Right At Home Scrapbooking Store Creations!

Good Morning Friends! I have a card and a tag to share with you today. The Right at Home Scrapbooking Store Design Team is celebrating the Twelve Days of Christmas. To see all of their fun projects for the Holidays, just stop by the store's blog. This month, Lisa asked me to work with some Hero Arts stamps and these fun papers from Echo Park. Here is a peek at my tag.

I started off with a die cut made with the My Favorite Things Die-namics Tag, You're It die. I added some machine stitching, a sweet little button, and some pretty ribbon. The festive tree is colored up with Copic Markers (E23, E25, G82, G94, G99, YR24, YR30, and YR31) and then I fussy cut it out and popped it up on the tag.

My card design is simple, but I love the way it turned out. The image is colored with Copic Markers (G82, G94, G99, R46, R59) and then I added some Star Dust Stickles. A button, some craft thread, and a bit of machine stitching complete my card.

Thanks so much for visiting with me this morning. Enjoy the beautiful day...Toodles! :D

More Right at Home Scrapbooking Cards to Share!

Hello Friends! I have two more cards to share with you today. Lisa, from Right at Home Scrapbooking, gave me two sets from the new Hero Arts-Sizzix line to design with. Earlier this month, I showcased one of the large background stamps with the matching embossing folder. You can find all of the details for that product here. This time around, I'm using the new Antique Flowers and Butterflies set. Along with the cling stamps in the set, there are matching dies that fit each image perfectly. How cool is that! The cling stamps easily attach to your acrylic blocks. Here's a picture of the set and one of the stamped images.

Here's a picture of the image with the matching die. I like to add a little piece of tape to hold the die in place before I run it through my Cuttlebug. For these Sizzix dies, I use an A, B, paper and die, and C "sandwich".

After I ran the "sandwich" through my Cuttlebug, this is what I ended up with. A perfect die cut piece!

I took this beautiful blossom and created this note card. The sketch for this card came from Jen Del Muro's October Sketch For You To Try.

Here is another note card with this lovely set. This time around, I chose to showcase the beautiful butterflies.

If you'd like more details about the supplies for these cards, just head over to the Right at Home Scrapbooking Blog. Thanks so much for stopping by to visit with me! Have a Happy Thursday...Toodles! :D

Best wishes on your Birthday!

Happy Friday Friends! As I promised yesterday, I'm back today with this week's Blogger's Challenge (Birthday theme) and I also used some of my forgetten stamps for Forgotten Stamp Friday. If you'd like to play along too, you can just click on the challenge links above.

This is actually a CASE of a card that my wonderful friend Clara made. You can find her card here. The flower stamp is from the Peeking Posies set from Hero Arts. It is a favorite of mine and one of the first stamp sets that I bought when I started stamping. I fell in love with the set when Trudee Sauer would create such beautiful cards with it. I haven't used it in forever though. The sentiment is from Elzybells (sadly, they are out of business). I purchased this stamp over the summer and was thrilled to get some ink on it. The flower is colored up with Copic Markers (G21, G82, R22, R24, Y21, and Y32) and I added some Star Dust Stickles to make it sparkle. The image is paired up with Stampin' Up's Cameo Coral, Certainly Celery, and some retired SU designer paper. The yellow polka dotted paper is from Bo-Bunny. The buttons were made with the SU Button die in Cameo Coral. (I really like everything to match...lol!)

Thanks so much for visiting with me today! Stay warm...Toodles!
