Card With Friday Freebie

Happy Friday crafty friends,

I hope your week was a good one. Today I am sharing a cute and super easy card I created with this week’s Friday Freebie. This card fits perfectly with our monthly challenge. Be sure to head over to the challenge post and get the details so you can enter your creation!!! Some great prizes to win! Here is what I created.

The base is cut from some Bazzill brick cardstock. It is a really old cardstock that has little flecks of black in it. The finished size of the card is 4.25 x 5.5.

 

I cut out the flowers, stems and leaves as well as the fence. I layered the flowers and curled the petals. 

I used some pearl embellishments for the centers of my flowers and colored them with my Marigold marker.

I then printed out one of the sentiments from this week’s Friday Freebie and backed it with a small scalloped oval. I added just a bit of foam tape to give it a little lift.

Here’s a side view to try and show the scalloped edge of the card base. I then cut the mat from white cardstock. I then turned to my cuttlebug and used my quatrefoil embossing folder to give it some texture.

Here’s one last look at the completed card. It came together very quickly and very easily.

Here's the file set from PaperCraftingWorld.com

My School Ride Layout

Hey crafty friends,
A few days ago I shared over on the Pazzles Craft Room . Here is what I shared.

Here’s a look at the completed layout. I started with some paper from the DCWV School Days Pad as well as the Paper Studio Dots and Stripes Pad. I then chose some fun files from the Pazzles craft room including the craft room exclusive file I created, My School Ride.

Here’s a closer look at the school ride part of the title as well as the stop sign.



I then used another file from the craft room, Highway Vacation File. I used some inks to add a little dimension to the grass, clouds and sun.


And of course because it is National Stamping month, I used a couple of stamps from the Close To My Heart. The Ready, Set Go stamp set. I added a button and twine to finish the look.


Here is one last look at the layout. You can get all of these files when you subscribe to the Pazzles Craft Room. One of the best options for your crafty dollars! CLICK HERE for all the details.

New PCW Challenge and A FREE SVG

Hello crafty friends,
Thank you so much for stopping by today. I hope you had a great labor day weekend! Maybe some of you were able to get your “craft on”. If so, I want to invite you to join me for the NEW monthly challenge on the PaperCraftingWorld.com blog.

The theme is an “Anything Goes” challenge with an OPTIONAL Twist. You can include the twist or not…the choice is yours.

That’s it…easy peasy!  The challenges will typically be the first of the month through the end of the month.

Yep, Anything Goes with the Optional Twist to use a stamp. So to kick off the challenge, I made this quick and easy card.

Here's What You Can Win

AND a stamp set (Mailing available ONLY to USA address)
I will be sharing the picture of the Stamp Set On Sunday's POST!

Here is a look at my completed card. I used a kraft cardstock base. The size of the card is 4.25 x 5.5. I then cut a white mat and used my wood grain embossing folder from CTMH to add the wood texture to the mat.

I then cut the tag out in plain white cardstock. I sponged some ink to give it color. I used my Honey Ink Pad, Goldrush Ink Pad and Cranberry Ink Pads. I used the Always Grateful stamp set to stamp the tree image. I used my Cocoa Ink Pad for that.

I then cut the leaves out in white cardstock and then used some more ink to give them color. I used my Honey Ink Pad, My Pear Ink Pad and My Saddle Ink Pad.

I then used the Always Grateful Stamp set from Close To My Heart to stamp the sentiment. I used my Saddle Ink Pad for the color. I then turned to my silver sequins and used some of my Shin Han Markers to color in some of the sequins. I used my Marigold Marker, Cherry Pink Marker, Mahogany Marker and Vivid Green Marker.

Here is one last look at the finished card. I used a little foam tape to give the tag, leaves and sentiment just a little lift.

Pazzles Craft Room Scalloped Edge Card

Happy Friday crafty friends,
Today I am sharing a card I created for the Pazzles craft room recently. Here it is.

Here’s a look at my completed card. I started by using the Pazzles Craft Room exclusive cut file Scalloped Deco Edge Card set. I cut out the base in white cardstock.
For the blue and patterned gold foiled paper, I used the Craft Smith Indigo Gold paper pad



Here’s a view of the pretty flowers. I simply cut them and layered them and added just a soft curl to the petals. I used some foam tape to give them a little lift. For the centers, I used some gold gems from Close to my heart.



Here’s a closer look at the decorative edge. I used some pearl gems from Paper Studio to add some soft accents. I also used a little more foam tape  between the two layers and under the sentiment to give it all a little more dimension.


Here is one final look. To finish it off, I added a pretty satin ribbon bow. The card came together very quickly and easily.

Sharing A Smile and a Card

Happy Monday crafty friends,
Today I am sharing a smile and a card. I created this fun card with the new Cricut Artistry Cartridge and the Cricut Design Space software. I used some pretty Blossom paper and embellishments from Close To My Heart.


Here’s a look at my completed card. The card base is made from white cardstock and is a standard A4 size (4.25 x 5.5) I started by designing the card in the Cricut Design Space software. Once I had laid it all out, I decided on my papers and went to cutting.


Here’s a closer look at the pretty flowers. I used some more of the pretty blossom paper to cut the flowers from. I curled the petals and added some foam tape to give them a little lift. I added some fun Aqua dots to the centers.


Here’s a closer look at the Smile sentiment. I stamped it with my Lagoon ink pad. I added a couple more of the fun aqua dots and added some foam tape under the bottom white layer.
