I Miss Your Face

Happy Tuesday!

Stencils are a girl's best friend when all creativity has slipped away. I just couldn't seem to find my way to today's card...until I grabbed this Erin Lee Creative stencil.

Making this card put me into a fall mood and that's a good thing! I love fall.

Have a creative day and I'll see you again tomorrow.

Color Throwdown Challenge #628 - You Brightened my Day

Happy Wednesday!

Here is my card for this week's Color Throwdown challenge #628. Look at these iced cookies that resemble conversation hearts! Swoon! So our colors this week are pink, lavender, yellow and mint green.

 

I just received my order from Erin Lee Creative and knew immediately I wanted to make a pastel rainbow. At first I colored white card stock, but I did not like the outcome, so I cut colored card stock and layered it three times. I was much happier with that outcome and even added a few die cut clouds. I stamped my sentiment from MFT Stamps and then made it into a mini slim card using products from Taylored Expressions.

Good Things are Coming

Happy Sunday!

I am using the same Erin Lee Creative kit called On the Bright Side that I used yesterday. I love rainbows almost as much as I love fruit images!

Today's card is a salute to the United States of America. I love our country. And I pray that we will come through this stressful time stronger and even more resolved to live our best lives in the greatest country ever.

Nothing political here...just an abiding love for my country. I'll be back again tomorrow and I'll see you then.

Look at You Being Awesome

Happy Saturday!

I received my Erin Lee Creative Look on the Bright Side Kit the other day and I could hardly wait to use it!

I pulled out my Concord and 9th inks and papers to make my fun rainbow scene. The stencil that creates the rays is so much fun to use! I used Taylored Expressions cloud dies on some silver sparkly paper and also one of her sentiment strips to finish my card. Silver sequins were just the icing on the cake (or should I say rainbow?).

Have a bright and happy day and I'll see you again tomorrow!

Try to be a Rainbow in Someone's Cloud

Happy Monday!

I am still loving the Somewhere kit from Erin Lee Creative. It is filled with rainbows stamps, dies, and stencils.

I was inspired by this card I found on Instagram by Amy Kolling. She is very talented and does some unique techniques which I love to see (and try).

Have a wonderful day and I'll see you again tomorrow!

Hoppy Easter

God Keeps His Promises

Happy Friday!

I started playing with the new Somewhere kit from Erin Lee Creative and now I just want to make rainbows - lots of rainbows!

I do think the sentiment is perfect for today. On Good Friday we know now that God did keep his promise and Jesus rose from the grave three days later. Hallelujah!

Have a wonderful day and I'll see you again tomorrow!

Thank You for Being so Sweet

Happy Thursday!

I recently discovered Erin Lee Creative and I'm so glad I did. I've already ordered and received her new kit called, "Somewhere" It is filled with rainbows stamps, dies, and stencils. But I also ordered this Scandinavian stencil and I absolutely love it. I am a sucker for clean graphic images. And there is no better color than Blueprint Sketch for my first attempt!

Have a great day and I'll see you again tomorrow!
