Wonderful Mother + Liebster Award

Hello Everyone,

Here is a card I made this evening from some of the leftover scraps from this weekends class, and what I had out on my table.



I've used the Secret Garden Bundle and a Retired set of stamps called Well Scripted.  We actually made an Oval Easter Easel card in class, with the Easter Greeting in that set and were using the Oval Framelits dies.  One lady, folded the wrong oval, so I gave her a new one, and I've used it on this card (Pool Party).  Once I'd run it through the Lacy Brocade Embossing Folder, you couldn't tell it had fold creases across the centre and the piece was salvaged.  The base of the card is Island Indigo and I've added some of the SAB dsp trimmed with some Rich Razzleberry Card.

I would like to thank Vicki, for spreading the love my way.  She has nominated my blog for this Liebster award.  This is my second Award in a week, however in the spirit that this award was intended

 
I have found another 5 blogs to "spread the love".  Here are some blogs that I like to check out regularly by some very talented ladies, in no particular order.  You may like to follow them, or leave them some comments.  I know it will make their day.  It always does mine, when positive comments are left for me.

      Thanks Vicki, not sure if I did it correctly, but just used two pieces of ribbon tied at once with the "bunny ears" method.

Hello Everyone, Welcome to our Wednesday card sketch challenge at the Paper Craft Crew.  Here's our sketch this week    I'm using some designer papers called Merry Moments combined with Festival of Trees stamp and greeting from Teeny Tiny Sentiments.  The cardstock used is Whisper White and Smoky Slate with inks of Old Olive and Real Red.  The greeting comes from the Teeny Tiny Sentiments stamp set and has been punched out with the Washi Tape punch. Here's a closer look.  I love how the Designer papers add so much colour this this card.  The Festival of trees stamp has been combined with the Tree punch for this card. Thanks so much for joining me this week to view my card.  For more inspiration please visit the Paper Craft Crew challenge and see what our other Designers have created this week. Have a great day.

Music Teacher Farewell // Paper Players #173 Shaped Card Challenge

Image
Hello Everyone, It's a sad week for my daughter and her friends who have really enjoyed what the music program offered them at the High School this year.  Their very talented teacher will be moving on to a new school and they're having a little party for their last day of the Vocal ensemble practice which was an extra activity that he undertook with the students, as well as teaching them to play all sorts of instruments in lesson times. His speciality though, Guitar!  I have decided to enter this card into the Paper Players Shaped Card Challenge this week.  While not specifically made for the challenge, I think it's a pretty cool shape and fits the criteria.  I also think more people deserve to see this card. When asked to make a card for the group to give him, with that in mind I found some inspiration on Pinterest and came up with this card. The hardest part for me was getting the shaping right, and I had to call on my Artistic daughter to draw the edge...

Just Add Ink 184 - Just Add Bows

Hi Everyone, How are we this Friday?  I'm good, been to the Dentist this morning for my regular check.  The good news is today was relatively painless, the bad news is I have to go back for some fillings.  Yuck! There's a great challenge at Just Add Ink this week brought to us by Trish to Just Add Bows.  The paper variety are so popular at the moment so that's what I'm making today. I've used my Extra Large oval punch with some of the gorgeous Winter Frost Designer Series Paper pack.  This is one of the foil sheets from the pack for my bow.  I've kept this card simple and elegant making a square card, so that it looks like a gift. Here is a closeup of that bow. I've used Bermuda Bay and Whisper White cardstock today with the Winter Frost paper pack.  I really like the colour combinations in these papers.  You can pack these cards quite quickly and they look so effective. Thanks for stopping by today to view my card.  P...
