Hello Friends! Do you know what one of my favorite go-to techniques is?? Paper strips!! It's such a fun technique and now that there are dies available, it makes it even easier!


I chose some gorgeous colors from the Boho smooth cardstock pad from Scrapbook.com. I used the Slimline Strips die to die cut three coordinating colors. I grabbed an A2 size card panel and adhered all the strips and then cut it down so I could have a white border when I adhered it to my card base.


Next, I used one of my favorite stamp sets, Rose Blossom to heat emboss that gorgeous floral image. For my sentiment, I decided to go big or go home! So, I grabbed an I Love You die from my stash and cut it out with navy and vellum cardstock. 

I adhered the sentiment on top of my floral image so you can just get a peek of it around the sides. To finish off the card, I used some Pops of Color in similar shades. Although there is a floral image on this card, I think it's perfect for a masculine card! 

I hope you enjoyed today's card and thank you so much for stopping by today.

Hugs,

Carol

Hello Friends! Today, I'm sharing a card that is always difficult to create, sympathy. I always struggle because I'm not sure if adding a lot of color is appropriate but I also don't want to send someone a card that will make them even sadder. So, I decided on gold heat embossing.


I feel like this card is elegant and would be received well. I started by die cutting a panel that is a mini slimline size. I used the beautiful Wildflowers stamp set from Scrapbook.com and heat embossed it with gold embossing powder. Next, I stamped a lovely sentiment from the Uplifting Verses stamp set and finished it off with some gold pearls.


Although this card came together pretty quickly, it really looks so elegant! 


Thank you so much for stopping by today!

 Hello Friends! Today, I'm sharing a fall themed card using beautiful products from Scrapbook.com. Although we really don't have much of an autumn here in south Florida, I absolutely love fall colors and the thought of sweater weather! LOL!


This card came together pretty easily because I used gorgeous patterned paper from the Harvest paper pad. I just love the browns and yellows in the papers I chose. Next, I used a great die from Pink and Main to cut those mod rectangles. 


After layering them onto my card base, I pulled out one of my all time favorite die collections, Sprigs and die cut that out of vellum. Next, I die cut a circle and stamped an image from the Rose Blossoms set and a sentiment from the Hi Fall stamp set.

I adhered the sprig and circle sentiment onto my panel and this card was done.


I hope you liked today's card! Thank you so much for stopping by.

Hello Friends! I hope all is well in your neck of the woods. It's still super hot and rainy here in south Florida, but I'm good with it! 

Today, I'm sharing a colorful card using a beautiful stamp set from Scrapbook.com.


I used a few Karin markers and then washed over them with water and a paint brush to create this beautiful colorful background. Next, I stamped a gorgeous floral from the Wildflowers stamp set in black ink. 


Lastly, I used a sentiment from a set that is quickly becoming a craft room favorite, Hi Fall. I heat embossed it with white embossing powder then adhered my panel onto my card base.


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

Hugs,

Carol
