May I be willing

Today is Our Daily Bread designs rewind of the latest release. Some beautiful creations with the newest goodies you surely do not want to miss from everyone. Check out the ODBD Blog for more details.

I went with a blue and white creation (imagine that) with stamp set The Cross. First is a base layer of white card stock, with some of the beautiful patterned paper Christian Faith Collection  layered next. I didn't want to cover up all that beautiful paper so I die cut the awesome Vintage Flourish Pattern ODBD Custom die with white card stock. Before I added that to the front of the card, I pulled through my ribbon so I could tie a bow in the center. Then added dimensionals to the die and layered onto the designer paper. Die cut the sentiment using Elegant Ovals ODBD Custom die and added a tiny cross from the new Ornamental Crosses ODBD Custom die. Accented with a few white pearls and voila! I adore how this turned out.

I heart you

Did you see? The Whiff Of Joy sneak peeks started. They have some adorable new images coming your way and this one is called Cherished Friend Owl. I have him stamped in Memento Tuxedo black ink and colored with various Copic markers. A simple layer onto some kraft card stock. The twine is tied off with a cute Button Die light with a few jewels for accent.

Added down the one side a heart border using Hearts Lace Border Die light. The sentiment is from I heart You in the Simply Maya collection. Voila! More sneaks to come and be sure to check out the WOJ Blog for more details and challenges.

Mrs. Peterson Name Hanger

Happy Monday! Hopefully you had a relaxing weekend. I enjoyed mine very much, now ready for the week. This is another one of the teacher Name Hangers that I created this year in her favorite colors. I know the heart border is more my favorite than theirs but that is the beauty of a gift when you include a little bit of yourself.  :-)   Here is my Name Hanger Tutorial if you would like to create your own. they are very simple and wonderful gift ideas. Have a wonderful day!

Knowing God

This weeks Featured Stamper 375 is Stampwithsandy. Charming gallery and I wanted to case just about all her white space creations. ha ha!! I kept it to one called Vivid Birthday Vases that I cased. kept the flowers in a vase, over all design, button and sentiment. Changed the stamp, colors and sentiment. I hope you can play along this week.

I stamped the Azalea onto white card stock and colored with Copics. Scored around the border and layered onto some buttercup yellow card stock. Added dimensionals to the back. Added a soft blue button to match the water in the vase. Then stamped my sentiment below. Voila! 

Miss Anya Journal

I altered this $1 journal/notebook that I found at our local craft store. The vibrant pink binding is what drew me to it originally and then for $1 it makes a great gift for the kids. I donated a few like this to the boys school class auction this week. Needless to say they went for a pretty penny (not actual money) but money they earned for the quarter. The girls really liked them so I guess I need to create some more. I have a Altered Notebook Tutorial if you find you want to create your own. See you tomorrow with this weeks Featured Stamper creation. Have a wonderful evening!

Cup of joy

Happy Friday! I a ready for the weekend and sleeping in, how about you? If its nice weather I might be up early trying to plant some fresh flowers but we will see how it goes. Today is a simple lavendar cup of joy for you using the beautiful Marcella's Mixtape stamp set at Power Poppy. I stamped the cup onto white card stock and colored with Copic markers.

Wanted to play with my square shapes so I grabbed some for fun. This paper is from an Authentique pack that I bought a few weeks ago and I am about out. Fresh and springy feeling don't you think? Added some more of my Candi dots and a ribbon bow. Inside is a birthday sentiment. Voila!  Have a wonderful weekend!

Peace out ride

Peace out dude! LOL  I am having fun with this new stamp set from Power Poppy called Good Thinking Renewal. I created a fun little goodie gift for a friend with my Mini Car Tutorial. The license plate has the sentiment Peace Out, rather fitting for this little bug car. hee hee

I added a few blooms to the tires and the back of the bug. Jewels for the lights and some designer paper I had in the stash.

I know she is going to adore this and it has goodies for her and the kids.  :-)  Want to create your own little Mini Car? Check out my Mini Car Tutorial with 3 different files to choose from to create with. All free of course. Enjoy!  Hope you have a fabulous day!
