Mid Month Inspiration With A Colorful Life Designs

 Hello everyone.  I'm so excited for the Mid Month Inspiration Stencil from A Colorful Life Designs that is New today and on sale called Rose Swirl that's $4.  You can also use VonFan10 to save even more.



Without further ado here is my card.


I love this Beautiful stencil Rose Swirl 6x9.  I chose to make a Slimline card with it.  I inked it up on white cardstock using inks in Hero Arts Ombre Lime To Forever Green and Ombre ink Light Ruby To Royal Red.  I then cut my background to be 8 x 3 1/2 using my paper trimmer.



I stamped my sentiment in black ink from Simon Says Stamp from the Chunky Thankful Greetings Stamp set.  I then glued my background to a coordinating card base and added some card bling in Metallic Silver.  I love how this card came out and I hope you grab it on sale and using my code.  Check out the Newest Release here.

Christmas Greetings

 Hello I have my last card to share for the Fall Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop.  I had so much fun this week.  I hope you did too.



Without further ado here is my card.



I honestly had another card in mind for today but I was so excited to use the Betterpress November 2025 Club Of The Month Paws In The City from Spellbinders.  I love her so much!  I used some Spellbinders specialty paper and ink and watercolored with Karin Brush Markers, water, and a paintbrush.  Just fun loose watercoloring.  I did use my paint brush to draw in some ground placement for my girl and dog.


I also used a Layering Stencil from A Colorful Life Designs called Layered Holly . Use VonFan10 to save.  I used inks from Concord & 9th in Poppy and Parsley for the leaves and berries.  I also used a Spellbinders Betterpress Plates from Christmas Greetings for my sentiment.  I glued my watercolored panel to a pink A2 card base 4 1/4 x 5 1/2.  I had so much fun making this card. 

 Have a Wonderful Day!💗











Birthday Shaker Card For The N2S November Mood Board Challenge

 Well hello everyone.  I'm so excited for our November Not 2 Shabby Shop November Mood Board Challenge.  I have a card to share.  I hope you join our challenge.  You can win a $15 GC to the N2S Shop.  So fun!  You may enter up to 3 times if using Not 2 Shabby Products and 1 time if using other products.


Without further ado here is my card.








I chose to make a shaker card using the New Make A Wish Paper Pad 6x6 and Ephemera Die-cut pieces.  I used the EZ Wonder Die #1 for my shaker square with the stitched circle opening. This die is so much fun you can run a 6x6 paper and this die through your die-cutting machine and get tons of die-cuts through 1 pass.  I used vellum instead of acetate and lots of fun colored stars embellishments from my stash. Foam tape was applied to make my shaker. My green pattern paper was cut to 5x5.


This pattern paper and ephemera made this card so quick and beautiful.  I love it and I just shook my card just now...and it's so much fun. Everything was glued to a 5x5 pink heavy weight card base.  The birds saying Fun is so great and fun for a Birthday card.  I hope you'll add your card to the N2S Blog here

A Day Without Coffee...

 Hello everyone.  I have another Coffee card today for the Fall Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop.  I'm loving all the coffee card I have been seeing.  So much fun.  





I chose to make a Coffee card today. I'm using a retired Essentials By Ellen Latte Love by Ellen Hutson.  I love this set and it doesn't get much love so I'm changing that.  I stamped this cup and cute bear with Memento tuxedo ink on white cardstock and colored it in with my copic markers.  I cut out the cup with the coordinating die. I tried to make it Holidayish with a red cup and Christmas Pattern paper from Sponsor Not 2 Shabby Shop A Woodland Christmas.  I used other Paper packs from Not 2 Shabby like #Coffeeandbooks Vol. 2 for the coffee stains and Cottage Roses Paper Pack for the plaid.  The other pattern paper for my last layer was from my stash.



I stamped this fun sentiment in black ink on white cardstock because it's so true and I really liked it.  I glued everything to a A2 card base 4 1/4 x 5 1/2.  I had so much fun making this card.  It was so easy too.

Inspired By...Challenge Table Setting

 Hello everyone.  I'm so excited for the New Inspired by...Challenge Table Setting #IB362.  We have a New Sketch too.  Don't forget to tag inspired_by_challenge on the socials. #inspiredbychallenges






I was inspired by the photo colors in the inspiration photo.  I looked through my stash for table settings and didn't have any images that I could find that would work.  So I did florals because they can be in vases on tables right?  I used Pinkfresh Studio Magnolias stamp set for the florals and leaves it's a one piece image which is so great.  I stamped with memento tuxedo ink and colored them in with my alcohol markers to mimic some colors from the photo.  I then used the coordinating die that is one piece to cut out all the images.  I cut out white cardstock 4 x 5 1/4 and blue cardstock 4 1/4 x 5 1/2.



I stamped a sentiment onto my white cardstock using Pinkfresh Studio Lemons & Blueberries Stamp set.  I then ink blended with Faded Jeans Distress Oxide ink and arranged my images.  I then glued all to a A2 card base 4 1/4 x 5 1/2. That finishes my card.  

I hope I inspired you to try out this challenge.  It's so much fun and if you win your card will be shared and you will get a badge.

Gingerbread Latte

 Hello everyone.  I'm so excited for the Fall Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop going on now.  I had to use this cute Gingerbread die set that is new to me.  A special sweet friend sent me a GC to Sponsor Doodlebugwa and I had to grab this die set from Sponsor Pretty Pink Posh.  Thank you to my sweet friend I hope she knows how thankful I am to her.


Without further ado here is my card.




Isn't this Gingie Mug Cute??? Obsessed with Gingies all the time.  I love this set from Pretty Pink Posh called Gingerbread Mugs.  I think they have a Penguin set too EEEP😍.  I did some ink blending with Scorched Timber Oxide ink on an ivory colored cardstock for the mug and handle.  I cut out a lot of the other elements with white cardstock and used my copic markers to color them in.  The coffee die was cut out with brown cardstock and the candy cane has 2 dies so I used red and white cardstock. The eyes and mouth I used a copic marker.  So fun.  



This cute paper is from Sponsor Crafty Stamp Co. called Merry Latte.  Loove.  I glued everything to a A2 card base 4 1/4 x 5 1/2.  My paper strip says Gingerbread Latte so I didn't feel like I needed another sentiment perhaps I will stamp on the inside of the card.  Do you do that sometimes?  I feel like it's a good way to personalize to your recipient.  I love this card and had so much fun making it.  Thank you to my sweet friend this was a definitely a delight and this die is staying on my desk. Ohhh and I'm grabbing me a Gingerbread Latte drink from my favorite coffee shop! Hugs!
