Today I am sharing a card that could be used for someone who just needs a hug. Wouldn’t you love to receive a little happy mail, when you’re feeling down?
I used the Wee Little Love Courier from Unity and paired it with my Sweet Valentine Wishes collection available in my ETSY shop.
I just love this cute little guy, what about you? If so, be sure to grab him as it is on sale right now.
I am up on the Coffee Loving Papercrafters blog today and since it is a new month there’s a new theme challenge happening. This month the theme is Sweater. I knew thisGretchen Girl Stamp would work perfectly for this challenge and I have used a sentiment from Warm & Cozy Season
I used a sweater embossing folder to emboss the main card base, though it is a little hard to tell.
Check out the stamps and paper here (click on images)
Now come on over to the Coffee Loving Papercrafters blog and play along
When I first saw these cuties in the newest Whit Kit – Hello Warm Fuzzies by Unity I couldn’t wait to play with them. They are just so cute! I paired them with this fun paper set called Studio Light Hello Winter Friendz Paper Pad. Of course I was inspired by the snowmen once again from Inspired By.
I basically used only 3 of the pattern papers to create these cards. For the first one I cut some scraps of the white cardstock and layered to look like snow and added some stitching. The houses were fussy cut and the snowman is mounted on foam squares. The die on all 3 is from CTMH
I then used a couple of the paper pieces for my second card, added some snowflakes, stitching and a bow and it was done.
Finally with the small pieces that were left I created the final card using one of the penguins from the set. Always some stitching, snowflakes and image on foam squares.
This cute set is available on its own or as a bundle in the Whit Kit. Of course it is on sale right now so be sure to grab it!
Also playing along with some challenges
A new month means new releases over at Unity and I am so in love with this month’s KOM! So many fun images so stay tuned I will be sharing lots this month! First up, this cutie, which I thought was fitting for the start of a new year. We have turned the page on last year, and starting all fresh, I for one am looking forward to this year and what things I can accomplish!
I have used the You are My Sunshine collection from Echo Park. I love the bright happy colors and patterns in this collection. I imagined her sitting in a garden full of flowers on a sunny spring day.
I coloured her with copics, pieced together some papers, stitched added a ribbon and voila, all done.
Curious, are you a reader? What books do you like to read?
Now go grab this cute set Once the Story Opens, while it is on sale! {Click on image for direct link}
Of course be sure to check out Echo Park’s newest collection too!
Happy New Year!
It’s Thursday so that means another Inspired By Challenge. But I was also asked to be the Guest Designer on JUGS this month and I am pretty excited about that. This week I decided to combine the challenges. I was inspired by the snowmen and the sketch on Inspired By and on JUGS we were to use a cover plate die. I dug through my die collection and found a couple of neglected stitching frame dies from Stamplorations and CTMH and they were perfect. I also used the Hello die from I think MFT.
I paired it with the cute Clip Art snowman which is part of a cute set. Check it out HERE
Check out the snowmen clipart:
Now here is the Inspired By Inspiration:
And be sure to hop on over to JUGS and check out what the others have done and of course play along!
I have another card for the Coffee Loving Papercrafters Blog again today and it is your last chance to link up to the Lattes & Layers Challenge
For my card I have another cute Clip Art design, don’t you just love him? I paired it with some older Simple Stories papers
I used up some of my scraps, topped it with a snowflake border die from Poppy Stamps and some snowflakes punched out of glitter paper before mounting the image on foam squares. The sentiment die is from Stamplorations. I did fussy cut the mug and add it to the snowman’s hand.
Check out this cute collection of Clip Art Snowmen.
Now head on over to the Coffee Loving Papercrafters blog as today is the last day for the Sparkle challenge
I am up on the Coffee Loving Papercrafters Blog with yet another card for the Lattes & Layers challenge. Tomorrow is the last day to link up for your chance at being a guest designer. I used this fun clip art which is part of a great collection. For the background, I used a bunch of scraps and added a couple of snowflakes for good luck 😉
It is hard to tell but I added some glitter to the marshmallows.
Check out the Clip Art collection as there are quite a few fun designs!
I am playing along with the Inspired By Challenge again using the colors and the theme. I thought the Beer Me stamp from Unity would work well for this too (It’s probably how my hubby will be celebrating New Years 😉) And yes the stamp set is on sale!
I paired it with some paper from Stampin’ Up and the dies are from PTI and MFT I believe. I mounted the image on foam squares and added some glitter gel to make it look more like foam on the top.
Now to grab this fun image!
and of course come play along at Inspired By!
I am up on the Coffee Loving Papercrafters Blog today with a fun winter card using an image from Angie Blom Designs. I love digis as you can size them any size. I paired her with some pattern paper from Simple Stories. This card went together rather quickly. After coloring the image I mounted it on foam squares for dimension. The sentiment stamp is from CTMH and the die is from Honey Bee Stamps.
I did add a touch of sparkle, to remind you to link up your creation for this month’s Lattes & Layers challenge – the theme is sparkle
When I saw this Unity stamp, Party Pup Birthday, I knew it would work well with the Party Animal collection from Echo Park. I also added some stars using an old MFT die. Love the banner with this image, it is perfect don’t you think?
I also paired it with some old CTMH papers and the Thinking Out Loud stamp set
Both of these stamp sets are on sale right now, so don’t miss out!
