Alphabet - I - Heartfelt love and caring

Friday July 26, 2024

Hello again.. Are you doing lot's of crafting fun this summer? or taking a break??

I'm trying to make some ahead so I can enjoy the summer fun times, weather, sight seeing.

We have a new challenge over at

Theme: I for inspirational board.. (see below)



I used mostly stampin up for this card. Card stock and stamp. I colored with copics and added the sentiment and hearts to the front along with some diamond drills for embellishment.  This card style I saw on Pinterest and Debbie ? I loved the look and so tried to do from the image I saw... Guess I should of watched the video. I could used any image on the inside but I liked the idea of the flowers and picking the color if the inspiration photo I used diamond drill to get the grayer color in there. Since the flower took up a lot of the inside I did add this to a white card base so the sentiment / greeting can go there vs. where the flower is.


Little better look on the inside

Today we have a new challenge over at

Theme:  Hot colors

our sponsor  The Paper Shelter

I used the image Queen Bee.. I colored her with copics. I used Spectrum Noir sparkle pen on her wings. I used My favorite things circle die. I found this designer paper and liked it had a few flowers in the corner so I went around the edge with some Ranger blue ink just to add more color and around the image circle. I finished with the Pretty Pink Posh sentiment and some diamond painting drills.

Hello - It's been a busy month but enjoying it. I wish we traveled more vs. short trips but with the way the world is now it's probably best to stay for trips.

Theme: Metals - colors hardware, paper


This is another Pumpkin kit from Stampin up. The gray card base has gold foiling. The piece behind the butterfly and beyond edges of cream color card stock along with the gold lettering. Thought it worked great for the metal theme.

Hello  
We have a new challenge over at

Theme: Anything goes / Make it cute 

our sponsor is Last Minute Manda


I chose to use Flower puppies and I just kept the colors very light so they looked faded. I wasn't sure how to color it and printed it a couple of times so I could practice.. I like the first one and went with it. I found some soft colors for the background and the cute sentiment from Reverse Confetti. Again I added some left over diamond painting drills for interest.
