I Adore You

 

Happy Monday!

 

I played in the TLC at Splitcoast today.   I used pieces of the ODBD Heart And Soul Paper Collection.  I glued torn pieces onto a piece of white card stock and once the glue dried I cut out the heart shapes with the ODBD Ornate Heart Dies.  The bottom white strip is actually the 'negative' from cutting out one of the ODBD Beautiful Borders.  The sentiment is from the Be Mine set and is cut out with a ODBD Antique Labels and Borders Dies.  And that's it!

Here are the ODBD products used:

XOXO

 Hello!  Hope y'all are having a great week!  

I have a couple of cards to share today featuring new ODBD stamps, dies and paper!  The card above features Heart of Joy along with the ODBD Custom Ornate Hearts dies and the new Heart and Soul Paper Collection.  The sentiment is cut out with a die from the Custom Ornate Borders and Flowers Dies.  

 

 This card is a little 'cleaner' but I used the same banner concept.  

The sentiment is from the Love You Bunches set.  

Here are links to the ODBD products used:

 

I am entering both cards to the Central Theme for the Fan Club at Splitcoast Stampers.  

Please consider joining the fan club!  You won't be sorry!

I am also going to enter these to the Word Art Wednesday Challenge this week!

Thank you so much for stopping by!  I'll see you again soon!

Trust in the Lord with all your Heart

 

Hello again!!  Can you believe it?  Two posts in one day!!!  LOL!!!

This card is for the following challenges:

ODBDSLC189- L-o-v-e Recipe Challenge

(Layers-Ornate Heart dies-Valentine-Embossing)

WAW118-Anything Goes

F4A207-Be Mine

MIX54-Hearts

I used a new ODBD set called Clean Heart.  The heart image is stamped in pink and embossed in clear.  I cut out the hearts with the new Custom Ornate Hearts dies.  The lace at the bottom is done with the new Custom Beautiful Borders dies!  I did lots of sponging on the card for a shabby feel.  The banner is kind of curved which makes the scripture appear to be crooked but it's really not!  The heart pearl embellishment completes the card!

Thanks for looking and have a great weekend!

Be Mine

 

Hello!  Happy Friday!

Here is a quick card I made this morning!  

I followed a couple of challenges on Splitcoast:

SC474-Sketch

F4A207-Be Mine

 I used a new set from ODBD called Be Mine along with the new Heart and Soul Paper Collection and new Ornate Hearts dies!  The little bow is from a previous die release called Circle Ornaments.  I just added some pearls to complete this quick and easy card!

Thanks for stopping by!  Have a wonderful weekend!

A Little Valentine Love!

Good morning y'all!  

Today I have a Valentine project for my 'Time With' post on the

Our Daily Bread designs blog!  

There is a complete tutorial on how I put this together!  

Hope to see you there!

Burlap Love

Hi there!  Hope you have had a blessed weekend!  

It's been really cold here in my neck of the woods!  Brrr!!!

I have a quick Valentine to share with you!  Our Daily Bread designs stamps are so versatile!  I used a sentiment from one of the newest sets called The Mighty Sea.  I masked off all but the single word 'love' for my little tag!  How fun! I cut a piece of burlap into a heart shape and then used paint to make it pink!  I pulled a couple of threads out just for a little interest.  I attached it to some Kraft paper that has an embossed border done with a StampinUp! folder.  The button is made of wood and I threaded hemp twine to make the bow!  CAS!!!  

The Shining the Light challenge at ODBD this week is to use the letters in the word HEART

to create a card.  So here is the run down:

H-Hemp Twine

E-Embossing

A-Acrylic Paint

 R-Rough Burlap 

(This might be stretching a bit!  LOL)

T-Tag

The CAS challenge on SCS is hearts too!  

Thank you for stopping by!  Enjoy your week and we will see you again soon!

For My Valentine

Good morning!  The Passionately Artistic Team is once again providing Valentine inspiration!  

I made this card for my Valentine! 

I started my card with a base of Neenah card stock in white and layered up with a piece of red card stock from StampinUp! and a piece of Teresa Collins designer paper which is embossed with the Heart Blocks Cuttlebug Folder.  I punched a strip of white with an EKSuccess border punch and added this to the card.  Then I stamped the beautiful enter-twined hearts image from the Our Daily Bread designs set called Love One Another using Memento Black ink and then colored it with copic markers to match the dark red paper.  I used a Spellbinders circle die to cut out the image and layered it with a Spellbinders Eyelet circle die cut.  I laced the SU! seam binding through each eyelet and tied the ends in a pretty bow.  This is attached to the card with foam tape.  To finish the card, I added bling from Want2Scrap and sprayed the card with Tattered Angels Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Mist.  Hope my Valentine likes it!!!  :)

Have wonderful day and thanks for visiting!

Sweet Love

Hi there!  I decided to play in a few challenges and so made this card late last night.  

MMSC89-Sketch

SSCC75-Show Love without words

TSTR48-Sweethearts

WT308-Hearts

ODBDSLC47-Choose a past challenge:

#26-Dies or Punches

#27-Texture It

#43-Something Old, Something New

 This beautiful heart image is an Our Daily Bread designs image from 2009 called Love One Another.  I colored it with copics to match the K & Co designer paper which is embossed with the Cassie's Brocade embossing folder.  I just recently bought this paper so that is my something new.  The buttons and lace are from my stash and are my 'old' ingredient.  Hope you like it!  Have a wonderful day!

It's Almost Valentine's Day!

Hello!  Glad you are here today!!

If you are here for the Our Daily Bread blog hop that began yesterday morning 

and ends tonight at 8pm please go HERE!!!

The Passionately Artistic Blog is continuing with the Valentine's Day theme today!  My card was quick and easy to make except for the stickles drying time!  I used a sheet of Cosmo Cricket DeLovely designer paper and embossed it with the Cuttlebug Hearts folder.  The strip at the bottom is punched with an EKSuccess border punch.  I added ribbon and the pink flower rhinestone.  The image is called Heart Tree by Stampabilites.  I colored the hearts with copics to match the designer paper colors.  The sentiment is masked from The SU! set called Lots of Thoughts.  After cutting out the image and the layers behind it with Spellbinders Ovals, I added pink stickles to the pink hearts and Stardust stickles to the yellow hearts.  And that is that!  This really didn't didn't take more than 30 minutes or so except for the drying time!  Most of my cards take about 1 to 2 hours to make so this was nice!

Thank you for stopping by today!  Hope you have a wonderful day! 

i-rock LOVE

Good morning!!!  Thanks for stopping by today!  

I have a couple of cards to show you that I made for the Passionately Artistic Blog!

I recently received a wonderful little tool called  i-rock by Imaginisce and it is so cool to play with! 

It's a tool that heats up the bling to help make it stick to your projects!  

It comes with a little stencil guide for perfect placement which is very handy.  

I used the square frame stencil on the card above with sparkly and white bling.  

I added bling to this card without using a stencil guide.  This is a very versatile tool and I plan to use it quite often.  It is battery operated and does get pretty hot so it is important to never leave it unattended especially around children.  You also want to be certain of your placement because these little blingies are not coming off!!  But no more worries of the bling falling off while being mailed.  LOVE that!!!

Hope you like my projects today!  Have a great week!

Here are the other supplies I used on the cards above:

House Mouse stamp and StampinUp! stamp

Neenah White card stock

Martha Stewart designer Paper

Cuttlebug Folders and Corner die

Copic Markers

Spellbinders dies and StampinUp! Punches

Lace, ribbon and ric rac

Distressing tool

Memento ink and Tim Holtz Distress ink

Cuttlebug Challenge #67

Good morning everyone!

Today is another Be Inspired Wednesday challenge for you from
The Cuttlebug Challenge Blogspot!
This week we are creating ATC's for Valentine's Day!
I love making ATC's. The smaller size can be challenging but is really fun too!
The base for both of my ATC's is a regular standard size (2 1/2 x 3 1/2) playing card!

This ATC is all Cuttlebug, no stamping! The papers are SU! Whisper White and Real Red patterned paper. I sponged with Rose Red ink. The background and the sentiment are done with the Love Language Combo embossing folder and dies. I also used Floral & Scroll Border Dies and Hearts and Stamps Bundle Dies. I added extra flowers, layering a few of them. I finished with lace, pink sparkly thingies, red twine and red rhinestones.

Now, for this card, I embossed a piece of pink designer paper with the Heart Blocks embossing folder and dirtied it up with Creamy Caramel and Chocolate Chip inks. Then, I stamped the Inkadinkado image with Memento Brown ink onto vellum and used clear embossing powder. I attached this right over the pink and made sure is was stuck down real good. (I used my Xyron for the adhesive) I dirtied it up some more, added the lace, pearls, brown twine and SU! flowers and large pearl.

I hope I have inspired you to make your own little ATC's!
