2024: Paper Smooches January Release [card #8-12]

Hello again, sweet friends! 

I'm back with the NEWEST Paper Smooches release- you can find all the stamps and dies HERE on the Queen & Co. website!! 

I absolutely love love love Kim's designs- she blows me away each month with her new images and creative mind!! This month we have a super cute set, Forest Family, with several different critters and fun sentiments. I tried to make something different using each critter, and I even made a PINK scene using the new tree dies as STENCILS!! Fun:)

2024: Love You Leopard + Technique Idea [card #1]

Hello again, sweet friends! 

I'm back with ANOTHER Pink & Main project! This time instead of coloring I share a quick technique idea to help elevate your die cut sentiments (or any die really). 

I created this very CAS card (definitely NOT my style... so it's no wonder I wanted to "elevate" it! LOL!). I created it in a few steps-- stencil the background, add a heart die cut with gold accents, and add die cut sentiment. Done! 

But was it really done? Not for me. I wanted to add something extra behind the sentiment but this die cut set didn't come with an outline die to match. NO WORRIES! Here's how I created that outline image for the sentiment die cut: 

• Flip the die so the word is "readable"
• Trace around that die onto paper or vellum
• cut it out, erase traced lines, and attach your die cut sentiment

See? It's that easy!! Adding outline images to die cut sentiments when none are available can be done with literally ALL of your dies!!! 

I hope that this inspires you to try this technique on your next project!! Please remember to share what you create so I can leave you some love ❤️

That's it for me today. Happy crafting!

2024: Pink & Main Owl My Love [card #2] FULL REVEAL

Hello again, sweet friends! 

In case you missed the FULL reveal of my second project on the Pink & Main blog click HERE-- be sure to stop by and leave some love❤️

I'm continuing my new series, Savannah Learns to Color!!!! This is only my second image that I've colored--- and I know it's rudimentary! I'm trying and learning! 

It took me three tries to get the right coloring for this little owl. I had lots of ideas for him- like maybe a blue owl, or pink... but I went with this yellow-orange look. I think for my SECOND project that it turned out really good:) Not bad for a newbie!

That's it for me today. I'll be sharing even MORE colored images SOON!!!! Be on the lookout:)

2024: Catching Up (part 2)

Hello again, sweet friends! 

MORE catching up to do today! Check out these projects that I created recently. 

This card was for a friend who married in September last year. I used his wedding invite as the base and then matched the papers. You can't see it but her dress is sparkly! LOVE!

This was my 17th anniversary card for Trav. Unfortunately we left on a fun getaway and I forgot to put it in my bag so he hasn't received it yet! It's been two months! I better put this under his pillow tonight:) 

I hate to say this but the thank you card below was NOT easy to make! But worth it:) I like how it turned out:) 

I made all 5 of these cards in one day! I tried so many new techniques and color combos-- it was fun! 

A CAS "little" Hello card using scraps. 

Erin Lee Creative asked me to share a few projects for one of their releases. Here is what I made (I went a bit overboard! LOL!): 

That's it for me today, but I will be sharing MORE! I promise;)

2024: Catching up (part 1)

Hello again, sweet friends! 

I'm trying to catch up as fast as possible! I created 266 cards last year, 302 the year before, and 343 the year before that! I haven't even shown you a quarter of these projects!!! LOL! 

So get ready for some quick weekly posts where I share creations I've made the past few years. I probably won't have much to say about each but will do my best to share when I can <3 

This first card was given to a fellow aqua fitness instructor who retired last year. Sad thing is that she passed 8-10 months after she retired. I really liked this card that I made so many others with that background! You might see them as I continue to post;) 

I love a twofer card- I used the scraps from this first card as the base for the next card design. LOVE! 

These two cards were created using the Your Paper Insider paper box of beautiful cardstock!

I created the next card for a friend whose 23 year old cat passed away. 

I used alcohol inks and some Erin Lee Creative dies for this sympathy card. I really think it turned out great (other than my "sympathy" word is crooked! LOL!).

This is my Mom's Mother's Day card for 2023. There are three butterflies on the front representing all three of her kids. The ribbon is white but in the photo it turned out cream. EH! It looked so pretty in person!! 

Here is Trav's Mom's Mother's Day card from 2023. 

Here is a graduation card I made for a friend. Simple design but fun. 

Ok- that's it for me today. I will be sharing  MORE MORE MORE soon! 

THANKS so much for stopping by!    

Be blessed ❤️
