Hi Creative Friends,
Today we are sharing a new card design featuring the Lovely Water Lily die set by Honey Bee Stamps. This die set creates a dimensional water lily with all the splendor you can imagine!
Hi Creative Friends,
You may think I am crazy but I am having a blast making cards with a gradient-colored background and a clear plastic (or acetate) panel over the top. If you saw my last post, then you know I used texture paste over the clear plastic panel for that card design. This time, I embossed the plastic panel using the Concord & 9th Triangle Background cover plate to give the clear sheet a little pizazz.
My only regret is that the camera doesn’t do it justice – ugh! But, if you need a simple card that has a twist, this card design might be just the thing!
Hi Creative Friends,
I am jumping in to share two card designs that are super fun to make (and give!). They have a cool, summer vibe.
Each of these card designs uses a stencil and texture paste for the main attraction.
Hi Creative Friends,
Whew! It has been a busy week, but I wanted to squeeze in a project or two before it ends. With Father’s Day right around the corner, today’s card design is devoted to those guys in our life who love hanging out in their garages. The Dad’s Garage stamp and die set by Honey Bee Stamps has all the fun stuff to create a garage-centric themed card. Then, if your guy loves motorcycles as mine does, then this stamp set has an extra bonus by including a vintage motorcycle.
Hi Creative Friends,
I thought I would add a little twist to today’s project. It features an abstract background with modern and beautiful flowers from the Unique floral stamp by Penny Black.
Hi Creative Friends,
Welcome to my birdhouse haven. Using the very charming Birdhouse Bliss stamp and die set by Papertrey Ink you can create so many wonderful projects. Here is mine.
Hi Creative Friends,
I am sharing a little bit of sunshine with you today! To do this, my card design features the beautiful sunflower-filled floral stamp called Pure Sunshine by Penny Black.
Hi Creative Friends,
Summer is coming and Dana Kirby is here today sharing an awesome card design that is chocked full of summery tropical leaves. She used the new A Bit of Paradise turnabout stamp from Concord & 9th to create the fun and colorful background. Then finished it off with a few cutouts and cheery sentiments using the matching die set.
Take a look below at how she made it! Then, be sure to pop over to her blog to see more of her wonderful creations.
Hi Creative Friends,
I have had daisies on the brain lately. They are so cheery and now that summer is on its way, it is a good time to enjoy this delightful flower. To create my little patch of daisies I used a few terrific die sets from Papertrey Ink. They are the Into The Blooms and Into The Blooms II. These two sets are what started it all with Papertrey Ink’s awesome Into The Blooms series.
