For Sarita...

You asked me where I got the heart pin from. It is from Heidi Grace and I found them at my Big Lots. They came in a package of pink and blue ones. I hope you can find them!

Anniversary

I finally got to play with March's colors from Papertrey Ink. I LOVE them! The flowered paper is stamped using Boxes, Bags and Tags from PTI and the frame and sentiment are from Sweet Love, also PTI. I cut the oval from my Nesties (love, love, love these, SO worth the money) and I embossed with my cuttlebug too. The ribbon is Spring Moss from PTI as is the dark pink cardstock (berry sorbet) and strip of patterend paper. I used my corner rounder to make the scallops and my cropadile to make the holes. I added Stardust Stickles to the swirls on the frame and stamped the sentiment in Versafine Onyx Black ink. The other ink used is Berry Sorbet, Sweet Blush and Spring Moss. Thanks for looking!

Bloom


This is a card I made to send as a RAK. The big swirly flower is from Fancy Pants, the smaller flowers are from PTI, Bags, Boxes & Tags, the sentiment on the cover is CHF, Shilhouette Blooms, and the inside sentiment is from PTI, Spiral Bouquet. The dotted border is PTI, Faux Ribbon. I used my Sor-Pal for the embossed lines and the pearl flower centers were a $1 find at Target. Thanks for looking!

Mini Blessings Book





This was fun to make. It was a gift for a friend. I used coasters from Chilies and covered them with PTI Daily Blessings Paper and used Cornish Heritage Silhouette Blooms I and II stamps for all the stamping. Some of the images I cut out, some I used Versamark ink and chalked in and others just plain stamping. I used Versamark Onyx Black Ink and Pebbles Chalk. I bound it with my Bind It All. Thanks for looking!

I'm Back!

I hope to be back to posting regularly again...for those of you who don't know I had my daughter on March 24th and have been taking time to adjust to life with a newborn and 2 year old. It's been fun:) I am very much starting to miss my crafting time though, so I hope to be back at it. Thankfully I have the best husband who supports my hobby and gives me time to do it. Here are a few cards I made right before baby came.This one uses PTI Everyday Blessings paper. The flowers are cut from my Cuttlebug die and the thank you stamp is from Inkadinkado. The edge is done with a Martha Stewart punch. I used Palette Burnt Umber ink.
This was the first time I'd used the grasshopper from Green Thumb (PTI) and it's so cute! The sentiment is also from Green Thumb. The top polka dot background is from Polka Dot Basics (PTI) and the dotted edging along the ribbon is from Faux Ribbon (PTI). The little leaf that is in each of the scallops on the square is a small stamp from the square Borders and Corners set (PTI) The bottom part is embossed with Swiss Dot embossing folder.

This card was fun to make. I used my Beloved Blossoms set (CTMH) to make all the patterned paper. The Thank You sentiment is from Mixed Messages (PTI). I used my Scor-Pal to emboss the border on the card. The middle flower is popped up on foam adhesive.

Thanks for looking and commenting! It means alot:)
