It’s Shabby Chic Time!

Ongoing promotions: Crush on Color Weekly Crush on Color coordinating bundles Feeling Lucky/Craft Time Today I felt like making a Shabby Chic Card.  This has always been my favorite type of card to make.  I used the Peaches & Cream flower from the Meadow Flowers Accessory as the focal point for this card. I used the Artful Butterfly Die Set to die cut the butterfly.  After die cutting, I gently… Read More »

Eyes on You

As you may remember, another coach (Barbara Miller) and I do a challenge once a month where we use the same stamp set (sometimes it includes same colors and/or accessories) to see what we come up with.  This is Barbara’s September challenge.  Click here to go to her blog for all the details on how she made these cute projects.

Skeletons Dance – Saturday Night Fever

Ever since I saw this cute, adorable skeleton image in the Skeletons Dance Stamp Set Bundle, it reminded me of Saturday Night Fever! Do you see any resemblance? I stamped the skeleton image with Black Licorice and when dried, put a coating of Sparkle Silk all over it to make it shine.  I also flicked the Sparkle Silk over the background. The background is the Spooky Moon Embossing Folder.  After… Read More »

Eyes on You

For today’s card I used the cute, cute Eyes on You Stamp Set from the Journey Holidays Trends Mini.  During Holiday FSJ Live Event, the ladies were talking about naming these 3 cute images and someone suggested the 3 Stoogies.  So it’s Moe, Larry & Curly!  I used the tall image in this post and decided to use the one eye monster for this post. Because I was using the… Read More »

I colored in the image using our Journey Color Splash Watercolor Pencils and added the glasses and… Read More »

Humble & Kind

Today’s card features the Humble & Kind Stamp Set from the Good Life Collection. To create the sky, I stamped the Ink Splat ATS Stamp randomly over the top half of the background using Lovely Blue Ink.  To create the grass, I did the same thing with the Kiwi Slice Ink. The fence was made using the new Garden Fence Die with Hazelnut Blend Card Stock.  The sunflower is from… Read More »

Dashing Deer

Today’s card features the retired Dashing Deer Die and the gorgeous new Inspire Embossing Folder.  I usually sell off the FSJ items that retire but I think I’m keeping the Dashing Deer for a long time.  It’s makes for such an elegant Christmas Card.  What do you think? The pines are from the new Branch and Cone Die Set from the Journey Holidays Trends Mini. So glad that the Poinsettia… Read More »

Life is Beautiful

Today’s card is for a dear friend whose wife has gone into a care facility because she has dementia.  Although he is a retired school teacher, he is (as we like to call them in our area) a good old home boy.  Loves farm life.  He is a graduate of Oklahoma State and my husband is a graduate of University of Arkansas so there is a lot of fun competition… Read More »
