It’s time to make some Easter cards!!!!

It seems like everyone is doing spring/Easter cards. Well it is that time of the year after all. So I’m joining you all… There’s so many cute cards out there. I wish I could show you all of them. There’s just so much inspiration. One of the cards that I’m sharing with you is a card that I cased from one of the blogs that I follow. Laurie from Just Give Me Stamps is very talented, her cards are just beautiful… you can find the card that I cased HERE…

And here is my card… So what do you think???

I used dollar clear stamps from the Studio G.
Martha Steward ink.
SU scalloped punch.
CM 1 1/2 circle punch.

The second card I did is a simple card but I love how it turned out.

Used:
Studio G clear dollar stamps.
Scalloped decorative scissors… yeah, I really need to get some of those border punches… but until then I’m using my decorative scissors..
Paper.

Hope you liked my start on Easter cards. Let me know what you think of them!!!
Thanks so much for stopping by and visiting me today!!!

Hope you all are having a good Monday.
I did this card couple of weeks ago just haven’t shared it with you all yet. So I thought I’d do that today.

I used Lyrical Letters cartridge to cut the flower out then I went over with some silver ink/chalk from Colorbox and added some pink gems at the end.
Again I used my “for now” favorite stamp set by American Crafts “Sentiments” from the small set.
Some autumn Leaves “Swirls” stamps.
Cardstock.
I also did a technique that Jennifer McGuire shared in one of her videos on how to do a banner. I love her videos. She explains things so well. Here is a LINK to the video where she shares how to make that banner.
Zing embossing powder.

Thanks for visiting me today!!!
Have a wonderful week!

Hello everyone!
I hope you all are having a great weekend.

I wanted to tell you all how much I appreciate your comments! Thank you for your sweet and heart felt complements!!! They truly mean a lot to me!!! So Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!!

This is a card that I made for my so very talented friend Kim from Memories In Thyme…
She asked how I did the flower from my “Wish” card you can see it HERE… Sorry Kim, I don’t have a link to a video or any other tutorial, this is kind of something that I’ve seen or read while checking out blogs. Don’t really have an actually link…

But this technique is so easy to make. There’s also several ways that you can do this. For the “Wish” card I stamped with embossing ink on white card and embossed it with clear embossing powder. Then I jut took my SU blending pen, got some chalk on it and colored the flowers like I would with a brush. That gave me a water coloring look.

Now for this card that I’m going to show you today I stamped on brown cardstock with embossing ink and embossed it with Zing “Brown Sugar” embossing powder.

As you can see in the photo I just took that like sponge thing that came with my chalk pad and I just rubbed some red on the flowers. And that’s it.

Kim, I hope this helps!!!

And here is the finished card! It would have looked just as fine with out the chalk on the flowers. But I like how the chalk adds just a little something extra to the card.

And up close!! as you can see there’s not a lot of chalk on there… so don’t worry how much you use. The main thing is to have FUN!!!

Stamps used:
CTMH “Happiness” and “For Every Occasion” stamp sets.

Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today!!! Hope you’ll give this technique a try, it’s so much FUN!!!

HUGS!

Did couple more cards this past week so I thought I’d share them with you all. I know that people on mainland are so ready for some spring and sunshine!! All though we are in Hawaii and we don’t get snow or too many gloomy days like you all do it does get cold for us here. I know you all are laughing at me right now “Cold in Hawaii?” yeah, for us it does get cold… I guess I’m just ready for summer already!!! So I did some Birthday cards using bright colors.

Enjoy and I hope you’ll like them!

Let me know what you think of these cards!!! Comments are always welcomed!!!

I say it’s better late then never!!! So here I am posting couple of Valentine’s Day cards that I did.

My husband and I don’t do Valentines Day. It’s just something that we never did, well he did get flowers for me one year and that was really sweet it’s just something that we don’t make a point of doing. But this year after looking at all the wonderful cards and projects that other paper crafters did I decided to make a card for my husband just to let him know how much I love him and what a wonderful husband and daddy he is. The Lord really blessed me with a wonderful husband!!!!

This is what I came up with!!! This year Valentines day was on a Sunday and I come home before my husband from Church, he drives the buss for our Church Buss Ministry so he comes home little later. I had the card waiting for him next to his bed side… Took him some time to see it, ha ha… but he LOVED it!!!!

Used:
Cricut “Doodlecharms” cartridge for the heart.
CTMH “Endless Love” stamp set.
Inkadinkado “Floral Flourishes” stamp set.
Brown Cats Eye chalk.
Zing “Blush” embossing powder.
Martha Stewart Pink ribbon.
Pop up dots to pop up the heart.

And this card was just for FUN!!!

Used:
CTMH “Love Flourishes” stamp set
CTMH “Endless Love” stamp set
Martha Stewart Pink ribbon.
Zing “Blush” embossing powder
Red Heart sticker.
Gemstones.

Thanks for stopping by my blog today!! I hope you all had a wonderful Valentines Day!!!

Oh and I have I said how much I love playing with my heat embossing things, it’s so much FUN…

So anyways, here are the cards…. Enjoy!

I really love the look of simple cards. Plus I can get more of them done when they are simple to make…

Here is the last set of cards that I did for our Ladies Fellowship last week Thursday. These are very simple and easy cards to do. I know, I know… I’m using this stamp set way too much. But I just love it. The images are beautiful and they stamp so nice and clear. But what a girl to do? When you get a new toy you just play with it as much as you can… well at list that’s what I do.

Used:
Stamp set by American Crafts “Sentiments” both large and small.
Cardstock and printed papers.
Brads.
CTMH “God Bless You” stamp set.

Thanks for visiting my blog today!!! Hope you enjoyed these simple cards!!

HUGS!
