Neat & Tangled Guest Designer-final day

Hey y'all! Happy Friday!

Today, I'm back guesting at Neat & Tangled, though it is my last day of guesting. I truly had such a blast and enjoyed every bit of it! Thank you soooo much again Danielle for having me! :)

Here's my final card.


I would love it, if you'd swing on over to Neat & Tangled and leave some love there, too!...Thanks so much for stopping by!

Enjoy your day!

what makes you...

Hey y'all! Happy Wednesday! Hope all is well?!...

I had some free time and whipped up a card for the current CASology Challenge! It's been a while since I've played with them! ;)


Here's what I came up with.



When I saw 'wings' as the cue card, I thought it was perfect timing because I could use some more new goodies!...Who doesn't love opening new stamps?! ;)

I kept things simple. Just did some coloring and some layering with my die cuts. And yes, my toucan may be of wrong colors because I don't really know what they look like...Well, I do but I don't. (lol maybe some will understand what I mean by that?!...I'll google 'toucan colors' later, I'm sure.) But, don't the colors fit in good with the sentiment?!...Let me know what you think?! ;)

Thanks for stopping by!
Enjoy your day!

Neat & Tangled Guest Designer

Hey y'all! Happy Friday!

Today, I'm back guesting at Neat & Tangled! Yay! :)

I was playing around with an slightly older N&T stamp set 'on the edge', along with the newer 'hello there' die. And this was my outcome.



So, what do you think?!...I kept things simple and stamped on my lines in a soft yellow. Then used my die with a dark blue cardstock, which I layered them together three times.

I would love it if you'd swing on over to Neat & Tangled and leave some love there, too! :) Thanks so much for stopping by!

Enjoy your day!

Some more fun!

Hey y'all! Happy Monday!
Hope your starting off the week good?! ;)

I'm swinging on in (a little later than usual) to share another card I made, just for fun. I recently got some new Waffle Flower goodies and couldn't wait to play them!



Who can resist a monkey?!!...And a CUTE one, if that?!!...lol Seriously, I love this set!
For my card, I kept things simple. I did some coloring and a little layering with the die cuts. Let me know what you think?!...

Also, here I go rambling about my photos again!...lol...I do think this photo looks good. However though, I think I may have overdone it some on the brightness?...When you look at the top of my card, you can't really see all of it. Though, does that really matter?...not sure...Ahhh, everyone see's things differently and everyone prefers things differently. lol I swear my photos are getting the best of me! I'm spending so much time trying to get them to be 'out of this world perfect'! Yet, I know nothing can be absolutely perfect, though I'll still try! lol ;)

Thanks so much for stopping by!
Enjoy your day!

Happy thoughts...

Hey y'all!
Happy Sunday! :)

Today, we have a new challenge at CAS on Sunday! And this time we're all about using the sketch below.


Here's my take.


Well, hopefully y'all are seeing some flowers?!...lol...I've had this stamp set for a little bit and watched several videos on using the set. And still, I seem to be having trouble with what I'm doing with it! lol Looks like I'm gonna have to keep playing with this set. ;)

And if you have this set, I would love to hear how you line things up and any tips you may have?! ;)

Be sure to swing on over to CAS on Sunday and see all the DT creations! And while you're there, I hope you'll join us?!! :)

Thanks for stopping by!
Enjoy your day!

Heartfelt Thanks

Hey y'all!

I'm swinging on back in today, to share a card I made for the current Virginia's View Challenge! I recently ordered some of the new Waffle Flower sets and couldn't wait to play with them! So, when I got them the other day, I thought what better than to put them to use with the challenge! ;)


I truly was just having fun. And I ended up with this.


Seriously, I just LOVE this set! Have y'all seen it?!...The flowers are so pretty and there's so many options into what you can do with them! Love.

So, let me know what you think?...

Thanks again for stopping by!
Enjoy your day! :)


Guest Designer for CAS-ual Fridays Stamps-Day 3

Hey y'all!
*edit: For my day 2 post of Neat & Tangled's release week, please scroll down.* 



Today, I'm back for my day 3 guest designer post for CAS-ual Fridays Stamps blog! It's also my last guest designer post as well...Thank you again for having me, Michele! :)

Here's what I came up with.


No hearts this time, just snowflakes! I used a few different snowflakes with my inks and then added one big die cut snowflake. After, I added my sentiment and some sequins. 


And for my last project, I made some tags! I used a die cut snowflake for a mask with a little bit of distress inks and then stamped on my sentiment over the snowflake. Again, added some twine to finish things off.

(*note: I may be addicted to twine.* lol)

Let me know what you think?!...
And again I would love it if you could please swing on over to CAS-ual Fridays Stamps blog and leave some love there too! :)

Thanks for stopping by!
Enjoy your day!

Guest Designer for CAS-ual Fridays Stamps-Day 2

Hey y'all!
 *edit: For for my Neat & Tangled Release Week post, please scroll down.*



I'm back today with my second guest designer post for CAS-ual Fridays Stamps blog!

Here are my cards for the day.


Guess 'love is in the air' and it's not even Valentine's! lol Having some fun again, I did a little masking with my hearts. I chose a lighter pink for the big heart and a darker pink for the little heart. After, I added my arrows and topped everything off with some twine. 


For my next card, I went really simple. I used the stamp as whole with red ink and added my sentiment/arrow angled in the middle of the heart. On the end of the arrow, I added a touch of pink to it. And again, used some twine to top things off. 

Let me know what you think?!...
And again I would love it if you could please swing on over to CAS-ual Fridays Stamps blog and leave some love there too! :)

Guest Designer for CAS-ual Fridays Stamps-Day 1

Hey y'all! Hope all is well?!



Today and for the next couple days, I'm guesting over at CAS-ual Fridays Stamps blog! Yay! :) Thank you sooo much Michele for having me!

Here are my cards for today.


Well...this card really came out of nowhere! lol When I saw staring at the dies and stamp set, I just kept seeing/thinking of a tire swing. Then one thing, led to another and next thing you know, I have a card with a tire swing on it. ;) 


And then there's this card. Again playing around with things, I thought a background would be pretty cool. So I rolled with it and chose to color some and leave some uncolored. After, I thought why not a gold die cut heart?!...So, one little gold heart it was! lol To finish things off, I added a banner with my sentiment on it and stapled a somewhat messy bow to hold it all together.

Let me know what you think!?!...
And I would love it if you could please swing on over to the CAS-ual Fridays Stamps blog and leave some love there too! ;) Thanks so much for stopping by!

Enjoy your day!

Find joy in the little things

Hey y'all! Happy, happy, Friday!

*edit: For my guest post, please scroll down.*

I am sooo happy to be back with the CAS-ual Fridays Design Team! I truly enjoy the challenges and of course playing with the stamps!...Among a ton of other things! ;) Thank you again Michele for having me! :)


As you can see, it's all about embossing! Fun, right?!...

Here's my card.


Keeping things simple. I used CAS-ual Fridays Stamps Breathe set, along with CAS-ual Fridays Shuffle Fri-die. I used a hot pink ink and I stamped my image twice with it. Though slightly moving it down before I stamped it a second time and not re-inking it. I also not only stamped my image on my card base, but also on another piece of cardstock, so I could use the die with it. After I had my die cut piece I added my sentiment, which I embossed in gold. Once done, I used black cardstock with my die (5x) and layered my die cut pieces together. Then added it to my card. Simple, yeah?...

Be sure to swing on over to CAS-ual Fridays and see all the DT creations! While you're there, I hope you'll join in on the fun?!!...Hope to see you there! :)

Smile

Hey y'all! Hope all is well?! :)


Today, we have a brand new challenge at CAS on Sunday! And this time it's all about 'embossing' and any kind will do!...How fun is that?!...

Here's my card.


Well, when I saw embossing was our challenge, I immediately thought of the new embossing folder I recently got. Annnd I remembered my friend Amy challenged me to use it. So, that's what I did! ;) I did think of using it as my whole background, but was a little stumped. Sooo, I thought why not do some more embossing for my background by heat embossing (in white).

Hopefully, you can see the background embossing?! ;) 
I used a square die for my pineapple embossing and then added some color to it. I knew after it needed just a little something else, and what better than a wood veneer pineapple?!! ;) So, there you have it. What do you think?!...

Be sure to swing on over to CAS on Sunday and see all the DT creations! And while you're there, I hope you'll join us?!...

Thanks for stopping by!
Enjoy your day!
