Congrats Graduate

Today starts a new challenge at Addicted to Stamps and More. It's time for our die cuts and stencils challenge. You can use a die cut, a stencil or both on your project.

To make my card, I started with a white top folding A2 card base, a black panel for a mat and a foilable panel for the background. 

I stamped out the balloons and then die cut them with the balloon die. I used alpha dies for the high school letters.

AAA Cards is turning 10!

We want to celebrate with you as it's not everyday you turn TEN.

Some are only available to the country of residence due to postage, so please make sure when you do the card link up over on the AAA Cards challenge blog to add your  country letters, say Maaike-NL. You can also find all the deets and prizes there as well. 

I am offering a prize pack as well (US only). be sure to upload your project to the AAA blog and leave some love here and there. 

Our challenge is anything goes so I hop you will play along.

To make this simple birthday card, I started with a white top folding A2 card base and a white panel cut to the same size. The stamp set I used is by The Greetry along with the die. 

Friends

Today starts a new challenge at Addicted to CAS. Jaydee is our host and she chose the code word friends. Speaking of friends, I have been at my friends house for a week and we have been crafting together. There are no friends like crafty friends!

To make my card, I started with a white top folding A2 card base and a white panel. I used an airmail border and hello stencils both from The Greetery and the friend from a Hero Arts set. 

AAA Cards -Game 230 Moodboard.

A new challenge is up at AAA Cards  and it's a mood board. I absolutely love mood board challenges and this one is so pretty! I hope you will play along.  

This card is also for Day 23 of my Christmas Series. 

To make this card I started with a top folding white card base and a white panel. I used the Glistening Snowflakes set again but this time used the circle snowflake stamp and die. I embossed it with white and then nk blended over it and cut t out. I added the cord by using one of the other snowflakes and embossed it in gold and then covered it up with the snowflake circle. I turned it into an ornament by adding a bow from The Greetery. To finish the card I added the merry word die by Memory Box.

Simply Christmas

It's time for a new challenge at Make the Cards Challenge This week is a color challenge that is perfect for a traditional Christmas card. We would love for you to play along. if you do and you post to instagram, be sure to tag #mtcc45and #makethecardschallenge so we can see your project.

For my card I cased a card by my friend Laurie Willison for a simple Christmas card. It has been awhile since I had seen her card and I was thinking I used a different sentiment but gmta I guess because I ended up using the same one.

To create this card I started with a top folding white card base and a seperate piece of white cardstock for the window. 

I stamped the tree directly on the base and then added the window popped up with foam strips. 

To finish the crd I added the die cut sentiments.

To create this card I started with a white top folding card base and three colors of The foiled papers I used  Ruby/Gold Glossy for the flowers,  Emerald/Emerald Starstruck for the leaves,  and Copper/Gold for the pot. 

To give more dimension to the flowers and the pot, I adhered the foiled paper on a piece of cardstock and popped them up with foam tape.

Happy Independence Day

Quick post to wish all of my American friends a Happy Independence Day you ungrateful colonists lol. I couldn't resist it. 

I am grateful to be an American and I always have my family over to celebrate the 4th but this year my youngest daughter will be leaving to serve our country in Turkey for a year without her family, so I am extremely grateful for her service. 

To make my invites this year I used a stencil set by The Greetery and the word die by My Favorite Things.

Celebrate

I received my order from The Greetery just in time to make a graduation card that I need for a friend. 

This is a super quick posts to show their products in hopes you will go check them out
