Dylusions Spray Inks

More Delusions spray inks.  This time mist of color along one side and a simple die cut over it. Finish with a simple sentiment.

Dylusions Spray Ink Class cards

More backgrounds using the Dylusions Spray inks and my Die-namics dies for the moon and stars.  I made these for a class.

Dylusions Spray Inks and a few dies

Another stamped sentiment using the Taylored Expressions Shade Tree Sentiments stamp set.  I also used a Memory Box stencil (stars) and the Die-namics Sun, Moon and Stars die set.  Delusions Spray Inks and my Tim Holtz Distress inks are swiped across the middle of the card.  The shiny silver paper is called Celestial.  To finish it off I used some dots of Glossy Accents around the stars.

Glittery Snowflake

Snow, snow, snow......are we sick of it yet?  I am.  But this holographic paper is so cool as a snowflake, I just could not resist making more snowflakes!

Stickles

Remember those cards from that Christmas line I was talking about a few weeks ago?  Well, here is another card that I loved from that sheet.  I covered the words in the left corner with some sticker letters. I think it might have said "So Loved"....I like Santa Season better :)

Doodlebug

Maybe you have noticed that I like the Doodlebug line....especially the Christmas line. Why am I doing Christmas cards?  Because, as I mentioned maybe a week or so ago, I made 46 cards one weekend using up tons of stickers, papers, die cuts and other bits that I have purchased over the last few years.  I am now ahead of the game for the 2015 Christmas season.  Plus, I have used up a bunch of cardstock pieces.....I actually need to buy more.....don't tell the hubby :)

Doodlebug Stickers

More leftovers.  The last piece of this poinsettia paper that I used on a project from almost 4 years ago.....yes, I do hold on to things for a long long time :).  I added some little bitty cards from the Doodlebug sheets....which were new for the 2014 Christmas season....and then some letters I cut with one of my die cut alphabet sets.

Poinsettia from Memory Box

I picked up this poinsettia die from Memory Box after Christmas.  It was a smaller version and I thought it would be a really cute addition to some Christmas cards.  I was right :)  Those little cards on the Doodlebug lines papers are a fun addition to my card collection.  I bought the large sheets and the mini pads so I have twice as many little cards to use.  The snowman inside is one of the little bitty ones from the 6x6 pads....love them!!

Memory Box Deer Trio

Another Christmas card from my collection I made last week.  I love using up leftover pieces of papers and die cuts.  This tree and the deer were both leftovers from a previous project.

Paper Smooches Drink die

More adorable Doodlebug papers and then my favorite drinks die from Paper Smooches. Change the papers to a birthday theme or stripes or whatever and you have a birthday card!

Skis and CANDi's

The cards from this paper line are a perfect addition to the front of a card.  I fussy cut out the ski mask and added a few sterling CANDi dots.  You can send this as a winter card, a Christmas card or a birthday card for an avid skier.

Crepe Ribbon and Doodlebugs

Here is a Doodlebug paper using the purple/blue line.  How cute is that bird??  This would work as a winter card instead of Christmas.  A little ribbon and those pretty papers.

More Doodlebugs

Doodlebug papers.....I loved these paper when they came in. They had a red and green version and a purple/blue version.  I loved both. The little cards are cut from another sheet of Doodlebug paper.

Cute Penguin from Impression Obsession

Another October Afternoon paper from that class several years ago. I love to use up papers that are left over from previous projects.  The snowflakes are from Memory Box and the adorable Penguin is from Impression Obsession.

Spellbinders Banner Die

This was fun to create.  I used a piece of acetate for the see through panel and then added some trees using a Spellbinders Banner and Star die.  The paper is from October Afternoon from 3 years ago.....a class I had.

Card Creating...a marathon session

I spent 3 days crafting up north in the cold and snow...so what did I craft? Christmas Cards.  Yes...I am all set for the 2015 Christmas season.  How many cards did I get done? 46.  A lot of the papers I used are papers we still currently have, but by next year they will be gone and/or unavailable. Take the ideas as a launching point for your creations for birthday or other themed cards.

This is one of the Doodlebug papers that came and went many times at the store.  I love the purple stripes and the glittery ornament.

Support Hope die set from My Favorite Things

Think Spring....or Spring break!  Beaches, bikinis, sunshine and cocktails!

Lot's of great dies on this one.  Memory Box, Cottage Cutz, Die-Namics (My Favorite Things) and Spellbinders.

Spring Birds

 Our Make & Take from from today is this sweet bird.  We worked with dies, stamps, twine and ink.  Every Thursday from 11-1pm we have the Make & Take.  Stop by the store some time to check that out.

Taylored Expressions Shade Tree Sentiments

 Cheerful birthday cards are what we need right now.  I used some Taylored Expressions stamps, Spellbinders Circles, Twinery Twine and some beautifully cheerful papers.  My cupcake sticker is from SRM.
