Hello everyone and Happy Monday! I love celebrating birthdays and special occasions. It's always fun to be able to create something unique and from the heart, for a special someone. Today I'm sharing a quick card I created uaing this month's Spellbinders Small Die of The Month Kit and a sentiment from last year's June Kit. It may be called small, in no way does it refer to the amount of love put in this kit. For the month June, you get a adorable cupcake die set, with a candles and flower detail, perfect for creating handmade birthday love! I used one of the glitter paper packs from Die Cuts With A View and a American Crafts birthday paper pad, to cut all my images. Creating this cover to celebrate my nieces birthday , I used one of the sentiments from last year's kit, that appropriately says "Let's Celebrate". I adhered all my components over a standard A2 size card (4.25x5.50) and finished it off with some colorful Nuvo Crystal drops! These die ...

Hello everyone and welcome to another Card Making #tutorial, this time using the Count The Stars Stamp and Die set from Spellbinders with the Bork stamp set from Ink Road Stamps! I wanted to create a fun birthday card that could be used for any age, and i thought uaing this stamp set from Ink Road Stamps, was the perfect touch. It has 6 adorable doggy images, and I chose the fluffiest one in the bunch. I stamped my image on some Park Lane 110# smooth white cardstock, uaing my Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I added a bit of color by using my number LG2 and LG4 gray tone Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers. Once my image was fussy cut, I was ready to create my background. I had seen a stencil from My Favorite Things, that has several circles in different sizes and it was used to create this fun background effect with some Distress Inks. Unfortunately, the stencil was sold out. But, I did have some stencil sheets, so I whipped out my circle dies and created my very own stencil! I used my distres...

Hello everyone! Today I have a card that's very near and dear to my heart. The Month of May is Fibromyalgia awareness month, and the signature color is a gorgeous deep purple. As someone who lives with fibromyalgia, I wanted to create a card that shows how delicate and fragile we can feel. Living with chronic pain, every day we do the best we can to continue pushing forward and carry on with responsibilities. I did a very simple watercolor background, uaing my Gansai Tambi Watercolor Palette and Prima Conffections Shimmer palette. Once it was dry, I was able to die cut the Lovely Lilac Die Set from Spellbinders, using black cardstock for the Silohuette portion of my die cut piece. To add an extra layer, I blended some gold ink on my card base, propped my flower detail on some foam tape, and finished my card with two beautiful sentiments.

Hello everyone and welcome to another color Throwdown Challenge! For this week's challenge we had to use Coral, Green, Kraft and White in our cards and projects and I thought it would also be the perfect opportunity to use one of my favorite stamps from Ink Road Stamps, Bloom Where You Are Planted. I wanted to create a dimensional card, so I used my Spellbinders Platinum 6 Machine to cut some Hexagon and Curved Rectangle nesting dies from Spellbinders. To create the dimensional effect, I stamped my images on both die cuts, by laying one right on top of the other. This creates a "cut apart" effect, that fools the eyes and adds a layer of interest to my card cover. This was the perfect opportunity to also showcase the American Crafts colored pencils I recently got, and they worked very well to add some simple color to my images. These color challenges are amazing, and give a boost of creativity. I encourage anyone and everyone to follow along on their Instagram for we...
