Gorgeous Posies Thank You Card

I love making cards so I created this card for Kylie Bertucci's International Blog Highlights for November 2020. If you want me to do a video and post it on YouTube, please leave me a comment and I will record one for you. 

I made my own designer series paper with stamps and ink to create this card. I added a bit of ribbon, a sentiment, rhinestone basic jewels, and leaves from the Forever Gold Laser-cut Specialty Paper.

Light Me Home Christmas Card

Here is another Christmas card using the Light Me Home Stamp Set. This time I combined it with the Poinsettia Petals Bundle and the Garden Gateway Dies.

Have fun crafting and have a blessed day.

Gather Together Greetings

 I created this card for the Thanksgiving season because I love the fall colors. I have been wanting to use this stamp and die set ever since I saw it in the catalog.  I love the way the leaf dies cut and emboss at the same time. There is very little actual stamping on this card. I tried to make it as simple as possible. Have fun creating and have a blessed day!

Rainbow Glimmer Cards

 

I was trying to think of ways to use the Rainbow Glimmer paper and the Ornate Borders Dies. This is the card I came up with. You can use any sentiment you want because they all work well with this design. I found that the only hard part was lining up the die that cuts around the edge of the flowers after you use the die to cut out them. You have to get it pretty close, but not so close that you cut your flowers and leaves off. You can click on the link below that will take you to my YouTube video tutorial showing you how I put this card together.  Have a blessed day and have fun creating.
