I needed to create a Birthday card so I decided to use products featured in the Pretty in Pink special! This card is pattern #12 from the Make It From Your Heart Vol 4. I used the February Stamp of the Month - Sunny Thoughts for my sentiment.  It doesn't really show up here but I used Raspberry pigment ink to stamp "birthday wishes" and then heat embossed Clear Embossing Powder on it for a shiny effect.   "Wishing You Warm" was heat embossed with Gold embossing powder. I random stamped a little flower with Raspberry ink onto the...

Today I am showcasing the Cross-Stitch Love Stamp Plus Thin Cut.   I LOVE this stamp.  I couldn't wait to try this stamp out.  The shading you see in the cross stitch pattern is from stamping it just one time!  The set comes with three coordinating thin cuts - one for each flower. I wanted to try out a technique I saw using the thin cuts to showcase the stamp by stamping the image on the base of the card front and using the Thin Cut in a popped up layer.  So, how did I know wher...

Welcome to the December Stamp of the Month Blog Hop! This month we are featuring A Little Bit of Pun , This set has 17 stamps! If you have come here from Brenda Lapp's Blog , you are on the right path! The blog hop is a great big circle, so you can start here and work your way around. If you get lost along the way, you'll find the complete list of participating consultant's HERE . I thought these stamps would make great little 3x3 Valentine cards!  I kept them very simple - no extra cardstock or papers.  I just stamped them with my Momento ink and used Watercolor pencils to color.  I used a small Waterbrush to blend the watercolor.  Once that dried, I added some Clear Shimmer with our shimmer pen.   I also used a journaling pen to outline the card to give it a finished look.  Each card is stamped with a red heart.  These were so much fun to create! Products Used: White Daisy Cardstock A Little Bit of Pun - December Stamp of th...

Today is my youngest daughter's birthday so of course I created her birthday card!   I wanted to use a mix of fundamentals so chose papers from Whimsy and Basics papers.  I based my card design off a design I found on Pinterest created by Denise Tarlington.  It's really a simple design which made the card very easy!  I used the Thistle and Crystal Blue papers from Whismy and Charcoal designs from Basics.  Basic papers really do go with ANY of our paper packs.  It's my favorite pack out of the four (Whimsy, Adventure, Enchantment and Basics).  I cut a few succulents, my daughter's favorite, from our Flower Market Cricut cartrigde.  I used the lighter tone of Thistle for the base and Charcoal cardstock for the outline.   Since this is a BIRTHDAY card of course I had to add sparkle so I used our Clear Shimmer pen on the succulents.  I can't believe that my camera actually picked up the sparkles!   I kn...
