It's a Good Day to have a Good Day!!

Today I am sharing a card I created for a recent swap with the theme of Picnic/Food. I am using the retired Newton's Nook Woodland Picnic stamp set for my card today. I don't think this set has ever seen ink, yikes!!

I paired the cute critters with some fun papers from Doodlebug and some dies from my stash. 

I hope my swap partner likes it! It was fun to get all those critters colored up with my Copics and arrange them on the card. It's a little busy but I thought it was a fun picnic scene!

Have a good day! Go do something for yourself and go get crafty!

Thanks For Being So Sweet!

I decided to create another ladybug card since I had the papers out still from Sketch 4 of Kendra's Card Challenge. 

I used the Not 2 Shabby Beary Sweet Bugs stamp set for today's card along with the Ladybug Hugs 6x6 Paper. I was super excited to use my new Trinity Stamps Dainty Scallop Rectangles too! I have wanted them for quite some time and finally ordered them. I may have gone a little overboard with using them but I was so happy to get them I just kept layering!

I added the sentiment to the inside along with a sweet ladybug to carry the theme through the whole card.

Have a sweet day! Go do something for yourself and go get crafty!

Kind Words Are Like Honey Sweet To The Soul

Today I have a sweet card using the Crafty Stamp Co.'s Bees & Honey Stamp Set!

Such darling little bears dressed as bees, adorable!!

To help me decide on a layout I pulled out my Inspired By The Sketch Book! I chose Sketch #48. I always feel once I have the sketch picked out the rest of the card goes together quickly!

I stamped, colored and cut out the sweet bear and all the elements of the sketch. Then it was just a matter of putting the card together. The finishing touches were some sparkle on the wings and adding some Sea Glass Sparkle Crafty Dots!

I think this turned out so super sweet! It was fun to go with the aqua/turquoise color instead of black for the bee look.

Have a super sweet day! Go do something for yourself and go get crafty!

I realized that St. Patrick's Day isn't that far away and I hadn't used the St. Patrick's Day goodies that I purchased from Jaded Blossom so I sat down to create using those!!

For my card today I decided to use the Gnome Friends: Bear Die with the Gnome Dies: St. Patrick's Day Add On. I was smiling as creating!

Cruising Critters

Today I have a card using another Sunny Studio stamp from my stash, Cruising Critters. I just love how many critters are in that car! 

I got lots of inspiration for my card from the Sunny Studio Blog. Their design team is so talented!

I started out by trying to create a road by embossing the stripes for the road but let's just say that was not a pretty sight so I ended up just using a white gel pen to create the stripes.

I used the Cloud Edger stencil from A Colorful life to create the clouds in the background. I am really liking how versatile the Cityscape Border is and added it to this card in white. 

To finish the card I used the Newton's Nook Land Borders die to create some grass and then added the Cruising Critters that I colored with copics and fussy cut out. I like the Sunny Studio has sentiments that you can build whatever sentiment you want, I added my sentiment to the top of the sky.

Have a wonderful day! Go do something for yourself and go get crafty!

Diaper Bag Gift Card Holders

Today I have some fun cards to share that use the Papertrey Ink Go-To Gift Card Holder: Diaper Bag die.  I just think they are so cute and fun!! Lots of teeny tiny pieces but it's worth it for the cuteness! After creating these cards I think this might be one of my favorite die sets now for baby cards!

I used faux gift cards for this photo--that's what I use for craft fairs. 

This card was my first one and one getting use to the dies. I was going for a more gender neutral feel for this one.

I wanted the second card to have more of a boy feel to it. I just love how versatile the dies are so you can build your diaper bag however you want!

The last card (for today) I wanted to have more of a girl feel to it. 

I can see that this will be a go to die set for baby cards in the future. Now to build up my baby sentiment stamps and paper as I found I am really lacking in that department!

Have a super day! Go do something for yourself and go get crafty!
