Challenge Time (Take Two)

Thank you for joining me again.  Here is a cute little hanging I created for the Paper Sweeties and Artistic Outpost April Challenges.  I thought it would be nice to give to a friend.


 Isn't she sweet?

I just love this image.  It is from Artistic Outpost "A Lovely Day".  The sentiment is from Paper Sweeties.  The flowers are from Prima.  The leaves I die cut from handmade paper with a Spellbinders die.

You still have time to enter the challenges.  Paper Sweeties and Artistic Outpost have new challenges every month.  Thank you for joining me and have a wonderful evening!

Challenge Time

Sorry for so long between posts, but I have been sick the last several weeks.  Between the flu and migraines, I have not felt like creating in my studio.  However, I could not miss out on Artistic Outpost and Paper Sweeties Challenges.  The first item I created is a little card.




 
The girl image is from Artistic Outpost "Paperboy" stamp plate.  I just love this image.  The sentiment is from Paper Sweeties.  The beautiful ribbon is from Ooh La La Crafts (also at oohlalacrafts.com).   The die cuts are from Spellbinders. 
 
Thank you for joining me and have a great week!

Crafty Secrets April Linky Party - Part Two

It is time for the Crafty Secrets April Linky Party.  The theme this month is sewing.  I used their wonderful new Digital Sewing Papers and Digital Button Cards.


 
 I stamped the word "sewing" on twill tape that I had dyed with tea.
The gold bow is from Jenni Bowlin.  The blue button is vintage.  This image is just beautiful!  I love it.

I stamped this image of needle and thread inside the card.











Thank you for visiting.  Keep creating and have fun!

Crafty Secrets April Linky Party - Part One

Crafty Secrets is having its monthly linky party.  This month's theme is sewing.  I used the new Crafty Secrets Digital Sewing Papers and Crafty Secrets Digital Button Cards.  I took the papers and printed them out at 5" x 5" (perfect size for a card).    


 I added lace to the top of the card.  I added a cute hanger clip and a pearl button.  I also added a green button and pink floss.

I distressed and inked the edges of the button card.

Thank you for visiting!  I hope you have a wonderful week and happy creating!

Artistic Outpost March Referral Program

It is time for the monthly Artistic Outpost Referral Program.  This month's theme is "Anything Goes".  I used one of their new stamp sets "Paperboy".  Such a cute set.



 I just love this stamp. I am glad that Artistic Outpost included girls in the Paperboy Stamp Set.
 
 I used Spellbinders Grand Labels Four.
I love the sentiment.  It is also part of the Artistic Outpost Paperboy Stamp Collection.

Cute vintage style button from Jenni Bowlin Studio.  The thread is from We R Memory Keepers. 















You still have time to enter the contest at Artistic Outpost.  Thank you for visiting and have a wonderful Easter weekend.

Artistic Outpost

It is time for the Artistic Outpost Monthly Referral Program.  The theme is "anything goes".   I used one of my new stamp sets"She-roes" to create a cute card inspired by the "Bomb Girls" on REELZ.



 I cut the frame out using my Cricut Expression.  The top reminds me of the wings that pilots wear on their shirts.  The stars were cut using Spellbinders Nested Stars.
 
 
 

The paper is from K&Company (Americana).  The little crystal stars are from Recollections.






















If you get a chance, please check out Bomb Girls.  Wonderful show on every Wednesday at 8 p.m. EST.  Thank you for joining me and have a very Happy Easter!

Crafty Secrets (Finale)

It's that time again . . Crafty Secrets is having their monthly linky party. I have made some cute Easter cards using Crafty Secrets Digital Easter Egg printables.

 This one is my favorite.  I used polka dotted paper to match the little girls dress.  I then added crochet flowers to the front of the card.  I embellished the flowers the green crystals.
 
 
Very sweet image.  Thank you again for visiting and have a great Sunday evening!
