Irish you a....

Hello and Happy Tuesday Crafty Friends!
I hope you all had a Fabulous Weekend!
I spent my weekend crafting - Which was
really nice and I got to chat with a wonderful 
Crafty Friend over the Phone! 🙋

As most of you know JADED BLOSSOM
brought back their Monthly Challenges -
One of my goals this year is to try and
participate in every monthly challenge they have!

In the past, I hadn't and I honestly forget
that there are challenges out there in blog land
I think we all get too caught up in life and
forget the little things that are fun for us -

Sooo, this months challenge is 

I did struggle a little bit on this one
since I don't normally give out St. Patrick's 
Day Treats - But this is what I made to play along --


I made a pillow treat box with tag


-- Jaded Blossom Products Used --



I thought it would be fun to put the Unicorn with
that adorable sentiment since Unicorns
are Magical! Am I Right??? LOL

Anyway, the pillow Box die I have is a Sizzix one
and I just cut 2 pieces out and adhered them together
to create the pillow box - The Designer Paper is from Doodlebug

My Unicorn is colored with some Spectrum Noir Markers
on some Spectrum Noir Ultra Smooth Cardstock
That I Die cut out with my Brother Scan N Cut Machine

I added some Crinkled Yellow ribbon to the Tag and 
tied a Jute Twine bow around it --

I adhered my tag to the front of my pillow
box and now I need to fill it with some candy!!


Thanks for stopping by!
Have a FABULOUS DAY!!

SumMore Fun - Mood Board Challenge #22

Hello & Happy Friday Everyone!
Today... starts another FUN Challenge over at: 

 YAY! I know how you
guys enjoy a good Challenge!


Our Mood Board is - 






 You can use the theme, pictures, or color combo
 You don't have to use
a stamp from SumMore Fun if you don't have one!


All the rules for this fun challenge are RIGHT HERE!



Here's what I created to inspire you --



I chose to go with the flowers I see in the photos --

I'm using the lovely Raisin Boat Stamp Set Called:


OOPS A DAISY (9236-Z)



This set is so pretty - I colored all the
flowers already... I just need to get them on some cards!



I stamped my images on some Koh-I-Noor Bristol Smooth 
Watercolor paper with versamark ink and then heat embossed 
them with some black embossing powder - 
Then I cut them out with my Brother Scan N Cut Machine
I colored the flowers with my Arteza Watercolor Pens (LOVE THEM)

Then pulled out some Distress Inks in - Dried Marigold, Ripe Persimmon,
& Spiced Marmalade and blended those colors together on a piece of
White Cardstock -
I pulled out a Lattice Background Die and cut it out with 
black cardstock -- Then adhered the background 
to my blended cardstock --
and attached it to a Black card base with some Fun Foam

I really liked the flowers but felt they needed some foliage, so 
I die cut 3 Flourish Leaves in some green Cardstock
I wanted my card to have some sparkle (Who Doesn't)
So I sprayed the card front, Flowers, & Leaves with my
Sheer Shimmer Sparkle Spray - I put some heat on 
everything to make sure it was all dry.

Then tried to figure out a good place for my
leaves and flowers to sit on my card front -- 

After that, I went for my sentiment, I heat embossed it
in black as well and I used a Stitched Banner die to cut it out
Placed it near the flowers and then added a little Bling!


I hope you guys can join us --
 I would LOVE to see what you create!

Last Valentine's Day Card....

Hello & Happy Thursday Everyone!
Today's my day to take over the blog at:
YAY for me... 🙌


Today I thought I would share my last Valentine's Day Card -

Valentine's Day was Yesterday and I hadn't had a chance
to share the card I made for a friend of mine --



I die cut my Heart Circle die twice, so I could
mix and match the design together - Then I adhered them
on top of a White 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 card front -
Then I used a Stitched Rectangle Die to give my card
a nice border 

I attached my Card front to some Fun Foam, then attached it
to my Pink Cardbase --


My Dotted Heart Stamp & Sentiment Stamp are Heat Embossed with
some Fine Silver Embossing powder
I used my Clear Wink of Stella Pen to add some
Glitter to all the pink hearts, then added a couple
of Clear Ice Cube Jewels for a final Touch!


I'm using the Playing Cupid (9059-Z) Stamp Set



This set is Perfect for so many
occasions besides Valentine's Day -
I just love it!

LOOOVE....

Hello and Happy Tuesday Crafty Friends!
I'm gonna try and make this post quick for ya --

Valentine's Day is Tomorrow and I wanted to
share another Card I made ---


So not all of this card is my idea -- The lower portion of my
card with the banner, heart, circle, & sequins are from a
tiny tag card I got from my card swap group 2 years ago --

We were supposed to make REGULAR Sized cards - But one
person in the group made these little tags -
Which I had no use for until now -- I cut it and used it for my card

I added the Stitched Chevron Die and LOVE word Dies
and the card layers and design --
I offset my LOVE word die, cutting it out 2 x's
Once in Black and Once in White

I'm Entering the Following Challenges --
Die Cuttin Diva's - Valentine's Day
Cut It Up Challenge #141 - Layers of Love
Jo's Scrap Shack  - Anything Goes


I'm happy with how this turned out
and I want to wish ALL of You
a VERY HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!!
