2026: Another Butterfly Card [Card #103]

Hello again, sweet friends! 
I have ANOTHER card for the Simon Says IG Challenge (things with wings)--- this time I went with a large foiled butterfly design! 
I really wanted the have just the P&M Sketched Butterfly Foilable Panel as the background (because look at it!!!! It's soooooooooo beautiful by itself!)... so I colored just a strip of light blue behind the large foiled and colored butterfly... but it didn't look right. So I went with a few strips of cardstock/washi tape and fussy cut the butterfly... added some confetti... and WOW! This is a beautiful card!!! 
That's it for me today.

2026: Things With Wings Challenge Card- HELLO [Card101]

Hello again, sweet friends! 
I had a bit of free time (GASP!!!) and decided to play in the studio yesterday! 

I decided to pull out a few supplies: quilted patterned papers (I think it looks like the flying geese pattern but I could be wrong!), sewing themed dies, and butterflies. With all of these mixed and matched goodies, I created this fun friendship card.
It's perfect for the Simon Says Stamp IG Challenge! I hope one day to join in the fun with their Wednesday challenge too:) 

That's it for me today.

2026: Pink & Main Foilable Panels + Alcohol Inks [card #074]

Hello again, sweet friends! 
This card was SOOOOOOOOOOOOO easy to make especially when using the Pink & Main Foilable Panels and Cheerfoil

Here's how I made it: 
  1. Foil the P&M Raindrops Foiloable Panels with White Cheerfoil
  2. Use alcohol inks to create "rainbow" or colored background
  3. After inks dry a bit (maybe 5 mins), wipe background with towel to reveal white rain drops
  4. Finish card with sentiment and colored image

EASY! That's what I like:)  

That's it for me today.

*click HERE for Day 1's hop list- there's LOADS of inspiration shared!!! 
*Don't forget to check out the Beautiful Moments gallery for even MORE inspiration!!!  

Since it's DAY 2 of the blog hops, I thought I would share 2️⃣ creations using some NEW Beautiful Moments goodies.
 
First up is one of my FAVORITE cards-- I call this "Irish Bow💚". I had this idea for a striped background and heart die cut for a Valentine's Day card... but I never got the chance to make it. Once I saw the NEW Printmaking Clovers stamp set and the Double Loop Bow die set, I *knew* I had to change the theme and colors of this card idea and go GREEN
I just loooooooooooove these hues of green with that big green bow and gold accents- LOVE LOVE LOVE
My next card is another FAVORITE card design from this collection! This Pinwheel Party background stamp is very graphic and fun, and I wanted to do something different. My goal was a rainbow design... but not like rainbow inked background or papers... I was thinking a darker background, white embossed image, and rainbow gems. I added a sentiment from the Inspirational Quotes stamp set to finish this card design- it's PERFECT!!!!

I think I nailed my design- WOWZA! I love it! Truth be told- I loooooooooooove all of my projects from this release! I'll be sharing MORE soon so stop back by to check them out🙃

And now--- it's time to go hopping! Well... this is actually the LAST stop of the hop:)

2025: P&M Advent Creation- Thinking of You [card #337]

Hello again, sweet friends! 
I am enjoying opening the Pink & Main Advent Calendar goodies each day--- it's my first time ordering an advent calendar! I have posted a daily video/reel (very short!!!!! No longer than 25 seconds!!) on my IG page. I'd love for you to stop by and say HI! 

The story behind this card is a "challenge"- I am mentoring (well... I'm trying) a newly engaged young woman/friend. She came over on Friday last week, and we ended up crafting a card using some of the P&M Advent goodies. [side note: She is probably my #1 fan because she watches EVERY P&M video I've posted! LOL!

I let her pick out all of her supplies, create a design, and taught her how to color (she is DEFINITELY a pro at coloring!!!). When she was done, I saw there was a foil negative scrap. I knew I had to challenge myself to make something using it!!! 

Here's a photo of her card-- it's AMAZING! It's her first card in Savannahland2!!! And even better- she is going to send it to a friend to cheer him up! So sweet;) 
This photo doesn't show how pretty the foiled background is--- plus, it's too blue! I had to take a photo in the afternoon.... I need to learn how to take better photos! LOL!
That's it for me today.

2025: Graphic Quilted card design [card #306]

Hello again, sweet friends! 
#SAVfact: if you know me, then you know that I don't use product the way it's supposed to be used... I tend to think outside the box and use product in different ways. It's just how I "see" things :) 

That's what I did with the Pink & Main Fun Corner dies- when I saw this set, I saw a quilted graphic flower design. 

Now the #funnyNOTfunny part of this story is that I had just read a post on FB. The post shared something I had created, and it stated that what I did for my project wasn't how the product was intended. I was embarrassed and ashamed. I felt like an idiot. I didn't know I used it wrong! **NOTE: NO ONE intentionally said these things to hurt me/my feelings! I am just sensitive! Well... after seeing that post, I wrote the DTC and told her I would immediately start using the product as it was intended! I promised! 

... but... 

The VERY NEXT card I made was THIS! OY! I just can't use product the way it was supposed to be!  


That's it for me today.

2025: Hello [card #308]

Hello again, sweet friends! 

I'm back with another P&M creation using the NEWEST goodies 👉🏻 be sure to shop the SALE HERE!!!!!!! 
I paired the NEW Bold Bright Color toner sheets with the Hello die from the Horizontal Step Card die set to make a CAS friendship card base. 

I thought it needed just a bit more... so I added an embossed sentiment [using Sangria embossing powder] from the On My Mind stamp set. I thought it needed just ONE MORE detail so I added a few enamel dots from the Bright Side Glitter enamel shapes set

PERFECT! It was complete;) 

That's it for me today.
