If Friends Were Flowers

 
Amuse cardstock, designer papers from Hot Off The Press,
If Friends Were Flowers Dazzle stickers from Hot Off
The Press, Copic Markers, and bling from my stash.
 
This was another fun card to make. It was simple to make,
and can be used to send to a friend for any occasion.
I frequently need a multipurpose more generic

Happy Easter


Bazzill cardstock, Doodle Pantry digital paper,
Somebunny Loves You retired stamp set from TAC,
Silver Borders Dazzles from Hot Off The Press,
Copic Markers, Wink of Stella Pen.
 

 
This is one of the cards I made for my granddaughters for
Easter. The other is below. I have always loved this
stamp set from TAC, and it was so fun to color.
I added Wink of Stella to the eggs, bow, and
to the purple layering cardstock behind the basket.
I also tried inlaying the layered cardstock with the basket.
It was so fun to make, I hope they liked it.

Thank You


Amuse Card and Neena cardstock, Spellbinders oval dies,
Bazzill Flowers, Gina K Designs stamp sets Assorted
Greetings and You're My Favorite, Wink of Stella,
and bling from my stash.
 
I wanted to try making this Die-Cut Flap Closure Card that
I found on my DVD by Teresa Welch and Paper Wishes.
It is a Tri-Fold card and was easy to make once
I figured out how and where I wanted the
the flap to be. I like the end result, and it stretched me
to create a pink card that I seem to struggle with making.

Birthday Princess

 
Bazzill cardstock, Digital Paper from Doodle Pantry,
My-Besties stamp "Sparkle" by Sherri Baldy,
Die-Namics pierced stacking rectangles,
Copic Markers, Wink of Stella pen,
Glossy Accents.
 
My granddaughters both have birthdays coming up in
April and May. I thought this was a perfect stamp for
them because they both love princesses, glamour and glitter.
It is hard to see the Wink of Stella pen on the screen,
but it is on the crown, her bracelets, star wand, and
bows on her shoes. Her eyes, shoes, crown gems and
star have glossy accents. It was so fun to make and
gave me a chance to practice my coloring.
I think the girls will love it.

Gratitude

Copic cardstock, designer papers from Bluebell paper pack by
Wild Rose Studio, stamp from Great Impressions,
ribbon from TAC Natalee set (retired),
bling from Zva Creative, spellbinders dies,
Wink of Stella glitter pen.
 
I love this paper combination! It is soft, spring looking, and says
gratitude to me. I wanted to enter a sketch
challenge and thought this would be perfect for
the Mojo Monday challenge.
You can't see the Wink of Stella too good on
the photo but in person it adds just the right touch.

Just Because

Bazzill cardstock from my stash, designer paper and
Just Because stamp from Hot Off The Press, 
button and ribbon from Gina K Designs.
Multi-shaper punch from Blue Hills Studio.
 
I just love this color combination for the designer paper.
I have used it a lot and unfortunately it is almost gone!
This is a tri-fold card, very simple and easy to
make. The button helps to hold it closed.
I have a friend in mind to send it to that I think
would just love it. Hmmmm.

Happy Birthday

Cardstock from my stash, designer papers from
Hot Off The Press, Happy Birthday and line dazzles
from Hot Off The Press, ribbon from the
retired TAC Julienne ribbon pack,
Bazzill flower, bling from my stash.
 
I needed to replenish my stock of birthday cards, and I really
liked the samples of this new paper pack I recently
received. There were 2 challenges I wanted to
participate in, and this card filled the bill
for all of it.
Cute, simple, and fun to make.
