Hello

Happy Tuesday!!!

Today is Tag it Tuesday on the My Creative Time blog. I made a tag with the new Hello Baby Stamps and Dies set. I stamped the sweet little bull, colored him in with my Zig Clean Color Markers, cut him out with the coordinating die, and then attached him to the tag with some foam tape.

Quick, easy and cute!

Happy Monday!!!

Today is Make it in Minutes Monday over on the MCT blog. I made a quick baby card with the onesie die from the new Hello Baby Stamp Set. I stamped it, randomly, with the cute giraffe stamp from the  Classmate Valentines Stamp Set. It reminds me of a onesie that you might find at the store.

I stamped the inside with two of the sentiments from the Hello Baby Stamp Set.

Happy Friday!!!
I wanted to share a card that I made for a special little friend who just turned one. I love this  Ella and Friends stamp set from Mama Elephant and couldn't wait to get my hands on it.  

I used the "smooshing" watercolor technique for the background paper. If you search "smooshing technique" on YouTube, there are several videos showing how it's done. It's really simple and easy to do. I used the Zig Clean Color Real Brushes to color in my stamped images and then I cut them out and attached them with foam tape. I love how it turned out.

Happy Thursday!!!

Today is "Do-Over" day on the MCT blog. I remade a card that I made a couple months ago. I really liked the design, so I just changed up the theme. You can see my original card here.

I made this card for my bestie's daughter, who just graduated from college. (WooHoo Meg!) I used green and gold which were her university's colors. I really like how it turned out!

Happy Wednesday!!!

Today is Inspiration Wednesday over on the MCT blog. I found this card and used it for my inspiration piece.  I used the "Awesome" stamp from the You Are Fabulous stamp set. I lightly penciled in diagonal lines, 1" apart, and then stamped the "Awesome" stamp along the lines. I used three different shades of Altenew inks, to create on Ombré effect.

Celebrate "ReDeux"

Happy Tuesday!!! 

Today is Stamp/Die of the Month on the MCT blog. This months die is the Stitched "Capture" Frame with Arrow Dies and today we are having a "redeux" day so I re-made the card that I made at the beginning of the month. You can see it here.

On the original card, I was going for a masculine/western theme so I decided for my "reduex" I would make a cowgirl version.  I used the  Stitched "Capture" Frame (Die of the month) and stamped it with the Grainy Wood Background Stamp, in kraft ink. The cupcake is from the new Light The Candles Stamp & Die Set.

Key to my Heart

Happy Monday!!!
