Happliy Ever After!

Happy Friday! 

Can you believe that it is already August 1st!?!  Where the heck has the summer gone? I had so much that I wanted to accomplish and sadly, I don't think even a third of my list has been completed. Oh well... there is always going to be something to do, right?
 
 I made this card for a friend of mine. She saw my Super Hero card and asked if I could make her one, just minus the super hero vibe. :)
 I love how it turned out with the plaid paper. I also added the small heart to balance out the sentiment. I really like how this card turned out, my friend loved it too.
 For this card I used the following items:
Papers: PaperTrey Ink and Echo Park's Happy Day's Collection
This set can only be purchased during the "check out" process. Put something into your cart and then do the checkout process and LD will give you the option to purchase this set.  You can delete whatever is in your cart and just purchase this set. (Irritating, I know.)
 Heart SVG: Free shape in Make-the-Cut
   White Pen: Sakura Gelly Roll, Med.

Thanks for stopping by, I hope you have a wonderful day!

Grateful for you...

Happy Wednesday!

We're half way to the weekend people. I am still getting stuff crossed off my list. Yay me!

I have another kids card for you today.
So I know that technically this lion is a male. I know that female lions don't have huge manes, but I felt like the card needed something and so I added the bow. So much for trying to make more masculine cards. I'm trying...
 For this card I used the following items:
Papers: PaperTrey Ink, Core'dinations, and My Minds Eye's, Kraft Fun Day Collection
 Sentiment stamp: My Creative Time's, So Grateful for You

  Lion SVG: Wild Child SVG Collection
Stamp Card Shape SVG: Free shape from the Make-the-Cut shape library.
   White Pen: Sakura Gelly Roll, Med.

Thanks for stropping by, I hope you have a fabulous day!

Singing Bee's and Birthday Wishes!

Happy Monday!

How was your weekend?  I got a ton of stuff checked off my "to-do" list. I am hoping that I can stay motivated the next couple of days so that I can keep getting things done. I am going to try and stay off Facebook, Pinterest, and Flickr. Wish me luck!


I have a fun kid's birthday card to share with you today.
 The bee is supposed to be singing... does he look like he is singing? I made this card for a friend's little boy, he is obsessed with bee's. They have several bee hives on their property, so he's very knowledgeable on the subject.  He's definitely my "go to" guy whenever I need info about bee's. Anyway, I am hoping that he likes his card!
 For this card I used the following items:
Papers: PaperTrey Ink, Core'dinations, and My Minds Eye's, Kraft Fun Day Collection
   White Pen: Sakura Gelly Roll, Med.

Thanks for stopping by, I hope you have a wonderful day!

Super Hero Blog Hop!

Happy Friday! 

Welcome to the Super Hero blog hop! I am the last stop on the hop, so if you have arrived from  Amanda's blog you are in the right place! If you would like to start at the beginning of the hop, click here. 

With all the "super hero" movie's coming out, we thought it would be fun to have a hop dedicated to showing some fun "super hero" crafty ideas.

My first project was made with Jaded Blossom's newest stamp set called, Super Hero.
 I thought it would be fun to make a kids card. I am also trying to make more "boy" themed cards. These seem to be harder to make for some reason.
 For this card I used the following items:
Papers: PaperTrey Ink, Core'dinations, and BoBunny's Blast Off Collection
 Sentiment stamp: Jaded Blossom's, Super Hero Stamp Set
  Super Bear SVG: Jonathan's Bears SVG Collection

 Top Note shape SVG: Cheryl's Cute Bugs SVG Kit
   White Pen: Sakura Gelly Roll, Med.


My second card is one of my most favorite cards, ever. 
When I saw this SVG I knew exactly what I want to make with it. I love how it turned out. Hehehe!
 
 For this card I used the following items:
Papers: PaperTrey Ink and Core'dinations
This set can only be purchased during the "check out" process. Put something into your cart and then do the checkout process and LD will give you the option to purchase this set.  You can delete whatever is in your cart and just purchase this set. (Irritating, I know.)
 Shield shape SVG: Made with free shapes in Make-the-Cut.
   White Pen: Sakura Gelly Roll, Med.

 So no blog hop is complete with out some sort of give-away!


The Grand Prize give-away is a YourStory Photo, Personal Book Binding Kit!
I will be choosing a winner from each blog, in this blog hop, then I will be selecting one "over all" winner from that list. So make sure that you leave a comment on each blog in the hop! 
 I will be choosing the winners via random.org and announcing the "over all" winner Monday morning right here on my blog!
I am also having a second give-away!


Tweezer Bee Tweezers!
All you have to do to be entered for a chance to win is:

1. Become a follower on my blog, if not already.

That's it!

I will choose a winner for the tweezers, via random.org, on Sunday night. The winner will be announced Monday morning, right here on my blog!

Good Luck!

Here is the hop line up:

Precious Baby!

Happy Wednesday!

We're half way there people! I have so much to get accomplished by Saturday, wish me LOTS of luck! (Cause I am so going to need it!)

Guess what?
 Yep... I have another new baby card for you today. 
 
 This card had to be gender neutral. I think that I like it... I keep going back and forth. I ripped it apart several times and changed the colors around on the giraffe. This is the final outcome...
 
 For this card I used the following items:
Papers: PaperTrey Ink, Core'dinations, Echo Park's Happy Day's Collection
This set can only be purchased during the "check out" process. Put something into your cart and then do the checkout process and LD will give you the option to purchase this set.  You can delete whatever is in your cart and just purchase this set. (Irritating, I know.)
Shaped frame behind giraffe: Lettering Delights Cut-it-Set called, Queen of our Castle.
Twine: Sugar Twisted Twine
  White Pen: Sakura Gelly Roll, Med.

Here's one last look.

LOVE... is in the air!

Happy Monday!

Whew! So I promised to have a sewing tutorial up Saturday, but it didn't happen. Turns out sewing tutorials are a little more involved then I expected. I ran out of time and I want to make sure I don't miss anything, so I am going to push the post back a week or so. Be on the look out though! If all goes well and the feedback is good, I just might make it a weekly thing.

Anyway, on to today's card.
I really liked this cloud shape and I immediately saw the heart in the center part of the heart, so I thought the sentiment would work perfectly. I decided to keep it simple by creating the shadow layer behind the cloud and welding two of them together, to form the base of the card. I added the three smaller hearts for some color and contrast.
For this card I used the following items:
Papers: PaperTrey Ink, Core'dinations, Echo Park's Happy Day's Collection
 Sentiment stamp: My Creative Time's, Fly Away with Me Sentiments.
  Cloud SVG: Lettering Delights Chillin Collection, which can only be purchased during the "check out" process. Put something into your cart and then do the checkout process and LD will give you the option to purchase this set.  You can delete whatever is in your cart and just purchase this set. (Irritating, I know.)
Heart SVG's:  Free shapes from Make-the-Cut
  White Pen: Sakura Gelly Roll, Med.
