8/26/2024 - Make My Monday#233 Beach - Sending Oceans of Love

Happy Monday and welcome back to another Make My Monday card challenge and this week we are making Beach Theme card. As you can see, I need to be a little creative with this card. I didn’t have any stamp set related to Beach but I found the fun and cute stamp images from Submarine Life and create an ocean underworld scene! The seaweed image was originally a water jet image but I used it like a seaweed and then added all the fun, under the sea creatures! I hope you enjoyed this card I am sharing today and join us and let’s be creative together!

8/23/24 - My Time To Craft #541 Trees - Frosted Forest Mask Happy Birthday

Happy Friday and welcome back to another challenge here at My Time To Craft and this week we are making Tree cards! I decdied to purchse the Frosted Forest Decorative Mask without the coordinating bundles to see if I can just sponge the tree this way and how it looks, I think the result is not so bad, right?! It just doesn’t have the outlines of the tree  but kind of give it a little different kind of looks – like watercoloring. I used 3 different shades of green and then adhered it to a piece of Designer Series Paper. I added a Happy Birthday sentiment on the bottom. I hope yu enjoyed the card I am sharing today and be sure to join us at the challenge!

Happy Thursday and welcome back to Pink Thursday! That’s right, today at Cardz 4 Galz, we are making pink card and guess what, Stampin’ Up actually have a color called Pretty in Pink! I used the 2024-2025 In-Colors DSP (Pretty in Pink) as a base and work off that to create the rest – bouqet of flowers and champagne. I used the Stampin’ Markers to color them in and to add some shine, I added Wink a Stella on the flowers. To finish, of course I needed to add some pink sequins!

Today’s theme at Cardz 4 Guyz is a fun one – Sunrise/Sunset and right away I knew I want to use Circle Saying stamp set (retired). It has a wonderful image that you can color in with anything you like. I used the Watercolor Pencils with Blender Pens for this and paired it up with the retired 2022-2024 In-Colors. This is also another set of cards that I made for my husband – he needs some for the upcoming graduating students and the image is just perfect for it.

8/15/2024 - Sparkles Challenge #179 Butterfly - Thinking of You with Butterfly Accents

Hi everyone – welcome back to another monthly challenge here at Sparkle and we are making Butterfly/Butterflies card! I saw a similar card on Pinterest and decided to CASE it. I used the Butterfly Accents from Stampin’ Up and glue it around a designer series paper that’s cute down to 4” x 5 ¼”. Since the pattern is very busy so I want to keep the sentiment minimal and just layer it with a piece of Basic Black cardstock. I also added a twine with some some dots.
