Dynamic Duos #95

Happy Monday!

Just popping in quick to share with you a card I made for the above challenge over at Dynamic Duos!  I always seem to have a stash for adult bday cards, but I need to build up a supply for little ones.  So, here is the card that I made with the adorable Lawn Fawn stamp set...

I started with a white card base and stamped the music notes for the background on light blue paper.  I fussy cut the birdie, hippo, and balloons.  A border with gems and twine added to the balloons to finish off the card.

Thanks for dropping by today!  Hope you have a wonderful week!

Hugs,

Maria

Happy Easter!

Hi there!

Hope you're having a great weekend!  It's a bit chilly here, but the sun is shining!  Spring is just around the corner and so is Easter!  I thought I'd join in and make an Easter card being inspired by the lovely colors over at Colour Me Challenge.  And here is my card...

I started with white card stock and layered with green and blues.  The lovely bunny die is from Serendipity.  Such a pretty bunny, don't you think?  I adhered vellum behind the bunny and added pearls.  The sentiment, eggs and coordinating dies are from Paper Sweeties.  I painted the dots on the eggs with white paint for interest and dimension.  The grass die is from MFT.  Clouds, sentiment with twine, and pearls to finish off the card. 

Thanks so much for visiting here today!  I hope you're having a fun crafty day! 

Hugs,
Maria

Happy St. Patrick's Day!!!

 

 

Top o' the mornin' to ya wee folks...lol!  Are you wearing any green today?  If you don't know by now, I am Irish by marriage.  My last name is Patrick, sooo that means Irish!;-) 

 

I saw a fun challenge over at City Crafter and thought how fun it would be to make a St. Pat's card.  And, here is my card...

 

 

 

I used SU colored pencils to make the rainbow.  Gold stickles were added for interest.  Little confetti shamrocks placed.  And, the sentiment is from Paper Sweeties.  There you have it, a simple CAS card for St. Pat's day!  Hope you have a wonderful St. Pat's Day!

 

Thank you for taking a peek at my card!

Paper Sweeties March Release Rewind!

Hi there!

Welcome to Paper Sweeties Release Rewind!  Today I'm sharing with you a project highlighting a previously released stamp set called Borders.  This stamp set has six lovely border stamps that you can use on cards and/or projects. 

I started with paper mache eggs and cut strips of paper and adhered with decoupage finish.  After the finish dried, I sprayed the eggs with perfect pearls mist to give them a bright shine.  I stamped a border image onto a strip of muslin.  I colored the center of the flowers with copics for the yellow egg.  Pearls and flowers were added.  Paper Sweeties ribbon of Primrose Cookie Dough, Vintage Winter White, and Creamsicle with twine added to the top of the egg.  My Easter project is now sitting on my dining room table.  I have just a few Easter decorations out at this time.  I need to nudge my husband to get up into the attic to bring more down.  And, yes...sigh...I got into the Easter candy...lol!  Mmmm...those Reece's little peanut butter cups are the best!:-) 

Ok, friends, thanks so much for stopping by!  I hope you enjoyed the projects for this month!  Have fun buying those new Easter stamps/dies.  Please follow the list and hop along to see some wonderful creations from my fellow team members!
