Hi y'all! 

Hope all is well?! :)

I'm swinging in today to share a card I made for Amy's Woodblock Wednesday feature. Without further ado, here is my card...

I used a Hero Arts woodblock stamp, along with a Bossy Joscie woodblock stamp. I kept things simple and just did some coloring with colored pencils. That's pretty much it. :) Oh, and I added a touch of tiny splatters with a Copic pen. Easy peasy, right?!...

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Big flowers and a Big hello

 Hi y'all! 

I'm sharing this card today on social media for Scrapbook Pal. :)

Anyone else ready for springtime, especially the sweet smells of blooming flowers? I’m more than ready and I’m sharing a card to show it. :)

I’m using Altenew’s Paint a Flower Gerbera Revolution Outline stamp, along with Copic markers. Then a little hot foiled sentiment from Spellbinders Spring into Glimmer Collection Sentiments for Everyday and a touch of Altenew’s Cherry Blossom enamel dots. Simple and sweet, right?!

To make this card:

1. Take a marker friendly paper/cardstock, stamp on the image from Altenew and color things up using Copic markers.

2. After add a few faux paint splatters using a black Copic marker.

3. Time for hot foiling! Use the Spellbinders glimmer die with gold foil and then use it with the matching die.

4. Add everything to your card base and then top things off with a touch of enamel dots from Altenew.

That's it! You made this card!

Thank you so much for stopping by!

Have a great day and see you soon!

How about we make this card and a couple tags to go with!

Let's start with the card:

3. Use the matching dies and die cut the images.

4.Take a piece of orange colored cardstock and stamp on the 'dotted line' and 'x' images. Use Avery Elle's Easy Layers 1 banner die with white cardstock and stamp on 'Ahoy, Matey!'. 

5. Use Avery Elle's Easy Layers 1 border die with the stamped panel.

6. Add the panel to the card base and then adhere the images and sentiment. 

7. Top things off with Altenew's Glacier Caves enamel dots.

You just made this card!

Now, for the tags:

1. Use Avery Elle's Holiday Circle Tags dies with white cardstock and a blue cardstock.

Hi y'all! 

Happy Thursday, almost Friday! Hope all is well?! :)

I'm swinging in to share a 'just for fun' card, no design team work or challenges, just fun. Without further ado, here is my card...

I pulled out my colored pencils and did some coloring. I also used a Simon Says Stamp set that I had since last Christmas...guess that tells you how long I let things sit. (lol) I did keep things relatively simple, I used a stencil for the background and that's pretty much it. Coloring and stenciling. :) Easy peasy, right?!...

Well, that's all for me.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Have a great day and see you soon!

Hi friend

Hi y'all! 

Hope all is well?! :)

I'm swinging in to share a card that I have up on the Scrapbook Pal blog, today! 

Don't you just love to make someone smile with a handmade card? I'm using Honey Bee's Just for You stamp set and Just for You die set to make a sweet friendship card.

Let's make this card together!

1. Take white cardstock that is marker friendly and stamp on the images in Lawn Fawn's Jet Black ink.

2. Color the images using Copic markers. In the case, I used Copic Sketch markers R20, R21, RV23, RV25, RV29, Y02, Y08, Y17, E31, E34, E39, E57, E59, BG10, BG11, BG13, BG78 and Copic Ciao markers G07, G14, YG11. 

3. Use the matching dies with the colored images. Set aside.

4. Use a piece of light brown/kraft cardstock and add a little ink splatter to it. (Use Lawn Fawn's Yeti ink pad and tap it onto a piece of acetate, add a touch of water, and use a paintbrush to flick on splatters.) Let dry.

5. Assemble card. Use the splattered cardstock and adhere to the card base and then add the die cut images, use foam squares on the back of the bouquet. 

6. To finish things off, add a touch of Spellbinders Color Essential Opal gems. 

That's it. You made this card! 

I would appreciate it so much if you were to swing on over the Scrapbook Pal blog and leave some love there! :)

XOXO

Hi y'all! 

Happy Sunday, hope you're enjoying your day?! :)

I've been working in the yard, but finally called it good (enough). (lol) Now, it's on to relaxing and crafting some. :) With that being said, I'm sharing a card for the current Altenew Inspiration Challenge. 

Such a pretty photo and colors, right?!...

The inspiration for my card came from the colors in the photo. I tried to reflect that into the blooms. I colored things with Copic markers and then simply added some paint splatters to the background. After, I stamped on 'XOXO' and added a touch of enamel dots. Easy peasy, right?!...

Well, that's all for me. 

Thanks so much for stopping by!
Enjoy your day and see you soon! :) 

Hooray! It's your birthday!

Hi y'all! 

Hope all is well?! :)

I'm swinging in today to share a card I made for Scrapbook Pal's social media pages. 

How about some birthday cake?! With the start of the New Year, birthdays are certainly bound to come, right? So why not pull out some goodies from Spellbinders and make a birthday card!

I started with using Spellbinders Birthday Celebrations Collection Stitched Fringed Cake dies and made a three layered cake and candles. Then I used Spellbinders Speckled Prism hot foil along with Spellbinders Yana’s Blooms Collection Splatter Sentiments for a splattered background.

After I added the cake to the foiled panel. To top off the cake, a hot foiled sentiment and a touch of gems. Sweet, right?!

Hi

Hi y'all! 

Hope all is well?! :) 

Today, I'm sharing a card that I made for Scrapbook Pal's social media pages. :) 

Sometimes we need that quick and easy hello card that has an impact and with Spellbinders Just Wanted to Say Collection Stitched Hi, you can do so! Simply take the Hi outline die and use it with white cardstock. Before adhering to things to your card base, use some fun colors of cardstock to make stripes and then add your die cut panel. To finish things off, a simple hot foiled sentiment and a few enamel dots. That’s it.

Shall we make this card step by step?! ;)

1. Take white cardstock and use with the Spellbinders Hi outline die.

2. Take a blank piece of cardstock, make some stripes with colored cardstock and add it to the blank piece of cardstock.

3. Add adhesive on the back of the outline panel and add to the striped panel.

4. Now to do some hot foiling. Take some silver hot foil and use it with Spellbinders Spring into Glimmer Collection-Sentiments for everyday.

5. Use the matching die with the hot foiled sentiment and then add to card.

6. Add a touch of enamel dots.

7. That's it!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Have a great day and see you soon!
