SumMore Fun - Mood Board Challenge #25

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 went with some of the colors on the Mood Board --


I blended a couple of different shades
of orange & yellow Distress inks to give it that peachy color
Then I Stamped & Embossed my Beautiful Cross
I used a Stitched Rectangle die and cut out my image 
Then I placed it off to the side on my Kraft Cardbase
and cut a small portion off, to give it that offset look
Then I pulled out my white Gel Pen to give it that
Faux Stitch look around the border --

I found an Easter Stamp in my stash to use and I die cut

the Celebrate Word die out of Light green Cardstock
2x's for added dimension - Then I used my Wink of Stella
Pen on the word die, for some extra Sparkle and
added a couple of Clear Jewel Gems as well

 And now it's ready to be mailed off!! 



Lily Cross (2326-S)

Simple THANKS CAS Card....

Hello & Happy Tuesday Crafty Peeps!
Last week a co-worker asked me if I could
make her some Simple "THANK YOU" Cards.
And who am I to say no to that!! 😉

So I made about 4 of them that same
evening, all different and I thought I would
share one of them with you --

I had gotten the Big Thanks Word die
from My Favorite Things a while ago and
FINALLY got a chance to use it -




Super Simple and easy to do and the Co-Worker was thrilled with this one!
I even have a bunch of leftover colored letters, so I can actually
make several more of this same card!

The only part that took some time was 
die cutting the word out 7 times in all those
colors and in white - Luckily I used some
Stick it adhesive behind everything, which made adhering
the letters in the space so much easier!

I heat embossed the stamped sentiment with some
Fine White Embossing powder from SSS -
The Sentiment itself is from Craftin Desert Diva's
The Banner die is from MFT
The Stitched Rectangle is from My Creative Time
The Jewels are from Lucy's Cards

Assorted Cardstock - Stampin' Up, Recollections 110lb. White & Black
Big Shot, Heat Tool, Misti, Versamark Ink, Embossing Buddy, Fun Foam

Thanks for stopping by!
Have a Wonderful Day!!

Just Because Bunny.....

Hello & Happy Thursday Everyone!
I have a quick post for ya today!

 I'm sharing a Sweet Just Because Bunny Card




I haven't made a FLIP CARD in a looong time! So I thought
WHY NOT Today?  

I'm using the Sizzix Gift Card Flip it's Die set for my card design
and some Echo Park (Spring) collection paper

My sweet bunny is from Victorine Originals along with 
my Sentiment Stamp
I Stamped my bunny on some Watercolor paper
and colored him up with my Arteza Watercolor pens
Then Die cut him out with my Brother Scan N Cut Machine

I Die Cut a Stitched Oval shape out of pink paper and
placed it behind my bunny
Then I stamped my Sentiment on some Blue Paper
and die cut it out with a banner die I have

I wanted my bunny to sparkle, so I used my
clear wink of Stella pen and then added a couple
of Ice Cube Jewels for a final touch


Here's what the Flipped inside looks like
I added the You're some 'bunny' special
 sentiment to send a sweet message to a friend!

Shell-Ebrating YOU

Hello and Happy Monday Crafty Friends!
How have you guys been??? As you know
I was on Spring Break all last week and I
had plans to stay home and craft! Well...

That just NEVER happened! We ended up
running around every day last week... Finally,
 on Sunday, I was able to sleep in and just rest
after a crazy busy week. So now I'm trying to
play blogger catch up with all of you --

I'm hoping for Easter break in about
a week and a 1/2 that I'll be able to stay home
and maybe get some crafting done --
That is my goal... so we shall see!

In the meantime, I did have fun, Vegas
was a blast for the Hubby & myself
we got to visit with Family & friends
we hadn't seen in awhile and I got to
eat at Giordano's (my FAVORITE) Chicago
Pizza place! I knew they had one Downtown
 and we've eaten there... But going Downtown
was not something we wanted to do again...
We lived in Las Vegas so downtown is more
for the tourist which we are not! So...

While out and about getting ready to grab Brunch with
our oldest son I noticed they had opened a NEW
Giordano's Pizza off of Charleston & Rampart
I was screaming with excitement and my hubby
was totally on board with us eating there
for his Birthday Dinner... We met up with one of my
Good close friends and enjoyed the BEST PIZZA
in the world!! - Which made for an Excellent
Birthday weekend!! 

We'll be heading back to Vegas in April
for his Dr. appt and trust me when I say
Giordano's will be at the top of our list
for eating Lunch or dinner while we're there!

Anywho... Enough about my crazy week -

I do have a card to share - I made it about 2 weeks
ago and thought you might like to see it --


Isn't it just ADORABLE?? 

Remember when I made that Christmas
card with the stencil background & Penguin?? CLICK HERE to SEE IT
I told you I made another card using that fun stencil and colors
Well... this is the card!
I think it turned out so cute and just plain old FUN!

The Jaded Blossom Products I used are

Turtley Rad Stamp Set
Card Mat Dies
Card Layer Dies 2

Cardstock - Recollections 110lb. white, Tim Holtz Watercolor
Designer Paper - Doodlebug (Spring Things)
Stencil Circle - Heidi Swapp
Distress Oxides - Twisted Citron, Lucky Clover
Zig Real Brush Pens
Cupcake Image - MFT (Hog Heaven)
B-Day Hat Image - MFT (Beary Special Birthday)
Clear Wink of Stella
Big Shot, Misti, Fun Foam


Thanks so much for stopping by!
Have a FABULOUS DAY!!!

 YAY! I know how you

 You can use theTheme, pictures, or color combo

Here's what I created to inspire you --


Isn't this just darling???

I went with the colors, bunny image & eggs
in the mood board --

I'm using the Bunny with Egg Stamp from
Victorine Originals and Doodlebug Papers
I added some Rainbow Mixed Jewels as well

I stamped my bunny on some Pink Doodlebug paper
and cut it out with my Scan in cut Machine
Then I stamped another bunny out with some
Polka Dot Doodlebug Paper and Fussy cut the
Egg and the tiny feet circles ---


As you know, I like to decorate the inside just a tad -
So I stamped the (You're some "bunny" special) sentiment
from a Victorine Originals Stamp and I had some
Small Bunny Dies and thought they would be perfect
for the inside of my card along with a strip of
Doodlebug paper --









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