Fruit Stand and Avery Elle

Hello!  I am sharing a card that can be seen over on the Avery Elle blog today using Fruit Stand.

Fruit Stand is a perfect set for creating an adorable scene for spring or summer.  I know I have many memories of visiting fruit/vegetable stands with my mom as a kid!  I paired the cute images from Fruit Stand with the Picket Fence Elle-ments.  

Thanks for sharing a part of your day with me!

Happy Easter with Pretty Pink Posh

Happy Easter!  I have had this card made for a while just waiting to share it today.  Who doesn't love a cute shaker card??  

I knew I had to use this adorable kiddo all dressed up in the bunny costume from Easter Friends!  I colored my images (bunny, basket, and eggs) all with Copics and cut them out with coordinating dies.  I then set work to make my shaker.  

After adhering some plaid paper over a white panel, I used a standard circle die to make the shaker opening in the panel.  Using the Scallop Circle Dies, I created a white frame for my shaker.  I saved the purple circle I cut out to be used to layer along with a scrap of white polka dot vellum (this created my background for the shaker).  To fill the shaker, I added the colored/die cut eggs along with seed beads in Lilac, Petunia, and Hydrangea from Pretty Pink Posh.  

I added my images with foam adhesive and a hand cut vellum banner with the sentiment stamped in StazOn black ink.

Thank you so much for sharing a part of your holiday with me!

SFYTT with Reverse Confetti

 

Happy Easter!!!  I am sharing a card using the current SFYTT (Sketch For You to Try) over at the Reverse Confetti blog.  Check out the SFYTT post......HERE for all the details!

Since today is Easter, I thought it only fitting to use the bunny image from More Than Jellybeans as my focal point of the sketch.  I used a retiring Confetti Cut, Tassel, as the grass and as part of the sketch!  I've layered my image onto a die cut Lacy Scallop Circles Confetti Cut.  To tie the card together, I layered a piece of polka dot paper from True Love onto a piece of Dark Roast Cardstock.

Now the best part is.......there is always a winner every month!  Here are the details:

The winner will receive a $20 gift certificate to the Reverse Confetti store and claim the title of ‘Fetti Fave. The winner of SFYTT will be posted on the Reverse Confetti blog on the 30th of each month.

Today's stamp set feature is really not in the above categories but in the FUN/CUTE category!  This Little Piggy is an adorable pig set with matching dies.  I've adhered a piece of pattern paper from Sugar & Spice to a top folding notecard.  For my focal point, I trimmed down one of the pieces of pattern paper from one of the paper collections that had the ombre look to use as a sky.  I added my piggies (Copic colored)  with foam adhesive and my stamped sentiment (on a banner from Gift Tag Die).  I also included a die cut heart from Heart Journal Card Die.

Homemade with Love with Right at Home

 

Welcome to the Homemade with Love week using Right at Home products!

I just returned home from a crafty weekend filled not only with papercrafting but crafting in general.    It's always fun to create handmade gifts with our papercrafting supplies.  

I created a mini burlap banner using mostly Taylored Expressions felt (because it is fantastic quality) and dies from Right at Home.  The banner is nothing fancy but will give some sunshine to a friend of mine who is going through a rough time.  I started by trimming 3 rectangles of burlap.  I didn't back the burlap with anything before working with it as its not going to be handled much once its hung.  

Using dies from the Find the Beauty Die Set, I die cut various blooms and "leaves" from colors of felt.   Once cut, I arranged them on my burlap rectangles how I wanted them.  To attach them to the burlap, I simply stitched them using French Knots and a few stitches on the back side.  I love the simplicity of only using French Knots!  I also die cut the "hello" word die from Find the Beauty Die Set using black felt and used Glossy Accents to adhere to my middle banner.  Once done, I simply attached my three banners to thick twine with mini white clothes pins.

The new Schoolscape SugarCut, I die cut several pieces in different colors and paper pieced this adorable school scene.  I added a Zig Zag Stitched Circle frame and layered over a piece of pattern paper from Life is a Carnival.  The sentiment is from another new set this month called Class Act.  

*************************************

Class Act is a new set that when paired with the new Teacher SugarCut is just adorable!  My image was Copic colored as well as the chalkboard.  I white heat embossed the sentiment and added the Teacher SugarCut die cut with red and white.  Everything was layered over a Zig Zag Stitched Rectangle die cut from Countryside Charm paper pad.
