Tulips for Mother's Day

I made this card for my sweet Mother-in-law for Mother's Day.

I used lots of My Creative Time products on this and all of the paper is from PaperTrey Ink. For my 3x4 shape card I used the following My Creative Time products: The Stitched Grass Die (grass), the Stitched 3x4 Journal Die (shape card), Stitched Pretty Flowers and Leaves Dies (tulips and stems), the Stitched Sweetheart and XOXO Dies (hearts inside the flowers), and the Cartoon Cloud Background stamp.

I used the Stitched Gift Card Pocket Die for my gift card and the sentiment comes from the More Gift Card Sentiments stamp set.

This is the card with it's coordinating envelope. The Stitched 3x4 Journal die fits perfectly inside the Scallop Stitched Envelope Die. I added another Tulip and then some sentiments from the Mom, You Rock stamp set.

I'm entering this for the current challenge over at My Creative Time. The challenge is to make a project for Mother's Day with at least one flower on it.

Have a wonderful day! Hugs- Glora

You're Egg-straordinary!

Hi, I have a super quick card to share with you today. It is a little 3.5 x 3.5" note card that I made using one of Emma's newest release stamps sets Happy Hunting. 

I tried a new technique (for me) on the background. You ink the background up with Tim Holtz distress ink and then you spray your stamp with glimmer mist and stamp it. For the background stamp I used Emma's pretty floral background stamp from the Spring Chicken Background stamp set. This gives a really cool effect in person. The inner part has the exact impression of the background stamp and then it gives a glittery outline to everything. I just wish it showed up better on this picture. Oh and I also stamped and colored my bunny on PaperTrey Ink Kraft cardstock.

Well that's it for today. I hope you have a TERRIFIC day! Hugs- Glora

Items Used:

My Creative Time stamps - Happy Hunting

Simply Crafts Challenge for January

Hello and welcome to another Simply Crafts Challenge. This month the cut Pam and I are using is the cupcake with the heart on top of it from the Sweet Treats cartridge. If you don't have that cartridge you can still play along just use any cupcake cut. HERE is a link to the Simply Crafts Challenge blog so you can join in the fun.

Here is what I made with this cut:

That darling sentiment is from one of Emma's newest Valentine sets called, 100% Sweetness. And those darling little faces those are from The Cornies Face Assortment by Peachy Keen Stamps. All the cardstock is from PaperTrey Ink and the cute heart embossing on the background is a Sizzix Embossing folder.

My Creative Time's Design Team Day - Teal, Red and Chocolate Chip!

***If you are looking for my Peachy Keen Stamps Guest Designer Day 3 post, scroll down or click HERE. If you are looking for my Day 4 post you can see it HERE***

Hello creative friends! Welcome to another My Creative Time Design Team Thursday! Today we are all making cards using the colors teal, red and chocolate chip!!! What a fun color combo. Make sure you drop by Emma's blog to see what she and my design team sisters have made. Here are my mini note cards (they are 3" x 3").

I had a lot of fun using Emma's darling 'Small Talk' set for these cards. They make the perfect little note cards! I stamped the borders in chocolate and the sentiments in red. I think these would be fun to tuck in my daughter's backpack or lunch on occasion. Great size for a little note!

The darling faces on the lady bugs and the eyes on the hedgehogs are from the new Peachy Keen Stamps face set called 'Winter Wonderland.' In fact thanks to Peachy Keen Stamps I am giving a set of these 'Winter Wonderland' faces away this week. Just make sure and comment on one or all of my Peachy Keen Stamp projects for this week while I am a Guest Designer (on my blog and on the Peachy Keen Blog)!

I also wanted to enter these in the Let's Face it Friday Challenge over at Peachy Keen. For this challenge we were to use animals.

Thanks for stopping by today! I hope it is a wonderful day for you!
