Create Along With Us: September 2015

"Christmas time is here" well not yet but if you want to make anything for Christmas it's a good time to get started! =) I have been enjoying seeing PTI's new stamps this month. Among a ton of amazing projects was this beauty from Betsy:

I wondered if I could create a 'folk' Christmas card and just had to try!!:

I used the 'Wee Folk' set and the 'Clipsters' set.

I probably should have been doing some work, but I had so much fun =)

I think the top card needs a little something more too...maybe some stitching?

I hope you have a wonderful day!

Create Along With Us: August 2015

Inspiration all over and the PTI release is not over yet! 

When I saw Lizzy Jones' card I knew I wanted to try that neat die-cut window look!

And aren't those pumpkins so cute!

Here's my inspiration:

and here's my card:

I did some 'smooshing' then used the bird stamps and dies from the 'Wee Folk' set to create the card. I liked how one of Lizzy's die-cut pumpkins went off the edge, so I had to try that too.

Then I finished it up with the 'Praying For You' set.

Thanks for the inspiration!

Have a great day!

Count down till homeschool starts: 5 days!

Hopefully that's not the end of my card making days! =)

Make It Monday #219: Texture Kissing

Texture Kissing

What a challenge! It is a neat technique but I had to make a lot of bowls before I got a good one =) I wanted a purple bowl...but the purple was too juicy. So Sumer Sunrise we went:

I used polka-dot basis and Bowl of Sunshine

I hope to try this technique some more in the future, what a great way to make your stamps do more!

Just finished a week of Vacation Bible School and am looking forward to a few weeks at home before it's time to start school...eeks! Summer where did you go?

Have a great night!

MAKE IT MONDAY #218

WATERCOLORS WITH DIE CUT STENCILS

I was camping all weekend and just watched the video this afternoon - it looked so fun I had to try it out! So I got the kiddos to bed and quickly gave it a shot. 

 

Next time I may try a differnt stencil material, mine leaked a little under the edges.

That will have to be another day though =)

Good night.

I loved it so much I made the cards a week early. 

It was so fun I had a hard time stopping=)

Purple, florals, gold, and butterflies. What girl could resist =)

I'm excited to see what everyone has made!

Hope you have a great day!
