Happy Friday Hello

Why, hello!  It's good to see you! :)  I'm up over at 3 Girl JAM today with this fun and happy card using my all-time FAVORITE crinkle ribbon bundle - the Spooky Bundle.  Love these purples and greens.  Here's what I did:


That gorgeous lace is from the 3 Girl JAM Light and Bright Set.  The fun and easy "bow" is one that is inspired by former 3 Girl JAM DT, Donna.  I just took a few strips of the gorgeous spooky bundle ribbon and tied it with twine.  The paper is from Graphic 45, the twine is Timeless Twine, and the stamps are from Dare2BArtzy.  I made the flower dimensional by fussy cutting stamped and glittered images from vellum.  Finally, the pearls are from The Pearl Girl.

Thanks for stopping in today.  Remember that you can use code KN10 on the 3 Girl JAM Store for 10% off your whole purchase.

Craftily yours,

Karen

Bird Freakin' Crazy

Yes, that's right I'm Bird freakin' Crazy for Tim Holtz's new Bird Crazy stamps!  It's my day over at Cut@Home today.  Be sure to stop by there to see more details, but I wanted to share with you here a couple of the cards that use Unity {Have Some Sass} sentiments (because it's FWF Friday).


I stamped the "sorry" part of this stamp on the inside of the card.


The paper on the first card is from Heartfelt Creationz Majestic Morning and Spellbinders Celebra'tions prints and solids on the second.  They are embellished with Timeless Twine, 3 Girl JAM ribbon, Bella Creationz Sequins and The Pearl Girl pearls.

Here's my video that shows all of the cards I made with these Bird Crazy stamps.



Thanks for stopping by today, and have a GREAT weekend!

Craftily yours,

Karen

Beauty from Birds and Blooms

I'm have a project up over at Cut@Home today using the Heartfelt Creations Birds and Blooms collection.  Love this pretty feminine paper so much!  

One of my cards I highlighted on the Cut@Home blog is this one:



Here's a close-up of those pretty shiny flowers:



After coloring them with Prima Watercolor pencils, I covered them with Angel Craft Podge in semi-gloss and sprinkled just a TEENY bit of Tim Holtz Distress Glitter in Spun Sugar on them.  I love this NEW podge.  I am super sensitive to smells, but it really hardly has any odor and doesn't bother me at all!

Here's a video where you can see these cards a little more close-up!

Mostly Monochrome Monday

Well, it's Monday again.  Why, oh why does that have to happen EVERY week?! I'm up over at the Timeless Twine blog today!

My post today is for Monochrome Monday, but I was tasked to use the very fabulous Timeless Twine in one of the Sorbet colors!  These fabulous twines are duo-colored, so here's what I did for MOSTLY Monochrome Monday for Mommas!


We were asked also to something Spring.  It's been Spring here in No California since Fall.....so I got this.  That beautiful twine is Razzleberry Sorbet Timeless Twine, and I used some pretty Bella Creationz Frost White Sequins (coming soon).  Love sequins!  The image is from Unity Stamp Company, the sentiment is Stampin' Up, and the lace is 3 Girl JAM.

Thanks so much for stopping by today.  Have you "liked" Timeless Twine on Facebook yet?  You should, so you stay up on all the lovely twine-tastic goodness....  And while you are browsing around, go see all the lovelies at the Bella Creationz Shop!  Be sure to check out the hecka-good deal on Sorbet twine this month!
