Happy Bee's....

Hello and Happy Thursday Crafty Peeps!

I was playing around in my Silhouette program

and made these super Fun Cards - 

Aren't they cute??? I thought they turned out adorable!

I realized after I started taking the pictures that I forgot to

put a sentiment on the fronts! OOPS!!

Here's a close up of one of the cards - 

I Popped up the sweet little bee's

Funny that I say "sweet" for bees! Real Bee's are NOT Sweet! 

And I'm allergic to them! (Fun Fact) LOL

I'm using Digital Files for the bees (FlyPixel Studio)

And the Papers (Scrap de Yas)

The Clear Adhesive gems are from Stampin' Up & CTMH

I used Fun Foam to pop up the design on the Black Cardstock

And I added Some Clear Wink of Stella to all the black areas

on the little bees - 

Here's a look at the inside of my cards - I added more cute bees

and I trimmed a strip of the DP to go along the bottom -

I used a stitched Rectangle frame die to add a little something as well

The Sentiment is a Digital Stamp set from Polka Dot Orchard

It's called Bee Hoppy

It's supposed to read "Hoppy Thoughts for my BEE-utiful Friend"

But I wanted it to say "HAPPY" instead, so all I did was

print out the original sentiment then I took my black

Micron pen and added a little line to the "O" and

BAM I made Hoppy into Happy!!!

Nice way to get a little more out of your Digital stamps!!

Thanks for stopping by!!

Have a Terrific Day!!

Trendy Bakers Twine - Have a Happy Day!

Hello and Happy Tuesday Crafty Friends!

 I'm THRILLED and HONORED to be the

Guest Designer for Trendy Twine!! 

This month they are featuring Lemon Midnight Trendy Twine

Here's what I created using this beautiful Twine!

What do you guys think??? 

I love the twine as the skirt layer on the dress -

Here's a close up of the dress - I took the top layer of the paper skirt and added

adhesive all over it, then I started to add strips of the twine - I trimmed off

the access overhang of twine from the top and bottom of the skirt

 then I started to paper piece the whole dress together -

I added some paper flowers and tiny gems - then I made

a triple bow to add to the waist part of the dress -

I made a second card just using only the paper pieces and adding a

Triple Bow with the Lemon Midnight twine - 

The Sentiment stamps are also from Annie's Paper Boutique

It's called SMILE

 it has such awesome sentiments and I love the

different fonts - I believe this is a set for every crafter

Hello & Happy Wednesday Crafty Friends!

It's Christmas in July! YAY - 

It means we have 5 1/2 months til Christmas! YIKES!!! 

And you ALL know how fast that'll fly by! Am I right?

As you guys know, I decided 2 years ago (I think)

to start making 1 Christmas card a week -

 It has been a blessing in disguise! 

Not only am I keeping up with my vow to make them...

I actually get them done early enough to already

start on the next years' cards! How crazy is that???

I gotta say, I've enjoyed making them and

it really doesn't take away from any of my other crafting -

So, this month I'm gonna be showcasing

some Christmas cards I made this past Sunday!

Polka Dot Orchard created a New Digi Set -

It's Called: Magic of Christmas

Isn't it CUTE??? 

The images were designed by one of Jessica's Designers! 

How AWESOME is that!!!

Well, I had a Ball playing with the new images 

that I made 5 cards on Sunday!

I'm soooo Ahead on Christmas cards!

Anywho... Here's one of the cards I created -

I printed out the (Ho!Ho!Ho!) sentiment on some

Neenah Solar White Cardstock, then I added some

holiday Washi tape across the card - 

Then I die cut it out with a 

Stitched Frame Rectangle Die from MCT

I colored up the image with some Stampin' Blends Markers

and attached it to my card front

Of course, my card isn't complete unless I do the inside as well

(That saves me on time) come the holidays! :)

I used another piece of Neenah Solar White cardstock and

printed out the cute inside sentiment -

I added a strip of washi tape & a cute tree image also

from Polka Dot Orchard - that set is called: 

Winter Bear

That Bear is Adorable!

 I can't wait to show you what I made with him!!

Thanks so much for stopping By!

Have a FABULOUS DAY!!

Jaw-Some

Hello and Happy Tuesday Crafty Peeps!

Do you have BIG plans for the 4th of July this week?

Going anywhere? or staying home and chillin'?

Me? I'll be staying home and probably crafting!

No fireworks... maybe some grilling & a salad or two

I'm a pretty simple gal, easy is always best for me! LOL

Recently I downloaded an Adorable Digital

Shark Tank kit and I had to make some cards

with it - So today I'm gonna show you

one of those Fun cards -

OMWORD... Isn't this just so fun??

I love that Sharks face!!! It makes me giggle!!

I started by using some Distress Oxides to create the background

While I let it dry completely I opened up my Silhouette Program

and pulled in the Digital Shark and seaweed, then I added the bubbles

in different sizes, then I added a yellow stitched frame

I got everything set up the way I wanted then put my Distress

Oxide paper through my printer - 

I used a second sheet of white paper to print out the sharks

and seaweed then cut them out with my Cameo - 

Everything was sprayed with some Acrylic Sealer

Then I added the Sentiment from (Lawn Fawn)

with versamark ink, and then I added some clear embossing

Powder over that and heat set it -

I put my card front through my big shot with the

Stitched Frame Die from (My Creative Time)

then added some fun foam to the back side before

placing it onto my White Card Base -

Of course, I had to share the inside of the card as well with you - 

The sentiment was Digitally created in my Silhouette

and I used the Stitched Rectangle Frame die from (My Creative Time)

along with a little border and a smaller Shark with Seaweed -

This is going to be a fun card to mail out to someone!

Thanks for stopping by!

Have a FABULOUS 4th of July!!!

Sweet Tea....

Hello and Happy July 1st Everyone!

What the heck happened to June?

Did I blink or something?? I guess it

was a looonnng slow blink! 😁

Today I have a Home Decor Project 

to share with you !!! WHAT?

I know.... I know... It's been a while since

I made one! Crazy! Especially since I have

sooo many I need to get made!

Isn't it CUTE??? It looks cute on my shelf anyway! 😁

So, I found the plain Lemon Sign in the

Dollar bin at Target and I knew I could make it into

a simple sign for Summer -

I used 4 different colors of Vinyl

The Flowers are Pebbles Puffy Stickers and

I added 2 Clear Adhesive gems to them

The Cute Sentiment is from the Silhouette Store (#260696)

Thanks for stopping by!

Have a FABULOUS DAY!!!
