Sparkly Chevron Birthday Card

Image
Top of the morning everyone.  I trust you are having a great day.  I have a super fun project that was inspired by Jennifer McGuire.  You can see her original video by clicking here .  My daughter really likes teal and brown and she also likes chevrons.  She recently celebrated her 19th birthday so I decided I would use teal along with the brand new LG bundle from 3 Girl JAM to create a sparkly fun birthday card for her.  I used silver to replace the brown. The video will walk you through the glitter techniques as well as the card making process, so I am just going to list the supplies I used here: Cricut Close to my Heart Art Philosophy cartridge and stamp set bundle Teal and Grey cardstock from my stash Paper Trey Ink white cardstock (card base) Perfect medium and Pewter Perfect Pearls Silver Glitter from EK Success Teal glitter from a scrapbooking store (? brand) 9" Xyron Heidi Swapp Chevron stencil ATG and foam tape LG Bundle from 3 Girl...

Distress Watercolor Thank You Note

Image
Good morning everyone.  I have so many things to make right now that I spent some time recently crafting like mad.  I really needed to make some thank you notes and one of them had to be for a man.  There are so many fun things that you can do with Distress Inks and I have been really inspired watching Kristina Werner.  You can check out the video where I received my inspiration here .  It is pretty easy to come up with your own backgrounds by just taking a few simple steps. I also wanted to join in on the current 3 Girl JAM challenge - Yellow, Orange, and Green with Ribbon.  Doesn't that sound like a good challenge.  I knew that the 3GJ Thank You flair and the Harvest Orange would be perfect for this fun card.  You can order your own by clicking on the links within the names of the products.  Don't forget to use the code "CP10" for a discount on any 3 Girl JAM order.

Calm #3 Mixed Media Tag

Image
Good morning everyone.  It is once again time to make a mixed media tag for a swap at Art & Sassy.  The theme for this month's tag was "doodling" and it was definitely a stretch for me.  I am not much of a doodler so I was quite nervous to implement this into a tag.  It ended up being fun to do. Supplies used: Cricut Art Philosophy Cartridge (tag cut at 6.25") Chipboard Gesso Folk Art Pink Chiffon Pearl Paint Recollections Clear Stickers Sweet & Sassy stamps - The Future Micron pens - black 03 and 05, purple Bic Pens - Yellow, Green, Orange, hot Pink Memento Tuxedo Black ink pad 3 Girl JAM "Baby Girl" crinkle ribbon Really Reasonable Ribbon - Grey Pearl Bling (rope) White eyelash trim SEI "Charming" paper How about a video?

Card of Encouragement

We all need to be encouraged sometimes, don't we?  Card making is one of the ways we can use to be an encouragement to someone.  This card was designed with just that in mind. I absolutely love the way the 3 Girl JAM - Aqua Splash crinkle ribbon matches the designer papers.  It is part of the Caribbean Splash bundle and you can get yours by heading to 3 Girl JAM .  Be sure to use the code "CP10" to receive a discount on everything you order. Other Supplies: Iced Spruce Distress Ink DCWV "Linen Closet" 4X6 pads Sweet & Sassy "The Future" stamp set Spellbinders "Labels 5" Foam tape Pearl bling   Thanks so much for stopping by today.  Remember to take some time to enjoy the little things.

Thankful Beyond Measure

Image
  I have so much to be thankful for and I hope you do as well.  There is a special group of ladies in Farmington, New Mexico that I am particularly thankful for and I wanted to send them a card to express my gratitude.  I found these fun papers from the Basic Grey PB&J collection in my 6X6 pad stash and went to work. My original plan was to use a cool technique I learned while watching Jennifer McGuire.  Unfortunately, that didn't come together well this time, so I'm going to have to practice a bit more.  I really like the whimsical feel the patterned paper adds to the card though. I actually use quite a lot of thank you notes so I made 2 while everything was out.  They were slightly different so I decided to share the second one as well.
