Sweet Birthday Wishes

Happy Saturday, Pink & Main friends! Our family has a few July birthdays, so I have been cranking out the birthday cards and wanted to share one of my latest Pink & Main creations.

Today, I am working with one of Pink & Main oldies, Birthday Wishes stamp set.

I paired up the Pink & Main stamps with some festive birthday prints. The background of the card is cut from print and a circle is cut out and attached to the card base. The fun Pink & Main sentiment is stamped in the empty space of the circle and colored in.  A few colorful diecut balloons are attached to the card with foam tape and twine. To complete the card, I added a few diecut stars on the card!

Do you love to create with Pink & Main stamps? We would love to see your projects! Please join the Pink & Main Creations Facebook Group and share your projects!

May is my birthday month! Even though the day was a few weeks ago, I am still celebrating!

 

I am Facebook friends with the talented Savannah O'Gwynn and she was super nice to leave me birthday wishes on my special day! In her message, she included a bible versus. What she didn't know, is that verse is in one of my favorite hymns. So I knew I needed to make a bible journaling page!

 

Savannah works with Paper Smooches, so I wanted to try to include some of their stamps on the page. I play along with their challenges when I get a free moment, so I went to see what the current challenge was and it is RAINBOWS! I knew there would be a way to incorporate all this into a page.

Here is what I came up with!

 

I love the clean and simple look, so I decided to use Paper Smooches Balloons Dies with papers from the colors of the rainbows. A fun sentiment is stamped towards the page. I also included the "Happy Birthday" stamp to complete the sentiment.

 

Thank you for stopping by today! Have a wonderful day!

DCWV September Sketch Challenge

Hello, everyone! I hope you are enjoy your weekend! It is a holiday weekend here in the States. And with the weather we are having, it is the perfect time to get some crafting done!

 

Today, I am sharing the card I made to go along with the DCWV September Stack-a-holic Sketch Challenge.

 

Here is the sketch:

 

 

 

And here is my take on the sketch:

 

 

 

As you can tell, I switched the postage stamps to hearts. I decided to use a variety of heart dies to create the fun design. I used different prints from the DCWV Hello Darlin' Stack. The card base is created out of a bright, fun print from the DCWV Marquee Stack. To finish the card, I stamped a simple Paper Smooches sentiment one the bottom right corner.

 

Thank you for stopping by! Have a wonderful day!

You're a Good Egg

It has been a lazy Saturday around the house, so I managed to sit down at my craft table and play along with the Paper Smooches Sparks Challenge.

 

I recently bought a few Paper Smooches stamp sets from JoAnn's. When I saw the current sketch challenge, an idea came to mind! It was time to break open the Wake Up stamp set.

Here is the sketch:

And here is my take:

 

 

This was an easy card to put together. In fact, so easy that my five year old daughter made one as well! The hardest part of this card (for me, anyway) was the coloring of the bacon. I continue my goal of improving my coloring skills.

Hello Fall with Paper Smooches!

I am so ready for FALL! So tired of the hot and muggy weather! Luckily, our first "cold front" is suppose to arrive overnight and our highs tomorrow will be in the 80's... I guess that will have to due for now!

 

So to get in the fall mood, I am bringing out the fall wreath and crafting with some fall stamps!

 

When I saw the sketch for the current Paper Smooches' SPARKS Designer Draft Challenge, I knew exactly what I wanted to do! Here is the sketch:
 

And here is my take of the sketch:

 

This card was so easy to create! If you have the patience to color. Which can be a challenge for me, but I managed:)

 

I grabbed two of the leaves images from the Paper Smooches' Gently Seasoned stamp set. Once the ink was dry, then the coloring began! To finish the leaves banners, I attached the twine (Trendy Twine's Orange Truffle). The last step was to create the simple sentiment. The sentiment was made using a stamp (also from the Gently Seasoned set) and some tiny alpha letter stickers.

 

I am entering this card in the Paper Smooches' SPARKS Designer Draft Challenge, as well as their Guest Designer search.

Spring is Here- Paper Smooches Style

Who is ready for Spring? I am sure everyone that has been dealing with snow! Here is next, Spring doesn't last long, so we enjoy it while it lasts!

Today's card was made for a Paper Smooches Be Our Guest challenge. I figured why not throw my name into the ring for a possible guest designer!

Here is my creation using Paper Smooches Gently Seasoned stamp set:

The tree is created using the solid dot stamps in the Gently Seasoned set. I randomly stamped the dots and added buttons to the tree. A simple sentiment is stamped onto a handmade banner.

Thank you for stopping by today! Hope it is warming up where you are!
