Easter Cards

Hello crafty friends!

Since Easter is just around the corner, I thought

I'd show you the simple cards I made for my

grandkids last year.

I sketched out the shape of a "Peep" and

cut it with a fold at the top of the ears.

I used glitter paper to imitate the sugar on

the Peeps.

I mounted the Peeps onto a base and 

to open it, the Peep lifts up and I

stamped a sentiment inside.

I don't know why I don't have a picture of

the card open, but hopefully, you get the idea.

These were quick and easy cards to make

and the kids loved them.

Thanks for stopping by today,

I hope you have been inspired in some way.

Come again soon,

until then

make something unexpected.

 

Found In My Stash

Good day crafters!

The other day I was straightening things up

in my space at My Happy Place and 
I found a few pieces that I had made a while

ago, but had never made into anything.

I made this card from one of those pieces.

Quick and easy since it was mostly done for me.

I trimmed it and adhered it to a card base.

I found the Thinking of You stamp in my stash

and used that to make this an any occasion card.

The inside is blank, so I'll add a sentiment when 

I'm ready to use it.

Easy peasy.

I do love when I find something that is ready

to use and I can whip up a card in no time at all.

Thanks for stopping by today,

come again soon.

Until then,

check out your stash and see what

surprises you find.

 

Whimsical Card

Hello crafty people!

Today I have a simple card to show you.

I embossed a piece of white card stock with an embossing

folder and my Cuttlebug for the background.

"Smile" was stamped onto a piece of water colored

card stock from my stash and adhered to the background then

adhered to the front of a card base.

Inside I stamped this whimsical greeting and

added a strip of the water colored card stock at the 

bottom.

And Done!

Easy Peasy!

Thanks for stopping in today,

come again soon.

You never know what you'll find at

Little Envelope Message Valentine Card

Hello craft lovers!

Today I have a Valentine card to show you.

Valentine's Day will be here before we know it and if

you are sending out cards, it's time to start getting

some ideas.

This card was actually very simple to make.
I punched out some hearts and made a few little

envelopes.

The background was a piece from my stash, red is always

good for a Valentine's Day card.
I stamped greetings inside the little envelopes and

closed them with washi tape.

Hearts and envelopes were adhered to the front of

the card.
Happy Valentine's Day was stamped inside and

it was ready to go.

Thanks for stopping by today, I hope you have

been inspired in some way and will come again soon.

Until next time,

think red!
