HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY!

I hope you all have a beautifully blessed day!

 Make It Monday #163: Envelope Wraps

 with Danielle Flanders

I was blessed to be able to spend the day with my mom and dad yesterday. We went to Mass and then out to dinner and it was a wonderful visit. I am one of nine children. Thanks mom and dad for my gift of faith. Love you!

   I found some time to get in my craft room and make this quick envelope wrap. I used Stitches & Swirls Stamp Set andPapertrey Ink - Wine Bottle Tag Die. I heat embossed with three colors. I used Versa Mark then just lightly added random powder then heat embossed all  the same time. 

Thanks for stopping by. 

You Might Want To Grab A Pair Sunglasses!

I dont think I have ever made a card with such bright colors before.

Make It Monday #161: Watercolor Splats

The top card is before I decided to add more flowers and 

pop them up. I like them both, but a bit on the bright side for me.

This is the true color of what they look like in person too!

I used one of my favorite sets... and yes, I do own other sets but this was perfect for the challenge :) I made sure everything was dry then heat embossed in white.

Happy 7th Birthday Papertrey Ink

 Two cards . 

Stamp-a-faire 2014, Tropical Teal +

 FREE Stamps for a Year Contest!

All the products are from Papertrey Ink, but the sequins.

I used 7 things: two stamps two papers and 3 inks and it took less than 17 Min.

I used Propose a Toast  and Stylish Sentiments: Birthday On the card above.

I loved having these color recipe otherwise I don't think I would have combined these colors. Thanks Papertrey Ink!

 I so loved stamping this card below ( both of them really)

Stitches & Swirls   Solid Stitches & Swirls Papertrey Ink - Birthday Trio Die Collection (set of 3) All Papertrey Ink Products!

Edited to try and show the birthday is cut out of gold paper 

not black.

I had so much fun with this set. At first I was not sure what to stamp first. So I went to Nichole’s blog and she explained it was easier to stamp the stitches first. I heat embossed my stitches in gold, then stamped.  You will be seeing lots of this… I tend to over do something I love. For some reason my red is not as red as it should be … must be the iphone photo. 

Hope you enjoy your day and weekend.
