Happy Valentines Day!

Today I am sharing a special card that I created for The Robin's Nest that would be perfect for Valentine's Day! I matted the The Robin's Nest Black Fluer-de-li on White Glitter Cardstock on a piece of Silver Roses Glitter Cardstock and adhered it on a 6" x 6" black card base.  I then wrapped some red ribbon around the center of the card front and added a bow.



Using a Spellbinders Classic Oval die, I die cut the "I Love Us" sentiment from the Wedding Cut-Outs Cardstock and then matted it on Very Black Glitter Chipboard that had been die cut with the Spellbinders Floral Oval die.  I added Silver Bell Dew Drops and Regency Mini Dew Drops to the edges before I added to the card front with pop dots.  Finally, I added Ace of Diamond Dew Drops to the bottom right corner of the card.


This made a simple, but beautiful card for that special someone!

"Are you longing for springtime...dreaming of sunny hours spent in a lavish flower garden where butterflies flit lazily from blossom to blossom?  Heartfelt Creations invites you to revel in the beauty of springtime with the release of the Butterfly Medley Collection of stamps, dies, and papers.  This uplifting collection is bursting with bountiful botanical roses and a kaleidoscope of fanciful butterflies.  Soft shades of pastel peach, lilac, sage, lemon, teal and pink are the perfect counterpoint for the bleak, grey days of mid-winter.  Beautifully landscaped backgrounds include pastel plaids, cheery polka-dots, flowing script, classic stripes, elegant flourishes, seed packets, garden themed sentiments and images.  Six hand drawn stamp sets featuring botanical roses and butterflies can be paired with two sets of dies, allowing you to stamp and die cut a host of embellishments with a single pass through your die cutting machine.  You'll dream in beauty, plant seeds of encouragement and reap a harvest of creativity when you design with the Butterfly Medley Collection from Heartfelt Creations."

This week I designed a Birthday card featuring the beautiful Butterfly Medley Paper Collection and the Botanical Rose Cling Stamp Set and the coordinating Botanical Wings Die.


I embossed the flowers with purple embossing powder and added Spring Bling Prills to the flower centers.

Quick Quotes and Want2Scrap Bling

Today on the Want2Scrap Blog I am sharing a card that features Quick Quotes products and Want2Scrap Bling. The 6" x 6 3/4" card uses paper, die cut stickers and chipboard die cuts from the Quick Quotes Sheer Joy Collection.



To create this fancy fold card begin with a 6 3/4" x 12" piece of kraft cardstock and then score on the 2 1/4", 3 3/4", 8 1/4" and 9 3/4" marks and fold.  Cut two pieces of the orange paper from Quick Quotes Sheer Joy paper to 2 1/4" x 6 3/4" and adhere to both sides of the card and then add Brackets Fancy - Silver Rhinestones LRG Pair - Self Adhesive to each side of the card.



Next cut a gray piece of Quick Quotes Sheer Joy design paper to 4 1/2" x 6 3/4" for the center of the card.  At the top of the card I cut the scalloped border to fit from the Quick Quotes Sheer Joy Chipboard Die Cuts.  The sentiment is from Quick Quotes Bundle - Sentiments.  I used Caribbean Blue PowderPuff Chalking Inks on the edge of the Sentiment before matting it onto several layers of Quick Quotes Sheer Joy paper.  Above the sentiment I used Heartfelt Bling Brackets by Nina Brackett.  At the bottom of the card front I used  Quick Quotes Sheer Joy Die Cut Stickers and I added a Gun Metal Pearl to each sticker.



Have a great day!

Valentine Cards - Canvas Corp Brands Crew Challenge

As I told you awhile back, I am Crew Member on the Canvas Corp 2015 Design Team.  This month one of our Crew Challenges was to create a Surprise Valentine Card.  I created this card for my husband.  The reason I think of it as a surprise is because I may be on several design teams and make several cards a week, but I can't remember the last time I made him a Valentine.  It may even be about 25 years ago when we were dating back in college, so I think he will be surprised!

I started by using Canvas Home Basics Greeting Card/Envelop (5x7) Kraft for the card base and then adhered a 4 3/4" x 6 3/4" piece of Take Our Breath Away Gypsy Moments Paper.


I then used Heartfelt Creations Timeless Amour Die to die cut a heart out of the the green side of the Take Our Breath Away Gypsy Moments Paper and I used some cream cardstock from the Gypsy Scrap Pack: Vintage Travel to die cut the lattice heart.  I then added some Brown RhinestonesLight Green RhinestonesSilver Rhinestones - Baby Bling and Brown Rhinestones Swirls Finesse as shown.



Then I took a piece of Express Yourself Gypsy Moments 12 x 12 Paper and cut out the selected words and glued them on a piece of burlap from the Scrap Pack: Vintage Travel to create a personalized message for my husband.  I finished the card by wrapping some Chocolate Hemp Rope around the top of the card front and finished it with a bow.

Have a great day!

Bird Bath with Birdies Card

We have lots of snow here today, but I am dreaming about Spring and being out in my flower garden after creating this Bird Bath with Birdies Card featuring Heartfelt Creations Birds and Blooms Collection.


I colored the image with Copics and to create the pink hydrangeas I created my own mix by combining Peony Pink Flower Soft, Ivory Flower Soft and a little bit of Art Glitter's Warm White Chunky Transparent Glitter.  For the yellow/light green hydrangeas, I used Lemon Chiffon Prills from the Spring Bling Prills package.  I added Burnt Sienna Ultrafine Flower Soft to each birdie's belly.

In Love with The Robin's Nest


With Valentine's Day just around the corner, I though today I would share with you some cards that I created design paper and embellishments from The Robin's Nest.

The first 6" x 6"  card I created uses the Dark Vanilla Silver Glitter Cardstock and Teal Glitter Cardstock for the base.  I then die cut the sentiment from the Wedding Cut-Outs Cardstock and the heart from Dark Vanilla Silver Glitter Cardstock  using the heart from Heartfelt Creations Timeless Amour Die (heart).  Next I die cut the flower from Silver Classic Glitter Swirl Vellum using Heartfelt Creations Ariana Blooms Die and the leaves from Wrap Glitter Cardstock using Heartfelt Creations Gift Ensemble Die (leaves).  I added a yellow Dew Drops to the flower centers.  I finished the card by adding silver Dew Drops and black Diamond Dew Drops.



The next card features Dark Vanilla Silver Glitter Cardstock.  I added ribbon and a bow around the center of the card before adding the rings pictures that I had cut from the Wedding Cut-Outs Cardstock and matted on black cardstock.  I then carefully hand cut out the oval with the word together also from the Wedding Cut-Outs Cardstock and added it to the rings pictures with pop dots.  To finish the card I added Early Dawn Dew Drops to the corners of the matted image.



Have a great day!
