Lucky Us...

Hi, friends!

I'm just popping in quick to share with you a card I made for my good friend, Nancy, who happens to have an Irish last name, too!  I'm entering this card over at MFT Wednesday Sketch Challenge!  I recently purchased these fab St. Patrick's stamps/dies from MFT...love them!

For my card, I started with a white card base and added Authentique and Doodlebug paper.  I water colored the background behind the sweet PI image with orange Color Burst.  Super easy and so fun...love the effect!  The grass die is from MFT, too.  The dots are from Doodlebug.  And, here is my card...

 
 
Ok, friends, thanks so much for dropping by!  Have a great weekend!  Take care!
 
Hugs,
Maria

Paper Sweeties February Release Rewind!

 
 
 
Hi, there!
 

Welcome to Release Rewind!  New stamps/dies are combined with previously released stamps/dies for our projects. Today, I am highlighting the *new* stamps/dies from the set Thinking of You and coordinating die Sweet Cuts-Thinking of You.  The flowers, label, and sentiments are from the *new* set.  The pretty vase colored with copics is from a previously released set Garden Time and die cut with coordinating die Sweet Cuts-Garden Time. And, the heart on the vase is from the set Be Happy.
 
Here is a view of the inside of the card with more sentiments from the new set...

Hi, Friends!

Happy Valentine's Day!  I hope you have a wonderful day filled with lots of love!!!
 
And, welcome to Release Countdown for Paper Sweeties!  Tomorrow is the day that you'll be able to purchase *new* February stamps/dies from Paper Sweeties! 
 
Today, I like to share with you a tag I made for my husband using the *new* stamp/die set Thinking of You!  I wanted to make a romantic tag to go with the package of Valentine sugar cookies.  I used the flowers from the stamp set and colored them with copics.  They were die cuts using Sweet Cuts-Thinking of You.  Also, I used  Sweet Cuts-Stitched Tags(heart, and rectangle) and Sweet Cuts-Wish.(Love) die that was die cut with white craft foam.  The red rose flowers are from Paper Studio.  The paper is from Authentique.  And, the ribbon and pearl cotton are from Jo-Ann Fabric.
 
Another view of the yummy cookies...
 
 
Here is a view of the cookies before I packaged them.  I didn't package the large ones...just six small ones.
