C is for Christmas Card

September 21, 2016

Hi everyone! Can you believe tomorrow is the first day of Autumn? Well, we are still having temperatures in the 90’s and upper 80’s so it definitely doesn’t feel like Fall. It makes me want to go for a swim in my pool. B-) Anyways…I had shared three Christmas cards in July and never got around to share the other three so I am here to share one of the cards with you today. 🙂
I folded cardstock from the Lost and Found Christmas Collection to create a 3″x6″ card base. Next I cut gold cardstock to frame a Long Classic Scalloped diecut from Spellbinders that I cut from patterned cardstock.

I punched out a holly leaf and flowers to create a poinsettia and I finished off with a gold sequin.

The letter “C’ I found on clearance at Hobby Lobby. I painted it an off white and once dry I added clear glitter and last but not least I cut from the paper collection a sentiment and framed it with a banner. As always if you have any questions please let me know.

Thanks for stopping by, hope your day is wonderful and enjoy creating!

Reindeer and Holly Card

July 30, 2016

Hi everyone! I am back yet again with another Christmas card using the same 6″x6″ Lost and Found Christmas Pad from My Mind’s Eye which I folded the patterned cardstock to create a 3″x6″ card base. 

I cut a scalloped oval diecut from Spellbinders and the Gold Glitter Cardstock Reindeer I only cut the head out.

 I adhered a bit of gold trim and punched two small holly leaves out, shaped and added a tiny red gem to the reindeer’s nose and holly leaves. 
As always if you have any questions please let me know.

Snowflake Noel Card

July 29, 2016

Hi everyone! I am back with another quick Christmas card. Like the last card I shared this past Monday I used the 6″x6″ Lost and Found Christmas Pad from My Mind’s Eye. I folded a piece of cardstock from the pad to create a 3″x6″ base for my card.

I cut a diecut from the Scalloped Rectangle from Spellbinders, painted a wooden snowflake and once dry adhered all to the front of the card.

I finished off the card with sequins and tiny flat back pearls. Very quick and easy! If you have any questions about this card please let me know.

Thanks for stopping by, hope your Friday is wonderful and enjoy creating!

Happy Holidays Reindeer Card

July 25, 2016

Hi everyone! I am here to share a really quick Christmas card (yep I’ve been making Christmas cards 😉 ) I created using cardstock from the Lost and Found Christmas 6″x6″ Pad from My Mind’s Eye. I folded the 6″x6″ piece of cardstock in half to create a 3″x6″ card base. I cut two stripes of plain cardstock and patterned cardstock and adhered to the center of the card base.

I cut a Beaded Circles (Spellbinders) and a small Scalloped circle (discontinued Stampin’ Up! Sizzix Diecut) which I embossed with Powdered Sugar Embossing Folder.

I used the Reindeer Diecut and cut part of the head from Gold Glitter Chipboard and glued in the center of the scalloped circle. I added a small red gem for the nose and then fussy cut a “Happy Holidays” sentiment from the Lost and Found Christmas Collection. This was a very easy and quick card to put together in no time at all.
In the next week I will be sharing more Christmas cards as time permits and if you have any questions about this card please let me know. 🙂

Thanks for stopping by, hope your Monday is wonderful and enjoy creating!

Crafty Card Gallery: You Make Everything Bloom

April 16, 2016

Hi everyone! I am back to share a card I created from the Crafty Card Gallery blog and this month’s challenge is flowers. I went with pre-made card from K and Company. All I had to do was fold the card in half and the base of my card was ready to decorate. I had actually started this card several months ago. I had added the doily and then put it aside.

I cut from the Beaded Circles Spellbinders die a circle in a bright patterned yellow cardstock and adhered it on the doily. I added various scraps of patterned cardstock on top of the doily and circle.

I printed the garden girl from the computer and fussy cut out and added a line of glue down the middle of the image. and placed on the card. I didn’t want to add glue all over because I need to be able to add flowers, thread and tulle under the image. I punched leaves and small of the flowers from cardstock and shaped and adhered around the girl.

The sentiment is a stamp from Unity Stamp Company. I stamped, cut and adhered to the top corner of the card. I added another flower along Dew Drops and pearl sprays to finish off the card.

Also I would like to submit my card to the following challenges:
And as always if you have any questions about this card please let me know.

Thanks for stopping by hope your Saturday is awesome and enjoy creating!

Hello Spring!

March 8, 2015

Hi everyone!  I don’t know about you but I am SO over all of this cold weather and I am SO ready for spring and with it the warmer weather, flowers and trees with all their green foliage. All I want to do is stay bundled up with a cover and not move off the couch…lol. Well, I want to share a card I created awhile back for a magazine call but it wasn’t selected. The original card had ribbon with the button but after looking at it I decided I just didn’t like how it looked and removed the ribbon and added the polk a dot banner and moved the button off center from the Hello Spring sentiment. 

I think the updated version looks better than the ribbon I had original used. Don’t you think?

For this card I used some product that would normally be used for Christmas and beach/ocean theme projects but I thought would work perfectly with the design of the card. 🙂 I started out with a 5″x7″ Kraft card as the base for the card. The rabbit is fussy cut from the Farmhouse Market on Ivory Cardstock and then I applied Champagne Glimmer Glaze to the image and once that dried I added a little bit of Crystal Stickles to the tail and I applied some pink chalk to the cheek of the rabbit.

I added all the different layers of cardstock to the top of the card. I used the Spellbinders Bead Circles dies and I printed the sentiment from the computer and I finished off with a button, sequin and a dew drop.

Also I would like to submit this card for the following challenge:

 I hope you like the card and if you have any questions please let me know.

Supplies Used:
Tattered Angels: Champagne Glimmer Glaze, 7 Gypsy: Maritime Coquille Cardstock, Conservatory: Flora Cardstock, Santa’s Journey Cardstock, Canvas Corp: Green & Ivory Dot Reverse Cardstock, Green & Ivory Ribbon Stripe Cardstock, Blue & Ivory Mini Dot Reverse Cardstock, Pink & Ivory Toile Cardstock, Farmhouse Market on Ivory Cardstock, Value Pack Greeting Cards-Kraft (50 cards/env)

The Robin’s Nest: Blue Dahlia

August 24, 2014

Hi everyone! I’m here to share a chest I created out of a Pringles can. Yep, that is right…a Pringles can. I looked on Pinterest and YouTube for inspiration and all I could find was cans decorated where the lid comes off and there was a few videos where both ends were cut off  of the can and then a straight line was drawn and cut from one end to another. Then the ends were traced onto chipboard, cut out and adhered to each end. Well I thought why can’t you leave the ends on and just trace the “lid” onto the can and then cut? Well, I’m going to show you how to create a Pringle’s chest using this month’s featured Floral Collection from the Robin’s Nest. For more photos and how to create this little chest please head on over to the Chattering Robin’s blog.

If you have any questions please let me know. Thanks for stopping by, hope your Sunday is great and enjoy creating!
