Happy Tuesday! I have another Simon card for you today!
Last week we revealed the June Card Kit, so today was perfect for creating a card using the kit. This is a different style for me, but at the same time… familiar. :) A more soft, vintage feel can translate to different styles and aesthetics, too. I generally go for a more clean look, and I think I still achieved that even though I used more vintage supplies and imagery.
This kit is just yummy. Plus, you get two stamp sets with it. Totally worth it in my mind. Plus, the papers are gorgeous, too.
I’m happy to be part of a blog hop today featuring some new BasicGrey product. :) BG announced two new lines that will be hitting stores very soon and I adore them! Paper Cottage and Clippings…
My favorite of the two is Paper Cottage. Just look at this loveliness…
Giveaway Time!
As part of the blog hop, BasicGrey is offering one lucky reader a 6×6 pad of Paper Cottage and my favorite embellishment from the line: the wooden buttons…
Just leave a comment on this blog entry to be entered into the drawing! Good luck! Comments close Tuesday, May 15 at 11:59 PM ET (which is really 10:00 pm where I live). :)

Hello! Sending you lots of glittery love today! Hope your weekend was wonderful! :)
For today’s Make a Card Monday card and video and I wanted to try out the American Crafts Glitter Tape. It’s been out for a while, but I haven’t really had a chance to play with it too much until now. Or rather, I haven’t thought about it too much until now. :)
Anyhow, I used the glitter tape to create a pattern. Super easy and simple. A bit time consuming, but totally worth it in my opinion. I finished the card off with some white Thickers and a punched heart that I covered with red Stickles glitter glue. Lots of sparkles today!
Hi all! I have another Simon card for you today. And I adore this sunny card. :)
I just adore this stamp set from Ali Edwards and Technique Tuesday. It’s just calling out to be used with a yellow sun rays card, don’t you think? It just makes me happy. :)
To create the rays pattern on the card, I created a template. You can DOWNLOAD THE TEMPLATE HERE. It’s a PDF file that you can print out and use to make your own sunshine rays card. Enjoy!
Hello! Today’s card and video is the second in my mini series of birthday cards. This one is easy, simple and worked up super fast. Basically, my favorite kind of card. :)
