Simple Cheery Celebra'tions Birthday Card.

Hi everyone! 

I have a new card to share. For the Make Amazing Design Team! Here's a fun, bright Birthday card using Richard Garay's Celebra'tions Collection from Spellbinders. 

I just love the all the white showing on this card. the Pierced Rectangle Dies give cards so much detail I can use them on every card! The other die I used is from the Embellish It Die Set.

That delicious paper is is from Celebra'tions Pints Collection. There's so many fun patterns in this collection. Perfect for summer with those bright cheery colors.

I really love height and texture on my cards. Since I don't have a lot of layers of card stock I decided to use some different ribbons and linen thread for my final touches, of course I had to add a button which is from Fun Stampers Journey

A Spring Birthday Card with Unity!

Here's a card I made using Unity's January Kit of the Month. This kit is so versatile and the sizes of the stamps are so much bigger than what you would think from the photo online. The Sentiment is from the Sweet Elle Stamp of the Week Set.

I used the 'no line' stamping technique, one of my favorites. I stamped the image in Memento Desert Sand ink and colored with my Copics using Y0000, Y21, Y26, Y28, G82 and G85. 

I added some Flowersoft along the entire bottom of the card. I love the texture the Flowersoft gives.

I took some Journey Glaze and put some in the centers of all of the flowers. You can see a little shine to them in the photo. Of course I use lots of 3d foam dots when creating. It adds so much to your cards. Even if it's a simple one. 

I hope you have a wonderful day.

Fun Simple Birthday Cards!

 

Hi there lovelies!

 

Here's the birthday card set we made at Jollene's Paperie last Wednesday. --Told you I was behind on posting. We are getting there, though.

Have a great day crafty  peeps!



Fun Stampers Journey!

Hello all!

Today I have a fun little project to share. I've recently joined Fun Stampers Journey. I'll be honest, I saw the amazing starter kit and couldn't resist! Spellbinders is a partner with FSJ so you get a Journey Grand (Exclusive Grey Grand Calibur) in your kit, rolling tote, stamps, exclusive Spellbinders Dies and coordinating stamps.. and your website is FREE!!!! Since my Big Shot died last month I thought what the heck! Plus the quarterly minimum is only $150! Easy Peasy! :) Then the more I looked into it and after receiving my kit, I thought what an amazing opportunity to be at the start of this company. A year ago I had the privilege to meet Richard and his wife, they came to one of my Copic Classes. It's really wonderful to see how much Fun Stampers Journey has grown since then. The first 500 Coaches will be the 'Founding Journey Coaches', oh, and the FIRST Stampers Journey Convention will be in Arizona next June! So we shall see what my new 'Journey' will bring me! I'm a little excited. :o)

 

 

This Birthday card was made using Birthday Sketch, which is in my kit. I've also used the Pennants Die set which is out of stock. I stamped my cupcake in Memento Desert Sand and used my Copics to Color. Then I took the Journey Glaze and along the outline of the cupcake's frosting I added the glaze and sprinkled with some Journey Sparkle Dust.

I hope you all have a great day!

Hello My Maggie friends!

 

I made this card a few weeks ago and I've been trying to space out my posts a bit. I used this adorable Tilda which is currently out of stock at Magnolia-licious.. that's how adorable she is! There's a few in the new Love Collection in the store.. if there's any that tickle your fancy you better get on over there. I have used my Celebration papers on sale in my Etsy shop.

 I just LOVE the way I did that cake! YUM-O!

 

I have so many projets waiting to be colored and I'm hoping to get to some of them tomorrow.

I had my class at This n That Scrapbooking in Chino Hills, California tonight.

It's always fun chatting with those ladies.

 

Until next time my crafty peeps.. ta ta for now!
