Hello Friends! Today, I'm sharing a mini slimline card using a couple of slimline stamp sets from Scrapbook.com.



For this card, I inked up the Thankful and Grateful stamp set in multiple colors. When you're stamping with different colors like this, it's helpful to use a stamping tool like a MISTI. That way, you can get even coverage for all of the colors that are being used. After stamping the image, I adhered the panel to my card base then used the nested hexagon dies to cut out a small piece of patterned paper. After that, I cut apart the thinking of you sentiment from the Slimline Floral stamp set and heat embossed it. I fussy cut the sentiment and adhered it on top of the hexagon with some silver twine peeking out underneath. I finished off the card with some silver pearls. I love how bright and cheerful this card turned out.

I hope enjoyed today's post and thank you so much for stopping by!

Hugs,
Carol

Hello Friends! Today, I'm sharing the last of my Christmas cards. I don't usually make holiday thank you cards, but sometimes you receive something a bit unexpected and a card is definitely needed. That's what I had in mind when I made this card.



For this sweet card, I pulled out the Prancing Reindeer stencil from Scrapbook.com for my background. After I inked it up, I used a green alcohol marker and added some little dots all around the images. I trimmed down my panel and added it to my card front. I did a little die cutting using the Nested Decorative Circles and I fussy cut the Christmas sentiment from the Christmas Expressions stamp set.

I absolutely love how this card turned out! Thank you so much for stopping by today!

Hello Friends! For all of you that celebrate Christmas, I hope you had a wonderful day of celebration with family and friends. Today, I'm sharing a layout showcasing my sweet family. Back in October, we took a quick weekend trip over to the west coast of Florida and stayed at a resort on the beach. It was relaxing and just what we needed at the time.



I love when we take weekend trips like this because it breaks up the every day routine and gets us out of the house for a change! For this layout I used family pocket cards, Memories stamp set and the floral borders die from Scrapbook.com. I did a little ink blending on the floral die to add color and dimension.
The ephemera is from the Some Days collection from Pink Fresh Studio.

I think this layout turned out really sweet. I hope you enjoyed it too! Thank you so much for stopping by today.

Hugs,

Hello Friends! I hope you're having a great weekend. How is your holiday shopping going? I think I'm almost done (famous last words - LOL!). Today, I have my last card to share as a Guest Designer for Spellbinders. For this card I used the beautiful Embroidery Flowers stamp set.




I don't know about you, but I love solid stamp images! I'm not the best at coloring (although I'm working on it) so it's refreshing to use solid stamps for change. I decided to add color by cutting some strips of card stock and adding a rainbow of paint splatters to the background. After adhering my strips, I simply stamped that beautiful floral image to the center using black ink. I added that sweet Just a Note sentiment to the bottom. I am in LOVE with that font by the way!

This mini slimline card came together pretty quickly and I am so happy with how it turned out! Thank you so much for stopping by today and I wish you and your family a Happy, Healthy and Safe Holiday Season!

Hugs,
Carol

Hello Friends! Like the title of the post says, each day really is a new start. Sometimes I think we need to hear that in order to believe it. I know that the holidays bring about many emotions from joy to sorrow and it's good to know that each day will be better than the last. I think we always need to be encouraged with hope and love and I believe this cards accomplishes just that.



This is my second project guest designing for Spellbinders for their Cardmaker II release. I used the New Start stamp set for those beautiful butterflies as well as the sentiment. I stamped each butterfly and colored them Copic markers and then fussy cut them out. I heat embossed that lovely, encouraging sentiment and then cut it out using one of the dies from the Build a Banner hot foil kit. 

I just love how this card turned out! I think it would surely put a smile on someone's face especially if they may going through a difficult time. I hope you enjoyed today's card and thank you so much for stopping by!

Hugs,
Carol

Hello Friends! I hope you're having a wonderful weekend! I don't know about you, but things have surely been busy in my neck of the woods! I'm popping in today to share a sweet holly jolly village card using some great supplies from Scrapbook.com.



I used the Winter Cottage two step stencil to add some color to my little village. I thought a few rainbow colors would liven this card right up! I cut out my panel using the A2 Rectangle Nested Dies. This die set is a must have for your craft stash! It's something you'll turn to again and again. After adhering my panel, I pulled out some vellum and used the Nested Trees die to create a sweet tree. I then heat embossed the Holly Jolly sentiment using the Merry Little Christmas stamp set. Lastly, I added some twine and few little silver beads to finish off this card.

I think this card is festive and fun! I hope you like it too! Thank you so much for stopping by today!

Hugs,
