Strawberries and Cherries card



These stamps are by no longer available but you can use any full stamps for this technique. I used water based markers by Crayola and colored directly onto the stamp with a red and then green marker. Then I huffed on the stamp and stamped it down. I used a circle punch to punch them out before adding them in this formation. Here’s an example of using an old school technique, with some old school punches paired with an old school design. Thanks for stopping by.

Ribbon runs thru my heart card


This was the negative of a Cricut heart cut out. I sprayed it with Glimmer Mist before layering ribbon to the back side. The sentiment is a sticker by SRM Stickers. Thanks for stopping by.

Manly Monday Balloon die cuts Birthday card


I found these balloon die cuts amongst the things people gifted me. I’m going to guess that they are by Creative Memories. The check patterned paper, also a gift is by Colorbok. The oval-ish white die is by Scrapbooking Made Simple. The thread was probably hanging off of my husband’s shirt. I tied that around the bottom of the balloon. The card needs a sentiment but I don’t want to cover up the thread. Thank you for visiting my blog.

Floral Friday Heat Embossed frame card


This frame die is by Scrapbooking Made Simple. I tapped the die cut with a Versa Mark ink pad. Then I added embossing folder. I added pink on the flowers and green on the leaves. It sort of worked. Thanks for looking.

 The digital image is from Bug-a-boo. I colored them in with Copic markers. The patterned paper is by Imaginicse. The orange and black papers are scraps from my stash. The peace sign is made of chipboard, and it may be by Basic Gray.
