Home Sweet Home

Hello, my friends – I hope this new month has started off on a nice note for you. It’s been warm and humid here, but all in all, life is pretty darn good. We didn’t have much humidity out in Colorado so it’s taking a little bit to get used to it again. After all, I did live in Florida for 45 years, so the humidity really is nothing new. I’m delighted to share a Keep It Simple DT inspiration project with you today, created with papers and die cut pieces from our new Cheerful Cottage collection. This faux pull-tab card is such a unique and fun design, and I think it really worked well with these products.

I cut the card base and faux pull-tab panel from Neenah Classic Crest 110# Solar White cardstock along with layering panels from coordinating prints in the Cheerful Cottage 12×12 Collection Pack. I used a Stampin’ Up 1-1/4″ circle punch to punch a notch in the left side of the pull-tab panel and then tied some Back To Basics Teal Ribbon around it before adhering it to the card base. Using the Back To Basics Stitched Circles Nested Dies, I cut a circular frame from CutCardStock gold Glitter cardstock and popped it up on thin 3D foam squares. I added several more die cuts from the Cheerful Cottage Die Cut Pieces (one being a sentiment) and finished off the front with a few Back To Basics Rose Enamel Dots.

I cut the inside panel from 80# Solar White cardstock and embellished it with a strip of paper used on the front and a narrow strip cut from CutCardStock Basis Soft Pink cardstock. I added another sentiment die cut from the Cheerful Cottage collection and layered the panel on the soft pink cardstock.

Hey everybody! Happy Sunday – I hope you’re having a great weekend! I’ve popped in with a Pajama Crafter Stamps project to share today created with the awesome Prickley Pear Stamps Ham Camper Summer stamps and Ham Camper die. OMGoodness, these are definitely some of my favorites because Ed and I were full-time RV’ers for several years and we sure have some good memories! This is another one of the (many) projects I created prior to leaving the PCS team at the end of February and hadn’t yet showcased. It’s a super easy design with a washi tape background, a few stamped images, and a couple brads. I totally love it!

I cut the card base and a layering panel from CutCardStock Cougar Smooth White cardstock. I added strips of Eyelet Outlet grass and wide sky washi tape to the layering panel and stamped the sentiment from the Ham Camper Summer stamps at the top. The camper, flag and flower pot (also from the Ham Camper Summer stamp set) were stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink on Cougar Smooth White cardstock and colored with alcohol markers. I cut the camper with the coordinating Ham Camper die and popped it up on foam strips. I fussy cut the flag and flower pot and added them to the scene along with an Eyelet Outlet sun and kitty brad. I popped up the panel on foam strips which completed the card sample.
