Paper Smooches sympathy card

Hi everyone,

I'm here playing along with the Paper Smooches Sparks Anything Goes challenge.

Here is my card.  I cut out the flowers and leaves from white 110# card stock and used my copics to colour them in.  I embossed a card stock panel with a small dot embossing folder and cut a circle out of the top middle.  I created a shaker with it and popped it up and added some purple, white and clear sequins along with some shaped glitter.

I stamped the hearts in the background with the ones from the Graceful Beauties set and stamped it with Hero Arts ink and used first and second generation stamping for the background to give it some interest. 

I added a piece of acetate to the back of the panel and loaded in the sequins and glitters and then placed the back panel and that created the shaker.  I then placed the flower and leaved on the top panel, stamped my sentiment on a banner die cut with Versafine and popped it up on some foam tape as well. 

I then added some adhesive to the back and glued it to the purple panel that was cut out from a WPlus9 die and then it all went on an A2 sized card base.

Smile - Bookmark

Hi everyone,

I haven't been posting as much as I would like lately but we are nearing the end of our kitchen rents and I cannot wait.  We are tying up a few things and that's what has been keeping me away from my craft room.  But it will soon be done and I am so excited!

I have a quick post of a bookmark I did up for my daughter.  She loves to read and can have several books on the go at once.  I have a hard time reading one book at a time and finishing it let alone tow or three.  LoL!

I used the Avery Elle bookmark die and cut it out of water colour paper.  I stamped the flowers and then coloured them in with distress inks.  I cut a second bookmark and glued it to the back to give it some stability and stamped the sentiment in the middle.  I then finished it off with a small piece of ribbon.

That's it for me, see you again soon!!

Happy Canada Day!!!!

Happy Canada Day!!!!!

Today will be filled with family, great food and some awesome fireworks to finish off the day.

In celebration, I made a card!  I'm 10 minutes pasted June 30 for #thedailymarker30day2 but I'm sure Kathy won't mind.  ;)

I thought of this just a few hours ago, when I say my crafty friend Marcie's card I thought of doing one too.   Click here to visit her blog, she's pretty amazing.

Now on with my card.  I started out with the Lawn Fawn stitched leaves and die cut the maple leaf three times.  One leaf I cut in half and tucked them under the panel to make it look like I have four leaves on the card. 

 I used the new stitched oval dies to cut out two different sized panels and popped them both up on foam tape.

I used R24, R46 and R59 from my copics and coloured in the leaves and took the clear glitter Wink of Stella to finish them off.

 Finally I took the LF Milo's ABCs alphabet and stamped out the work CANADA with a little heart at the end with SSS Schoolhouse red ink.

Now on to my card!  I have a lovely Cafe Latte sitting pretty on a stand just waiting for that special someone to come and take it away!

I used the Lawn Fawn Love you a Latte and Baked with Love stamps sets.  The cup and sentiment is from Love you a Latte and the cake stand is from Baked with love and coloured them in with my copics.  I added a twine bow and white dots to the stand for interest.  

I cut out the front panel from the Lawn Fawn stitched rectangles and then framed it with a piece of grey card stock.  

I used a circle die and cut it out of printer paper so it wouldn't be too thick when I stamped it out.  I used a wood panel background and used a light grey ink then took a black pen and added stitch lines.

To finish off the card I took some hearts I had in my stash and added some sequins.

That's it for me.  A list of all the supplies are at the bottom of this post.
