Valentine's - Day 3

Good morning.  Another valentine for you:


For this one, the cupcakes were stamped, colored and glittered, then cut out. I attached them to gold cardstock (which is why there is a glare from scanning).  I used checkerboard stickers for the border, punched a border across the bottom of the card, then added red rhinestones.  Hope you like it.  

Stay tuned for another...and have a great day

Valentine's - Day 2

Good morning! Here is another valentine I've been working on. Actually, you could use this for any occasion.


The flowers were stamped, colored and cut out.  I put glitter on them and let dry, then added the buttons. I put some rhinestones by the punched border to add a little bling.  Hope you enjoy.

Valentine's Cards

Good afternoon!  I've been working on some Valentines for my girls, and just want to share with you today.


I was looking for something clean and simple, and I think this qualifies.  The black and white dots are a sticker.

I will be posting more during the coming days.

Thanks for looking...have a great day!

Christmas Tag #5

And here is the final tag:

I used some background cardstock I had, then stamped the tall trees, and embossed with clear embossing powder.  They weren't very vivid, so I colored them with permanent markers.  I added some sheer silver ribbon, the JOY letters, some holly and some snowflakes.

I hope you have enjoyed seeing the tags I've made for my loved ones for Christmas, and maybe gotten a little inspiration along the way.

I hope you have a very merry Christmas.

Christmas Tag #4

Day 4:

I cut the Christmas trees from some paper I had, then added dimensional glaze.  I used the same music stamp I used in some of the other tags, and the Martha Stewart snowflake punch.  The JOY letters are from TAC stamps.  I embellished the snowflakes with jewels and glitter glue, and smeared some gold metallic acrylic paint on the side of the tag to give it some texture.

Hope you enjoyed this tag.  Tomorrow I will share the last tag.

Christmas Tag #3

Day 3 of the Christmas tags:

This tag is for Emilie, who is 8.  I used the Christmas Ornaments embossing folder, then layered the different elements. It created a fun tag that she'll like.

Stay tuned tomorrow for Tag #4.

Christmas Tag #2

Here is tag #2:

Rachel is in chorus in high school, so I chose a musical theme for her tag.  I used the music notes embossing folder, embossed the background with gold and sanded off the notes so they retained their natural color.  I stamped the JOY using TAC stamps, colored with copics, cut out and added dimensional glaze.  I stamped the music score, cut out, distressed the edges and added a paper flower that was colored with copics.  The name I used some EK Success stamps, colored with markers, punched out and added dimensional glaze.  Hope you like this one, too.
