2026: TapeRunner + Love From Lizi Peacock Note Card [Card #260]

Hello again, sweet friends! 
I'm back to share another quick card (and video) that I created using the Love From Lizi Secret Garden kit, which is part of her 10th anniversary celebration kitπŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰ 
This card was easy to make because everything in this kit matches! I love the metallic paper behind the patterned paper! I love that the patterned paper matches the gold dots perfectly! I love the peacock ephemera! What a fun design! 
This really was a SIMPLE card to make and you can see how I made it in my IG video HERE!

That's it for me today.

2026: Happy Birthday, Michelle- Pink & Main!

Hello, sweet friends! We are celebrating Michelle from Pink & Main today- it's her birthday!!!
I wanted to make her a special birthday card so I pulled out loads of Pink & Main goodies (supply list below) and my pink inks (her favorite color!)!!! 
I was worried about coloring so many different critters... but I love how each kitty turned out! And that cute little mouse is adorable too! The only issue... I literally just noticed that the kitty's shirt and the present are not TEAL in the photos! Somehow the photo editing has made them GRAY! OY🀦🏼‍♀️ I've already sent this card so I can't retake the photos. 

That's it for me today. Be sure to stop by the P&M FB page or blog to leave Michelle some birthday love❤️

2026: TapeRunner + Love From Lizi Masculine Shaker Card [Card #251]

Hello again, sweet friends! 
I'm back to share another quick card (and video) that I created using the Love From Lizi Secret Garden kit, which is part of her 10th anniversary celebration kitπŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰ 
 
So... this card was SUPER easy to make! I even recorded the process so you could see what I did... well, I thought I was recording! My goal was to split the recording up into small sections because uploading large videos take forever. I would "start" and then "stop" every 5 mins. Sounds like a good plan... well.... halfway through [which I didn't know] my "starts" became my "stops" and the "stops" were my "starts", which means that I started to record the OFF times of creating--I was cleaning up, moving things around, etc. πŸ˜‚ Talk about silly! 

So HERE is a quick, funny video I made using what I had from this design! 

Here are the steps to create this card: 
  1. Cut cardbase to size and die cut a shape in the center (I used a hexagon shape)
  2. Add TR adhesive to the back of the patterned paper around the shape; add transparency piece 
  3. Use LFL Pin Stripe Peel Off stickers to outline the shape design
  4. Die cut the sentiment and add ink to match patterned paper/colors
  5. Ink blend a white cardstock piece to place behind the shape design; attach this ink blended paper to the cardbase using TR adhesive 
  6. Add foam tape to the back of the patterned paper (around all four edges and around the shape design)
  7. Add a few spoonfuls of LFL Sequins Mix on top of the ink blended paper 
  8. Remove foam tape backing and attach patterned paper on top of cardbase (sequins mix) -- this is kind of difficult so take your time! 
  9. Add ribbon to sentiment and attach to card using foam tape 
This really was a SIMPLE card to make... it's the video I struggled with πŸ˜‚

That's it for me today.

I created a video HERE (or check out the link below) and actually did some magic to create that bow charm! Just kidding- Trav saw the edited version of this video and said I had done magic! LOL 🀣
I used my TapeRunner adhesive to attach the cardbase and ephemera. This card came together QUICKLY... well, not as quick as the video because I sped that up but super quick!

2026: Holiday Card with TapeRunner [Card #248-249]

Hello again, sweet friends! 
I started working on my holiday cards the other day... well I made TWO holiday cards using this design because the background made a twofer [just reversed]πŸ˜‚

I love using my TapeRunner adhesives on my cardbases (you might know that info based on all my posts when I talk about it... and from THIS post)! I usually add TR adhesive to the top, bottom, and both sides to adhere my cardstock/patterned papers/panels. However, for a diagonal background I add just a bit extra in the center and down the diagonal of each piece of paper!
TIP: For a diagonal background I add EXTRA adhesive down the diagonal on both pieces of paper/panels. This helps keep the bond strong to the cardbase. 
I love how this card turned out- it's modern and has fun colors! Let's see if I can make 100+ more holiday cards before November!!! I'll keep you postedπŸ™ƒ **NOTE: I don't use the same card design twice unless it creates a twofer. So I have at least 100 MORE holiday card designs to make! YIKES! I better get started!! 


That's it for me today.

2026: Love From Lizi Secret Garden [Card #245]

Hello, friends! 
I am thrilled to join in the celebration with Love From Lizi and her 10th anniversaryπŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰
 
I received the Secret Garden kit, which has SOOOOOOOOOOO many charms, gems, stickers, papers, ribbons, and MORE! 
I decided to create a quick start-to-finish video on IG {HERE} sharing my first card using this kit. I mixed several patterned papers and a few ribbons together to make the background. I also die cut a sentiment and added a charm. TIP: after a #happyaccident I pulled a thread from the burlap to create a small bow to go behind the charm! I was actually pretty upset that my card almost got ruined but then I realized I could take apart the burlap threads and the idea hit me! I love it!   

I used my TapeRunner adhesive to attach the papers AND the ribbon! YES--- TapeRunner adhesive is STRONG enough to hold the ribbons down! **Don't forget to SAVE 10% using code SAVANNAH10 at TapeRunner.com!!!

2026: TapeRunner for the WIN- multiple cardbases

Hello again, sweet friends! 
This is the FIRST project I created after I started to feel better:) Praise the Lord I'm feeling somewhat better πŸ™ŒπŸ»
 
I decided it was time to create LOADS of birthday card bases for future cards! I used up an entire TapeRunner mini adhesive and some of my pink adhesive just to make these cardbases. LOL! 
Even though I know the TR adhesive is STRONG and I don't need to use a lot... I still added adhesive to the top, bottom, both sides, and a small amount in the center. This is how I add my cardbases to ALL of my cards! 
I love that I have a rainbow of cardbases to pick from for my next birthday design! I also love that I have 22 cards started! This will be VERY helpful as I get back into the swing of things:)   

That's it for me today.

Hello again, sweet friends! 
I'm excited to share this REALLY quick video/reel sharing how I made this fall birthday card using TapeRunner adhesive and Birch Press Design stamps/dies! 
When I saw the Memory Box cardstock colors, I knew I wanted to make a fall rainbow of leaves! 
 
The Birch Press Design Fall Leaves die set comes with about five different leaf designs--- so technically you could make each leaf different or you could make five different leaf rainbows! How fun!
I hope you are inspired by this fall rainbow birthday card- let me know if you make one or make something inspired by my creation! I'd love to stop by and check it out!!!

2026: TapeRunner For The Win

Hello, friends! 

***If you use tape adhesive and haven't shopped at TapeRunner.com... GET OVER THERE NOW! 
 
I just put in a LARGE order for MORE TapeRunner adhesive because it's my FAVORITE:) Easy to use, long lasting, and great quality! 
 
I use my TR adhesives on ALL of my cardbases since I always add a panel to my base. I also use it for all flat services like layered panels or CAS or one layer card designs. I've also used TR adhesives on embossed cardstock and glossy papers. I have used it for patterned papers and for transparency papers. I looooooooooove my TR adhesives πŸ˜

I love saving money πŸ€‘ so be sure to use code SAVANNAH10 for 10% off your purchase! 

Today I'm sharing a few cards that I created using different TapeRunner adhesives... although the adhesives are all the same quality and design... just different colored containers:) 
I know I've said it before, but I looooooove matching my TR adhesives to my project:) 
I might not be part of the HOA board anymore... but I'm still part of the Welcoming Committee:) We've had MORE new neighbors to welcome! 
This card was inspired by the card above- only this time I used only blue inks:)  

That's it for me today.

2026: Does It Surprise You...

Hello, friends! 
Does it surprise you... that I had to make ANOTHER sypmathy card!? 😭
 
My friend lost her mom about a month ago. I knew her mom's FAVORITE color was purple, so I pulled out my purple papers, an old rose die, and my FAVORITE sympathy stamp set to create a simple card to express my condolences (see supply list below). 

I've said it before, and I'll say it again- sympathy cards are usually kept for years by loved ones. I use TapeRunner adhesive to help make my card designs last for a long time! I want this card to bring comfort and peace as they remember their loved ones. 
That's it for me today.

Sympathy Card supplies: 
OLD supplies from my stash- purple paper and rose background die... I'm not even sure I know where I got them or who made them!

2026: Easy Holiday Card + 2 TIPS using TapeRunner Adhesive [Card #192-197]

Hello, sweet friends! I've started on my holiday cards!!! 
I've shared a IG reel/tutorial HERE on how to make this EASY holiday card using TapeRunner adhesive. 
 
Here are step-by-step instructions [plus 2 TIPS] on how to make these cards, and possibly make multiples because they are sooooooooo easy!!!! 
  • Gather your supplies including TapeRunner adhesive
  • Create card front panel using embossing folder
  • Stamp image onto cardstock
    • TIP#1: Use a bone folder to burnish some of the embossed image where the stamped sentiment will be. This makes the cardstock smoother and  you don't lose the embossed image! 
  • Emboss sentiment
  • Ink edges of embossed image (I used two dark colors for extra dimension)
  • Adhere cardstock to cardbase using TapeRunner adhesiv
    •  TIP#2: Apply TapeRunner adhesiv to BOTH the cardbase and cardstock for a stronger bond! The embossed cardstock sometimes has a hard time adhering to flat paper- doubling the adhesive helps! 
  • Finish card using twine, gems, or other embellishments

EASY! 

And because this was soooooooooo EASY I created a few extra holiday cards in different colors! This is a great card to mass produce.
 
I wish you could see how pretty each edge is in the photo- the light makes it too bright to see :(

2026: A Year in the Making-- Thanks So Mush [Card #165]

Hey hey, everyone!  
This card has been almost a year in the making… let me explainπŸ‘‡πŸ»

***Kind of a fun, long story but stay until the end!!!! It will all make sense πŸ™ƒ

Last year on July 14th I had a fight with a rock and lost, tearing several ligaments (again) in my left ankle and bruised several ribs (as well as other injuries)πŸ€• Trav’s co-worker, John, made me a get well card with mushrooms on it [you can see it on my IG stories]. I wanted to tell him thanks for the card, well wishes, and help at work…

But I couldn’t do much for a long time… and I kept getting sick or injured… and I had other projects that were due…

Then the opportunity to make a mushroom card inspired by John’s mushroom card came up last month when Pink and Main had their monthly challenge as nature- this card fit perfectly!!!!! But I missed the deadline because….

I started having gut issues 😡‍πŸ’« This meant that I needed urgent tests and doc appts… the first two days I dealt with everything alone while Trav worked 12 hour shifts… but thankfully John switched a few work dates with Trav so he could attend my bigger tests/procedure dates.

So NOW I definitely needed to make this card!

And that brings us to today—- I’m late for the P&M monthly challenge… I’m late in giving John a card… and I’m still sick πŸ€ͺ
Anyhoo…. I love how this card turned out!!!! Fussy cutting, highlight coloring, texture paste, layers… I loooooove it! And I actually made another one similar to this using scraps because I couldn’t throw the background that was messed up outπŸ™ƒ Be on the lookout for that card soon!!!!

That's it for me today.
