Sorry I forgot your birthday...

A friend saw THIS card and asked if I could make her a set of the same design. Since the design was made I said sure. 

I used different designer series papers, colors and punches, but the basic design is the same on all of them. I hope she likes them!

Gnome Greetings Hi!

Today's card is for the current Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Saturday Challenge of Circles! 

I decided to use the Lots o' Dots Stencil with some Krafty Kolours Inks~ Salty Sea, Aqua Adventure and Totally Taupe,  for the background to the super cute Gnome Greetings stamp. He was a free with purchase stamp recently. 

I think I covered the challenge as there are circles everywhere! This little gnome is just so cute! I used different colors than I normally do and I really like how they turned out.

Thanks for stopping by and have a magnificent day!

Three for Tuesday- A Little Snarky

It's time for Three for Tuesday!! This week I'm using A Little Snarky stamp set from Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps. Such a super fun set!!

I had a hard time deciding which sentiment to use first, they are all so fun!! I decided to go with the "Sarcasm is my super power" first. I have several friends that I feel I could give this card to! LOL!

Next I had Annabelle help me decide which sentiment and she chose the "Nope, not today". I feel I've said that often in 2020! I did some paper piecing on her shirt for this card. I also found some butterflies already punched out in the paper pad scraps so I decided to add them to the card. 

For my last card I used some scraps of the paper and the "This too shall pass" sentiment. I heard that sentiment often through 2020!

I hope you enjoy all my cards! I love this stamp set and can't wait to make more cards with it!

Have a wonderful day and hope you have some time to get crafty!

Pick a Posie Mae

My mojo has been missing a bit this past week but I've found over the years it's best to just sit down and make a card or two and usually I can find that missing mojo.

I always revert back to a simple, easy peasy, basic layout so that I don't get hung up on that part. 

I colored up Pick a Posie Mae during Some Odd Girl's Community on Facebook 12 Days of Coloring so she was all ready to go onto a card. 

Thanks for stopping by and hopefully my mojo will be coming back and I'll have lots of projects to share soon!!

Each day comes bearing gifts...

I've been fascinated with foiling for quite some time but always thought it looked too complicated so I never tried it. I finally decided it was time and a week ago I went and got a laminator, some foil and set out to learn how to do it.

I already had a laser printer for printing my digi stamps so I am using the foil that reacts with the toner and heat. It took me several attempts but I figured it out and love the pretty effect it has. I'm excited to be able to add this as an option now to my cards. I can't wait to expand the colors of foil and foil products to my collection.

Here's the first card I made. I used an older, retired Raindrop Echo Designs sentiment from Whimsy Stamps and some gold foil. The sentiment says: Each day comes bearing it's own gifts. Untie the ribbons. Ruth Ann Schabacker.

I think this turned out so pretty and elegant!!

Have a wonderful day and I'll be back soon with more foiled cards, (I really went crazy the first day I figured it out!).

Bloom

I was in the mood to make a card but didn't know what exactly I wanted to do so I decided to look through my digi stamps that were printed out to see if anything caught my eye. This sweet digi, a freebie from Newton's Nook, caught my eye so I decided to color it up!

I had to get creative as I had originally printed this out as one image, to be cut into a rectangle but as I was coloring my copic picked up a purple blob from something and ruined my shadow coloring. I have to say I'm pleased with how I was able to save it!

I used an old Sweet Sunday Sketch for my layout, SSSC27.

I hope you have a fabulous day and thanks for stopping by!

A Good Day

I have had this Stampin' Up set, A Good Day, for several months now and never inked it up so today's the day!! 

The first card I made is pretty simple but thought it would be nice for a thank you.

Next I made a little 3 x 3 Note Card Tote using THESE directions. I used my envelope punch board for the envelopes for the little 3 x 3 cards. 

These were so much fun and turned out cute! I think they'd make fun gifts! I will be making more in the future!

Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day!

Little Hood

How fun is this cute image~ Little Hood! She was a freebie from Chi Chi Memories Designs as long as you follow their rules, like them on Facebook and enter her in another challenge, and then link back to them! 

She is colored with copics and then I fussy cut her out. My papers are from S.E.I.~ Sunny Days and I used a border punch by Fiskars along with my favorite butterfly punch by Martha Stewart. To finish things off I added some stickles and rhinestones. 

I'm entering this card into the following challenges~

• Chi Chi Memories Designs~ January Freebie
• Totally Gorjuss~ Sunny Colors
• Drunken Stampers~ Anything Goes
• Created With Love~ Anything Goes

I hope you're having a great weekend!! Any Superbowl fans out there? We're not really into sports but we do usually watch the Superbowl. I'm routing for the Broncos~~being from Colorado I have a soft spot for them! But mainly I'm crafting my heart out this weekend to unwind from a stressful week and find my happy place!

Hope whatever you're doing it makes you smile!

Oh so cute Ladybug

Now who can resist this cute lil' ladybug by MFT? So very sweet!!

Lala

I thought this digi, Lala, from Saturated Canary was so fun that I had to color her up today. I printed her out and then colored her with my copics. I used Shelby’s FABULOUS card HERE for my coloring inspiration (take a looksie around her blog, she’s so talented!). Although mine turned out not near as nice as hers..I tried…and actually thought I did a decent job.

I used Authentique Gathering for my designer paper. (a reminder that I get most of my designer paper at SCACD--tons to choose from HERE!) I used an older Sweet Stop Sketch for my layout-

I adjusted it a little bit but it was my inspiration point. A few butterflies, some sparkle with copic glitter pens, some leaves and the card was done. I had so much fun putting this card together and really like how it turned out.

 
Have a smiling kind of day!
