Hello Beautiful

Hello Crafty Friends!  It's Wednesday and we're almost to May...wow, where does the time go.  When I was a child, I couldn't wait to grow up, wishing time would pass quickly.  Now I'm all grown up, I would love time to slow down.  Funny how that works.

I have a quick share today featuring more of those Puffy Stickers that were found in my stash.  I'm keeping true to my resolution of using things I already have on hand and I thought these would make a sweet and simple card.


The design is simple, I tore some masking paper for the rough edges and blended Distress Inks across the middle of the panel.  I did a bit of splattering with Dina Wakely White Acrylic Gloss Spray and adhered the Butterflies.


The sentiment is from a Kelly Creates Stamp Set and it's been heat embossed.  The stamps are very large and perfect for scrapbooking pages, learning hand lettering or making a bold statement on a card front.  Lastly, I've added some color shifting sequins for additional interest.  

That's all for today.  Until next time, Happy Crafting!

New Challenge at Inspiration Station for 21 June 21

Hello and Happy Monday Friends!  It's the 3rd Monday of the Month and that equals a new challenge has started at The Inspiration Station.  Not to mention the date is 21 June 21 and the start of Summer Solstice!  The inspiration picture this month is:


This inspiration picture can be intrepreted in so many different ways and I found this challenge interesting.  I immediately knew what I was going to create for my design team project when I saw the picture.



I went with a Monochrome theme using images from the Altenew Trendy Circles Stamp Set and a sentiment from a Kelly Creates Stamp and Lettering Set.  A sweet and simple design that would be great for a masculine card and definitely worth repeating with color.

Please join us for the bi-weekly challenge at The Inspiration Station.  The Prize this round is a sweet Unicorn Coffee mini stamp set from Brutus Monroe. The inspiration photo is for your intrepretation so have fun with it and play along!

Until next time, Happy Crafting!

Slimline Stenciled Birthday

The weekend is here, Happy Saturday!  Today's make and share is a traditional sized Slimline Birthday card featuring stenciling, stamping, heat embossing and coloring.


I wanted to create a traditional sized slimline (4"x8") card for my newest crafty items, a Bo Bunny Wildflowers Stamp and Vintage Screen stencil from Fun Stampers Journey.  I started with a stenciled panel created using Worn Lipstick, Festive Berries and Squeezed Lemonade distress oxide inks and a light hand.  I stamped and heat embossed the image over top and colored in with Spectrum Noir Alcohol markers along with the sentiment, which is from a Kelly Creates set.  Lastly, added yellow sequins for that bit of sparkle that I must have!  

Until next time, Happy Crafting!

Primrose - Shine Bright

Today's card features Primrose, a digi stamp from Digi Doodle Studios.  She's lovely and part of the Flower Girls Collection.  I colored her with Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers and used designer papers from the Pink & Main Summer Splash 6x6 paper pad.  I fussy cut her out and lifted her up on foam pads for a bit of dimension.


This card measures A2 (4.25" x 5.5") and the sentiment is from a Kelly Creates Stamp Set.  For a final touch, I've added some sequins and used a Gelly Roll Sparkle pen to accent the flower centers.  

She's lovely and is enjoying a Summer Day with her Big Hat adorned with Primrose and her basket of flowers.  Thanks for visiting and until next time, Happy Crafting!
