Fresh Berries

Hello, crafty friends! Today I have a card that features the new Fresh Berries stamp set and dies from Pretty Pink Posh. This is such a fun set with all of the different berries, berry basket and sentiments.

I used just the strawberries from the set along with the leaves, berry basket, flowers and the die cut sentiment. I also used the strawberry stencil for my background and for me I think my card is a tad too busy. I tried to anchor my images by using a strip of red card stock down the middle but I think the next time I used this stencil I’ll use it on a colored piece of card stock so my images pop a little more. Along with the Fresh Berries set I used the Pretty Pink Posh Bee Friends set. I colored all of my images using copic markers and used foam tape to pop up the two bees and the flower on the basket.

You’re so Tweet - CTD751

Hi there! It’s Wednesday and time for this week’s Color Throwdown Challenge were we have some great new colors to create with!

For the card I created for this week’s challenge I used the Pretty Pink Posh stamp set Spring Robins along with the Decorative Birdhouses dies. I used copic markers to color all of my images and used peacock feathers, mustard seed and vintage photo distress oxide inks to shade the die cut bird house. I also used the Outside in Stitched Rectangle dies from Lawn Fawn to die cut my panels.

Lemon Cupcakes

Hello there! You may or may not have noticed that I haven’t been blogging/card making very much over the last few months. The reason being is that our youngest son has had some serious health issues and our family has been under a lot of stress. Needless to say that right now things are stable and I’ve got the bug to create again so today I’m sharing a mini slimline card that features the Lawn Fawn Cupcake dies for the Lawn Fawnatics Challenge #152 Fun with Food. 

Since I love the cute Zesty Lemon dies my friend purchase for me, I decided to create a lemon cupcake birthday card. Along with the lemon dies and Stitched Cupcake dies, I used the Scripty Sweet die and the Happy, Happy, Happy stamp set for my sentiment as well as the distress oxide inks in wild honey, carved pumpkin, worn lipstick and lucky clover.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
