One more card to share...

I made this card over the weekend using the Children of the World set by Our Craft Lounge. As you can see, I got my inspiration from their idea gallery ...I changed the colors a little bit, but pretty much CASED this idea. I embossed the background paper with a Quickutz embossing folder. I used colored pencils to color the image. Thanks for looking! Have a great day!

Clearly Inspired Challenge #14: Birthday Bash!

Hello! Here is my card entry for the Clearly Inspired Challenge #14 for June: Birthday Bash! Do those candles look familiar?? I used the Too Sweet set from Clear Dollar stamps; they are actually the stamps used to make Hershey Hug candy wrappers. The candle flame is a leaf stamp from a floral set from The Angel Company. I love using black, red, and white together. I think the image has kind of a bold, graphic look. The ribbon is from Stemma and the little white tag is a Cuttlebug die. I cut the scalloped square on my Cricut using the Mini Monograms cartridge. Thanks for looking! Have a great day!

One of the five!!

Sticking with yellow...

I needed another thank you card and decided to use yellow, since I had some supplies out from my previous card. The large flower image is from My Mind's Eye; the smaller flower image is from Stampin Up! The 'thank you' sentiment is from Hero Arts. The brad in the middle has some glitter on it. The card is nice and bright in person! Thanks for looking and have a great day!

Clear Dollar Stamps Challenge!

Hello! Here is the card I made for the May flower Clear Dollar Stamps challenge. I chose yellow because it is bright and springy. The sentiment is from the Tiny Scriptures set, Clear Dollar stamps. The flower is from Stampin Up, Happy Day set. I used the large spellbinders scalloped circle to create the flower shaped card. I also added a little "bling" to the center of the flowers. Thanks for looking!

Pink Thank You

Hello! Today I am sharing a thank you card. One of my students gave me a pretty pink cyclamen...and she LOVES pink. So I thought I'd use as much pink as possible on the thank you card,a nice switch, actually, since I use don't use a lot of pink in my boys' scrapbooks! I like how it turned out; sorry for the dark picture. It was too late to catch any good daylight, and I want to give her the card tomorrow. I used the mini monogram cartridge to cut the scalloped circle. The stamps are from Studio G. I added some stickles on the arrow...all of the paper is from my scraps. Thanks for looking!
