Aud Sentiments #321 - sending a smile your way

Monday January 6, 2025

Hello and hope your Monday is off to a good start
Make it your best week 

We have a new challenge over at 
Aud Sentiments #321

Theme: Mostly white / or new beginnings (home, job, baby)



I went with mostly white. I first die cut the background which is a Paper trey ink die. I punched out most of the centers but saved a few still in it, I die cut the PTI flowers, the My favorite things leaves and using Ranger ink added a little color to them. I then laid they out of my glass mat and adhered them together and adhered the background die to the white card base then picked up the flower/leaves and added them to the front of the card. I added the Stampin up sentiment also cut from the SU die.  I finished with some Diamond painting half pearls to the center of the flowers..

Make my Monday #241 - Happy Birthday

Monday December 16, 2024

Hello 

Welcome to another challenge over at

Theme: Faux or real stitching


I think I should of changed the background color vs. the tan background. It's doesn't do the card justice..
This card I made for my daughter who loves purple and the base is a deep purple from Stampin up. The image is what I stamped when I was at a friends house and I don't know the name of the image but it's beautiful I think it's a Gina K image . That's why I stamped it.. lol.. I colored with Copics. I used My favorite things stitch die and cut the image and the green. I heat embossed the Simon Says sentiments. I used Nuvo drops on the top sprig. I added Taylored Expressions gems for the center of the flower and Spectrum Noir glitter brush over the petals. I added some diamond drills for extra bling.  I know she will love it.. Her birthday is in February. 

Challenges:
Allsorts wk. 811 - lots of white or atg

Alphabet challenge - Peace on earth

Friday December 13, 2024

Hello and hope your day is going well and your weather is what you like

We have another challenge over at
Alphabet challenge - last one till the new year

Theme: Silent night



I used Ranger inks and created the night sky. For the falling snow I used bleed proof white and splattered the sky. I then used Stampin up houses and die cut them out. I tried so many options an didn't like any so settled for this.. still not that happy with it. I used Simon Says die for the snow mounds. I used Ranger in to give a little color and stickles for some glitter. I stamped the sentiment and don't know who it's from. It's a silent night - everyone is in bed
