ATG at Crafty Gals Corner

Happy Wednesday!

We have a new challenge up and running at

Crafty Gals Corner!

The them this time around is

"Anything Goes".

This week the challenge is: Anything Goes

Our sponsors are:

Twinkle Lane Designs

Prize: Two Digital Stamps & Two Digital Paper Packs 


Digi Doodle Studios

Prize: 1 Digital Image


Mari's Digi's

Prize: 1 image used by the DT

I created a shaped card for my DT project using

For the Love of Dawn by Digi Doodle Studios

I have had the polka dot ribbon I used for some time

and thought a bow would work well on whatever my

finished design might be. So I colored the image using

the colors from the ribbon and fussy cut.

I cut my card base with a Lifestyle Crafts Scallop Circle die.

The image is popped on to a matted circle die cut.

I punched some flowers and a butterfly.

The bow finishes the design.

I hope you'll join us at

Crafty Gals Corner!

We always love to see what you create!

Cute As A Button Inspiration

Hello everyone!

Today I'm sharing a little inspiration on the

Cute As A Button Inspiration Showcase Blog.

I love making pop up box cards

and think this sweet fairy is perfect for one!

High Top Daisy Fairy

I started by coloring the image with Spectrum Noir Colourblend Pencils.

Next I fussy cut the image, pulled out some designer papers from Colorbok

and scored a piece of solid card stock for the box.

I assembled the box and applied the designer papers to the panels.

The image was attached to the center of the box.

I added some layered daisy stickers, greenery die cuts

and punched butterflies.

I stamped the sentiment and die cut with a tag die to complete the design.

Thanks for taking a look and until next time

Happy Crafting!

To Have & To Hold

Hey everyone!

How's your Thursday going?

It's been really cold this week

here in Colorado and I'm sitting here

watching the snow come down.

But, I'm not writing this post to discuss the weather.

I saw that All Dressed Up  is having a Design Team Call

and thought I would throw my hat in and apply.

I love All Dressed Up images and created a card

using one of my favorites,

"To Have & To Hold".

I decided to create a twisted easel card

and started with a 5.5 x 5.5 inch card base.

I cut the image, which I colored with pencils, with a circle die.

The image piece was matted and layered over a paper doily

and a scalloped circle die cut.

I added some die cut corner pieces to the front.

Inside, I added a ribbon threading die cut and a die cut sentiment.

I added a little glitter glue to the bride, a bow and 

white flowers to complete the design.

Thanks so much for taking a look at my project

and until next time

Happy Crafting!

New Release at Cute As A Button

How's everyone doing today?

We're covered in snow and it's cold, cold

here in Colorado this morning!

I have a new cardio share that was created

using "Your Love is Enough" which

is a New Release this month from

Cute As A Button Designs. 

I love this image and think she is so beautiful!

I colored here with Spectrum Noir Colourblend Pencils and fussy cut.

I popped the image on to a die cut circle frame.

The designer paper is from Crafter's Companion Verity Rose Luxury Paper Pad.

 The pretty border was cut with a ribbon threading die from Crafter's Companion.

I computer generated the sentiment and doe cut with a tag die.

The addition of some pearls and a bow finished the design.

I hope you'll check this digital stamp out

MHKDesigns Valentine Roses

Hello all!

Today is my day to share a little designer inspiration on the

MHKDesigns Blog

using this month's New Release Set

"Valentine Roses".

This is a beautiful set that, like most of the products

available in the  MHKDesings Etsy Shop,

can be used for a multitude of occasions.

My card is a simple design but, I think, effective.

I colored the image with alcohol markers and fussy cut.

The sentiment was printed on the white card stock

before I did the embossing. This way I could have it
placed right where I wanted it! I then matted the

panel with the sentiment and embossing with black card stock.

To finish, I popped the fussy cut image with foam tape on the matted panel.

I hope I've provided you just a little bit of inspiration today!

If you would like a chance to win this set check out

this month's challenge for details and join in for more

chances to win MHKDesigns products!

Happy Saturday!

I hope everyone is having a great weekend!

I have a wedding card I put together

earlier today to share with you.

This was created with a set from 

Imagine That Digistamp

"Wedding Day"

I colored the image with pencils and fussy cut.

My layering was done with a paper doily and

glitter and metallic card stocks. I popped the couple

on to a die cut which I matted and added a glitter border

and pearls. The sentiment from the set was printed and die cut.

I hope you'll visit

Happy Valentine's Day!

I hope everyone is enjoying the day

and getting to spend some time with loved ones.

I wanted to share a card I created with Crafter's Companion products

 that is apprpopriate for Valentine's Day or

perhaps an anniversary or just because.

It is an easel card.

I used a Die'sire Fancy Card Blank for the card base.

The roses were stamped with

Spectrum Noir Aqua "Love" Stamp Set.

and colored with Spectrum Noir Markers with

Spectrum Noir Colourblend pencils over.

The corners and border were die cut with

"Parisian Damask" dies.

The sentiment was die cut with

"Words of Endearment" dies.

I used Shimmering Cardstock in Candy Red and White Pearl.

These products are very versatile and 

make it so easy to create something beautiful.
