Hello. Today I'm back with more cards featuring From the Heart Stamps (also known as Designed 2 Delight).
On each of these, I was able to use up the extras from Stampin' Up paper pumpkin kits - again, using what I've got. So on these cards, I have doilies, sequins, die cuts, and sentiment stamps from SU.
I'm also rediscovering all my designer papers. I love handmade backgrounds, but there is so much gorgeous paper out there and I have a closet full!
I watched a tutorial on how to shade the jar using Copics - I think I did ok.
So that's it for today. I've been enjoying looking through all my digi stamps and using my stash. I feel like it's a challenge and an adventure!
Thanks for stopping by and taking a look.
My cards meet the following challenges: Crafting Happiness: Anything Goes with Optional Flowers, Cupcake Inspirations: Mother's Day, A Gem of a Challenge: Anything Goes, and Creative Inspiration: Anything Goes.
Hello and happy Tuesday. It's warming up nicely where I'm at and everything is in bloom (read: I've got major allergies going on!).
Anyway, today I would like to share a couple of cards using Bugaboo images (no longer in business):
I have some older cards that I'm not overly fond of, but the backgrounds are good and I didn't want to just toss them. So I'm making "new" cards using the backgrounds.
I really do wonder sometimes "what the heck was I thinking??" when looking at some of my creations. But I do like these two better than the originals. Again, both feature a Bugaboo image - I just love Bugaboo and miss them dearly.
Thank you for taking a look and have a great week!
These meet the following challenges: Jan's Digi Stamps: Anything Goes, Use Your Suff: Layers, We Love Stamping: Anything Goes w/option of Animal, and A Gem of a Challenges: Anything Goes.
Hello and happy Friday! Another week down and hopefully a relaxing weekend to come.
Today I'm sharing a couple of cards featuring From the Heart Stamps (aka Designed 2 Delight). The artist is no longer with us, but I always loved her talent and recently printed a few of her images that I haven't yet used.
This one features Bullfrogs and Butterflies. I was unsure of the direction of this but in the end, I think it worked out ok. Ever have an idea that just goes off the rails? Well, this is that card.
I also made a card for my Mom - a just because I love her type of card. She really is my biggest fan. Anyway, the butterfly is from a FTH set, as an extra to the main image. I used up a few extras from past Stampin' Up Paper Pumpkin kits - again, trying to use what I've got. I'm also going through a few paper packs that have been stored for years in an effort to renew my creativity.
That's all from me for now. Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful weekend.
This meets the following challenges: Creative Fingers: Anything Goes, Alphabet Challenge: XOXO, Crafty Animals: Anything with a Critter, and Die Cut Divas: Anything with a Die Cut (both cards).
Hello! I can't believe it's already March! Well, I'm still on a mission to create with what I've got, so today I'm sharing cards made with a stamp set that I purchased long ago and never touched.
I'm using Stampin' Up's Nature Walk set for all three, with different styles.
I went with a museum/antique sort of feel on this one. The layout is My Favorite Things MFTWSC 470.
And finally, my favorite of the three. It's been super cold here and I can't wait to get out in my garden. We have a lot of honey bees that we support and I can't wait for their return.
Thank you taking a look at my latest post. I appreciate your visit!
My cards meet the following challenges: A Perfect Time to Craft: Always Anything Goes, Classic Design Challenge: Anything Goes, Crafts Galore Encore: Anything Goes, and Digi Choosday: Anything Goes.
