Fun Kitchen Sign!

Hello and Happy Monday Everyone!

How was your weekend? Mine was busy

crafting! Lots to do, lots to do! It was way too hot outside... 

So crafting seemed like the better choice! LOL

I made a super FUN Kitchen sign for myself and

I made one as a gift for my niece -

I saw the sign on Pinterest and could NOT

stop laughing - So I had to make one for myself!

I used my Silhouette Program to make my sign

I found the pan on google as a free image 

I can't remember the fonts I used, but they probably came

from the Silhouette store along with those utensil images.

I painted a wooden frame with White Chalk paint,

then painted over that with some Red Chalk paint

Then I sanded it down some to give it a Distressed look

I'm using White vinyl from Expression Vinyl on my sign

and I found some older Stampin' Up Ribbon to attach

for hanging my sign.

This is the one I made for my Niece - 

She likes the colors White, Blue, & Maroon - 

So I made sure to incorporate all 3 colors on hers!

I also decided to add some smoke... HAHAHA

I found the smoke image in one of my coffee files and 

shrunk it down to fit her sign... I really like the added Smoke!

I attached a dark blue/white stripe ribbon to hers for hanging in her Kitchen!

She LOVED her sign and had it hanging up the same day I gave it to her!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Have a FABULOUS DAY!!!

Take me out....

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

 I wanted to share another Cool Masculine card I made --

I'm entering this card in the 
So Suzy Stamp Monthly Challenge - Masculine

As most of you know I have 4 brothers and 3 boys -
So masculine cards are something I always need to
have on hand! That is why I make so many of them
and why they are pretty easy for me to do! :)

On this card, I'm using a fantastic Masculine stamp set
by Victorine Originals called the Baseball Set!

It has lots of vintage images and I LOVE the
"Take me out to the Ballgame" song on this card in the
circle design - it's just a great stamp!

Baseball Set (10608-X)

Happy Birthday (3989-B)

Hey, Pop!

Hello & Happy Tuesday Everyone!

It's Challenge Day over at Die Cuttin Divas!

The Theme this week is MASCULINE!!

I have nooo Problem making masculine cards

As most of you know I have 3 boys, and 4 brothers -

So making masculine cards are part of the deal around here!

I'm also entering this card into the

So Suzy Stamps Monthly Challenge - Masculine

-- Here's what I created to inspire you --

This took me no time at all to create!

I'm using the Simple Stories (Hey Pop) Digital paper Collection

I designed my card in my Silhouette Program, 

then Dragged & dropped the Digital papers where I wanted them 

and then placed the Digital images where I wanted them - 

I adjusted some of the sizes and used the trace feature - 

Then printed out all my pieces on my Bazzill White cardstock -

The cameo cut the pieces out - then I grabbed

some Regular dies from My Creative Time & Lil Inkers

to get the Stitched look that I love so much!

I added Dimension behind the soda bottle and the heart

and the white card front has Fun Foam on the back for more added

dimension!

Now that you've seen what I've created - Head on over to

Die Cuttin Divas , join in the fun and create something

with this Theme! Make sure to leave some Blogging Love

for ALL those Fabulous Design Team Members

over their - They work really hard to make FUN

Challenges for you & ME! 


Have a FABULOUSLY CRAFTY DAY!!!

this THANKS card! I'm using the

Strokes of Pride (10212-z) Stamp set from Raisin Boat

perfectly with my card! :)

Elegant Birthday Wishes....

Hello & Happy Thursday Everyone!

Today's my day to take over the blog at:

SumMore Fun Stamps Blog

I thought I would share an Elegant Birthday Card-

I was in the mood to make an Elegant Birthday card

so I pulled out some Momenta Sticker Sheets I found

at my Local Tuesday Morning - They are Adhesive backed

which made this card go even faster!!!

Then I went to my Victorine Original Stash of Stamps

and pulled the Woman in Dress Stamp out

Seeing that this card was going to involve Gold, Pink,

Black, & White - I decided to stamp up my lovely

lady in some Brillance Galaxy Gold Ink

I used my Misti and got my lady positioned where

I wanted her and stamped her 4 times, just to get

that extra sparkle of gold - Then I used my Heat tool

on it to make sure it was dry...

I cut down my white cardstock piece and added a 

soft pink cardstock layer behind it - just to

give it a little separation from the dotted background

I decided to add a sentiment from the

Flourishing Thoughts Raisin Boat stamp set

I told you guys... It's my GO TO Sentiment

Stamp set! Everything is so pretty and perfect

for so many occasions!! I wanted to keep the

flow with some added gold, so I punched a 

circle out of some Gold Cardstock I had

and stamped my sentiment onto that... then

I just popped it up on my card front

Here's a Closer look at my card --

I wanted to continue to Glam up my card, so I grabbed

some Sequins in Gold, Black, & Light Pink

and adhered them all onto my card to finish it off!

I also wanted to share the inside of my card with you -

I like having the insides completed at the same time as

the outside - This way it's ready to go when I need it!

I'm using another Victorine Originals Sentiment -

This one is called (Elegant Sayings) and it has

so many beautiful handwritten sentiments in it

 I cut a strip of the striped paper and placed it across

the bottom of my white cardstock, then I used

one of my Butterfly Punches and punched out

a gold butterfly, just to tie everything together!

Woman in Dress (74835-F) - Victorine Originals

 Flourishing Thoughts (Raisin Boat) 

Elegant Sayings (10517-X) - Victorine Originals
