Yellow Flower Sympathy

I made a sympathy card for a friend. 

I heat embossed the big flower from Altenew's Inked Flora Stamp Set with white embossing powder, then painted the flower yellow and the background gray. The sentiment was heat embossed with gold embossing powder.




Here is a close up.

Purple Love

Happy Valentine's Day!!

I finally had a chance to use the newly brought love die cut to make a card for my dear friend. I first masked an area on my card front and then ink blended a background using a stencil, I then added the greeting on the middle of the ink blended area.



Here is a close up. 'Love' was die cut three times and stacked together. This is a quick and easy card to make.

Merry Hugs

Merry Christmas! 

I have been playing with the cute doggy die set from Spellbinders. Oh! I had so much fun! Here are a few cards I made with this die set. I hope my friends who received these cards will like them. Which little doggy do you like the best?

Sketched Christmas Tree

It's hard not to like a clean and simple Christmas card! And I am in love with this one. I used the Sketched Evergreen Stamp Set from Altenew to make this pretty card. I stamped this gorgeous tree using VersaMark Ink and then heat embossed using gold embossing powder. I chose a big and bold cream sentiment and used a gold border on the right to finish up the card.

You Are Delightful

I love the colors from the Altenew November Inspiration so much that I just made another card using the colors again.

I used the flower and leaves from Altenew's Beautiful Heart Stamp Set. I only stamped the two layers for the flower and leaves and didn't stamp the outlines for them. I think it is more interesting without the outlines. The sentiment was form one of my favorite Altenew's stamp sets, the Inked Floral Stamp Set which has not only the beautiful big and bold flowers, but also lots of lovely sentiments.

Here is the card. Hope you like it. Thank you for visiting.

Crown Bloom Thankful

The beautiful flowers from Altenew's Crown Bloom Stamp Set are so much fun to play with. Here, I stamped and die cut two flowers and a couple of leaves using the colors from the Altenew November Inspiration. The spotted background was inked green with Halftone stencil also from Altenew.

Bamboo Rose Thank you

Hello, I made a thank you card using Altenew's Filament Rose Die Set. I love these big, bold and pretty roses. I first die cut the roses from white watercolor paper and water colored them using pink for the roses and yellow for the leaves. The navy background card base was stamped with Rustic Linen Stamp Set using navy ink.
