Cupcake Tags

Good Morning!  Today is my day to post on the SumMore Fun blog.  Instead of a card, which is my usual creation, I decided to think outside of the box and make tags this week!  They use the sweet Raisin Boat Teatime Treats stamp set.
I started by stamping the images and sentiments from the Teatime Treats stamp set onto white cardstock.  For the images, I used my Brother Scan N Cut to cut them out and painted them with Sparkling Unicorn Spit.
The tags I used are Large Tag-Its in Lemon and Kraft.  I added various washi tape to them, Trendy Page Dots, Raspberry Cupcake Trendy Twine, and Grape Fizz Trendy Twine.
The cupcake circle was popped up with foam tape onto the tag and the sentiment was simply glued on.  The finishing touch was Pearl Pen dots in Gold, Glitter Pink, and Pearl Pink.
I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!

Chalkboard Style Congrats Cards

I promised you another day of graduation cards, so here they are!  I made them in a very similar style as yesterday's card, but with a different feel to them.
The papers are from DCWV's DIY Chalk Party stack, which I love for school themed projects.  The stamp set is Pink and Main's Congrats and I stamped it with VersaMark ink and heat embossed with white powder.  I used GMD slash stitched oval dies and popped them up with foam tape. 
Embellishments include Totally Lemon Trendy Twine (first card), white seam binding (second card), and Gold Pearl Pen dots.
I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!

Feminine Congrats Card

This is going to be a week for me to post all the graduation cards I made this year :)  If you missed yesterday's post, you can see it here, plus I will have another graduation card tomorrow to share.
 I really, REALLY loved how this card turned out!  The gorgeous papers are from DCWV's Hello Darlin' stack.  The stamp set is Pink and Main's Congrats and I stamped it with VersaFine Onyx Black and heat embossed with clear powder.  I used three different kinds of oval dies and popped them up with foam tape.  Embellishments include white seam binding and GMD Rose Garden enamel dots.
I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!

Happy Graduation Cards

Good Morning!  Today is my day to post on the SumMore Fun blog.  The cards I am sharing with you use the Victorine Originals Happy Graduation stamp.  There is also a larger Happy Graduation stamp with the same design HERE.  I love the elegance of it!
 I stamped the Happy Graduation stamp using my stamp platform and VersaFine Onyx Black ink.  I heat embossed it with clear powder and colored in the image.  For this red one, the red is just Sharpie marker and the yellow is Sparkling Unicorn Spit that I painted on undiluted.
 I made other cards as well in different colors, only changing the color of Sparkling Unicorn Spit for the had and ribbon.
It was fun to change things up with these cards.  I embellished with various solid twists of Trendy Twine.  The star die cut is from the GMD double stitched in and out cut star dies.  Patterned papers are from DCWV's Dots, Stripes, and Plaids and Seaside Yacht stacks.
Note:  The hat and ribbon on this were actually painted with Dolly Firebird Unicorn Spit, but it came out  as a bright pink on the white paper instead of red.

I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!

Trendy Bakers Twine ~ Sweet 16 Card

Hello everyone!  Today is my day to post on the Trendy Twine blog.  My niece recently celebrated her sweet 16th birthday, and here is the card that I made for her, complete with Pinkberry Sorbet Trendy Twine.
 I started with papers from DCWV's Hello Darlin' and Glitzy Glitter stacks.  I used two manual dies, GMD Corner Flower Die and GMD Double Stitch In & Out Hexagon Die as well as cutting the 16 out on my Silhouette Cameo.  Before adhering the card front to the base, I added Pinkberry Sorbet Trendy Twine to two of the corners.
 To add some glitz and glam to the card, I added Raspberry Cupcake sequins and Black Pearl Pen to the corners.

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

Trendy Bakers Twine~Butterfly Tag

Hello everyone!  Today is my day to post on the Trendy Twine blog with a tag and twine post.  Purples were calling my name this time ;)
I started with a Lavender Large Tag-It and glued die cuts from GMD butterfly and vine set onto it.  The sentiment from APB Choose Happy stamp set was stamped using Versafine Onyx Black ink.  At the top of the tag, I added a Pink Midnight Trendy Page Dot and Grape Fizz Trendy Twine.  The coordinating Grape Fizz sequins were a perfect finishing touch.

Mother's Day Quilt Card

Good Morning and Happy Mother's Day to all you moms out there!  Today I am posting on the SumMore Fun blog.  The card I am sharing with you uses the Raisin Boat Marvelous Mom stamp set.  This set is one that I fell in love with for the INSIDE sentiments it has.
 As you can see, the outside of my card simply has the word "Mom" stamped on it from the Marvelous Mom stamp set.  I wanted the whole card to have a simple cozy feel to it :)  Other products used on the card front include a SDS Quilt Mini SVG (also part of the retired SVG Attic Quilt Patch Minnies set), DCWV Country Floral cardstock, vellum, square lace die, Twisted Lime Trendy Twine, Skittles embellishments, and a scissors charm.  Adhesives include ATG, Scotch Tacky Glue, and mini Glue Dots.
 Now check out the inside with the awesome sentiments that are included in the Marvelous Mom stamp set.  Perfect, right?!  No need to try to think up the perfect thing to write to your mom, this stamp set has you covered!
 Here is a close up of the Marvelous Mom stamp set so you can see all the amazing sentiments it has in it.

I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!

Success Index Graduation Card

Good Morning!  Today is my day to post on the SumMore Fun blog.  The card I am sharing with you uses the Raisin Boat Opportunity Knocks stamp set.  I made this one for my oldest son who is having his 6th grade graduation next week!
I used chalk paper to stamp the Opportunity Knocks stamps onto with VersaMark ink.  I then embossed with white embossing powder.  It turned out great!  All the papers are from the DCWV DIY Chalk Party stack.  I did use Tombow Xtreme adhesive on this card because the chalk papers are a little tougher to keep stuck together.
I added some Totally Lemon Trendy Twine around the center band, plus made a tassel out of it as well!  A few GMD New Years sparkle enamel dots and the card was finished!
I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!

Trendy Bakers Twine~Graduation Gable Box

Hello everyone!  Today is my day to post on the Trendy Twine blog.  With graduation right around the corner, I decided to make this gift box for a small graduation gift.
I started with a Small Kraft Gable Box and added papers to all the sides.  The patterned paper is from DCWV's Hello Darlin' stack.  I added Pinkberry Sorbet Trendy Twine around the front paper panel with Lineco Adhesive and a precision tip glue bottle.  It works like a charm!
The Pink Tag-It was stamped on with graduation stamps from Raisin Boat's Opportunity Knocks stamp set.  I added some white gel pen accents, a Kraft Brown Trendy Page DotPinkberry Sorbet Trendy Twine, and Raspberry Cupcake sequins.  I also added a bow of Pinkberry Sorbet Trendy Twine, and Raspberry Cupcake sequins on the bottom of the box as well.  To finish it off, I tied a knot of reversible satin ribbon from the Pretty In Pink set to the box handle.
Here is a close up of May's featured Trendy Twine:

Rocket Grad Card

Good Morning!  Happy first day of May!  Today is my day to post on the SumMore Fun blog.  The card I am sharing with you uses the Raisin Boat Opportunity Knocks stamp set.  It is a great set for graduations and other school related projects.
This card started with watercolor paper and did an acrylic block watercolor technique (you can see a video with a how-to here) and Distress Inks in Fired Brick, Mustard Seed, and Salty Ocean.  Once dry, I stamped the rocket and sentiment with Versafine Onyx Black ink.  I used my embossing buddy on the top of the paper, then stamped the stars with VersaMark and heat embossed them with white powder.  I added doodles with black and white gel pens.  The only embellishments were Pearl Pens in black, blue, and red.  Products also used on this card include ATG, solid colored cardstock, and GMD Stitched rectangle dies.
I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!
