Wedding Cake Congrats Card

 Hello Everyone,

Today, I have a wedding card that I made for a friend.  I used a really cute cake (Stampin' Up) stamp that I have used for birthdays too. The cake was colored with Copic markers and die cut.  The background is a decorative paper.  I added a paper doily, tulle, ribbon, a floral pick, and a sentiment.

I will see you again soon>

Wreath Die Cut Cards

 Hello Everyone,

Today I would like to share a few cards that were made using a die cut wreath.  On the first card I distressed the wreath with green ink. The second card has a dry embossed background. 

The first card has a decorative paper background.

The second card has a dry embossed background.

That is the last group of cards that I made using the Natures prints stamp set.  Really had fun with this set and enjoyed working with all the different images and die cut shapes. 

See you next time!!

Foliage Cards

 Hello Everyone,

Back today with more cards to share using the Natures Prints stamp set (Stampin' Up).  I stamped in different ink colors and die cut some of the images.  I layered the images onto decorative paper or dry embossed backgrounds.

Some die cut gold shapes were added to the last two cards.  

So glad you stopped by today!  See you next time!!

Fern and Foliage Cards

 Hello Everyone!

I am back today with a few more cards.  The cards were made for a card drive. You can find info on the card drive on the Winter Wonderland blog. 

The stamps used in the cards are from a gorgeous stamp set called Natures Prints (Stampin' Up).

I made quite a few cards with this stamp set.  It has so much scope that I could not stop........

Here are two that I made using the fern image as the focal point.  The first card has collage type decorative paper that I stamped on with other stamps in the set. I also did a little bit of distressing with Distress ink.

On the second card, I started with cream cardstock and repeatedly stamped the fern and that paint spot looking image. I also stamped and die cut two fern fonds and added those to the stamped background.

I just love this stamp set and I made lots of cards with it. I will be sharing more of the cards in future posts.  See you next time!

Simple and Easy Cards

Hello Everyone,

Today I wanted to share a card design that is very quick and easy to make. And fun.  The vibrant colored papers, large sentiment, and pretty ribbon make a big statement.

The cards were made for the Cards from the Heart card drive.  I made 16 of the cards and just a couple are shown below.

This card is also a great design to use all those odds and ends of decorative papers you have in your stash.

Happy you stopped by today. See you next time for more crafty card projects.

Squirrely Owls

 Hello Everyone,

I am back today with more cards!  This set of cards with the squirrely Owls were made for a card drive. I think the owls are just so goofy looking. They really make me smile. 

Information on the card drive can be found here.

The owls were stamped with Archival ink and colored with markers.  Then some of the owls were fussy cut and layered on with dimensional adhesive. Others were stamped directly onto white cardstock.

So glad you stopped by today.  I have a few more of the cards for the card drive that I will share in future posts. Hope you are having a lovely day.

Bike Collage

 Hello Everyone,

Today I have a few cards made with a stamp set I have had for years and haven't really worked with it that much.   So, I decided to get the stamps out and make a few cards for a card drive. The Card drive has been organized by Winter Simms.  You can see the details on her blog Winter wonderland.

Stamp from Stampin' Up

I stamped the image in different ink colors and layered with papers and cardstock.  I did a little bit of shading with Copic markers.

Glad you stopped by today.  I hope you are having a great day!!  See you next time with more cards.
