The Friday Mashup #122

A quick post this evening for the current Friday Mashup, I have not joined in the fun for this challenge in a long time.

 

Here's is the Mashup Challenge details:

1.       Create a project with a "Tag (as an embellishment on you rproject or as the project itself )."

2.       Create a project using the colors "Crisp Cantaloupe, Soft Sky, Primrose Petals & Bermuda Bay". Or Mash it Up and create a project "with a Tag using the color combo above".

 

 

 

I think I managed all the colours, and I went  with little tags wishes dropping from a plane for my Mashup. I added little twine flags and some twine along the bottom.

 

Supplies: Natural white and pink card stock, Designer Paper - Echo Park and Pebbles, The Alley Way Stamps-Priceless and Wish Big, twine, pearls.

Cheers,

Happy Happy Happy

I will admit to enjoying a little Duck Dynasty... in my defence I have used multiple Happy's on my cards in the past before I heard Mr. Robertson catch Phrase Happy Happy Happy.

This card was crafted in the creative space of Mrs. Miles, during my sister visit this summer.  We had this pretty little array of cards along the fireplace mantle and of course forgot to take a picture.

I found lots of treasures when we went shopping, two items that I could not wait to try was black sequins and Dogwood Blossom die cut.

Barb has been busy posting too, take a peek at her blog to see all her wonderful creations.

 

Supplies: Cream and  brown cardstock, Designer Paper - KaiserCraft, Stampabilites - Everyday Expressions, Memory Box-Dogwood Blossom, sequins.

Muse ard challenge # 30

The inspiration for this Muse Card Challenge is stunning, I love the fabulous colours and artistic feel and that was my inspiration and what I tried to do with my card.

I usually struggle with bright colours but this card was so fun to make. I was not sure of the sentiment but then I added the twine and heart and it seemed to come together. I used some Goosebumps on the heart and then popped up with foam tape along with the sentiment.

Supplies: Natural white and black cardstock,  The Alleyway Stamps - Love Knots and Jibber Jabber, twine.

Take a look at the this weeks Muse card HERE.

Merry Monday #70



August is burning away to fast for my liking, my vacation seems a distant thing of the past. We could not ask for nicer summer weather though, I will admit to enjoying this lovely sunshine and good thing it does not impact my ability to think wintery thoughts :).

 

Lesley has a new sketch for us for Merry Monday so lets take a look.

 

 

This card came together very quickly for me, I used my Cricit to cut this intricate snowflake. I added a little texture to the navy panel then added some finishing touchs with the sentiment, twine and a gem.

 

 

 

 

 

Supplies: Natural white and navy cardstock, Designer Paper - Echo Park, Cornish Heritage Farms, Cricut-Winter Wonderland, twine, embossing folder.

Muse Card Challenge #29

I had a chance to spend a little time in my craft area today so I created a card for this week’s Muse Challenge.

 

I used  Laurie's card as a sketch, I used simple layers of DP then added this 3D camera that I stamped multiple times onto designer paper and card stock for the different layers. I finished with the sentiment and silver embellishments.

Take a look at the this weeks Muse card HERE.

Supplies: Natural white card stock, Designer Paper-Teresa Collins, embossing folder, The Alley Stamps - Jibber Jabber, Imaginisce-Camera

Tuesday Morning Sketches #210

I could not resist joining in the fun for the current Tuesday Morning Sketches. This sketch is nice and simple and it was easy for me to get creative.

 

 

I decided to go with a CAS card, I wanted to dig into my new batch of stamps from The Alley Way Stamps. I popped the panel and speak bubble up with foam tape then finished with some silver embellishments.

 

 



Supplies: Natural white card stock, Designer Paper-Pebbles, The Alley Way Stamps - Jibber Jabber and Talk to Me, misc silver embellishment.

Seize the Sketch #1

It has been a while since I created something for a challenge. I though this first Seize the Sketch challenge would be perfect.

 

 

I dug into my bins and found this treasure of a scrap, the colors pulled at my creative strings. I layered the double-sided paper, added some twine. I layered die cut balloons and added a little Goosebumps. I finished with a simple sentiment.

 

Supplies: Cream and brown cardstock, Designer Paper - pinkpaislee, The Alleyway Stamps-Wish Big, The Stamps of Life - balloons2cut, twine and gem.

Cheers,

Touch of Brown

While traveling on vacation I discovered Hobby Lobby.. I don't remember the last time I walked into a store and was in awe. I mean where do you start in a wondrous place such as that. I did pick up a few supplies :).

 

This paper is so pretty, I backed it with some brown cardstock and added knotted ribbon and a sentiment.

 

 

I am way behind on blog visiting and commenting, I have some time to myself this weekend and I will be making the rounds.. Thank you to everyone who has stopped by :)

 



Supplies: Natural white and brown cardstock, Designer Paper - Prima, TPC Studio-Flourish Text, ribbon.

Happy Birthday with a little sparkle

My sister Barb and I did a little crafting when I was visiting her last week, I certainly don't have her creative powers. I did manage to create a few cards :).

 

I used a simple layout for this card then added some twine and a very cool looking button. I finished with some clear and blue gems on the different flowers.

 

 

 

Supplies: Natural white and black cardstock, Designer Paper - Imaginisce, TPC Studio-Greetings, twine, button and gems
