Celebrate You

Hi All,

I have another cool card for you today!  This one uses the Celebrate You thinlits, but this time we're creating an Ombre effect.  I made it for my husband's birthday and he loved it.  So cool!



To create this effect, you take the 'Celebrate' die and cut it out in four different colors.  I used Pool Party, Coastal Cabana, Bermuda Bay and Taken with Teal {in that order}.  Set the Pool Party sentiment aside.  Next you'll want to trim each of the other sentiments down.  For the Coastal Cabana, I kept the 'le', Burmuda Bay the 'br' and the Taken with Teal 'ate'.  Using adhesive {I used Tombow}, you will now adhere these letters in their correct location on top of the Pool Party base.

I love this effect and you can use it with any color combination.  You can earn the Celebrate You thinlits die for FREE with a $100 purchase in product until March 31st.  If you'd like to add any product to your collection, click on the 'Order Online' icon in the top right-hand corner or pop me an email.  Thanks for stopping by!

Celebrate Amazing You

Hi All,

Very rarely does this happen...a card with no stamps.  Instead, I used the Celebrate You thinlits dies inspired by this card.


Is that rainbow sentiment not cool?  And guess what?  It's so easy to do.  First, cut a piece of white cardstock about the same size as the die.  Grab your stamp pads and an Aquapainter and brush the ink of each color across your piece of cardstock in the rainbow pattern starting from left to right.  Let it dry a few minutes and then die cut your sentiment.  What a cool effect!

Amazing You

Hi All,

This is another beautiful set from the Sale-A-Bration catalog.  It's called Amazing You.  It features a pretty flower and some sentiments in super cute fonts. This was the inspiration for my card.


I used the flower stamp to create the background on the card base. I then stamped it, fussy cut it and layered the petals and leaves to create the focal image. I colored in the center and added a couple of mini pearls.

Item # 147215 Amazing You FREE

The floral print used as the top layer is from the Fresh Florals DSP.  This pack is great.  It comes in each of the 2017-2019 In Colors and has 4 each color of different double-sided prints.  This pack would last you forever and the prints are beautiful.

Lots of Lavender

Hi All!

It's the last week of March, which means, the last week of Sale-A-Bration!  I have quite a few projects that I've worked on over the past couple of months, so I figured it's high time to get them uploaded.

As I was perusing the SAB catalog, the first set that caught my eye, was this one featuring a beautiful bouquet of lavender.



Who doesn't love a bouquet of flowers?  The bouquet and corner rose are from the Lots of Lavender set.  They were colored in using Stampin' Write Markers.

The dragonfly is from the Touches of Texture set. He seemed to work perfectly with the flower garden theme.
