Graduation Cards

I have a couple of more graduations cards that I hadn't posted yet. I went with quick and easy graduation cards this year and printed them straight out of my Silhouette Designer software.


This card uses a file that was a freebie at Lettering Delights. You can still get it but it is no longer a freebie, it is called The Happy Graduate - 2014 and can be found HERE.

For this next card I used the same Lettering Delight image and added a Pretty Paper Pretty Ribbons image with it.


I stamped his face with a PKS face stamp called In the Garden Face Assortment. The boy comes from the PPPR SVG set called Graduates Cutting File.

Have a wonderful day! Hugs- Glora

On The Road Again

I'm happy to be doing a guest designer post for Craftin Desert Diva's today using the new Destination Fun stamp set.

We are going on a road trip this summer and I thought it would be fun to do some quick little treat bags for my girls with their favorite gum inside. I think they will love it.


Isn't that sentiment from Destination Fun perfect for these? I did a little masking so I could put the sentiment on the 3 lines. I like how it turned out.


 The images all come from an svg set by Miss Kate Cuttables, appropriately called On the Road Again. I made the little treat bag using My Creative Time's 4x4 Journal Die + More. I hope you enjoyed it.

Have a wonderful day! Hugs- Glora

Happy Birthday Sweetie! - Card

One of my nieces is having a birthday soon. She is in the Mandarin Chinese immersion program at her school and loves Mulan. I thought it would be fun to do a Mulan inspired birthday card for her. I was just trying to figure out the design of my card when the new Peachy Keen Stamps sketch challenge came up. It made it a breeze to put together with the sketch as inspiration. 

Below is the sketch (and there is still a ton of time to join in the challenge so you should join in too). You can find the details HERE.

And here is the card that I made. I changed things a tiny bit but stuck pretty close to the sketch.


I got the Mulan inspired cut file from Too Cute By Jessica's Pretty Little Princesses 2. The perfect little face I stamped on is from Peachy Keen Stamps Princess Face Assortment. The oval die and sentiment are both from My Creative Time. The oval comes from the Surprise Pop-Out Card die and the sentiment is from Celebrate Good Times.


Have a wonderful day! Hugs- Glora

Happy Anniversary Tag - 55 Years

Today's project is near and dear to my heart. It is for my parent's 55th wedding anniversary. I feel very blessed to celebrating this day with them. We almost lost my dad about a year and a half ago and I'm treasuring every moment we have with him.

My love of all things Disney came from many early childhood memories with my family. We are all kind of Disney nuts. Anyway, when Emma came out with her Stitched Pretty Flowers & Leaves last month I knew that the little flower circles would make a cute Mickey icon. What do you think? 


Emma's products made this tag SO easy and I think it turned out really cute too. Don't you love how that stitching around the circle makes a little Mickey head? This tag is going to be tied onto some new luggage that my parents need for their anniversary trip to Disneyland.

Here is the backside of the tag (the perfect spot to add a gift card for their trip too):


I LOVE this little pocket for gift cards. Isn't it perfect?! Here are the items I used for this tag (all of which are My Creative Time products): Tag Dies (tag), Vintage Stitched Label (banner), Stitched Pretty Flowers & Leaves (Mickey icon), Stitched Sweetheart & XOXO Dies (hearts), Tag Gift Pocket Die (gift card pocket), Fun gift Pocket Sentiments (a little something sentiment), Gift Card Sentiments (happy anniversary sentiment), and All Around Birthday Time (55th sentiment).

I hope you enjoyed my little tag! Have a wonderful day! Hugs- Glora

You Light Up My Life Tags

I'm cutting one more challenge close to the deadline. I wanted to join in the Peachy Keen Stamps linky party. I made some tags with one of the new sets.

I love this little light bug. Isn't it darling? It comes from the new A Little Light Camping. It is such a darling set and comes with the perfect sentiments too! I masked off part of the sentiment and just stamped 'let it shine.'


I think this flashlight is super cute too. It comes on this set too and so does the sentiment.


The tag die is by My Creative Time and is called Stitched Round Tab, Arrow and Tag Die. Here are both of the tags together.


I colored these real quick with my Spectrum Noir markers. I'm having fun experimenting with them a little here and there! I hope you have a terrific rest of your weekend. Hugs- Glora

HURRAY - Graduate

I made this card for my niece that graduated from college. She is an amazing girl and I'm so proud of her.



I used this cute girl graduate from a Pretty Paper Pretty Ribbons, Graduates Cutting Files svg set and since it is girly and for a girl I'm entering it into their current challenge too. I used the print feature of the Silhouette for my card and I stamped her face with a Peachy Keen face stamp from the Basic Paper Doll Faces stamp assortment. Have a great day! Hugs- Glora

Flower - Thank You

I'm joining in on the Peachy Keen Stamps Photo/Color Inspiration at the last minute. I used the colors and the flower theme as the inspiration for my thank you card.

PKC-14-08
Here is my card:


You may be wondering where the Peachy Keen Stamps are. Well they are the sentiment. The 'Thank' comes from Thank You - Big and the 'YOU' I stamped using letters from  Lucy's ABC's and 123's SOLIDS. The basic card design comes from a Lettering Delights set called Merry Month of May.

I hope you enjoyed. I have a few cards for challenges that will be posted the next couple of days :). Hugs- Glora
