Sketch #5!! Are you ready to participate? I’d love to see what you can create with this as your start. I think it’s a simple start that you can take in any direction you desire. Two layers of paper (patterned or plain – you can use 5 1/4″ x 4″, and 5″ x 3 3/4″),…
I finally got to use this Online Exclusive set again – you know, the one I HAD TO HAVE – haha! It’s called Simply Sparkling and I love it – I paired it with the Sunny Days Sale-A-Bration DSP for a bold fun card. I started with a card base of Poppy Parade (4 ¼”…
This card is a fun way to celebrate someone’s special day. It pops open with a fun fold to make you and the recipient grin from ear to ear. Here are the measurements I used for this fun fold: Here is a video showing how it comes together: It’s so cute, right? That ice cream…
Here’s a nice and easy start to the week – a very quick birthday card that let’s that beautiful Flight & Airy DSP shine! I used a card base of Boho Blue (8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″, scored at 4 1/4″ on the long side) and a large DSP panel cut at 4″ x 5…
Another treat holder – this one holds a one of those little squishy things all the kids seems to love (and are probably the bane of every parents existence. Seriously – they pick up every piece of lint possible and look so grubby in an instant. But the kids seem to like them haha) Credit…
I scored some really cute pencils from Michael’s Craft Stores for my biggest kiddo to give out to his classmates this Valentine’s Day. Being me, I could not just throw them into a little baggy. It’s paper or it’s nothing – haha. I used the Most Adored Designer Series Paper to make a quick holder…
Let’s start the week off with another sketch. Here’s on that has some floral elements. I know I certainly have a lot of stamps, punches, and dies that are flowery and sprig-y. Is that a word? It is now. Here a sample I made based on the sketch: Bright and fun! What colors would you…
Here’s a nice little sketch for you today. I posted this on my social media feeds last week and then realized that I hadn’t sent it out to the blog-o-verse. The card front has a large panel (your choice – plain cardstock, patterned paper, embossed….). The center strip is sandwiched between two edged pieces of…
This card has a little bit of everything – masking, blending, die cutting . . .but it really is a simple one to make. I used the new Perennial Lavender Suite Collection – which unfortunately cannot be ordered in its entirety. It was so popular that certain products sold out. But you can still get…
One of the new products that I was excited about in the new Mini January to April catalog from Stampin’ Up! was the Thoughtful Moments Hybrid Embossing Folder: You can see that it has ten different sentiment cut outs and bunch of little fun shapes that can add some interest to your cards. I used…
