SheetLoad of Anniversary Blessings Cards

Hello all! I am back with another SheetLoad of cards. This time it is anniversary cards. They were created with the May 2024 SheetLoad of Cards sketch and papers from the DCWV Romantic Life stack.
I kept the cards pretty simple. The "anniversary" sentiment was from GMD Happy die coordinating word stamps and stamped in VersaFine Onyx Black. The word "blessings" was created in SCAL and cut out of adhesive vinyl with my Silhouette Cameo
Silver glitter cardstock was around the center focal point, which added sparkle and shine! Adhesives used include ATG, and Bearly Art precision glue.
I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!

Trendy Bakers Twine~He Is Risen Card

Hello all! It is time for another post for the Trendy Twine blog! We have been getting some sunny days lately, and this card captures some of that cheerfulness. The featured Trendy Twine of the month on this card is Bubblegum Taffy.
To begin with, I adhered patterned papers from Echo Park's Have Faith collection onto a kraft cardstock mat. I then used a small hole punch to add 2 holes in each corner to weave Bubblegum Taffy Trendy Twine through. I thought it created a fun border and great visual interest. For the focal point, I used an oval die with white cardstock and a scalloped oval die with vellum to create the background. I then die cut the Cottage Cutz He Is Risen die cross and words with navy blue cardstock and glued them to the vellum with Bearly Art glue. The top layer of the cross was cut from white glitter cardstock and also glued ontp the cross base. I used foam tape to pop up the oval onto the card front. For extra shimmer, I ran around the outer edge of the scalloped circle with Clear Glitter Wink of Stella, then added Cotton Candy Sequins in the four corners of the card with Glue Dots glue squares

Here's what I used from Annie's Paper Boutique:

If you don't need a full spool, you can find Bubblegum Taffy in our Aqua Sampler  PLUS Aqua Licorice, Aqua Midnight, and Twisted Gumball. Each twist is ten yards in length and comes on a wooden clothespin.

I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!

Golf 80th Birthday Card

Hello all! I am back to share a card that I created last year, but didn't have time to share it yet! It was a requested theme and since no one in my family golfs, I didn't have any craft supplies that pertained to that theme. Pinterest to the rescue for ideas that used basic craft supplies!
Patterned papers are from the Pebbles Lakeside paper pad. The green oval was die cut with a Cottage Cutz stitched oval die, then I used a circle punch for both the hole in the green and the golf ball. I used Totally Kraft Trendy Twine to make the flag pole. The 80 was stamps from the Craftin Desert Divas Bring on the Cake stamp set and the sentiment was from Whimsy Stamps Boy Talk set. Both were stamped with Versafine Onyx Black.
I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!
