Clean and Simple Snow cards

This is a clean and simple card. I dry embossed the blue cardstock with a Fiskars texture plates. Then I die cut the snowflakes out of white glitter paper. Thanks for looking. HAGD! 

Hello Die cut with `umbre background

The patterned paper is by Cosmo Cricket (how do they come up with these names of companies?) The die cut is by Simply Defined from Scrapbooking Made Simple. I inked the background with three distress inks; Tumbled Glass, Peacock Feathers, and Salty Ocean. Thanks for looking.

Manly Monday Confetti Birthday Card

This is a square card and the confetti patterned paper by Accord Publishing was a 5 x 7. Therefore, I had to cut it down and make it mesh together to fit seamlessly. And I can honestly say that when I look at this picture, I can’t tell where that seam is.

 The star punch is by Creative Memories and the paper is a glitter paper, but it’s almost waxy and it is by The Paper Studio

The wavy rectangle dies are by Stampendous. The sentiment die is by Scrapbooking Made Simple. The wonky shaped die, red cardstock die in the center, it is by Scrapbooking Made Simple. 

Thanks for looking.

Floral Friday black and teal

The leaves are the negative pieces from a die cut by Simply Refinded. The flower stamp in the middle of the circle is by Hampton Arts. The stamp is unknown. Thanks for looking.

Intricate die-cut birthday card in Aqua

The background paper is a Project Life card. The die cut is by Scrapbooking Made Simple. The sentiment was a Michael's dollar bin find. The rectangle die cut is by Stampendous. The stamped border is a Stampin Up, Mosaic Stamp set. Thanks for Looking.

Floral Friday Hello card with Half and Half

This card is one of my faves and there’s nothing to it. Patterned paper is by Making Memories and the word die cut paper is by Colorbok. The main die cut is by Simply Defined by Scrapbooking made Simply. I don’t exactly know where the sentiment die is from. But I do know that it’s in blue and white packaging and it’s a girl’s name. It’s probably in the basement. I can’t go into the basement to look it up because I had surgery in June and my balance is off making me more susceptible to fall. So I’m staying upstairs.

Thanks for looking.

Floral Flower Pink Flower with a Chipboard Ribbon Card

The background patterned paper is by Basic Grey. I inked the edges with distress ink. The pink flower paper was made with Copic markers spritzed water.

For the flower, another new die by Simply Defined. The chipboard buckle in the center is by Colorbok. Thanks for looking.

Gold Frame around a Candle Christmas card

For my card today I have a candle that was cut out with my Cricut. I glued it onto a tag from my stash. (I have no clue as to where it came from.) The frame shape is the negative of a Simply Refined die. Idk how to explain this...I trimmed around the outside of the negative frame because when I ran the original die thru the Gemini I had another die too close to this die and therefore I didn't have enough gold to cover the entire card front. I think in five years when I come back to this post I will understand what I wrote. Maybe. 

The gold cardstock by Creative Memories is no longer being made. Such a bummer. Thanks for looking.

Simon Says Stamp has a new challenge- Tag it.

Pink hello with lady in Foil

A friend of mine sent me the lady die cut. The Hello die cut is by Simply Defined and then the background patterned paper is by Basic Grey. Thanks for looking.

Feminine Cards With a side door feature

I got some new dies. I love this one on the front. And what I love even more is the Gemini cut it out beautifully.

It’s a crappy view of how it stands up.

On this second card, the front flap is plain…oh no. Look again. I die cut the end and have it in a slit made on the left side..

These were inspired by this card making summit that I attended a couple of weeks ago. This card design was from Erin Reed Makes. The design is kind of strange but it worked with these pretty papers by My Minds Eye. Thanks for looking.
