Anniversary card

Well it's been quite a while since I last posted. My new job is very exhausting since I'm still in the training phase. Hopefully once I get into the groove everything will go back to normal. I wanted to share a quick card I made for my parents friends anniversary. 

I am currently in love with paper flowers! They can be so much fun and a very simple way to add a nice touch. I used the Jaded Blossom original flag die, which I just love so much! some flowers from recollections, the scallop circle I cut out on my silhouette, the sentiment is stampin up and a few pearls from CTMH.

Hope you like it and have a great weekend!

Jaded Blossom Monthly Challenge

Hey everyone! Happy Labor day, I've had the last 3 days off and yet haven't gotten to craft at all. =( I

m definitely making time today! Here's my project for the Jaded Blossom Sept. Monthly Challenge. I just love this card it is my first attempt at a pop-up card and I think it turned out pretty good. It was for my friend Todd's 30th birthday and we had a blast and he loved the card.

Here's the card standing up I used Pink Paislee paper for the base and some shimmery blue paper from recollections that I embossed with sizzix embossing folder snowballs. I then faux letterpressed the 30 that I cut out on my silhouette with the same embossing folder and CTMH tulip ink. I used the make a wish set from Jaded Blossom for my sentiment. 

Here's a look at the inside of the card.

The card file is from the Silhouette store and I colored the "frosting" and candles with my copics.  

Hope everyone has a happy and safe labor day!!

Wedding Wishes card

Hello Everyone!

Today I'm here with a quick post showing you a beautiful wedding card

I made using one of my favorite stamps ever!!

I just love this dress from Jaded Blossom! It just is so gorgeous and stamps very cleanly. I then inked the edges with black chalk ink and added a damask type print paper behind from Michaels. Then a simple black bow I made with my 3 girl jam bow maker. So elegant and sophisticated. 

Hope everyone has a great rest of your week!

Baby girl card using die

Hello!! Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend! I know I did 

and today marks my first day at my new job. Wish me luck!!

Today I thought I would share a card I made to go with a baby gift.

I just love this card! I used my new 3 girl jam bow maker. Which I am completely in love with!

I started with rounding the corners on the card base and my background paper 

from doodlebug design. Then added the ribbon and pop dotted the sentiment. The same paper 

just reverse side. On top of that I used the new Jaded Blossom curly label die to stamp 

my sentiment on which is from the Michaels dollar bin and 

I added a little flower I put together from recollections with a 

bronze brad in the middle. It's hard to tell but I also added 

some bronze pearls to a few of the flowers in the background for a lil depth.

I of course also had to embellish the envelope.

This was really a fun cute card to make! I really am in love with the colors and design.

For a cute little girl

I made this for my friends daughters first birthday party a while ago. 

I thought it would be something fun to share.

I started off with paper mache letters from Joann's and spray painted them a light pink.
I then decorated each letter with buttons, flowers and paper
flourishes. I trimmed the outside of the letter in the same bright pink ribbon that I
used to hang them with.

Here's a close of the A.


Have a great weekend everyone! Next week I will have a birthday card
for my bestie's husband who turns 30 this weekend!!

Good news and a card!

I haven't posted in a while because I've been crazy busy getting 

everything squared away for the start of a new job, I'm very nervous as I have

been with the same company for 12 years (most of my working life). This new journey is going to be

fun (I'll be working with my best friend again) but very scary to think I will no longer go somewhere

I have considered my second home quite a while now.

On to the fun stuff!!! I have still had a little bit of time to create, mostly thank you cards to people

I have worked with over the years.

I created a very simple, yet elegant card for one of my previous bosses.

The Stamps are all Jaded Blossom, I just love that tree! It's hard to see but I added a few stickles

to the tree for a lil sparkle. The paper is from my scraps and the ribbon was in a Teresa Collins kit I had.

Hope you like, have a great day!

Ombré Flower card
