Happy Birthday Feather Card

I always need Birthday cards and Lollydoodle paper and colors are great for Birthday cards. I used the Feathers Stamp set. At first I wasn't really loving the feather trend, but I really have been enjoying this stamp with the Lollydoodle colors- Get yours here.
Have a great weekend!

You're the Best

A simple card that went together in just a few minutes. Cutting with the Artiste Cartridge made all the shapes a breeze to stamp on.

Lollydoodle Project Life cards

I had just a few bits of paper left from my Lollydoodle paper pack so I created some project life cards. I used some blank PL grid cards as my base. I really like how they turned out! I think they will look great in my album in the future.

You Mak me a happy Camper

More of my favorite stamp! That bottom ruffle is washi tape and I have a little tip for making your own washi tape ruffle. Attach the washi tape to a piece of copy paper and then pleat. The copy paper is light weight and doesn't add bulk to the washi tape making it easy to ruffle.

I thought I would give a Lucy trailer update- In the last few weeks we have moved her to her permanent home. We removed an old deck from our backyard installed a concrete pad and a putting green. I am also going to have lots of potted flowers and an herb garden out there. I will update with better pictures in the spring when we plant! (excuse the grainy cellphone pic)

Project Life 2014: Week 7

 This week was all about the pink- of course because it was Valentine's week!

Multi Colored Feathers

I have to admit I am jumping on the feather train! At first I wasn't sure, but now I am loving all things feather. I cut this gable box on the cricut using the Artiste cartridge from Close to my Heart and then I used sponge daubers and markers to color the feathers from the Feathers stamp set.

Just Because Owl mini cards

I am making lots of these little mini cards this year. I like to send little gifts for Birthdays and all the ladies on my list are getting mini cards for their birthday this year. I do mostly 3x3s, but I found some envelopes in my stash that are 3 1/2 x 2 1/2 so I thought I would use those up as well!

Maya Angelou quote card

I am still making lots of cards for my co-worker. She lost her house to a fire and needs to thank people all the time. This card has a quote on it from Maya Angelou and I think it is perfect for a Thank you note.

Flower Power

 For this card I used Liquid glass in the center of the flower- It gives the flower a glass look as well as a 3D effect. The inside says "May your day blossom into something special, Happy Birthday"

Strawberries and FREE embossing Folders

 If you follow me on Facebook then you saw these little guys last week-they are so cute, infact I have them on my coffee table to enjoy for awhile.  Do you see the dots? Did you know that you can get a FREE embossing folder from CTMH when you buy 2 cardstock packs?

During the month of February, you qualify to receive a free embossing folder for every 2 packs of bulk cardstock (single color or combo) you purchase! That is a savings of $8.95! Select from 5 new embossing folder designs—dot, chevron, quatrefoil, damask, or stripe—when you submit a qualifying order.

Here are my 2 favorite-

Pin Inspired: First Class Fun

This card was inspired by this card that I pinned on Pinterest. I will be using this as a Birthday card because I think the tag that says First Class Fun is great for a Birthday!

Happy Valentine's Day to ALL of you! I hope you have a great day full of LOVE!

Happy Birthday Camper Card

Like I said, lots of trailer cards. I used CTMH markers to color my trailer and boy, are they smooth and easy to use! Get your camper stamp here.

3x3 trailer cards

By now most of you know I own and restored a Vintage travel trailer. Her name is Lucy and right now we are in the process of making a home for her in our back yard. So of course when I saw this stamp set in the new CTMH catalog I HAD to have it! Be prepared you are going to see LOTS of cards using it!

Valentine Candy Cane Suckers

 When you see a project on pinterest you never know if it will be a #fail. This one happened to work! I used some mini candy canes that I bought on clearance after Christmas and some white chocolate bark. I filled the inside of 2 candy canes with chocolate, added a sucker stick and sprinkles. i finished them off with a simple gift tag.

Project Life 2014: Week 5 & Week 6

 Week 5 only had 3 photos, but the story was a nice long one. I used lots of cork accents for this page. I also created a shaker pocket. Once I had every think the way I wanted it I added some sequins and wooden letters to the 4x4 pocket. I ran the page protector through my sewing machine and closed off the pocket. That lets the pieces float freely in the pocket but not fall out.

Week 6 had lots of photos. Below you can see that I started out with a scratch pad and sketched out how I was going to layout the page because I had lots of photos. It also helps for me to make sure I print and include all the photos possible.  I used the PL winter cards since the whole week was about cold weather.
