Hello

Good morning, I have another super clean and simple card to share today.  I just received the new speech bubble die by Lawn Fawn and also the hello die by Avery Elle and decided to pair them together and make this card.  The speech bubble was die cut using some pretty paper from My Minds Eye Cut & Paste 6x6 pad.  I added some solid pink twine and some more homemade enamel dots and that was it!  It seriously took me 5 minutes to make this card, but I like how it turned out!

Our new dog has a lot of energy, so I am going to take him out for a walk and hopefully wear him out a little.  He is such a sweetie!  I will be back later to post another card or two!

Happy New Year!!  I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and New Years!

We had a lovely Christmas.  All the kids were here and it was very low key, but very nice.  We stayed up to watch the ball drop last night and then headed to bed.  We must be getting old, ha!

Anyway, I tidied my crap room up today and then had some time to play.  I made a fun little card using some scraps and leftovers.

I tried to get a photo outside, but it was too dark already and so I had to take it in my crap room, which is very dark, so please excuse the photo.  I reached for my 24/7 6x6 pad by Simple Stories and some scraps that I had laying around.  I used some fun little label letters by Tim Holtz.  They are perfect for making your own sentiments!  I had the black heart diecuts by Lawn Fawn on my desk and I applied glossy accents over them.  The tag was cut using my cameo and I popped that up! Quick and fun little card.  I love using tags on my cards and I die cut a whole bunch of them just to have on hand.

Anyway, Happy New Year and I wish you all the best for 2014!

WT454 Emboss Resist

I was so happy to see today's ways to use it challenge on Splitcoaststampers.  I LOVE emboss resist and I love to use my gelato's to  do it!!  I stamped my fun background stamp in versamark and then sprinkled white ep on it and heat set it with my heat gun.  Then I scribbled some metallic mint gelato over the image and blended a bit with my finger.  Next I rubbed a baby wipe over the whole panel and watched it blend beautifully!!!  That is when the real magic happens!  It is wonderful to watch :)

If you haven't tried this technique, you should give it a go!!  Here is the link to the challenge on SCS:  http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/forums/ways-use-f46/wt454-~-em-boss-resist-not-futile-%7B11-21-2013%7D-t581200.html

Thanks for looking!  Have a great day :)

A Tweet Thank You

Hi there!  It is an absolutely beautiful fall day here in Virginia today.  My hubby and I went for a drive through the battlefields and took a little stroll on one of the trails.  Fall is my favorite season!!  I think I missed the peak of fall however as the colors were a little muted, but still lovely!

I have a little fall card to share with you today.  I used my October card kit from Simon Says Stamp which has some cute paper from Into The Woods by Lawn Fawn and a fun little stamp set called Giving Thanks.  I used some inka gold in copper to add some more color to the leaves.  I love how it looks.  I just put a dab on my craft mat and then spritzed it with water and colored the leaves!  Well, that's it for me today, I will be back soon with some more cards to share.  Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
