PARTY!

This on is a card from my crafty weekend and nothing in it is available at the store. It is all older or discontinued stuff.....but maybe you own a piece or two, or something similar and you can use this as inspiration.

Wishing you a very happy day

Here is another of my stash cards.  I had leftovers from a project last fall that I wanted to use up and this glittery flower was a perfect match with the little flowers on the patterned piece.

The patterned piece in the background and the cardstock is still available at the store, I just can't remember the manufacturer.  ECHO PARK or American Crafts, I think :)

Chipboard stickers

I got to create all weekend and I made over 40 cards.  I will be showing you a few in the next few days.  Some are made with materials no longer available, but I needed to use them up.

The paper above is a discontinued one, but the "stamp" is a new one from Graphic 45. The chipboard stickers are also still available on a sheet of Crate Paper stickers.

Be My Valentine

Here is a project that I did for my hubby for Valentine's day.  He loves Junior Mints, so I bought the biggest box I could and then just decorated the outside using some older paper lines and a chipboard elephant.

I used the Spellbinders Scalloped Heart and regular Heart dies for the attached card.

I hope everyone has a lovely Valentine's Day.

Jillibean Soup Winter Tortellini and Spinach Soup

Materials:
     Paper: Jillibean Soup Winter Tortellini and Spinach Soup Collection "Stewed Tomatoes"
     Paper Cut cardstock
Stickers: Jillibean Soup
Ribbon: May Arts

Talk a bout a long name for a line of paper!  But cute!!  The plaid is the backside of this wintery print.  I just cut a sliver of the front with one bird on it and finished the card with a little bow.  Simple and quick.

Bo-Bunny

I had some vintage looking Bo-Bunny paper that I was working with this week and I had a series of photos from a trip pit stop that I thought would work perfectly on them.

Materials:
     Paper: Bo-Bunny
     Paper Cut Cardstock
Jillibean Soup Die cuts
October Afternoon Bingo Card

Since I had a bunch of photos and the paper had some nice character already on it, I just used a die cut border and a bingo card in addition to the parts cut from a New Glarus beer package.
