Thanks for looking. HAGD! 

Cricut border with added Christmas trees card

This border is a Cricut cut with a rhinestone in the center. Then I added Christmas tree die cuts. Some of them have been inked with distress ink. Some of them are also upcycled wallpaper samples. I did add dimensional adhesive behind two of them. Then I cut brown scraps to make the tree trunks. Thanks for looking. 

Floral Fridy Spanner Christmas card

I love CRAFT ROULETTE because it teaches me to go outside my comfort zone. This week the wheel stopped on a fun fold card called a Spanner card. It has three folds for the recipient to open. This is what the card looks like when you take it out of the envelope. Pretty.

P.S. CRAFT ROULETTE Airs on YouTube every Friday night at 7:10 EST. Here are the details in case you’re interested in checking it out. 

So the border on the bottom is made up of a horizontal strip of Sizzix opulent paper. Layered on top of it is a border from an old paper pack by Die Cuts with a View. The doily in the center is by Stampin Up. It’s hard to see but I adhered tiny red flowers behind the green flower that form a wreath on top of the doily. All flowers are by Prima.

Next, you open the card and you see an embossing folder by Darice and the wreath on top by Jolee’s. It was placed on the back of the white tag to cover it up. 

On the last page/ panel, I added red opulent paper on both sides. When I did that I accidentally bent the paper so I added a sticker by EK Success to cover it up. 

I put a vertical border strip by Die Cuts with a View on the left of the white cardstock and finished with a sentiment by Stampendous.

. I’d never heard of a spanner card so I went to Split Coast Stampers for a tutorial. Tada!

(So I’m noticing that these links give you a “redirect notice”. Tell me if you get that too.)

Thanks so much for stopping by.

Floral Friday Autumn like colored cards

Background patterned paper by Cosmo Cricket. The patterned paper used in the Sizzix die cuts is by Papertrey Ink. The brown paper is a scrap and the gold letters, no clue. 

The second card has green opulent paper by Sizzix on the bottom half. The center cardstock is a dry embossed border by Cuttlebug. I don’t use those nearly enough but I should because when I do, I really like the way they look. The tag is an upcycled item from my stash. The sentiment is by Just Rite. I wish I could remember how I got the ombré color on the sentiment. It is looks great.

The above card started out as a birthday card but the sentiment was hard to read. (See below)

You can see why I changed it.

Thanks for looking.

December Calendat Layout Pink Christmas

Before:

Above is the before and below is the after. I felt like it needed something more. I could have done a title but didn’t think of it. The embellishment isn’t that big of a difference but it enabled me to use one of the many baby stickers that I have. The patterned paper is pink color that matches two of their tops. 

The borders are by K and Co.

And after:

Thanks for stopping by.

F is Fletcher and A is Annora. It’s a joke their Dad has with hubby and friends. I did a train card that is linked right here
