Watching Over You

Hello Everyone!

 

Back already with another card. This time I chose the Silver Fairy from Wee Stamps. Colored her with greens and lavenders and surrounding her with spring colors. Wanted to use colors that made me think of spring with all the flowers blooming and every ones lawns with luscious green grass. WOW!  As I'm sitting here typing this, and thinking about spring, I can almost smell it in the air.

Party Girl

 

 

I made this card for many reasons. For the many and wonderful challenges, a DT Call and for a lovely niece of mine that I had not seen in a couple years. We reconnected through Facebook this last summer. I remembered she had a birthday coming up soon, so when I seen this digi stamp it reminded me of her. She was always trying out new things, new styles, new looks. This card is totally her.  

 

Ingredients Used: 

 

Stamps: Digi stamp from Saturated Canary, Happy Birthday from JustRite Stampers

Paper: Whisper White & Basic Black - Stampin Up, Bo Bunny - A Gift of Love, Black glitter cardstock

Inks: Versafine - Onyx Black, Copic's

Father/Daughter Dance

I'm back and here to stay. Hubby had a hip replacement, and that knocked me out of the toy room for a bit. He is bouncing back quickly and doing extremely well. So with that said, I got back in my craft room and made this card for a friend of mine that wanted to give his little girl a special invite to a father/daugther dance and dinner that the girl scouts put on. She's 7 years old and this is a really big deal for her, so her dad was doing everything he could to make it a night of memories.

Crystal Snowflake

Hello everyone!

 Have always loved the look of white cards. Think they have such a rich clean look about them. Then add glitter and pearls or anything that adds sparkle, they suddenly come alive.

Started with a 5 3/4" x 5 3/4" white card stock, this would be the base. Next cut a piece 5 1/2" x 5 1/2" and dry embossed a single line around the edge about a half an inch in. Then cut some glitter card stock an 1/8" wide and cut the corners at a 45 degree angle and glue them between the cut edge and the embossed line. Next I used one of the Grand Nestabilities - Grand Labels One out of shimmer paper. Next layer I used a die from Cheery Lynn - Hawaiian Luau Doily Frame. This die comes in a rectangle shape, was able to turn it into more of a square, took a little work but it can be done. Then added an embossed piece of card stock using the Cuttlebug Modern Wallpaper Embossing Folder, glued that to the back of the frame. Next I punched out a 1 1/2" circle to put the snowflake on, using Snowflake Die's from IO and covered with Martha Stewart Coarse Glitter. For a little more bling added pearls around the scalloped frame, a large pearl in the center in a silver setting and bows in each corner.

 

Ingredients used...

Paper: Whisper White card stock - Stampin Up

Shimmer - Sugar card stock - A Muse

Dies: Cheery Lynn Doily Frame Die, Snowflake Die - IO

Grand Labels One - Spellbinders

Embossing Folder: Cuttlebug Modern Wallpaper

Accessories: Bows, pearls - Stampin Up, Crystal Coarse Glitter- Martha Stewart

Happy New Year

 

Hello, I'm back with another card to share with you, and to play in some more challenges.

 

This is my first new digi stamp for 2013. Love digi stamps, they don't take up any space in my craft room. When I saw this digi stamp I knew exactly what I was going to do with it. I remembered there was some old stickers stashed away that had to do with new years and would work perfect with this digi, so this gave me the chance to use them up.
