Hello Friends! Are you getting excited for the holiday season? Halloween is right around the corner! I'll be honest, I really don't go all out for Halloween, but this cute bat stencil from Scrapbook.com just gave me all the feels to make a Halloween card!
I am just loving the pink for this card! Who said Halloween had to be all about dark colors like purple and black?! This just makes my pink loving heart go pitter pat! And, how about that alpha die! It's called Uptown alpha and I love it!! These letters are so trendy and would look really great on a scrapbook layout as well. I finished off this card with a few Pops of Color, some beautiful glitter paper and some ink splatter. Trick or Treat!!
I hope you enjoyed today's card, thank you so much for stopping by!

Hello Friends! It's Mix it up Monday! In this series I'll be using products from various companies to hopefully come up with a cohesive card design. Today's card features products from four different companies!
If you've been following me for a while, you know that I LOVE teachers! We have been so blessed to have fabulous teachers for Paige from pre-school to until now. She's in the second grade and her teacher is just lovely! About a year ago I was reading a post from Jennifer McGuire and if you follow her you know she does A LOT for teachers! I decided in my own little way, I wanted to thank more than just Paige's classroom teacher, so I made thank you cards for all of the 1st grade teachers and a few staff members. They absolutely loved it and it made me feel so good to put a smile on someone's face (many of whom I had never met). Fast forward to this year and I'm doing the same thing. I'm making this sweet card for all of the 2nd grade teachers, the Principal, Assistant Principal and the school nurse. Shout out to school nurses! They really are going through a lot with all of the COVID protocols and I commend them so very much!
Let's talk about the card, shall we? I used the Apple stamp set from Kitchen Sink Stamps for that awesome multi-step apple. It looks so realistic! This was my first purchase from Kitchen Sink but it will certainly not be my last. I don't know about you, but I always have trouble lining up layering stamp sets. Not the case with this one, all of the images line up perfectly! So, I don't have a bunch of red inks, so I used a soft pink, light red, mid red, dark red and a light brown for the last stamp. LOVE!! I also pulled out the Teacher Thank You stamp set from Simon Says Stamp for the sentiment as well as a stencil from Echo Park. To finish off the card I cut the image using a great die from Pink Fresh called diagonal stitched rectangles. I know I say this all the time, but I love how this card turned out! And I truly hope the teachers enjoy it as well!
Thank you so much for stopping by! Have a great start to your week!
Hugs,
Carol

Hello Friends! I hope you had a wonderful weekend! We most certainly did! We went to the home opener for the Miami Dolphins (they did TERRIBLE) but we still had a good time and ran a few much needed errands. All in all, it was a great weekend!
So, today I'm sharing a festive Christmas card! All products used are from Scrapbook.com.
I absolutely love that snowflake die it reminds me of winter's in Ohio! I've been in Florida for so long I almost forget what winter looks like! LOL! For this card I also used the new acetate sheets to create my own stencil. I just used a hole punch to punch some holes and then used texture paste to get that look of snow falling behind the snowflake. I also used the 4 inch mint tape to cut out a mask using the slimline rounded rectangle die to ink blend my background. To finish off this card, I added some stickers as well as a Merry Christmas sentiment from the Labelmaker stamp set from Waffle Flower. I really love how this slimline card turned out!
So, you know there are less than 100 days until Christmas, right? Have you started on your holiday cards yet? Well, I hope that this little bit of inspiration gives you some ideas so you can get started on your cards as well. And, I'll be honest, I've only made 2 cards so far, so I have a heck of a long way to go! LOL! One day and one card at a time, right?!
I hope you liked today's card and thank you so much for stopping by!

Carol

My sweet friend, Nichol Spohr designed several stamp and die sets for Spellbinders, and this pumpkin is included in one of the sets! It's so realistic looking, LOVE!! I added a few sequins to finish off this card and I really like how it turned out.

Hello Friends! I hope you're having a wonderful weekend! We've had some beautiful weather (although super humid) but sunny blue skies nonetheless. Today I'm sharing a card made with a few exclusive products from Scrapbook.com as well as a beautiful glimmer foil plate from Spellbinders.
I started this card by first heating up my Spellbinders Hot Foil Machine and getting my background complete. I did this step first because I didn't want to do all that beautiful stenciling then have my foiling come out wonky! After the foiling, I used the gorgeous Flower Garden stencil and chose some light inks in orange, yellow and blue. Next, I die cut the word LOVE with ivory card stock as well as that beautiful pink from the Rainbow smooth card stock paper pack. After adhering my base onto my panel, I added the die cut and stamped the sentiment from the All Hearts stamp set. I absolutely love how soft but colorful this card came out!
I hope you enjoyed today's card and thank you so much for stopping by!

Hello Friends! Today I'm sharing a sweet card made using exclusive products from Scrapbook.com. If you haven't jumped on board their stamp train, you really should. Choo! Choo!
I must say, the Vintage Cookbook stamp set has quickly become one of my favorites! With the holidays coming up, I can see getting this stamp set nice and inky! I started this card by stamping my background, I love making my own patterned paper! I used the Dainty Floral Frames using some tone on tone stamping. After that, I stamped those cute kitchen images, heat embossed then ink blended the blues and greens. I fussy cut those out and added them to a piece of vellum that was cut using a circle die. I adhered everything onto my card front, then heat embossed the sentiment using the Wordfetti Documented stamp set. I cut that out and adhered on top of those sweet images. And just like that, this card was done!
I really hope you liked today's card. I think it's great when you can utilize images from various stamp sets to create a great card!
Thank you so much for stopping by!

Hello Friends! It's Mix it up Monday! In this series I'll be using products from various companies to hopefully come up with a cohesive card design. Today's card features products from four different companies!
These cards turned out so cute! Since the main image for my cards was that sweet mini paintbox, I chose to make 4Bar cards (3.5 x 5). I added some abstract stamping to the background, a little paint splatter and a sentiment. I also did something a little different for me and that was using a gray card stock for my card base instead of white, I must say, I really like it!
Below, you can find all the products used for this card:
Mini Paintbox stamp and die - Altenew
Crafty Life stamp set - Altenew
Organic Elements stamp set - Ellen Hutson
Just Add Color stamp set - Gina K.
I Work for Watercolor stamp set - Picket Fence Studios
I hope you liked today's card! Thank you so much for stopping by and for my friends in the US, I wish you a happy and safe Labor Day!
Hugs,
Carol
