Summer Birthdays

I made this card for my sister's birthday. It's a very simple card, nothing too complicated, but I think she'll like it. I did add Glossy Accents to the balloons, but it's hard to tell in this photo.

Hope your week is going well! Thanks for stopping by.

You Are Loved

Just a quick card post today. I made this card after taking the Pattern Play online card class. It teaches how to use all kinds of patterned papers. I heat embossed flowers from the Simon Says Flower Friend stamp set onto the blue patterned paper. Love that set! The greeting is from the Simon Says YOU clear stamp set.

Thanks for stopping by. Hope you're having a great week!

CASology Furry Challenge

I created this card with the dog from one of the Simon Says Stamp sets and the balloons are from a Hero Arts set. The banner is also from Simon Says Stamp. After I colored the balloons with Copic markers, I added glossy accents to them. I'm entering it in the CASology Furry challenge this week.

I think I'm going to save this and give it to my niece for her birthday because she loves dogs. :)

Pink and Red.....

I found this Hero Arts bird stamp at Michaels and just had to have it. Some people say pink and red are only for Valentine's Day. What do you think? Can I use this any time of year, or should I save it for next Valentine's Day? 

Hope you have a wonderful weekend!

Do You Like Neutrals?

I made this card awhile ago and forgot to post it here. I used the Hero Arts Leafy Vine stamp with white ink and Desert Storm kraft paper. I have a friend who loves neutral colors so I made this birthday card very neutral for her. I added some pearls and made a 3D butterfly to finish off the card.

Almost time for the weekend, yeah!

Muse Challenge #14

My very crafty friend Virginia is featured over at the Muse Challenge blog this week so I knew I had to play along.  :)  Here is Virginia's beautiful card.

And the card below is my interpretation. I was inspired by the flowers and the colors. I also cased a design I saw on Jennifer McGuire's blog, but changed it slightly by using the die cut heart instead of the masking technique. I used the Flower Friend stamp set from Simon Says Stamps and Hero Arts mid-tone inks to stamp on patterned paper. The heart die cut and note card are also from Hero Arts.

If you haven't played along, there's still time, so go now and create!  :)  And thanks for stopping by today.

CAS-ology Challenge #40 - Word

I decided to play along with the CASology challenge again. The cue word this week is "Word." Check it out here.

And....here's my card.

Hope you have a brilliant day!  :)
