Water...

When it is 115 degrees outside, you think about water...

So today I created this simple card for a birthday,
using a watering can for my main image.
Hope you like it.




Have a wonderful creative day!

Birthday Fun

For this card I used one of my favorite birthday sets...."Hey Cupcake"
 I also used washi tape in my design because there is so many things you can do with it,
and it always makes a card look special.





Have a great day!

Sweetest Birthday EVER!


I created this card using the A Muse Studio stamp set Hey Cupcake!  
There are so many great cards that can be created using this stamp set....
it is simply amazing!




The cupcake wrapper was stamped on bubblegum paper, and cut out.  
I then added sickles to add a bit of sparkle.


Have a sweet day!

Happy Anniversary!

As you have probably noticed, I love simple cards. 
I just don't think you need to have all sorts of materials on your card, to make them special.
In creating this card, I wanted the wine glasses to be your focus.
But I felt that I needed a bottom border to ground the card.
Thus, this is what I created....




I cut out the wine glasses, and colored them with copics,
and to make the wine sparkle added the spika glitter pen.
I wanted the glasses to "jump" out of the card...
so I used the foam adhesive to give them dimension. 
Then I slid the gingham cardstock within the scalloped sheet 
and adhered it to the paper using the eyelets.  


Simple, but effective.  Just the way I like it.  


Cheers!
