Hello and Happy Tuesday!

Are you guys ready for another fun challenge from the 

Krafty Girls Challenge Blog?

Krafty Girls #18---Music!

Create a paper project that is Music Inspired!

Here is the card that I created:

For my card, I used a file from the Silhouette Online Store titled,

Gramophone Recorder Love Cut Out Card

Design ID #37935

As soon as I saw this card in the store I fell in love with it!

I cut it out and then stamped that cute little sentiment on my card

and attached some ribbon and a bow.

It was so simple to create, since the silhouette did almost all the work, but I love the simplicity of it!

I hope you will head over to the 

Krafty Girls Challenge blog

You're A Great Catch!

Hi guys!

I hope your Saturday is off to a great start!

Today I get to share with you another project for the

 Joy's Life Design Team!

This week is all about the great outdoors!

As soon as I saw this cute little sentiment on the Wild Life Puns stamp set, I knew the card that I wanted to create.

Isn't that sentiment great?? I love it!!

For my card base, I cut out the center panel step card (design id # 39775) from the silhouette store. The bear holding the fish also came from the silhouette online store, design id #43388.

I added a button on each side along the bottom and threaded some hemp cording through the button holes. 

I stamped my sentiment using some Tuxedo Black ink from Memento.

Joy's Life Stamps stamp so wonderfully!!

Here is a close up of my sentiment:

Look at all the great sentiments on the Wild Life Puns set:

So cute and so many possibilities!

Altered Birdhouse

Hi everyone!

Happy Thursday!

Today I get to show you another project that uses that awesome

Craftwork Cards CANDi!

For my project, I decided to alter a birdhouse for a cute little home decor item.

I found this little birdhouse at my local craft store for $1.

It was unfinished wood, so I simply painted it white with some acrylic paint and let it dry. Once it was dry, I started embellishing. I added some patterned paper to the roof and then to cover the seam going down the middle, I simply added a piece of white cardstock that I folded in half and used a border punch to give it a decorative edge. Then I added some lace and string pearls to the front of my roof. I also added some pearls all along the bottom edge of the house. Then I simply punched out 3 butterflies and layered them on top of each other to give some dimension and added a flight trail with some glitter. For my finishing touch, I made that cute little flower using some Patchwork CANDi and added some leaves from a leaf punch.

Here is a side view picture:

Hello and Happy Tuesday!

Are you guys ready for another fun challenge from the 

Krafty Girls Challenge Blog?

Krafty Girls #17---Pinterest Inspired!

Create a card that you were inspired to make that you found on Pinterest.

Be sure to include a link to the original post on your blog post.

I don't know about you but I have a slight problem when it comes to hoarding Washi Tape.

I have quite a bit of it cause I see the patterns and think, "That's so cute! I need it!"

The problem with that is, I am unsure what to really do with it so it just sits in a container looking pretty. lol! When I found this card on pinterest from a blog titled I'm in Haven, I knew I wanted to recreate it and use up some of my hoarded Washi Tape :)

Here is my card that I created:

For my card, I changed up the colors and went with some bright summery colors and added a heart versus a flower. One of the things that caught my eye when I saw the original card, besides the Washi, were the score lines going in a diagonal fashion across the front of the card. 

I love it! It is so simple to make and took very little time to put together! Even better!

In case you missed it, here is the link to the original card that I got my inspiration from. :)
