Winter Blues

We've got a DT card reveal over at the Just Imagine Crafts Blog today. The reveal theme was Winter Blues. I never thought I'd have the winter blues living in Florida but lately it's been cold down here. Anyway, here's my card.

For the background I used a faux letter press technique. I inked a crackle embossing folder with blue ink and embossed some white cardstock. I then used Kreaxions punch #920  with insert B for the blue doily and used the star cutouts from that on the the crackled cardstock. Cut some snowflakes with my Cricut, glittered with some gold glitter and added them to the doily. Seems frosty to me!

Birthday Card

I've got a card up on the Just Imagine Crafts blog today. I decided to go with some soft spring colors and I just love the orange and green color combo on this card.

I am really loving these Kreaxions punches and having fun playing around with them. For this card I used punch #920 with insert A and then backed the punched area with peach colored seam binding. 

Birthday Card

Busy day scrapping for me today. I also made this card and it also fits a challenge at the Turtle Soup Mini Crop going on this week. You had to make a birthday card and use strips of paper.

Lots of fun challenges going on during the Turtle Soup Mini Crop. Hope you'll stop by and join in the fun!

School Days

Here's a layout of my granddaughter at school. She just looked so happy that I had to scrap it.

This was for a scraplift challenge over at Turtle Soup. Please stop by and play along.

Cupcake Card

I've got a challenge up at Turtle Soup today. It's a card sketch and it is just so cute! Here's my take on it.

And here's the sketch

Please stop by and check out all the fun challenges we have going on at Turtle Soup!

Heart Punch Card

I'm so excited to be posting today as this is the first card I've made as a member of the Just Imagine Crafts DT. I've never used Kreaxions punches before but I am already in love with them. I think is is just amazing that you can use one punch and get 4 different results with it.

I used punch #917 without any of the inserts to get the border punch here including the hearts. Did I mention I love these punches!!

Valentine Card

I've got a challenge up at Turtle Soup today. It's to make a tag and use it on a card or layout.

I also tried out a new technique. I dried out some used tea bags and then stamped and embossed them. I love how they turned out with a vintage look.
