Congratulations card

Hi There! I hope your weekend is off to a great start! I am definitely looking forward to the weekend because my husband and I will be celebrating our 8 year anniversary by having a nice weekend getaway. I plan to post pics at a later date. :-) Today's card was made for my sweet friend Chi who has a friend that recently found out she's pregnant! I love hearing wonderful news like that and I was more than happy to make a card for her.

When I started thinking about the design for this card, I thought to myself what image screams baby? Well a onesie of course! So, I stamped the clotheline and stamped the onesie's onto patterned paper and cut them out. I then stamped the clothespins and cut those out as well. I used an embossing folder to create the branch-like image in the background, added the little hearts on top, the sentiment to the bottom and the rest as they say is history! My friend texted me to let me know that her friend really liked the card and that just makes my heart smile!

All supplies used are listed below, and I want to thank you so much for stopping by! Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Supplies:
Patterned Paper - My Mind's Eye (Indie Chic)
Stamps: Papertrey Ink (Heart Prints), Avocado Arts (Hello Friend), Fiskars
Embossing Folder: Provocraft

P.S. To all of my card making friends out there...Happy World Card Making Day!!!

Happy Birthday Scrappy Chick!

 

 

Hi There! I hope you all are doing well, and are having a wonderful week so far! I would first like to say that I absolutely adore this image/stamp set! I don't have many scrappy friends, but the one friend that I do have is super scrappy and today just so happens to be her birthday! Happy Birthday Leslie!! I made this card for her (hopefully she opened it already!) and I sure hope she likes it.

 

I purchased this stamp set from the Close to my Heart booth at the Scrapbook Expo that was down here recently. As soon as I saw it, I knew I needed it to make a card for my friend. She was stamped then colored with Copic markers, I did a little paper piecing for her apron then added the happy birthday sentiment. This card was pretty quick to whip up considering I've been thinking about what I wanted to do for about 2 weeks! Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you enjoyed today's post!

 

Supplies: 

Patterned Paper - My Mind's Eye (Indie Chic)

Stamps - Close to My Heart (Ms.Scrapbook), happy birthday (Papertrey Ink)

Misc - Copic markers, ribbon, rhinestones



Thank You cards Part 2

Hello friends and happy Saturday! I have Part 2 of my Thank You card series today and these cards truly make me smile. The vintage camera image gives a nice homey feel and if you double-click on the second photo you can see the "film" from the camera has a little sentiment stamped on it. This is definitely one of my favorite stamp sets (I'm sure this will not be the last time you see it!). I used a slight variation of a sketch challenge by My Favorite Things and went from there. These cards were part of the 14 thank you cards I made for my co-worker and I have one more set that I'll be showing in the next few days. I hope to have a little step-by-step tutorial for the last set, so I'll be busy working on that!

I hope you all have a fantastic weekend and thanks so much for stopping by!
