Instagram Embossing Folder Hop

This month is partial embossing.

I went to my friend Pinterest, found a sketch that would work well with partial embossing, and off to create.

The background and the dome both have partial embossing.  Looking at this card, it really is very basic.  That said, I'm okay with it.

Memory Box Day

It's still Christmas in July for my Memory Box day.  For some added fun, I made an edge to edge shaker card.

I used the following products for this card; Cranberry Card Stock, Pinpoint Flower Plate, Evergreen Holly Bundle Dies, and Sending Joy Timeless Script.  Since these dies come in their own envelope for storing, I used one of the die packaging for the shaker cover.

I see I missed the i tittle - whoops.  I'll have to fix that before I mail off this card.

That's it for my July cards~See you next month.

CutCardStock Day

I am picking up on an arch trend here in social media world.  Well, I have the dies, I can join in too!

I started with my standard, #130 Heavy White card stock for the card base.  The sturdiness! - yes please!  I had a general layout in mind, along with the dies I wanted to use, so off to choose my colors; Bright Gold Foil, Light Yellow, Sand Castle, Light Teal, and lastly, Fairway Green.

Yep, kinda happy with this end result!

See you next month~

Addicted to CAS Challenge #313 - Trees

I popped over to Pinterest for some inspiration.  Found it!

I was so attracted to the soft background trees and then the pop of the wonderful tree silhouette. [Memory Box Gathered Tree Trunks]. Putting it on a mini slimline - yep, I'm all about this card!

Your turn!  

Come on over to Addicted to CAS Challenge #313 and show us how you use trees on your card!

Just Us Girls Challenge #833 - Stencil Week

Gotta love an anything goes stencil challenge!

I needed an 80th birthday card so I went all out on this one~

I pulled out my Better Press machine and a set from Altenew; Blossoming Bouquet Bundle. This comes with everything; press plate, stencil, embossing folder, and die.  One stop shop!

While I think "stencil" coloring is kinda cheating, you can't beat the beautiful end results!  I'm thinking the recipient will be happy with her card.

Your turn.  Come on over to JUGS #833 and show us your stenciled card.  The possibilities are endless when its anything goes~

Memory Box Day

It's another Memory Box day for me, and we are still sharing Christmas in July cards.

This little cutie was easy to glue together. I want to say that since I have struggled with getting a finished image using die cut images from other companies. So it's just a FYI statement.  Anyway, this is Benson Mouse.  He completely made me smile.  The trees are from Evergreen Tree Stand.

The sentiment is Merry Christmas Timeless Script cut out of the Cherry Red Card Stock.

I hope you enjoyed Benson in the woods~

Instagram July ATC Hop

It's my favorite hop time!

That being said, I didn't feel like making a set of ATCs like I normally do.  So, I just made 1.  I can either make a card with this, or include it in a birthday card as a small gift.  We shall see what I end up doing.  In the meantime, here it is;

I, again, followed my "steps" for creating this fun ATC.  The Better Press flowers was sitting on my desk, so I based the ATC off of that.  Did you catch my mistake?

Yep, I put the flower on the upside down ATC.  Whoops. HaHa.  Fortunately with this mixed media type of project hopefully the recipient won't notice.  Sheesh.

Ready for some more miniature art?  You can click HERE for the hop list.  I'm off to check it out myself..
