I hope you are enjoying your holiday with your loved ones today!
Yesterday we celebrated my sister’s birthday. One of her gifts was a gift card (not the one in the picture – I’m the Vera Bradley fan) and this is the little matchbox that I made for her using the Envelope Punch Board. Tanya Bell, a Stampin’ Up! demo in Australia, has a terrific video on YouTube showing how to make this easy box. You can check out her video here.

Today I have a card using an Easter stamp set but as you can see, I didn’t include the sentiment. The stamp can be used for any occasion! Before inking up my stamp with Staz-On, I covered the sentiment with tape (any kind of repositionable tape, such as painters tape), then took it off before stamping onto my Whisper White cardstock. I colored the tulips with my Aqua Painter and Rich Razzleberry stamp pad. I used Gumball Green for the leaves. Gumball Green is the green that I ALWAYS turn to and I’ll be so sad to see it go in June. Hopefully something just as beautiful will take its place! I had planned to use some Rich Razzleberry cardstock on my card but realized that I was completely out so went with just using Gumball Green. My sentiment is again from the set, Wetlands.
Thanks so much for stopping by today!

I’ve been babysitting my granddaughter (I love every minute of it) quite a bit the last few days so I haven’t had much time to craft, but I was able to get into my craft room yesterday for a few minutes and created this card! The flower was created with one of the Weekly Deals this week – the Fun Flowers Bigz Die. I cut the flowers out with the Watercolor Wonder Designer Series Paper and sponged the edges with Island Indigo. I used lots of dimensionals to pop up each layer of the flower. My sentiment is from the stamp set, Wetlands. I LOVE the fonts used for the sentiments in this set. I actually haven’t used anything but the sentiments in this set and I think it’s time to try out the birds!!
Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Has your week started off well? Mine has been very busy with my daughters and granddaughter. That’s the best kind of busy!
My card today was created with our Stamping Sponges and stamp pads. I used Wild Wasabi, Daffodil Delight and Rose Red. After it dried, I stamped the birthday greeting with black Staz-On. I added dimensionals to the back and my card was finished very quickly! I’m always trying to create cards that I can easily send off in the mail so although I wanted to add more to this card, I decided to just leave it as is. If you would like to see a video on how to create this effect with sponges, let me know and I’ll make a video.
Have a terrific day and thank you for stopping by!

Another card today using the Watercolor Wonder paper. I hope you aren’t getting tired of this paper! This is a normal sized card but on the front, you make a score line at 2-3/4″ and fold it back to create this fun fold. It doesn’t lie flat so it was hard to take a picture of it closed.

Paper: Island Indigo, Whisper White, Watercolor Wonder DSP
Ink: Gumball Green

I LOVE this card. I waited until a few weeks ago to purchase the Hexagon Hive Framelit and I am wondering why I waited so long!! You can do so many different things with it!
If you follow my blog, you know that I love the Watercolor Wonder DSP. This paper looks so pretty peeking through the Hexagon Hive Framelit. I punched my butterflies out of the paper as well and then sponged them along the edges. My sentiment (from the set Six Sided Sampler) is stamped on a hexagon that I punched using the Hexagon punch. This hexagon is a bit bigger than the ones on the Framelit. I sponged Island Indigo and Gumball Green onto Whisper White and then stamped my image on top of that.
Only FIVE more days of Sale-a-bration! You can visit my online store here!
