Simon says Stamp make your background

Floral Friday Roses Slimline cards

On this first card, I inked the stencil with pigment inks by Colorbox onto vellum with white stripes. Then I heat set it with clear embossing powder by Hero Arts. From there, I just cut it down, added mats behind it, added some rhinestones and then added a sentiment onto a red die cut.

This second card has the same background just on Sizzix gold opulent paper. 

You can see the heat embossing on this picture. Thanks for looking. HAGD!

Cynthia’s BIG Teal N Pink Birthday Card

This is a big card. I took an 8 1/2 x 11 piece of white cardstock and folded it in half. Then I started my layering. First, a piece of bright pink cardstock. Then a striped piece of vintage wrapping paper. Followed by a blue patterned paper by Cosmo Cricket. 

To finish up, I found the blue scallop square in butterfly in my stash. I added a “happy” die cut by Lawn Fawn and the “birthday” die cut by Clearly Besotted. 

The lady I made this card for has  macular degenerative disease. Her daughter requested cards to be large and have larger fonts.

Thanks for looking.

Pink and Purple Winter Outdoor Accessories Card

I cut the gloves and scarf out with my Cricut many years ago. I will try to link back to the layout in which they came from. The die cuts are wrapped around the super old frame die cut by Provo Craft. The sentiment is by Hero Arts. Thanks for looking.

Floral Friday Bright Pink Card

This card is not my favorite but they don’t all have to be my favorite. The cardstock used is by Recollections. The stamp is by Inkadinkado and I colored it in with Copic markers before I used a Sizzix die to cut it out. I added some rhinestones and enamel dots from my collection. I put some washi tape on the side to make the card look less, and I mean less crooked. It doesn’t make it straight. It makes it less crooked. This card is an anniversary card. Thanks for looking.

Here are some other cards using the Same Stamp

Valentine's Day card

Floral Friday purple and red cards

Here’s the next tier of cards from these donation cards. The images are by Accord Publishing. Thanks for looking.

March Calendar Mermaid Niece in the Box

My niece in a box is now 12 years old. Polka dot patterned paper is by Making Memories and I’m not sure about the others. Alphabet stickers by Current. I used the Creative Memories alphabet line it up thingy. That’s super exact. The mermaid and accessories are Lawn Fawn stamps colored in with Copic markers. Thanks for looking.

Pink with Hidden White Border Punches card

The Recollections patterned paper is die cut out with a die from Lawn Fawn. The happy die cut is by Clearly Besotted and the word birthday is fun foam that was die cut out with a Papertrey Ink die.

The border punch is by Fiskars. The white on white really gives it a hidden element. Finishing up, I added a rhinestone to the i because I lost the original dot. Thank you for looking.

A Simple pinK and Cream Scallop Circle card

Such a simple card but it will still make someone smile. The upper and lower pink scalloped circles are a punch by Stampin’ Up!. The thee center die cuts are by Spellbinders. The bottom layer is foam that I got from the dollar store then the middle layer is cardstock. The top layer is patterned Paper by Making Memories. 

The stamped sentiment is in my stash. I bought a lot of stuff in September and October of last year and I just don’t know who everything is made by quite yet. 

One time, I started a blog post and as I made the cards I would type a product list in the post so all I would have to do is add the picture to the post. I don’t know if you caught that I said ‘one time’ I did that. I should do that more than once.

Anyway, I would search in my craft room for the stamp company but I can’t go downstairs to my craft room putting me at a disadvantage in more ways then just who made this stamp. I am stuck upstairs recovering from surgery. Thanks for looking.

Mom's Pink and Red Fabric in a card

Today is my Mom's birthday. It only seemed right to show a card that I made using her fabric. I die cut the flower in the center out of the fabric's design with a square die. The square and rectangle dies were bought off of eBay

Thanks for looking.

Pink flower Tag Card

There are no stamps on this card. I know. What a surprise.

The ribbon is unknown. I may do something else with it when my glue gun finds its way home.

Silver cards with purple flowers

At the end of this post, I responded to my own post from yesterday. lol...That probably makes no sense to anybody but me.

The first set of two cards are similar and the second set of two cards are similar. However, the first and third cards have nothing in common. 

Scratch that! Card 1 and Card 3 use the same circle square die cut.

Moving on.

The stamp on the pink card is by Stampin up. I colored it in with Copic markers and used some Stickles on each flower.

The sentiment is part of the bouquet stamp

The gray square with circle edges die-cut is by Spellbinders

The silver paper is by Creative Memories

I used the same silver cardstock on these two cards in the same way.

So check this out.

I found a trend on some store-bought cards.

There will be a large image on the front of the card and then there will be a smaller image of the same design or color on the back of the card.

I used both images in this set of cards.

This the front image of the card. I matted it onto the same silver cardstock as above the same purple recycled card as below.

The purple and yellow backgrounds are recycled cards. 

Square punch by Creative Memories. 

The scalloped square die is by Spellbinders.

Yesterday I said, I need to quit using this stamp set. I've tried. 

But now I think it's time to move on from yesterday's stamp set and a few others that I've gotten my money's worth on. 

So let me tell you about the company called,

 Dies...to Die For

 The owner lost her husband when her children were very young and it prompted her to start making memory books of him for her kids. 

Here's her page about Crafting for a Cause mission.

She is a local scrapbook business and you may recall that I auditioned for her DT back in December. You can see the project I made in this post HERE.

Thanks again for stopping by. Have a great weekend.

Gotta wear Shades Calendar Layouts

Today I have some layouts I made for the family calendars. Some of the pictures are repeats because I make multiple calendars. I can't do the calendars the same. I would get very bored.

The title and shade are Cricut cut with the sentiment by TC Sophisticated and shades by When I Was A Kid. 

The only patterned paper that I know is the one under the picture of my husband and me and that is K and Co. The rest are all scraps from my stash.

Cricut border, Title, and flower. Circle cut out with Creative Memories cutting system
