Rainbow dots

Hello Friends!  I've been on a rainbow kick ever since picking up that Doodlebug paper pad.  Today I have a bunch of punched circles on a black card for you.  I love this card.  I don't think I can give it away.  Ha!  All doodlebug paper except for the PTI sentiment!  Have a great day!

Enjoy!

Hello!  I have another quick little card for you today.  Stamps are from Papertrey Ink (Miniblooms, floral fusion, and fillable frames).  Patterned paper is from Doodlebug 6x6.  Inks from PTI.

Building Blocks

Hello friends!  Broke out  a new cover plate from PTI today.   I cut it out in black cardstock and then backed it with strips from a new Doodlebug 6x6 pad.  I mounted the whole thing on a white card base.  I stamped the sentiment from PTI's Building blocks in Memento Black.  Easy Peasey!   Thanks for stopping by!

Seriously....

Hello Friends!  Another quick and simple card for you today.  Paper from PTI, image from Penny Black, and sentiment from Hero Arts.  A little copic coloring, a little corner rounding and we are done.  Thanks for stopping in!

Toadily

Hi Friends!  I have a cute little card with an image from Penny Black today.  The set is called Toadily.  The sentiment is from Hero Arts.  Papers from Doodlebug, cardstock from PTI.  Copic coloring and thats about it.  Simple and easy!  Thanks for stopping in!

Appreciated Kitties

Hello Friends!  Another kitty card today.  Same specs as yesterday with the details.  Only changes are Ocean Tides PTI ribbon, PTI Kraft, and Echo Park Patterned paper.  Coloring done with copic markers.  All other info is the same.  Thanks for stopping in!

  

Great Cat Friends

Hello Friends! I've got a new little card for you today.  A couple of cute cats from Hero Arts.

Bought this set on a whim at my LSS.  I have a feeling it was on sale.  The sentiments are from Hero Arts as well and those I paid full price for.  I colored the cats with my copic makers.  Hadn't colored in awhile and just felt like doing something relaxing that wouldn't let me eat at the same time.  I am trying to reduce the old size here.  Reading and t.v. watching drive to the snackage but coloring not so much.  Anyway back to the card- Doodlebug paper, PTI ribbon and cardstock.  That sums it up!  Have a great week friends!

Sequins

Who knew I could like sequins?  When they first started popping up I totally did not get the attraction.  But now?  Now I am in love...  Its like when I first found stickles.

Card 1- Hawaiian Shores Cardstock, PTI Building Blocks stamps, assorted sequins.  About as CAS as it gets.

Card 2- New Leaf, Hawaiian Shores, Summer Sunrise inks, assorted sequins, diamond stickles, PTI Building blocks stamps.  I wish you could see this one in person because the sparkle word is so sparkly!! I covered it in stickles in a splatter pattern.  There are also dots of stickles as well.

Thanks...

What's that?  A third day of posting?  How can it be?   Haha!  I made a few cards recently and actually took pictures- simple as that.  Today I have for you a Thank You card.  I am constantly in need of thank you cards.

This card is mostly pattern paper.  I'd love to tell you which pad but I am so lazy that I am not going to go dig for it.  I think its by Carta Bella.  The squares are from PTI square prints- stamped in Summer Sunrise, Berry Sorbet, and kraft.  The sentiment is from WMS.  Some little sequins from my LSS and its all done.  Thanks for stopping by!

Sequin Leaves

Wow two days in a row!  Is the world coming to an end or something?  I have another little CAS card for you today.  I finally hopped on the sequin band wagon.

The birds and tree are from Clearly Besotted.  I love that all the birds in the set are mirror images of each other.  I have been looking for a set like that for a long time.  The sentiment is from WMS Compact Sentiments.  Ink from PTI- blueberry sky and kraft.  Sequins from my LSS.

Inspired by....

Hello friends!  I have a card for you today inspired by something I saw on Nichole Heady's blog.  Its on this post but you may have to scroll down a bit.  Anyway I just loved the way the flowers looked with that bit of masking in the center.

 So here is my take.  I used PTI's new set, Garden Gate for the flowers and WMS say it loud for the sentiment.  Berry Sorbet, New Leaf, and Summer Sunrise inks, with the sentiment in Kraft.  Simple one layer card.

Polka Dot Card and Tag

Hello friends!  Today I have for you one card of a set I made.  I unfortunately deleted the pictures of all the other cards and cute packaging.  The set was auctioned off at our chili lunch.  So all I have left is this one sad little picture.  I might recreate this set because it was fun to make.  I used PTI's Polka dot basics, fillable frames, cardstock, ribbon, tag sale die, and buttons.  The big sentiment on the tag (one of my favorites!) is from Waltzingmouse's compact sentiments.

Baby Card and Gift Bag

Hey Friends! I have a quick card and bag for you today.  I apologize for the bad pictures.  Someday I will get my act together!  The card below was made using PTI product.  The stamps are from Baby Button Bits.  Dot Spot paper and Hawaiian shores cardstock and button.

Next up is a cute little gift bag.

 

Here is the thing I am really proud of!  My little vellum pocket for the card!  Genius and super easy! Adhere thick vellum on 3 sides to your Kraft bag.  Slide in your card!  Easy peasy and cute!  Matching tag was cut with a PTI die.  Its stamped with Baby Button Bits and Polka Dot basics. 

Birthday Circles

Hello Friends! I've got a birthday card for you today.  I made the background with polka dot basics and simple circles from PTI.  Hand cut banner with a sentiment from Wonderful Words (I think) also from PTI.  Colors used: Harvest Gold, Summer Sunrise, New Leaf, and Blueberry Sky.  I got the background idea from something I saw on Nichole Heady's blog awhile back.  Sorry I can't link you to the original.  I can't find it.

Polka Dots!

Hello Friends!  I have a new card for you today.  I used a couple of old PTI sets:  Polka dot basics and Fillable Frames.  I used New Leaf paper and ink.

Cute Little Tag

Hi Friends!  Today I have a fun little tag for you.  You are probably seeing the double tag all over the place- I thought I would give it a try.  I double cut the PTI tag 1 die from both patterned paper and cardstock.  Then I shortened the cardstock layer and gave it a scalloped edge.  A little stamping, a little ribbon and we are good to go!

And here it is all put together!  So pretty!  Thanks for stopping by today!

Thank You!

Hi Friends! Happy New Year!  I hope 2014 is starting off well for you all!  This is the first card I've made this year.  I used all PTI product.  I stamped the stitched flowers in white ink on Blueberry Sky cardstock.  I then added some shading with a white pencil.  A few red rhinestones finish things off.  The banner is PTI bitty boxes paper stamped with a sentiment from a special Thank You set from a few years ago.  Thanks for stopping by- I know the posts are few and far between.  Blogging has taken the back burner for me the past six months.  My life is a bit chaotic at the moment so I don't see blogging coming back to the forefront any time soon but I do appreciate you checking in on me!

Glittery Christmas Button House

Hey there friends!  I got side tracked from all my chores today and decided to make another little house.  This one has a button roof.  I was inspired by Melissa Phillips.

After all the buttons were in place I put on a ton of glitter.  I am no photographer so you can't really see it here but IRL it glistens. 

I am using PTI Rustic White cardstock, smokey shadow ink, aqua mist ink, copic markers, aqua mist buttons and ribbon, Martha Stewart glitter.  Everything is hand cut.  I used the PTI timeless template Homemade along with the Homemade stamp set.  Thanks for stopping in!

Christmas House

Hello friends!  I was going through my computer files today when I found the template for this cute little house.  I bought it from Papertrey Ink way back in 2009 and it was designed by Lauren Meader.  It had a companion stamp set that had all the windows, doors, and lights.  I also used the Home for the Holidays set to make the tree, garlands, and swags.

One of the best things about this house is the whole top comes off and you have a great little gift box that is quite roomy.  The whole thing is pretty sturdy and solid.

Thanks for stopping in today.  I hope you enjoyed my little house!

More Christmas Tags

 

Hello there friends!  I've got some Christmas gift tags for you today.  These are pretty small- couple of inches across maybe?  They are dies from provo craft.  I cut a bunch of them with white cardstock.

Next I stamped on the images (PTI and Cats Pajamas) and colored with my copics.

I added a little bit of stickles for sparkle.

 

And I wrapped them all up in this tiny little pizza box that I embellished with PTI and Cats Pajamas stamps and some Mines Eye papers.
