just wanting to say Hi!

Hey everybody! Happy Monday – can you believe we’re almost a week into February already?! Christmas will be here before you know it! Bahahaha (just kidding)! I’m up on the Pajama Crafter Stamps blog today with an inspiration project featuring the Prickley Pear Stamps Hot Air Balloons stamp set and coordinating Hot Air Balloon die! I stenciled a nice cloud background in stormy sky distress ink for this 3D hot air balloon that I created with several balloon die cuts!

The card base was cut from Neenah Classic Crest 110# Solar White cardstock along with five hot air balloon die cuts (using the Hot Air Balloon die) from KNC Essentials Showering Nature 12×12 paper. Using the My Favorite Things Mini Cloud Edges Stencil, a blending brush and Ranger stormy sky distress ink, I stenciled the entire card front. I gave it good cloud coverage, lighter at the bottom and darker at the top.

I stamped the balloon and sentiment from the Hot Air Balloons stamp set in Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I cut the bottom off of each balloon die cut and scored them down the middle. I adhered the right side of one to the left side of the next until all five were attached to each other and then affixed them to the card front over top of the stamped balloon. The finishing touch was adding several blue gemstones.

Hey everybody! Dang, another weekend is behind us and we’re staring at the end of January!

I created my first-ever carousel card featuring papers and tons of die cut pieces from this collection along with Royal ribbon and white enamel dots already in the store!

High Five!

Hey everybody! Happy Monday – it’s the last Monday in January already! Can you believe it?! I’m up on the Pajama Crafter Stamps blog today with an inspiration project featuring the amazing High Five stamp set from our new release! I mentioned in my last post featuring this adorable stamp set that (PCS owner) Joy’s cats do the ‘high five’ while they are watching their Sunday worship service, and I just love that! I created a diamond stair step card featuring a kitty and a couple sentiment stamps from this set, and I love how it turned out! My inspiration for this fun fold once again came from Lisa Curcio’s blog.

The card base was cut from Neenah Classic Crest 110# Solar White cardstock along with layering panels from the Keep It Simple Max & Daisy Flip Sides Pack. I stamped the sentiment on first diamond in Memento Tuxedo Black ink. Next, I stamped the kitty in black on a Solar White scrap and colored him with alcohol markers. I fussy cut the kitty and popped him up on a foam strip. I then added a couple enamel hearts from the Keep It Simple max & Daisy Enamel Shapes.

Another sentiment and paw prints (from the same stamp set) were stamped on the second diamond.

I loved the hearts on the third diamond so I didn’t stamp on that one. Yellow gemstones were added to complete the card front.

I added a plain panel on the back to write a custom message and signature.

Merry Christmas Mini Tryfold

Hi friends! Happy Thursday! We are on a downhill slide into the last weekend in January… can you believe it?! I’m absolutely thrilled to share a project that I’m entering into the Art Impressions #367 – You’re A Gem challenge! I totally love Art Impressions products and have quite a few in my stash… some used quite a few times and some that have never been used. This Christmas card features the super adorable Nativity Circlet Mini Tryfold stamps and dies (used for the first time) with some really pretty sapphire gemstones added to it!

I cut a mini tryfold card base from 110# Solar White cardstock and then used the Nativity Circlet Mini Tryfold stamps (stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink) and dies to create each part of the scene on the three sections. I can’t even tell you how much fun it is watching the scene come alive!

I colored each panel with alcohol markers and added a sentiment (stamped in Catherine Pooler Suede Shoes ink) from the Waffle Flower Essential Sentiments stamp set which I cut with the coordinating Waffle Flower Essential Sentiments die. The final touch was adding several gemstones from the Trinity Stamps Sparkling Sapphire Embellishment Mix with my Trinity Pick Up Stick.

Hugs & Kisses tag card

Hey everybody, Happy Tuesday! I hope you’re having a great week so far and it’s not too awfully cold where you are! I’m up on the CutCardStock blog today with a tutorial for making a Valentine tag card with a shaker! I used White, Cherry Red and Dawn Maroon cardstock from the new Lessebo line along with Pop Tone Cotton Candy and Silk Glitter Opulent Opal. I haven’t made a shaker card for a minute or three so I figured I’d do it up! Shakers are always fun to make and even more fun to receive!

Using the Prickley Pear Stamps Nesting Tag Dies, I cut a top-folding tag-shaped card base and layering panel from Lessebo White along with a tag-shaped layering panel from Lessebo Cherry Red cardstock. I embellished the front layer with strips cut from Lessebo White, Lessebo Cherry Red, Lessebo Dawn Maroon, Pop Tone Cotton Candy and Silk Glitter Opulent Opal cardstock. I used the Heart Shaker Pouch Starter Kit (including the die) from This Calls For Confetti to cut the aperture into the front layer.

I stamped a sentiment from the My Favorite Things Lots of Hugs stamp set in Memento Tuxedo Black centered over the aperture. I added shaker mix consisting of Buttons Galore & More Love & Kisses Sprinkletz Embellishments, Pitter Patter Doo Dadz Embellishments, and Love Story Half Pearlz Embellishments, and adhered the layer to the card base. The finishing touch was adding several flat-back pearls from the Buttons Galore & More Love Story Half Pearlz Embellishments. I also added a tiny bow fashioned from Prairie Bird Boutique red wrinkled ribbon using a wooden bow maker my awesome friend Mo sent me for Christmas!

I cut tag-shaped layers for the inside from Lessebo White and Lessebo Cherry Red cardstock using the same Nested Tag Dies and embellished the white one with a few leftover strips from the front. I stamped another sentiment from the My Favorite Things Lots of Hugs stamp set in black ink.

sliding by to say hi

Hey everybody! Can you believe the weekend is gone already?! I hope you’re raring to go on this fine Monday morning! I’m up on the Pajama Crafter Stamps blog today with an inspiration project featuring the Sliding By stamp set from our new release! I created a latch card which is a really easy design – it’s simply a bi-level card (meaning the front flap is a different length or width than the base flap) with a ‘latch’ to keep it closed! The latch on this card is a tree brad that coordinates with the trees in the stamp set! Talk about cuteness overload!

I cut the card base from CutCardStock Cougar Smooth 100# White cardstock along with layering panels from coordinating prints in the Keep It Simple Royal 12×12 Collection Pack. I stamped three clusters of trees from the Sliding By stamp set in Catherine Poole Sage ink, lining up the cluster on the right-hand side with the right edge of the front flap and inside panel. I stamped the penguin in Memento Tuxedo Black ink on Cougar Smooth 80# White cardstock and colored him with alcohol markers. I fussy cut and edged the image with a Memento Tuxedo Black marker.

I added three Eyelet Outlet Tree Brads, making one of them the latch (popped up on a dimensional), along with several snowflakes and gemstones from the Buttons Galore & More Frozen Mix Upz Embellishments. The front sentiment is from the Sliding By stamp set and the inside sentiment is from the Prickley Pear Stamps Flourished Oval 3-Holidays stamp set, stamped in black ink. I added three vertically-aligned gemstones in the right lower corner which completed the card.

Hey everybody! Happy Saturday – I hope you have something fun planned this weekend! I’m back this morning with one more awesome ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project to share created with the awesome January 2024 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades! I’m absolutely enamored with the papers in this month’s collection and I’ve made another cool fun fold. This one is a 3D window card which features a floral and a geometric print along with a journaling card and stickers from the sticker sheet. My inspiration once again has come from Lisa Curcio’s blog. I took a few minutes a couple weeks ago to look around her blog and came away with quite a few ideas for some new fun folds! She’s amazing!

The card base was cut from CutCardStock Lessebo Sunflower Yellow cardstock along with layering panels from two coordinating prints in the kit. An oval aperture was die cut into the front layer using a Keep It Simple Stitched Ovals Nested Die.

The focal element seen in the center of the aperture was cut from a journaling card in the collection and embellished with stickers from the sticker sheet. I added a back panel which I embellished with a strip of paper along with butterfly and sentiment stickers from the sticker sheet.

Howdy, peeps! Happy Happy Friday to you all! I have another amazing ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project to share with you created with the awesome January 2024 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades! I totally love geometric type patterned papers and those in this month’s kit are just awesome. I created a faux shutter card using a couple coordinating prints which I embellished with a chipboard accent piece from the upgrades. I’ve created a couple interactive shutter cards over the past few months and when I saw this faux shutter card on Pinterest, I wanted to give it a go. It’s also called a fractured card but I think I prefer faux shutter. Next one I make will have a smaller shutter area, but talk about easy-peasy!

I cut the card base from Cougar Smooth 100# White cardstock along with a layering panel and strips for the shutter design from coordinating papers in the collection. I adhered a chipboard accent from the upgrades to the center of the faux shutter area and added several Keep It Simple Back To Basics Rose Enamel Dots.

I embellished the inside panel with patterned paper and cardstock strips used on the front and added sentiment and lady bug stickers from the sticker sheet.

Hi everybody, Happy Thursday! The weekend is almost here! I have a very cool ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project to share with you today created with the awesome January 2024 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades! I’ve been having the time of my life playing with all the goodies in this month’s collection. You know how much I love me some fun folds (and I love purple) so I created a pop out accordion card featuring papers and stickers in the collection along with die cut pieces from the upgrades… all in purple! My inspiration for this card also came from Lisa Curcio’s blog. She’s one talented lady and I get SO much inspiration when I visit!

The card base was cut from CutCardStock Lessebo Lilac cardstock. Layering panels were cut from CutCardStock Lessebo Lilac and Cougar Smooth White cardstock along with coordinating patterned papers in the collection. A sentiment sticker from the sticker sheet was added to the front along with floral die cut pieces from the upgrades.

The finishing touches were adding a couple Eyelet Outlet Mini Butterfly Brads and a few yellow gemstones from my stash.
