Love ya Shaker Card

Hi crafty friends!
I hope you are having a fabulous Saturday!

Today I am back to share a card that I created using some fabulous stamps and dies that can be found in the Dies R Us Store. 

I decided to go with a shaker for this card and the Neat & Tangled Heart of Gold die was just what I was looking for.

This was really simple to do. I simply used the die to cut out the heart shape from the center of my main cardstock panel.  I placed some acetate on the back of my card and surrounded the back with foam tape to hold all my shaker bits in. I placed a scrap piece of white cardstock onto the back to lock in the shaker pieces and to make it easier to place it onto my black card base. I used the Neat & Tangled Heart of Gold die once again and cut out a piece from some black cardstock to place on top of the window. I wanted the front of my shaker piece to have that fun geometric look to it. For my greeting, I used some white embossing powder and heat embossed this fun saying from the Lawn Fawn Big Scripty Words stamp set. I added some doodles around the edge of the card front and attached some sequins for a bit more interest. 

Here is a quick peek (with links) to the products that I used on my card today that can be found in the Dies R Us store:

Sketch N Scrap July's 2nd Card Sketch

Hey crafty friends!!

It's Thursday and that means it's almost the weekend!!! Woot Woot!!

Today starts a new card sketch challenge over at 

Sketch N Scrap.

Here is a look at the second card sketch for July courtesy of Lisa:

and here is my take on the above sketch:

When I first looked at the sketch, butterflies immediately came to mind. I have no idea why but I went with it lol! I decided I wanted to have a soft color pallete to go along with the butterflies. When I came across the paper in the Cedar Lane paper pad from Pink Paislee, I knew they were perfect for what I had in mind for my card. I used some dies from My Creative Time for the stitched card mats and layered them onto my white card base and added a fun little scallop border. I die cut my butterflies using two different pink papers in the stack and added them onto my card. I cut a strip of vellum and added my hello. I cut my hello again from some fun foam and adhered it the the back so that I could pop up my vellum without any adhesive peeking through. I finished off my card with some glossy white Nuvo drops scattered here and there. I love how it turned out! 

Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by and take a look at my latest creation!

I appreciate it so much!

Hello crafty friends!!

I hope you are having a wonderful Wednesday!

 Today I am back with another project that showcases some of those awesome 

 Pink and Main stamps and dies.

I thought it would be fun to make a little gift/treat bag using the The Scoop stamp set.

I cut my bag out using my Cricut and assembled it and put it aside for a bit. I created a tag by cutting a piece of fun dotted cardstock from the Beach Babe paper pad and notching the end. I took another piece of cardstock and used one of the circles from the Stitched Circle dies to cut it out. I added it to my banner piece with foam tape. I stamped out that sweet little girl from the The Scoop stamp set, colored her in with my Copics and used the coordinating Scoop dies to cut her out. I glued her to the circle and added the greeting along the bottom. I cut out two holes in the top of my tag and attached it to my bag with some crochet thread. I finished it off with a few sequins scattered about.

PDE Challenges #182 Guest Designer

Hi crafty friends!

I hope you are all having a wonderful Wednesday!!

I am very happy to share that this week I am a guest designer for 

Pause Dream Enjoy Challenges!

This week the challenge is....

Down On The Farm.

I decided to make a fun little box to hold some candy for the challenge.

I purchased this cute little chicken coop box from SVGCuttingFiles and put it all together, being sure to ink the edges of all my kraft colored cardstock. I decided my coop needed a chick so I used one of the cute little chicken stamps from the June 2017 Peachy Keen Stamps stamp club set. I added adhesive to one half of her and adhered her to the coop. I also used one of the sentiments in the stamp set to place over the doorway. I filled the inside with some paper shred and some mini peanut butter cups (candy was hubby's choice lol). I think it turned out so super cute!

Be sure to stop by the PDE Challenges blog to see all the fabulous creations the DT made! 

I hope you will be inspired to join in and play along :)
