Gift Card and Candy Thank You Gift

Happy Friday! 

Today I am back with another project that showcases some awesome stamps and dies from 

Pink & Main.

I decided to make a 3D project today based off of a tutorial by 

Dawn Griffith that can be found HERE.

 I used the Hello Sweet & Florals stamp sets along with the Sweet Dies.

I followed the tutorial to make my box. I stamped flowers and leaves from the Florals set around the border of my image panel, making sure to go off of the edge for interest. I stamped the "You're So" from the Hello Sweet stamp set and then used the Sweet Die and added some white highlights with a gel pen. I finished it off with a seam binding bow. I think this makes such a sweet little Thank You gift!

Here is a look with the gift card out:

Sheer and Clear Class Day 1

Hey guys! I hope you are having a fabulous Wednesday!

Tonight I have a card that I would like to share with you that I made for my homework for Day 1 of the Sheer and Clear Online Card Class.

I absolutely fell in love with the example that was shown to us by Debby Hughes. Her card was so pretty and elegant and I immediately knew if I could create something similar, it would make the perfect card for my mom for Mother's Day. 

Here is what I created:

I kept my card really close to Debby Hughes' card. I love how she attached the vellum with a mini clothes pin. For my card, I used some water color cardstock and put some color down and then misted it with some gold shimmer spray. I then die cut the "mom".  I heat embossed my circle and the "love you" with some white embossing powder and then placed the "mom" underneath. I used a punch to cut out my leaves and then attached everything with the clothes pin, I finished my card with some sequins, some butterflies and some crochet thread. I love how my card turned out! 

A big thanks to Debby for the inspiration!

I hope you have a great crafty day!

Happy Friday!

Today I am back with another card that showcases one of the adorable stamps from
 Pink & Main!

For my card, I used the Hot Dog stamp set.

I stamped that cute little doggie onto some white cardstock and then colored him in with my Copic markers. I used a circle die to cut it out, stamped my greeting and fussy cut the tennis ball out (also in the Hot Dog set) and adhered my image layer onto a larger circle cut from some Kraft cardstock. I cut a strip of plaid paper and notched the ends to form a banner and attached that to my card front and then placed my circle piece onto that. I finished off my card with a few enamel dots and some white doodling with my gel pen.

Paper Play Sketches #6

Hi everyone! 

Today I am sharing the new sketch challenge that has started at

Paper Play Sketches.

This Week's Sketch:

My Design Team project based on the above sketch:

I decided to make another birthday card to have on hand. I used that sweet little elephant from the Birthday Celebrations stamp from Simon Says Stamp. Isn't it darling? I thought some bright papers would be festive and fun for a birthday card so these patterns from Doodlebug were the perfect compliment. I finished off my card with some sequins. I think it turned out super cute!

Card Harmony using Abby's Spring Showers

Happy Monday!

I hope you had a fabulous weekend!

Today Kimberly and I are back with another Card Harmony post.

Here is a link to my blog post that tells a little bit about what Card Harmony is all about. 

We basically take turns purchasing stamps each month and then we both make a card using the same stamp set to see how alike or different our cards turn out. We add a little twist each month though to make it a little more challenging. 

This month we are using the stamp set from Simon Says Stamp called,

Abby's Spring Showers.

No twist this month.

Here is the card that I created using the stamp set:

I stamped my image onto some white cardstock and then masked my image so that I could create the background. I used distress inks for the sky and grass. Once that was done, I removed the masks and used my Copics to color in my image. I added some little polka dots to her skirt and socks with my white gel pen. I finished my card by adding some trendy twine and popping up my image layer with some foam adhesive.

Be sure to check out Kimberly's blog, Kimberly's Crafty Spot to see what she made
