TGIFC258 - Rainbow Hello

Hello! I hope everyone enjoyed their weekend. We enjoyed another weekend on quarantine but at least the weather was nice so we got outside for a bit. I also made my first batch of macarons with my daughter so that was fun. For my first time I think they came out pretty good. My daughter and I also spent some time making cards. It's her favorite thing to do lately. She made some cards for her friends and cousin and I played along with the TGIF challenge. This week's challenge was a color challenge - rainbow was the color!

 I love making rainbow cards. Plus who couldn't use a rainbow card right now to brighten your day.

I used one of the hearts from the Be Mine Dies and cut them out in Poppy Parade, Pumpkin Pie, Pineapple Punch, Coastal Cabana, Granny Apple Green, Gorgeous Grape, and Blushing Bride card stock. Isn't it so pretty?!

Behind the hearts is Dazzling Glimmer paper cut with the Stitched Nested Labels dies. And all of that is layered on a piece of the Golden Honey Specialty DSP.

The sentiment is from Seriously The Best. I stamped it on black card stock and embossed with white embossing powder. After I cut out the sentiment I added several strips of ribbon: Denim Ribbon, Purple Posy Linen Ribbon and Whisper White Polka Dot tulle ribbon.

After I put the card together, I looked through all of my embellishments and added enamel dots in various colors to the hearts along with some rhinestone jewels.

I love a pretty rainbow card. I hope to do some more rainbow cards soon!

Stay safe and healthy!

TGIF Challenge #224

Hello! Happy Monday!! I am playing along with the TGIF Challenge this week. It's been a long time since I've played along with these challenges. This week is a fun sketch challenge. I love doing sketch challenges. Check out the challenge HERE.

I did something fun and used the Dino Days Bundle. Isn't this dino so cute!?! I had some googly eyes lying around so I used those too. They might be a little big for this guy but I think they make him look funny!

I stamped and die cut these images in lots of bright colors.This would be perfect for a kids birthday.

This is a short post today but this was a fun challenge. Stop by TGIF Challenges and check it out.

Have a great day!

TGIF Challenges #172 - Frosted Floral Thank You

Hello! I am back sharing another project I made during my crafty weekend. :) I wanted to use the new Frosted Floral DSP again since it is so pretty. I played along with the TGIF challenges. You can find the challenge HERE.

This was a really fun sketch to do. It's a great one to showcase DSP. I stamped the sentiment from the Stitched All Around stamp set in Blackberry Bliss and cut it out with the coordinating circle die cut from the Stitched Labels framelits. I then used a die from the Eastern Medallion thinlits to layer behind the circle. I added some new ribbon - Tranquil Tide velvet ribbon and then a little Tranquil Tide stitched heart. Isn't it cute?!? Before I added the "flower" I stamped the dot image from the set on the Blackberry Bliss card stock with Blackberry Bliss ink. It's been a while since I've used this color. I am loving it paired with this DSP.

Another fun little die included in Stitched Labels framelits is one of the straight line stitching dies. It makes these cute little x's on the card stock. To finish off the card I added a few clear faceted gems. I think I've only used 1 or 2 of these gems before. I don't know why I haven't used them more often. They are great and add such an elegant touch to the card.

Do you like the sneak peeks of the new products so far?? It's a great holiday catalog to get your hands on! Contact me to get your catalog!
