TGIF Challenges: TGIFC253 - Sketch Challenge - Ornate Garden

March 13, 2020

Boy! What a week. I am so glad there is a sketch challenge this week at TGIF Challenges. I didn’t have it me to create something from scratch it this sketch was just was I needed for a little crafting distraction. How are you feeling? The world is crazy so I’m opting for a bit of normalcy for the minute. Stay safe friends.

My card features new July catalog goodies (The Ornate Garden bundle) that will be available for early purchase in April. You can see more about this bright and cheery suite below. Crafting distraction.

Graduation Cap Shaker Card - Charlet Mallett, Stampin’ Up!

Creating Kindness Blog Hop - Shaker cards - Witty-cisms

March 5, 2020

Hello friends! Happy March. The Creating Kindness team is hopping again. This month our theme is Shaker Cards.

It’s a bit early to be creating Graduation cards but I just couldn't resist making a shaker card using the graduation cap from the Witty-cisms stamp set.

I am loving how the graduation caps fly through the air on this shaker card. I added small beads for a nice shaker sound and to help push those caps around.

Inside the shaker window I’ve created a sky background using Seaside Spray ink sponged on paper and then used Shimmery White embossing paste and the cloud mask to add a few shimmery clouds in the sky. Fun stuff!

Every month we invite someone to stamp with us. Our guest this month is Emma Goddard! I love everything she makes and she is the kindest person too! ! I can’t wait to see what she has created along with all of my other friends. The full link up can be found below. Thanks for stopping by.
