My cards using the Groovy Summer collection was up on the Echo Park page the other day.
This was such a fun collection to work with – brought back memories of Friday night roller skating. The colors and the elements are so groovy 😉 The collection is on sale right now too.
There are FREE instructions on how to create all three of these up on the Echo Park Website
I was up on the Echo Park page the other day with this fun Exploding Box birthday card.
I used the They Say It’s Your Birthday collection – the fun stickers made this easy!
What is really fun is that this will fit in a regular A2 envelope for easy mailing. There are FREE instructions on how to make this up on the Echo Park Website and you can find them HERE
It was fun creating it and I hope you give it a try!
The new Inspired By challenge is up. I was immediately drawn to the colors and I love a haphazard sketch so I was loosely inspired by it too. The new Save the Date collection from Echo Park is absolutely gorgeous and it worked perfectly for the color palette. The background woodgrain paper is from Stampin Up!
I started by fussy cutting the flowers from one of the pattern papers. I then layered the background papers until I was happy with the loo. Once the flowers were down (the middle on is on foam squares. I tucked the sentiments here and there simulating the sketch. The white hearts were the negative image from a heart border that I have had just waiting for the right project and this was it. The XOXO is from Lawn Fawn and then to finish it off I added some Enamel Dots.
Here’s this week’s inspiration photo
I am up on the Coffee Loving Papercrafters blog today. It is a new month so there’s a new theme up and this month it is Sunshine!
For my card I reached for the You Are My Sunshine collection from Echo Park which is fitting don’t you think?
The mug is a die from Honey Bee Stamps. I stencilled the sun on it using a stencil from Echo Park. I then added the shine sticker and a heart sticker and of course some staples. I mounted the mug on foam squares and added a little white heart for steam.
I would love to see your sunshine themed coffee cards. Remember… iced coffee/ iced tea counts…
The new Inspired By Challenge is up.I really love the colors in this week’s inspiration and had planned on doing something with them but then I remembered I had the Mom’s Kitchen collection from Echo Park just waiting to be used so I dug it out and went along with the theme.
I embossed the mint cardstock with an embossing folder from Unity. The recipe card, is just that, a recipe card – Echo Park has some fun ones! I just cut it down and used a notebook punch to add some detail.
I adhered the stickers to some scrap paper then fussy cut them out and mounted them on foam squares. The thanks die is from CTMH and I love the gingham washi tape in the Mom’s Kitchen collection so I added a bit of it too.
check out this week’s inspiration and be sure to play along
I had a layout up on Echo Park Paper the other day and I had so much fun creating it
The Easter Basket collection was perfect for documenting these cute pictures don’t you think?
Most of the stickers I adhered to scrap paper and fussy cut out so I could mount on foam squares.
I also fussy cut some eggs from the patterned paper
There’s free instructions for this up on the Echo Park Paper website. Check them out here
The new Inspired By Challenge is up and I bet you can tell how I was inspired.
I actually thought I had a couple of frog stamps but in one of my purges I must have gotten rid of them so I found this fun set of frogs and decided they would be perfect.
The collection comes with both coloured in and line drawing Clip Art. I was in a hurry and decided the coloured version was perfect. I printed, cut out and mounted on foam squares. The paper is from Echo Park and the die and sentiment are from Honey Bee Stamps. I also mounted the sentiment of foam squares.
Now here is the collection of the cute frogs
Now come on over and play along at Inspired By!
I had fun creating some themed gift baskets for Mother’s Day. For this one I used the new Lemonade collection from Echo Park for my You’re the Zest basket. Not only was the theme perfect but the colors matched the contents of the basket very well!
I layered some paper, added the Die and then created some tags out of scraps. I adhered the lemon stickers to some scrap paper then cut out and mounted on foam squares. The Sentiment is from Sunny Studio Stamps.
And here is the basket, would love to know what you think?
My cards were up on the Echo Park page the other day. I used the new Mouse & Me collection.
If you are a Mickey Mouse fan (and who isn’t?!) then this collection is a must have! There are so many ways that you could use it.
I had fun creating a fold out pop up card for one of them and there are FREE instructions for all three cards up on the Echo Park website.

The new Inspired By Challenge is up and I was inspired by the theme and the colors to create my card. I bet you wouldn’t guess that I used a very Easter themed collection for this? It is the Easter Basket collection from Echo Park, love when paper packs are versatile.
The Cake stamp and die is from CTMH one and I paired it with a notebook stamp and die from Stampin Up. I paper pieced the cake and mounted it on foam squares. I then topped it with the birthday die from Echo Park. This was one of those 11th hour type of cards and luckily for me, it all went together well.
Now check out this week’s Inspired By Challenge, I hope you play along!
