Thinking of You

Welcome Back,

I thought I'd pop in to share a fun design (kind of new to me)  and its really easy to make. 

I've seen it called the  Corner Angle Pop Up Card and I saw this somewhere online, so I thought I'd make a few .

I recently received stamps, dies and papers from Heartfelt Creations, and the February release has daffodils and hyacinth flowers in the release. Perfect for  spring cards and I think spring flower cards are perfect to get us out of the winter doldrums and into thoughts of spring.

The spray of daffodils was perfect for this card design. Perfect for that folded corner. BTW, I made this card into a 5"X7" card

Here is my card:

A Spring Bouquet

Hello everyone and I'm back again with one more card on this  Wednesday afternoon

I thought I'd  share one more card using the same image from the new Spring Bouquet Set over at The Artsystamper. 

This time I'm using that bouquet image in the set and yep it too is is perfect for a birthday or a thank-you or whatever the occasion. The tag is part of the set as well. Flowers are so fun to color with Spectrum Noir alcohol ink markers or even colored pencils.

For this card, I fussy cut the bouquet and fashioned a white tissue paper bouquet holder with the bouquet nestled inside. I added some tulle and positioned on top of a lacy diamond shaped die cut. Reminds me of doilies. Next this went on top of the dotted CS

SUPPLIES I USED ON MY PROJECT

Stamps: Digital - The Artsystamper - Spring Bouquet set Paper/Card Stock: White CS, Dotted DP. light green CS Dies used: Heartfelt Creations - Lacy Diamond Accessories: White chunky glittered tulle, White tissue paper, Spectrum Noir alcohol markers

Smell the Roses

Welcome back my friends!

It's time for the February challenge over on the Crafty Creations Challenges blog. I don't know about you, but I am really tired of cold weather and snow (I'm not a fan of winter) so I decided to showcase some flowers. Maybe that will warm me up a bit!!

The sponsor for the Crafty Creations Challenges for February is The Artsystamper and Beverly Cole has a wonderful selection of gorgeous flowers to choose from. 

I decided to use roses. Recently I saw a tutorial online showing how to  make a wreath card and since then, I have made 3 or 4 so far. These are fun and easy to make. you will probably see a few more very soon here on my blog.

In the meantime, here is my take on the wreath card, using a rose image and the sentiment from the Vintage Roses and Birds set. These are available in The Artsystamper shop

The Crafty Creations Challenge theme is always - Anything Goes. So that leaves it wide open for your project.

So jump on over to the Crafty Creations Challenge blog and enter! The challenge will go on til March 1.
