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 kit🎉🎉🎉 

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: 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 kit🎉🎉🎉 

 

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. 😂 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 😂

That's it for me today.

2026: Playing with Scraps... and Twofer Cards

Hello, sweet friends! 

I was playing around the other day with inking backgrounds. I went with a different color palette- greens, yellows, orange, red, and dark blue. I was thinking "masculine" ?!?! It wasn't my favorite color combo... but I kept going! 

 

I also did different ink blends- linear and blotches. Again... I wasn't a fan but kept going! 

 

After I die cut the sentiment (crooked)... I DEFINITELY didn't like what I was making 🤣 but... I kept going!   

 

I ended up using a few Pink & Main birthday stamps/sentiments... and you know what???? I LOOOOOOOOVE these! 

 

Are they perfect? Nope! Can you see my mistakes? Nope! And does the color combo work now??? Possibly! LOL! 

 

And since I don't throw anything away, EVER--- I decided to make a few cards using the scraps from the sentiment die cut. These are very simple and the image is colored exactly like the other one. EASY! And a #twofer!!!   

I can't decide if I like the inked background or the background scraps MORE! LOL Both sets of cards make me happy and will help me fill up my masculine birthday card stash:)   

That's it for me today.

2026: A Catch Father's Day Card [Card #163]

Hello, friends! 

I'm back to share a fun pop-up card design using the NEWEST Pink & Main A Catch Pop-Up Card dies--- this is a great masculine card design that could be used for the outdoors man and ANY occasion! 

I decided to go with a green background and water to make the fish colors pop. I really wanted to make a "stripper" type fish... but since I don't know much about fish, this design works for me! LOL! 

This is Trav's Step-Dad's Father's Day card this year. My Dad??? Well... I have an idea for his card but it will be late due to my illness🤦🏼‍♀️

That's it for me today.

Paper Smooches SPARKS: June Anything Goes (wk1) challenge

Hello, friends:} 

Today we start another weekly challenge over at Paper Smooches SPARKS blog!! Another Anything Goes challenge starts today!   

That's right--you get to create ANYTHING you want (as long as you use Paper Smooches stamps)!! This is the BEST challenge ever!!!

Today I created a CAS card for my dad--- for Father's Day. 

I used some super old Echo Park papers so I could join in my Sav Challenges:) I also used the PS Daddy Yo, Alphadot, and Spiffy Scooters stamp sets. I didn't use any dies--- although I tried! LOL! 

I really wanted to use the PS Apron die to create this chef apron... but I just couldn't get it to look right. I had probably 5 PS dies out and worked on a prototype for about an hour. After that time, I realized that I could just buy a Silhouette image and die cut it with my machine! LOL! 

That's it for me today--but be sure to stop by the other Paper Smooches SPARKS DT members' blogs, get inspired, and leave them some love.

Paper Smooches SPARKS: March Designer Drafts challenge

Hello, friends:}

Today we start another weekly challenge over at Paper Smooches SPARKS blog!! This week we are sharing a DESIGNER DRAFT challenge. 

This week we are inspired by the following sketch:

**Sentiments can be placed anywhere on the sketch.

Ok---so I think I went a bit off... I didn't follow the sketch as much as I had been doing. Maybe 65% this time! I moved the sentiment to the banner (which is ok because sentiments can be anywhere). I also made the banner a rectangle and used just a triangle on the bottom right edge. And I did some other things... you'll see:) 

I used several papers and embellies that I had in my stash for this card- LOVE! I made the sentiment, from the PS Bosom Buddy set, black on black- LOVE! I die cut my brother's name and stamped a background for part of it using the PS Sassy Letters and Kissables 2 stamps/dies- LOVE! I finished the card using a transparency, ICT black embossing powder/VersaMark ink, and the Incognito and Spookalicious stamp sets ***Remember when I would use the pumpkin eyes for chevrons?!?! I remembered that this week and used it for a fun embellishment! LOVE x10000000! 

That's it for me today--but be sure to stop by the other Paper Smooches SPARKS DT members' blogs, get inspired, and leave them some love.

Paper Smooches SPARKS: March Anything Goes (wk1) challenge

Hello, friends:}

Today we start another weekly challenge over at Paper Smooches SPARKS blog!! Another Anything Goes challenge starts today!   

That's right--you get to create ANYTHING you want (as long as you use Paper Smooches stamps)!! This is the BEST challenge ever!!!

This is a CAS masculine birthday card... not saying who it's for:) ***I'm doing my BEST NOT to show Trav this card before his bday next week! I didn't even show him this card yet! Now that's super hard for me- I can't keep secrets! LOL! 

I used some older papers {so this card fits in the Sav Challenges!!!} from Basic Grey along with some cork embellishments from Studio Calico. I stamped the male figure from the PS Off the Charts set and die cut the sentiment using the PS Sassy Letters. I like how the letters for the first two words are the same paper--- I die cut them thinking I would take them out and use a different paper behind, but I liked the way it looked:) To finish, I splattered some IMAGINE Crafts irRESISTible textured spray. LOVE! 

I used the Paper Smooches Christmas Words 2 and Snowflakes dies to create this CAS holiday card. The papers are from an OLD Doodlebug pad. The sequins is from Pretty Pink Posh. Super simple-- LOVE it!
