Wish this wasn't another case

I love this card so much that I wish it was my own original design but I cased it from Jaimie. Details can be found here.

A Bold Smile

Sometimes when I case a card, I copy it exactly. Sometimes I change the colors a bit or just the paper. For these cards, I only changed the sentiment. This card is made with a paper that is so bold, less is more.

Original card was made by Julie of The Paper Pixie and can be found here.

Visiting the Parents

Does anyone else get a little bored when you're visiting the parents? I went over a few weeks ago and decided to bring along a little craft project to work on while I was there. I decided to bring a coloring project since it's easy to color and chat with my parents at the same time. And since I'm still building up my birthday card stash, I thought these candle stickers would be the perfect coloring project.

More Brides

Recently, I needed to make more cards for coworkers who recently got married. I'm not gonna lie, my plan was to recreate the wedding card I made last month for another coworker but my sister scolded me. She told me to stop being lazy and create a different card. I don't often follow my sister's advice but I took it to heart this time.

I didn't really know the coworkers so I couldn't make cards that I felt matched their personalities so I cased this very classic card from Liz. Original card and details can be found here.

Fashionably Late

Another set of cards I created back in January for the Krazy Kreations 30 Day Coloring Challenge. I was always taught if I was going to be late, be fashionably late. . . or bring gifts.

Breathtaking Bouquet (Part 2)

This card is very similar to yesterday's so saffron version but I was inspired by Cheryll Miller to add some alcohol markers into the mix. Cheryll's post details multiple techniques for using this stamp set and can be found here.

Breathtaking Bouquet (Part 1)

I purchase craft supplies more than I actually use them so it took me a very long time to use this breathtaking stamp. This is a simple card to make, provided you aren't afraid of a little heat (embossing), but it packs a huge punch. I cased this card from Kylie Bertucci and you can see her original version here. I must admit, I do like my soft saffron version a bit more and must remember to use this subtle color more often.

A (Blackberry) Bliss(ful) Wedding

On Saturday I went to the wedding of a dear friend. She looked beautiful, the groom wore a velvet tuxedo jacket of deep emerald and the bridesmaids wore blackberry bliss dresses of their choosing.

I didn't know the groom was going to wear green in advance but I knew that the bridesmaids were going to wear blackberry bliss so I knew I had to incorporate that into the wedding card. I also knew that the bride loves desserts.

I was inspired by cards from Linda Cullen and Amy Koenders so I added those cards and links below for your viewing pleasure as well.

Still more casing

I cased this from the new Stampin' Up catalog that is available to order from on June 3, 2019. I wish I could post a snap of the original inspiration but alas, you have to wait a few more days.

Since this was a fun and easy card, I decided to create it in three different colors.  Which color combo is your favorite?

Pool Party, Bermuda Bay, Mango Melody

Blushing Bride, Rococo Rose, Rich Razzleberry


Grapefruit Grove, Terracotta Tile, Night of Navy

Happy (belated) Mother's Day

I would have posted this before Mother's Day but my mom is a papercrafter too, so I didn't want to spoil the surprise.

Now I'm a girly girl, but I'm not a flowery girl. I don't know a thing about flowers except how to kill them so I don't usually purchase flowery items because I know I'll never actually use them. But when I saw the Magnolia Lane Suite from the new 2019 Stampin' Up! catalog, I had to stop myself from buying all of it in one shot. Then because I didn't buy the entire suite, I mixed some other supplies to create mom's card. Here's a sneak peek of a few of the items from that product suite.

Time Zones and A Challenge


  


 

I made the card, took the picture and was getting ready to go to bed. I decided to double check the submission deadline time, to see if I could post it Monday after work or if I had to do it during my lunch break.  4pm AEDT...ok, I'll have to do it during my lunch, no problem. 

Then it hit me, AEDT, that's a weird way to say Eastern Daylight Time...so I googled and it was already almost 3pm AEDT because AEDT stands for Austrian Eastern Daylight Time.

I guess this is why it's called Global Design Project.  This submission is for #GDP150, a fun sketch with lots of entries.

Second Post...Another Challenge


Copy and paste our badge for your blog!




  

It's been over a week since my first post and in that time, I've thought of countless things I wanted to post here...but I'm trying to pace myself.

Today's post is a response to the Freshly Made Sketches # 349 Challenge. 

When I first saw this sketch, I thought, "no problem, this is going to be easy," and then I didn't know what to do. So many people were submitting cards to this challenge and I was worried that my submission would never be as good.  I was worried about how I would make mine card standout.  So I spent my weekend working on tons of other cards, thinking that I would come back to this when inspiration struck.

And then, at the ninth hour (it was actually after 9pm on Sunday night), I decided it was time to put stamp to paper...whatever came out of the process, I'm here to have a good time and avoid doing the dishes.


In the end, it's a simple card but I love this paper and embossing powder so much.  I don't think the picture does the embossing powder justice as it has flecks of different colors in it.
