Happy Barkday!

Elizabeth Craft Designs has a NEW release - and it's AMAZING.  Today I used the adorable Dog and Dog House dies and the Furrever Friends Sentiment Stamps to create this:

Isn't that FuN?!  The background is done with Tim Holtz Distress Oxide inks.  The dog is cut out of Soft Finish Cardstock and is colored with Distress Inks.  That fabulous paper is part of the Elizabeth Craft Designs Wood Effect Paper.  I created this card in inspiration of the Crazy4Challenges challenge to use wood grain.

Thanks for stopping by.  The link to my supplies from Elizabeth Craft Designs is below.

Craftily yours,

Erik's Birthday Pages

I'm absolutely loving on the new planner system at Elizabeth Craft Designs.  I have one "planner" for special moment scrapbook pages and another to remember birthdays.  At Crazy4Challenges, it's a sketch challenge this week that I used for inspiration for a birthday page for my oldest son (as if I could forget the day he was born!).  Here's the sketch:

And the right side is the page inspired by the sketch:

Fun!  The paper is from Heartfelt Creations (All Geared Up), and I am listing all of the Elizabeth Craft Designs products below.

I hope you decide to join us in the challenge!

Happy Momma's Day

Happy Mother's Day!  I have the best mom!  She's also an amazing grandma and friend!  Today, my design team sisters and I are creating presents for Mother's Day!

I made my mom a mini-album.  The two pics on the front of the album are the reason my mom is a mom - my brother and me.  The bottom row of pictures are several of my fave family pics that are a bit more recent :)

The products I used are listed below.  Thanks for stopping by.

Craftily yours,

It's the Simple Things

Fun happening over at Dare 2B Artzy today.  I'm posting!  (haha)  Here's what I made using the Take Time Stamp Set and the beautiful Summertime Petals Collection Paper:

Pretty!  I made this card for a co-worker who is retiring in a month or so.  I'm SO jealous!! <3

Scraps Fun

There's a new challenge at Crazy4Challenges.  This time, we are challenged to use our scraps in cardmaking.  I used scraps instead for these scrapbook/planner pages using products from the Elizabeth Craft Designs planner line.  Here's what I made:

The paper is scraps I had left from a old Graphic 45 line.    Here's a fun close-up of the tags.

And here's another close-up of my girlfriends and me.

Thanks for stopping by.  I do hope you join in the fun of the challenge and use up some of those scraps.  The products I used from Elizabeth Craft Designs are below.

Craftily yours,

Karen
