Hi,
The card featured today is a card I had the pleasure of making with my sister, Sue who was visiting. She needed a special birthday card for a dear friend who has had a lot of medical heart-ache. We thought the Neat & Tangled Succulent Journaling Card stamp set would be a perfect starting point.

Hi there friends,
Today we are visiting little piggy and his delicious treats! I wish I could eat one right now… who doesn’t love a tasty cupcake?
Anyway, I am getting sidetracked with the thought of cupcakes… I will set aside my instant sugar craving and move on to making this card.
This card is a simple one to come together. It is a 5.5″ x 5.5″ card, one of my very favorite sizes and is created using My Favorite Things new stamp and die set, Hog Heaven and their new Jumbo Peek-A-Boo die. You can check out all the supplies used…just scroll to the bottom for a complete list.
Hi Everyone,
I am Ruri and I am bringing you today “Fluttering Butterflies”. Though it has a happy birthday greeting on it, it truly can work for all occasion – just change the sentiment. I just love those kinds of cards, don’t you! You never know when you need one in a pinch!
I love to color so coloring these butterflies by Avery Elle with my much loved Copic markers was such fun. Try your hand at it. You will see how fun and beautiful they turn out!
Hello again,
I am back with a romantic butterfly card, using the Penny Black’s Delicate Wings Creative Die as the focal point. This card is multi-layered with liberal use of the beautiful Shimmerz Paints. They were perfect for this since they have so much shimmer and beauty!
I also made a matching envelope simply with the Envelope Punch Board by We R Memory Keepers. I just love this board. It makes making any size envelope a SNAP! With the help of a complimentary butterfly stamp and Antique Linen Distress Ink, a few stampings on the envelope and a flourished recipient’s name on the envelope too, you have a very special personalized piece of art from you!

Hi there,
Today we are featuring two fun little cutting dies by CottageCutz. The Rose Doily and the Doodle Flowers are the highlights of this card. Sometimes, I think we overlook the simplest dies. These 2 CottageCutz make the perfect addition to this card project. Along with these two die cuts, there is lots of fun layering of simple elements. Let’s get started….
