Lanscape Cards

Hello Everyone

I stamped these landscape cards.  This is made with a stamp set where the elements are separate stamps. This allows for lots of different placement of each element.  I stamped a lot with this one because it was just fun to try different looks.

Stamp set: Hills of Tuscany from Stampin' Up

 Very pretty!  I enjoyed making the cards and I sent most of them already.  LOL

See you soon!!

When life Gives you Lemons....

 Hello Everyone

I made some cute cards with lemon die cuts and a mason jar stamp and die. 

I also used a paper doily on one of the cards. 

Fun cards. I will use for all occasions cards. 

See you next time!

Floral All Occasion cards

 Hello Everyone

I have a set of floral cards today.  The floral images were stamped on white cardstock with light colors of ink.  I added arch and oval die cuts with pretty papers to put together the cards.

Stamped set: Inked and Tiled from Stampin' Up

Very fun to make! Great for any type of card. Could even be used for wedding or anniversary cards.

See you next time!

Masculine Mallard Cards

 Hello Everyone,

I used a stamp set called Feathered Flight to make this collection of masculine cards.  Dry embossing folders were used on some of the cards to make an interesting background.  I also fussy cut some of the ducks. I colored the mallard head two different ways. First was using a marker to color on the actual stamp before stamping. Second was to color the head after it was stamped. Worked pretty well either way. 

Nice set of cards to use for birthdays, thank you, and thinking of you. See you next time!!

More Bottle Cards

 Hello Everyone!

Today's post highlights more of the cards I made using a bottle stamp and punch.  I used punched bottles as masks too to make interesting backgrounds.  I also stamped directly onto paper. Also punched out bottles and added them to backgrounds. Spray inks and distress inks were used to add color. 

So this was a fun project to work on and I ended up with lots of really different cards.  So glad you stopped by today.  See you next time!

Bottle Cards

Hello Everyone!

Today I have a collection of cards I made with a bottle stamp and punch.  I used punched bottles as masks too to make interesting backgrounds.  I also stamped directly onto paper. Also punched out bottles and added them to backgrounds. Spray inks were used to add color. 

Card below has a reverse mask technique.  I put the punched bottles down on the paper and sprayed the inks.  Then removed the punched bottle masks to reveal paper.

I have more of the bottle cards.  This was one of those projects where I wanted to see how the stamp looked in many colors and techniques.  So, I just kept stamping and stamping. Like I often do. LOL

See you next time for more of the bottle cards.

Bird cards!

Hello Crafty Friends,

Today I have a collection of bird cards I made for friends.  I mad the cards for them to send out. All the cards use the same stamp set.  I did some fussy cutting and made die cuts for the backgrounds.

 The cards turned out quite pretty and my besties were really pleased to receive them and look forward to sending them out.  Share the joy!
