Hi all,

Thought I'd pop in real quick and a share card that didn't getting an loving from Paper Crafts. ;)

Here it is:

 

This card uses Hero Arts Butterflies and Wildflowers set as well as Classic Messages. The patterned paper is from Basic Grey's Picadilly 6x6 pad and and the twine is Honeydew by The Twinery.

Before I go... Have you heard of Blitsy? It's a new paper crafting deal website where you get some major discounts! Check it out! I've already placed an order. ;)

I have some cards I need to work on tonight so I'll leave it at that. Enjoy your weekend!

quick share

Hi everyone,

I can't believe it's almost been 2 weeks since I've posted a card. I'm crazy busy working a on big project but should have that done in the next couple of days. :)

I thought I'd pop in real quick before I get back to work to share I card I made recently for the last Paper Crafts call. Unfortunately it didn't make the cut and so you get to see it here. ;)

I made this for the heat embossing category. I heat embossed a circle with 4 layers of embossing powder and pressed my stamp into it while still hot to give the look you see here. Stamps are both Hero Arts: 'Blooming Meadow' and 'Friends Are Treasures'. I had SO much fun heat embossing for this call. I had 4 cards picked up for that section alone and 2 more in other categories. My new record! :)

Okay, off to work. Lots of pop dots in my future.  Fortunately my kids like pop dotting little bumble bees. :)
Thanks for stopping by!

Psst...

Floral Birthday

Hi everyone,
Stopping by to share a card I made using another one of Jane's Doodles. For this card I used Jane's Pretty Poinsettia image. I re-sized it to 2 different sizes, cut out 3 of them, and colored them with distress inks. I used one of Jane's fabulous buttons for the middle flower, along with some yummy twine from the Twinery. Who says Poinsettia's just have to be for Christmas? ;)

Thanks for stopping by. I appreciate it. :)
