Primitive Blessing Card

Hello friends!

I have a quick post today.  (Is there any other kind lately with me?) My card uses the Primitive Quick Card fronts from Whimsy Stamps.  The images are so colorful and fun! I made it a bit more vintage by tearing the edges, machine stitching and adhering bits of lace behind the tears.  I added a bit of gingham ribbon, some old buttons, and attached it to a black card. 

Thank you for continuing to visit here.  I know lately my posts are sporadic. :)

My project uses papers and die cuts from Whimsy Stamps and some awesome glow in the dark products from Studio Light. (Products linked below)

The frame and the jack-o-lanterns were painted with some glow in the dark paint. I used the glow in the dark foil and die cut it with a circle die to create the moon behind the witch. I think it looks so cool at night!

Be sure to pop on over to Instagram!

So many fun projects on the hop!

 

    

 

Happy Halloween!

Hello friends!  Hope you are doing well! I can NOT believe it is almost Halloween! I know I have been saying this for years on this blog, but seriously, time needs to slow the heck down! 

I had one last Halloween card to share with you, and on the day of Halloween, I will have one more project.....and then it is time for the Christmas cards to start appearing! ;)

Today's card uses a variety of products from Whimsy Stamps. Rub ons, die cuts, a funky frame, and a few embellishments.  The products used are linked below. ;)

See you on the 31st for the last installment of Halloween!

 

Couple of Halloween Cards!

Hi friends!

I have a couple of Halloween cards using Whimsy Stamps, to share today.  Life has been hectic and getting on my computer these days has been tricky.  So I will be playing a bit of "catch up" over the next week.  

My first card uses the Dreamland 2 Quick Card Fronts.  These images are so vibrant that not much is needed to create a card.  I did add a sentiment, twine, and a few bats from the Bat Branch Die Set.  It was a simple card and quick to put together!

My second card uses the BOOkeh papers and the Keyhole and Keys Die set.  I grunged it up with grit paste and rubbed it with a gold Distress Crayon.  The witch is part of the Witch Whispers Sister Die set.  I sprayed her with some mica stains (Tim Holtz) to give her some shimmer.  The sentiment is from the Scary Night die set.  I cut it out of red paper and inked the edges with black ink.  I gave it a coating of glossy accents.  

I always appreciate your visits and sweet comments.  Even when I am super neglectful of this blog of mine.  :) Thanks for hanging in there with me!

 

Whimsy's New Release!

Good morning friends!

I have a card to share with you using Whimsy's new Primitive Sheep Die Set.  I used liquid applique on the bodies to give it that fluffy dimensional look. I also used the new Colonial America papers. I machine stitched the papers and added a circle cut out to create a sort of frame for my sheep.  I added to the sentiment using the Bold ABC Die set to add a touch of whimsy. :)

These sheep!!! LOVE!!

Thanks so much for stopping friends!!

 

Nightmares

Hello!

I am not sure who comes here for visits anymore, but for those of you who still come by, I apologize for my lack of posts.  The beginning of the school year always seems to kick my butt.  I am exhausted by the evenings and haven't crafted a whole bunch.

I am finally getting back into some sort of routine.....and created this Halloween card.  It was fast and easy to make.  

I used Whimsy's new Dreamland papers and paired with with the Bat Branch Die set.   I added a sentiment and a bit of twine to finish off the card. 

Quick and easy, my kind of card!
