Forever




Here is a card I made for the Featured Stamper challenge at Splitcoast today. I went with a clean and simple design of some daisies against the yellow and blue. So pretty, I think. My design was inspired by Suen, who is today's featured stamper. This image is from the newly released The Beary Best from There She Goes. Most of the image from this set are adorable bears, but here is a totally different look from this set. I LOVE the sentiments from this set.

You Inspire Me


Here is a card I made for the LOVEFEST at Splitcoast - this challenge hosted by My Favorite Things, to make a card that will make someone's day. I also made this card for the sketch challenge from last Wednesday. Trying to keep up with those - they are always such great sketches.



I used MFT My Favorite Sentiments for my card today. I sewed around the edges (haven't done that in a while) and added a pretty flower made using several layers of die cut flowers. A button center from the matching cardstock was made using a button die (love that!). I also used a third die to make the flowers leaves. Easy card today and a little taste of spring. I am hopeful here in the northeast!

Supplies Used:
Stamps - MFT My Favorite Sentiments
Ink - SU Rose Red
Paper - Bazzill CS, MME
Accessories - MFT Die-namics (Pretty Posies, Button Quartet, Rolled Roses), twine, ribbon, sewing machine

Love You Always


Here is a card I made for my cousin, who is getting married next month. I found this absolutely adorable digital image from Wee Stamps. I just love coloring images like this and couldn't resist getting this one for my cousin. These two are so sweet. The sentiment is from Taylored Expressions.

I also made this card for one of the LOVEfest challenges at Splitcoast, a sketch challenge hosted by Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps, shown here:

MFT Sketch Challenge



Here is my card for the Wednesday Sketch challenge at My Favorite Things. I was so inspired by this beautiful paper from MME and from this most appropriate sentiment from MFT Clearly Sentimental about Friendship. The combination was perfect for this card.

Here's the sketch from MFT:

This card was made using several MFT Die-namics. I used the Large Royal rose rolled flower Die-namic to make my single rose and the Pretty Posie to make the center with a brad. I used the flourish Die-namic on some grey cardstock to mimic the designer paper. Finally, I used the Vertical Greeting turned horizontally to use for my sentiment. I punched holes in each end with a slot punch for the ribbon detail.
Hope you enjoy!!
