Bottom of my heart....

Happy, Happy Friday Everyone!

It's the weekend and it's beautiful outside today!

 I have a lot going on so I'll make this post as quick as I can!

I'm sharing another card created with this fun card kit

The card highlighted is the card I was supposed to be making...

Here's what I made instead...

The original design was a 5 1/2 x 5 1/2 square card

Mine is an A2 sized card (4 1/4 x 5 1/2)

I used black cardstock for my card base and 

I used a Stitched Rectangle Frame die (MCT) on my background paper

I cut down the label shape -

I added some extra scrap pieces on the one side

added some assorted flowers with leaves and used

clear wink of Stella on them -

The (Thanks) word die is from MFT and

the sentiment stamp is from Jaded Blossom 

I really like that I'm able to put my own twist to the design!

Have a Magical Weekend!!

I'd pick you!

Hello & Happy Friday Everyone!

Can you believe February is just about over?

WOW! We are LEAPING into SPRING! 

That means a little warmer weather (yay) and

Spring Break! My Spring break is in 2 short weeks

which means I'll be going to the other house for an entire 

week without the internet! UGH!

We'll be painting the house (at least that's the plan)

And then fixing a bunch of stuff as well - Lots to do I tell ya!

In the meantime, while I wait for Spring Break to arrive

I thought I would show you another card I made with the

We R Memory Retro Glam Card Kit -

My card doesn't look like the original card design 

If you look at the very bottom on the Card kit, it shows a

long card - well... this is my version of that card!

Mine is an A2 card size (4 1/4 x 5 1/2) and I added

other layers and a totally different sentiment

I used a stitched rectangle frame die from MCT

 clear wink of Stella on all the flowers - 

The Cardbase is a dark grey cardstock from Papertrey ink

I hope you ALL have a Wonderful Weekend!!

Retro Glam....

Hello & Happy Wednesday Everyone!

While I'm still struggling to create, I managed

to make 8 cards over the weekend using an

old card kit that I had just sitting around - 

I made a card with this kit a long time ago

and since I'm not feeling super crafty I thought this

might help jump-start some Mojo! 

The kit says you can make 8 cards, (which you can see them on the cover) 

 since I already made a card with this kit and made 8 more over the weekend

and have at least 2 possibly 3 cards left to make with

this kit... I think you can get at least 12 cards completed using

any card kit -

I never use the sizes they offer like 5x7 or the large square card

size of 5 1/2 x 5 1/2 - I use the extras from those types of

designs to create more cards with - I also prefer to use

my own cardstock for the card bases - which pushes

more cards out of the kit as well - 

These first 3 cards are the first ones I made

trying to jump that Mojo Juice!, So they

are more like the ones in the picture on the card kit -

I used Sahara Sand Stampin' Up Cardstock for my card bases

This is a long card sized at 3 1/2 x 8 1/2

The only changes I did from the kit are I added only 1 pink scallop

(the kit shows 2) and I added a faux stitch swirl from the bird to the sentiment

I also added Clear wink of Stella on the Birthday chipboard letters and

the chipboard birds wing and belly -

I also added some Fun Foam for Dimension

This one was supposed to be a 5 x 7 card but I cut it down

to be an A2 Size (4 1/4 x 5 1/2) and I also didn't add the

4 pink dots the card kit shows - I just didn't like them -

I used my favorite My creative time Stitched rectangle frame die

and added some fun foam for dimension

I also added some Clear Wink of Stella on all the green flowers, 

it gives it a nice sparkle!

This one I changed ever so slightly - I actually love the design of this one -

The original design has that background leaf as the card base -  But I used

my Sahara Sand Cardstock and added a Bazzill green cardstock layer 

then cut down the leaf design then added the rest - I had to trim the

scallop pieces and green strip because mine wasn't the size of the original -

I added clear wink of Stella to the Hoot letters and to the pink bow on the owl

I also added some fun foam for dimension and the stitched

rectangle frame dies are from My Creative Time

I hope you have a WONDERFUL DAY!!!

Christmas Cheer!

Hello and Happy Monday Everyone!

How was your weekend?? 

Mine??? Not Long Enough!! LOL

Last week I worked on more Christmas Cards...

WHY? I don't know... I just like making them I guess...

I'm already ahead for next year so that's a plus! :)

I used a Card Kit from Photoplay to make this one

I don't use kits much but thought it would be

fun to do for a change... I got the kit at a local

scrapbook store when I went to visit my sister last month.

AS per usual... I didn't follow the kit exactly on all my cards...

Like this one - I used the same layout it called for...

But I added some beautiful Snowflake Dies

and that ADORABLE Reindeer stamp which I

got from my wonderful crafty friend 

LISA @ A Mermaid's Crafts (Thanks Lisa)
