Golf Adventure/Fun

Hello Crafty Friends.

My card adventure today started with the need for a card that had some blue, involved golf, and was super fun.  So I dug out these 4 stamps:

Brush Golf Cart

Bitsy Bumble Bee

Picture Perfect Day

Woven Plaid 

I didn't really worry about lining up the plaid and I promise there was some blue on it too (you can see it if you look closely - lol) - I was going for a kind of distressed look for the background. This was a quick and simple card and that bee added the element of fun don't you think?

Hope you are having a wonderful week!

Hugz,

Happy Mother's Day

 Good morning crafty friends!

Today I'm sharing 2 Mother's Day cards.  First is using the Violet Teacup, Woven Plaid, and the new You Were Right (bottom part, the next card shows the whole stamp).

I used a new Pink Fresh background die and a stitched frame die from Lawn Fawn with tiny pearls to finish this card.

I used my mom's favorite color combo on both cards today.

The frames and teacup are popped up.

My next card features the Woven Plaid and the You Were Right  sentiment.

The plaid on both cards was embellished with green and purple glitter pens.

I used stitched rectangle dies to cut out the panels and finished with a purple glitter pen to faux stitch thread and some rhinestones in the corners.

Thanks for visiting!

Decorated With Love

 Good morning friends!

Today I have made a Z-Fold card for Easter.

I used the Woven Plaid stamp with a variety of Easter colors to make the background pieces.  The foreground bunny is Vincent Van Bunny  and the background bunny is Cute Bunny with Egg.

I made the grass using Martha Stewarts grass border punch.

The sentiment is Decorated with Love Easter Greeting.

My next card features the cute little Chick In Nest.

I used Springtime Easter Greeting for the sentiment.

Give it a couple of fun curved borders and there you go.

Curved border dies by Spellbinders.

I also added a line of pearls under the border.

Hope you like these 2 cards! Now go get crafty!

Happy St. Patrick's Day

Hello everyone!

Now Valentine's Day is over time to start thinking of all those St. Patrick's cards you are wanting to make either to give to kids, grandkids or hey, just to make them! LOL!

Here is a couple of fun ones for you (you can find this green frog anywhere!!!) 👀

For the background I used an embossing folder with shamrocks then I made a plaid strip (actually did 2 at once) with the Woven Plaid and 3 colors of green ink. 

For the image I stamped the little frog, Toad Made For You, first then masked him and stamped the St. Patrick's Pot of Gold.  I die cut him with a cross-stitch circle die and put everything together.

For my next card I used the other plaid strip I made on top of the same shamrock embossing folder, this time on white,

I stamped the little frog first, masked then stamped the Shamrock Circle, cut it out with a circle die then mounted it on another circle done in green.  I put a dot of green Stickles in the center of each shamrock.

I stamped the Top Hat St. Patrick's Day on a separate piece of white and cut it out with an oval die.

After stamping the Top Hat I sponged the edge with green ink.  The sentiment and the circle are popped up.  

Hope you liked today's cards!!

Go get crafty!

Thankful Thoughts

Hello Crafty Friends.

Today, I am showcasing another totally fabulous new greeting:  Season of Thanks Oval.  I embossed the greeting with Versamark and Ranger White Embossing Powder.  I also added in two Open Leaf images done with Copper Embossing Powder. I love the Fall look.

I haven't used the Woven Plaid Background stamp much, but I plan to use it more as it was so easy to do the plaid background with it.  I used Distress Oxides and I love how it came out. 

I have been adding some fun Fall decorations to my back porch and kitchen - Fall is finally showing up here in Alabama.  

Hugz,

Nancy
