To make this slimline card I used a flower background stamp Dainty Daisies by Whimsy Stamps, inked it up with VersaMark and heat embossed with white embossing powder.  I then applied Distress inks overtop to create the yellow/green background.  The sentiment and butterflies were made using die cuts.

I decided to put the snippets to good use to create my card, goodness knows we all have so many scraps just hanging out, waiting to be used.  The heart was created using my Cricut Joy and I heat embossed the sentiment (Simply Celebrate Hearts, Lawn Fawn) with white embossing powder.

Happy New Year 2023

A new month AND a New Year brings a new challenge at Get Creative Challenges!

Our theme this month is Something New - let your creativity flow with this theme, maybe it's a new year, new stamp that you got for Christmas, the possiblities are endless!

We have moved to a JUST FOR FUN challenge and I hope you will continue to play along so you have a chance to proudly display our Winners Badge or Top 3 Badge.

I thought I would bring in the new year with a Happy New Year card.  I used the stamp set and die cuts, Prosecco-Ho-Ho by Avery Elle to create my card.  I embossed the images on black and gold cardstock and on the gold bottle, I stamped a second black image just to use the label.  Added a bow and we're good to go!

I put together patterned papers that were in my stash and the tags were created using Nested Round Tags by Maker's Movement. The sentiment is from the Says it all again set by Clearly Besotted.

Spooky Tree

A new month brings a new challenge at Get Creative Challenges!

Our theme this month is Black and Purple.  Show us your creativity using only those two colors!  You will have until October 31st to add your creation!

I started with using Multi Media Paper and Distress Oxide Inks (Black Soot, Shaded Lilac and Villainous Potion) to create the background. After that was done I spritzed with water and when it was dry I used Sheer Simmer spray in Gold.

The stamp set I used is from Darkroom Door called Twisted Tree. I stamped the images in VersaMark with black embossing powder.  To finish it off I added some sequins.

Happy Fall

A new month brings a new challenge at Get Creative Challenges!

Our theme this month is FALL/AUTUMN and you will have until September 30th to link up your creation!

For my card I used Heidi from Digi Doodle Studios.  Autumn is by far my favorite season, I love the crisp sweater weather and all the changing colors.  

I colored Heidi with Copic markers and added Crackle Accents to the leaves for a bit of dimension.  To finish it off I added a button and foliage die-cuts next to the sentiment, also from Digi Doodle Studios.

Back to School

A new month brings a new challenge at Get Creative Challenges and I'm excited to announce that I have become the newest member of their design team!

Our theme this month is Back to School so put on your thinking caps and show us your back to school creativity!

I pulled out a couple of digi images that I have had since 2011 and have never used, Lollipop School Girl Lacie and Lollipop School Boy Ezra by Lori Boyd Designs.  I couldn't find Lori's designs anywhere so I can only assume she has closed up shop.

I colored the images with Copic markers then scoured my stash for some school-related papers and went to work putting them all together.
