I added  a piece of Whisper Thick Twine to the front and attached to the card base. 

I then took one of the dies from the Bunch of Love Thin Cuts Dies and cut the image out and then I took the matching stamp from the above Bunch of Love stamp set and using the Slate pigment ink pad from the Basic Mini Pigment Ink Set, I stamped the image and then embossed with Clear Embossing Powder.

I then took the Watercolor Pencils and using the brand new Small Watercolor Brush, I water colored  the flowers. I attached  the cut out image on top of the twine and then added some pretty sequins from the new Florence Sequins Embellishments.  

Thanks for stopping by today!  Have a great day!  Hugs!
