Cuddly Salutations

Hello there!  Today I have a 3x3 card using the Cuddly Salutations Hostess rewards set.  This is such a cute set.  I paired it with the March stamp of the month!  White daisy as the base and a piece of Cocoa scrap to frame the frame. :)  Yeah, I just said that!

I used Archival Black, Cocoa and Desert sand inks.  I also used a couple ShinHan markers...Clay and Mahogany.  I roughed up the edges of the Cocoa paper with the Distress tool.  Why not add a few Gold Sequins!

Hope you are having a great day!  Gotta go, my son is up from his nap!

Circles and Twine for GUYS!

How are you all doing today?  I hope you are well.  Today I have a simple card for a guy!  That's right, a guy!  Most guys, are not going to be looking at your stamping technique, or how perfect everything is.  To be honest, most guys don't care if you give them a card.  They want some sort of tool, to add to their collection in the garage or something with a motor, that they could potentially get hurt with.  That being said, I like to give cards. :)

 This stamp of the month is even great for guys.  And since that is who I have to make for the most, I thought I would show a few. (even with a girly stamp set!)

 Only $5 for this set with a $50 purchase.  Check out my website on the right!

How awesome is this?  When I say that, I mean easy!  Three stamp colors(cocoa, chocolate,desert sand), a small piece of cocoa paper and neutral metallic bakers twine!

You do not have to be perfect!  In fact, it might be better if you're not.  This kind of thing works for me.  I hope it works for you too!

Thanks for stopping by!  Have a fabulous day!

Seaside Baby Announcement

Hello!  Hope you had a beautiful Christmas!

Here is the baby announcement I promised.  I gave them a few different options for layouts.  This is the one they picked...

This is done using the Artbooking Cricut Cartridge to cut out the giraffe and lion.  Wild Wonders stamp set.  Seaside, Colonial White and Glacier paper.  The inks used are Glacier, Desert Sand, Sorbet and Pear.

You can't forget the 3D Foam Tape!

This is a 5x7 card.  I printed and put all the information, on the backside of the card.  The picture will be wallet size and fits, framed, in the Glacier box.

It was fun making this, but it always is for baby's!

Have a fantastic day!

Hello!  So, my Brother and his wife had a baby boy in November (this is there 2nd boy).  This is the card I made for them.

I used the Spin Card from CTMH and the Wild Wonders stamp set!  Soooo cute!

The blue paper is Glacier.  I also used the Glacier Stamp Pad, to stamp "it's a boy" all over the front.

The monkey is stamped in Topiary.  I also, used the ShinHan Touch Twin marker Pastel Peach, for his face, belly & ears.

The Giraffe is stamped in Desert Sand.  I used the Pastel Green ShinHan Touch Twin marker for his spots and nose.

The Hippo is stamped in Slate.  Using the Pastel Peach alcohol marker around his eyes and Tender Pink on his nose, bum, feet and ears.

On the inside, I have a lion, stamped in Desert Sand.  Also, using the Pastel Green alcohol marker for his face.  The bird is stamped in Topiary and the Tender Pink ShinHan Touch Twin Alcohol Marker around his eye.

Other things used in the making of this card are...Artbooking Cricut Cartridge & 3D Foam Tape.

Well, this was a fun card to make.  I also made them baby announcements.  I will sharing that later.  Have a blessed day!
