Happy Anniversary

Back again with a gorgeous card for you.

Well, I think it is gorgeous anyway.

Just love the color and the sponging.

I punched out the heart on the pink paper, 

then stamped vines on a piece of scrap paper.

I glued the vines behind the open heart.

Added some rhinestones, ribbon rose and some twine

and perfect for anyone.

Border trim is punched with the lacy Stampin Up border punch.

Then sponge it with pink ink.

Makes a pretty border.

Hope to see you again.  

Love is for the Birds

Aren't these birds the cutest. and love the hearts.

I made this card an anniversary card. Love the sentiment.

Perfect for a couple love birds that are having an anniversary.

The love birds are from There She Goes Rubber Stamps along with the sentiment also. This is a great set of stamps. You can find them on the right side of my blog and click the name Jessica Knutsen. She is the owner of There She Goes. If you would like a set of these stamps, let me know. I can get them for you.

I colored the image with Tombow Markers.

My color combo is pink, yellow and blue. Totally awesome together.

Come back again to see more of my creations.

Thanks for stopping by...

Birthday Wishes

I wanted to make a clean and simple card with lots of color.

I think this one will fit the challenge. 

I used Kraft paper and some design paper to accent the flowers.

I stamped the flowers, colored them with Tombow Markers and then cut them out.

Then I painted the flowers with glossy effects. Then I punched the corners on the top of the card.

Added some ribbon and done.

Stamps: There She Goes (Dance)
Paper: My Stash
Embellishments: Corner Punch, Ribbon and Brads.

Thank you for stopping in today and hope you will come back again soon.

Wishing you the best of everything

Love this clean and simple card.

I think it looks very elegant, and the rhinestone really set it off. The rhinestones didn't show up very well in this picture, but they are gorgeous. I don't know if you noticed the 3 rhinestones at the bottom along with the 3 under the word Everything. Maybe pearls would have shown up better. I will have to try them the next time.  

Inside the card, I added more Design Paper with hearts and a Birthday sentiment. 

Design Paper is from Creative Imaginations,

          the Marah Johnson Collection,

Stamp is from There She Goes

Martha Stewart Heart Punch

Old Olive Ink

Diamond Rhinestones.

Thank you for stopping by.  And see you the next time.

Thank You (Strawberry)

This is so gorgeous, love the red color.

What do you think of the background paper? Of course you can see that I just stamped the Thank You stamp all over the front of the card.

The strawberry I colored with Tombow markers and added the glossy effects to make it shinny.  Punched the circles for the layered look. I added pop ups on the circles to raise it off the card. I like to poked holes in the scallop green circle, it gives the card an additional look. Gorgeous little mint green brads are in the center of the flowers. Isn't this card so cute. Very colorful.

I have seen the background stamping on There She Goes Blog. Jessica does a lot of backgrounds with her stamps. I think it makes a pretty card using the background stamps. A lot cheaper than Designer Paper. Thanks Jessica for the inspiration on background stamping.

Birthday Wishes

Love the colors of this card, the purple ribbon is so pretty with the black paper.

I stamped two of the flowers with the purple ink and then one in the middle with black.

Added some diamond rhinestone here and there and wow so pretty.

Also I did the border with the scalloped Stampin Up border punch. Love how this turned out.

Have a beautiful day

Finally getting back to posting.

I just love this cutie, and isn't this so cute.
This Bear is a stamp from There She Goes Rubber Stamp Company.
The set is called Back in 10. Isn't that a perfect Title for this set.
I colored the bear image with Prisma Watercolor Pencils. This give the image a soft look.
The sentiment is from Hero Arts Company.
The Martha Stewart Border Punch used on the bottom of the card went perfect to finish off this card.
Only thing left to add was the ribbon and just about all my cards have ribbon on them. This is Royal Blue Grosgrain Ribbon.

My Friend

Love this DP, it has the prettiest butterflies on it. As soon as I seen it, I had to buy some and make a card with it. This is one of the prettiest stamps from There She Goes, called What's Up Buttercup? Don't you think so? I used a very soft green card stock and matched it up with Sage. Love those two colors together. I really wanted to use prisma pencils, because they blend so well, to color the buttercup image. I love how it turned out. Couldn't let this card go with out ribbon, I added a yellow polka dot bow on it. * *

Thank You for stopping in

See you the next time

Ice cream anyone?

With the weather we have been having, the ice cream cone sure looks good.

I tried to make the colors look so yummy.

(Chocolate, vanilla and strawberry).

I just love this stamp set. Each scoop is cut out separately and was the chocolate one ever hard to see to cut out. The other ones were really easy to cut out. But all in all, it was very easy to glue together. I popped it up so it would stand off the white paper.

Cute huh?

Happiness Grows (another card I won)

Isn't this the cutest. So unique... Love the purple, green and Kraft colors in this card. And the ribbon, awesome. Cute idea. This card was made by Gretchen or Wendy from the There She Goes Stamps. I get these 2 lady's mixed up and normally choose there cards when I win a card.

* I think the adding the (look of a packet of seeds) packet of seeds is extra special. I guess when the season is in, you could really add a packet of seeds to this card. And check out all the paper piercing that was done on this card. That is a lot of work for sure.

Wonderful card. I think I will try to make this card for one of my workshops. I am sure the ladies will enjoy making this card and then giving it to someone special. *

Stamps was from There She Goes. Check out the web site for this company, it has some awesome clear stamps. I own several sets of the stamps and they are sharp and easy to clean stamps.

Another Fabulous Card (I won this card at Christmas time)

I think this is the cutest card, love the colors and the little birds.

I won it so long ago, I am not sure if it was Wendy or Gretchen that created this card.

Yep, it was Christmas time when I won this card.

I want the bird stamp really bad, it has been on my wish list for so long.

I guess I am just going to have to break down and buy it.

There is a lot of other sentiments with the stamps that I wouldn't have to wait until Christmas next year to use it.

This cute bird stamp is from There She Goes Clear Stamps. Check the website out for more awesome clear stamps.

Look at the gorgeous card that I won

Isn't this the prettiest card ever.

I won this card on the There She Goes Blog. It was made by Wendy Bond.

I just love this card.

The colors are so perfect. And the ribbon is so cute.

Stop in and check out the There She Goes Blog sometime, there are several new stamp set that I hope to purchase soon.

Another She's A Lady

This card is done the same as the other one, just using different pencils and paper. I don't know what one I like the best. I just love this stamp set. And this stamp set comes with a poodle, plus shopping bags and a purse. So I want to do the poodle with this lady next.

She's A Lady

Don't you just love this Lady....

I think she's pretty and so elegant looking.

She is colored with pencils and blended with OMS. The gold trim done with a gel pen. I layered the image on the Label 4 Nestie. The background mat was done with an Embossing Folder called Vines. The paper is from my stash. I added a band of white and gold ribbon and added pearls on the side.

Better Late Than Never

Need a fast "missed your birthday" card. Try this one, it is quick and easy. So cute and adorable. Love the snail and dragonfly. I colored the snail's head with prisma colored pencils and then used a blender pen. Cut out the snail shell with designer paper and attached it to the snail. How easy is that. The inside has the sentiment " I wanted your birthday to last longer."

Happiness

This card is my favorite card of all. This is from Jessica, There She Goes (Stamp Sets). I seen this card on Jessica's blog and had a chance to win it and guess what, I won it. So I had to have this card as one of the cards in my last workshop. Everyone loved it. Cutting all the flowers out and popping them up was a lot of work, but oh so pretty. This is the card that I made with the set of stamps I purchased from Jessica and you can see someone got a black marker on the left side of it, but oh well, it still is a nice card. I used the Cuttlebug folder for the mat and then the Stampin Up Top Note for the next 2 mats. I used Tombow Markers for the pink and blue flowers. The lavendar color is the color of the paper. It was nice not to have to color it lavendar, one step less to do. This card is worth all the labor a person puts into it. I just think this card is so pretty.
