Hello, everyone!! Today's Technique Lover's Challenge over at Splitcoast is to let your die-cuts be the focus of your project. I used the Blossoms Five die to cut out the flower shape and a bird die from Memory Box, with a sentiment from the "Be Joyful" set by Our Daily Bread designs. This was super quick, easy, and fun.....can't wait to make more like this but with different paper!
The general cut-out design is based on this gorgeous card by mayodino....LOVE it!!!
Thanks for stopping by!

Hi, everyone! This week's Featured Stamper is Angela aka monkeymama....congrats, Angela!!! What a super fun gallery to cruise through.....I chose this super cute card to re-create, even though her version is Clean and Simple and I went overboard again with my version!
The monster truck is from the Special Boy set and the sentiment is from Little Boys, both from Our Daily Bread desingns. The star frame was cut out of gold mirror paper with a Memory Box die.....parts of the truck were painted with gold Smooch paint, however, I could not get a good photo.......it looks really cute in real life, I promise! The little stars were cut outs from the frame die....aren't they cute?! :)
Thanks so much for looking! God bless!

Hello, everyone! A few days ago, Jennifer aka mother's daughter was crowned Queen For The Day over at Splitcoast. She has soooo many cool techniques and gorgeous cards in her gallery....I could not pass up the opportunity to help her celebrate! I chose this beautiful card to re-create.
The background blue cardstock was dry embossed, then inked with burgundy, then the entire panel was covered in Versamark then Clear Embossing Powder and heated with a heat gun. I was going for a faux leather look, but I think I chose the wrong embossing folder for that effect....should have used a smaller pattern. The flower was made by layering several die cuts. The sentiment panel was stamped with the new Antique Labels, cut out with the ODBD Exclusive Antique Labels and Border Dies, then stamped with "You Are Blessed" from Fellowship Sentiments.
Card 'Ingredients':
Stamps: Our Daily Bread designs 'Antique Labels' and 'Fellowship Sentiments';
Designer Paper: Prima 'Botanical' (for leaves and sentiment panel);
Accessories: ODBD Exclusive Spellbinders 'Antique Labels and Border Dies', Spellbinders 'Foliage', 'Pockets and Swirls', and 'Blossoms Five', Sponge Dauber, Clear Embossing Powder, Versamark Ink, Heat tool;
Size: A2.

Hi, everyone! Today's Inspiration Challenge at Splitcoast is so fantastic......choose any item from the Layla Grayce store to help create a card or project. If you can't find any inspiration there, then I'm afraid that there is no help for you! ;) I chose this beautiful three drawer chest.....the gorgeous flowers instantly reminded me of some Basic Grey 'Picadilly' papers I have.
The layout for my card is from this week's Mojo Sketch Challenge 275. Their sketches are always fabulous, but it seems that there is never enough time in the week to squeeze it in. For the first sketch each month, prizes are awarded, so I'm happy to be able to play along!!

Stamps: Our Daily Bread designs 'Be Joyful';
Designer paper: Basic Grey 'Picadilly';
Accessories: Cheery Lynn Designs 'Fanciful Flourish Small', Zva Creative Roses and Pearls, Prima Crocheted Lace, silk ribbon (threaded), Spellbinders Classic Circle and Square Nestabilities, Sponge Dauber, Foam Tape, Paper Piercer and template;
