Be Mine-Design Space





Had a rough week but wanted to share this creation I did a few weeks ago in design space. I plan on making this card front into a shaker card for my son on Valentine's Day. All images used are from Cricut Access. If you are interested here is the project in Design Space.

Once I finish the project I will come back and share.

Using up Scraps-Part 3

 Another great use for those scraps of patterned paper we all hoard is paper piecing. In these two cards  I stamped by image on the paper using Momento Tuxedo Black Ink.  I then fussy cut out the images to add them to my cards. For the Balloons I stamped each balloon on the background I created with Distress Oxide inks in Peacock Feathers and Broken China.  I then placed the pieces I had cut from patterned paper on the top of the balloons to give them some interest.  The sentiment and heart are from stamps from Simon Says Stamp while the balloons are From Verve. 

I also give you peek at another card I did with the shirts all pieced from paper for this one.

If you want more information feel free to watch the video below or go to my YouTube channel to check it out.

I am entering the balloon card above into the Creative Inspirations: January Challenge-Anything Goes. You can check out the challenges here.

Using Up Scraps Part 2

This week I wanted to focus again on using up those scraps of paper you have in those bins, files, etc.  Here is another couple of cards that use patterned paper to build a card sketch you can use over and over.

The sentiment from the starburst cards is by Papertrey Ink using Costal Cabana Ink by Stampin' Up!  The card bases and the patterned paper used on all cards is by Recollections.



I am submitting the Patterned Paper Panel card with the Happy Birthday Sentiment to the Just Us Girls Challenge:#469 Leftovers.

Below is the video of the making of these cards or you can see it over on my YouTube Channel.

So I don't know about you but I get inspiration from everywhere. A lot of times when inspiration strikes I like to see if I can make the idea I have in my head work for a card or papercraft. Today I worked on a thank you card that would be great for girlfriends maybe paired with a nail polish or emory board. If you are a Cricut fan and would like to grab the link head on over to my Facebook Page.
