Have the happiest of days

Hello all! Here's my take on this week's Freshly Made Sketch. I've also added a bit a faux stitching to play along with CAS-ual Friday Challenge #117.

Sentiment is from My Favorite Things.

The butterfly die is from Memory Box and cut out using yellow and black cardstock. I used a glue stick to add the black detailed part onto the yellow body. Then popped it up with a tiny foam square so that it appears to be in flight.

The faux stitching is done using a fine tip sharpie marker and a ruler.

Challenges:
FMS #107
CFC117
Simon Says Stamp - use a rubber or clear stamp

Think pink

Good Morning! Thought I would share my Breast Cancer awareness card with you all today!

Sentiment is from A*Muse and stamped in pink lemonade fresh ink. Polka dot designer paper is from Papertrey, Ink and cut with my medium scalloped border from Lifestyle Crafts. The tag die is from Verve and that pink heart ribbon is something that I picked up at the clinic where I got my Mammogram done. Hot pink scrappers floss added to the tag to continue the think pink theme!

Ladies, if you haven't had your annual mammogram done - make an appointment and take care of you! Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Warm wishes for fall

Greetings everyone! Here is my take on this weeks Mojo Monday Sketch #314, which pretty much follows it to a T!

Sentiment is from Verve and stamped on cream cardstock. All of the designer paper is from K&Company from the Tim Coffey fall collection that I forgot I had in my stash.

Brown satin ribbon bow is tied with the Bow easy! Brown and cream cardstock is from PTI. Dies used are the circle nesties and the fishtail banner from MFT.

Thanks for stopping by!

White on white Christmas

Hi everyone! Here's another card for world card making day! This is for the challenge over at Less is more for the colour challenge #140 - white on white Christmas.

I used a shimmer cardstock from Papertrey, Ink for every thing on this card, including the sentiment. The snowflake dies are from My Favorite Things.

I chose to use very small sections of foam tape to pop up all the snowflakes! It was a challenge to cut them up small enough! Kaisercraft self adhesive pearls used in the center of the snowflakes.

I took pictures of this card numerous times trying to get the lighting right so that it wasn't too dark and the shimmer showed. Finally gave up and went with this one!

Thanks for stopping by!

It's the most

Happy world card making day! I've been busy making a few cards and this one is for the Freshly Made Sketch challenge this week.

Sentiment is from My Favorite Things called seasonal sentiments and it's stamped in Fresh Snow ink onto blue vellum. I really like how the vellum allows the snowflake to peak through and not be hidden by the sentiment.

The large snowflake is cut from one of the new PTI dies onto white cardstock. Designer paper is from DCWV mat stack from last year.

Thanks for dropping by, time to get back to more stamping and card making!

Wishing you

Hey all! Yep, I'm still up north and flying home on Friday. Here's another card that I scheduled to post while away.

This card is inspired by a card off of Pinterest by Manitoba Stamper.

I used my flower punches that I've had forever from EK Success on the white cardstock. I put a piece of light yellow cardstock behind it and then added the pearls for the flower centers.

I stamped the leaves in limeade from Fresh Ink and then added the sentiment. Both the leaf stamp and the sentiment are from PTI.

To make mine different from the card on Pinterest I added the butterfly, which is a die from Memory Box.

Sorry that the picture is not up to par, but it was dreary out and my lights were not cooperating! Anyway, thanks for popping in!

Greetings

Hi everyone! I'm currently in Alaska for business and it's my last trip of the year! I had to get up there before the snow starts falling because I don't drive well in the snow!

Here is another card using the Two feet deep set from PTI.

I stamped the snowshoes in Sepia Archival ink and then stamped the laces with white ink from The stamps of life. This white ink is the bomb, by the way! I highly recommend it!

I fussy cut the shoes out and then popped it up on rustic cream cardstock with foam tape. I made a double bow out of some hemp twine and glued it on. Using the new small garden sprig die from Poppy stamps, I cut out four of them and glued them onto the front of the bow. I colored three pearls using the strong red copic marker and stuck them in the middle. Love how it turned out!

Thanks for stopping in! Any comments on this one would be appreciated! It will give me something to read besides work stuff! LOL!
