JustRite's May Release-Bicycle Built for Two!

Good morning friends! I am so happy it is Saturday! The sun is shining, the weather is supposed to be a wee bit warmer today, and right now I am enjoying the fact that I am the only one up in the house at the moment! 

Today is JustRite's last day of their May release. 

This set is called, Bicycle Built For Two.  Who doesn't love a two seater bicycle?

I stamped it in turquoise and added a flower I had left over from another project. It was origninally cut using my Silhouette. The image was cut using the Spellbinder's Resplendant Rectangles die.  I did a bit of Copic air brushing. 

I added the sentiment on a hand cut banner. I added ribbon, string, and a few rhinestones.  I also did some hand stitching around the perimeter for a cozy handmade feel. 

Here is the entire set. Love this one!

There is an SVG file that goes along with this set as well! So many options....this gal LOVES options!

Be sure to pop around the other blogs for more inspiration using this fun set!

JustRite's May Release Day 3-Cupcake Wishes

Today's card is perfect for today. It is Cortney's 19th birthday. I created this card with her in mind. :) She is definitely a girly girl and wears a lot of pink. Of course I have to laugh because when her classroom celebrates birthday's, the birthday girl or boy selects a color for the class to wear.  She chose yellow.

Yellow? She doesn't even own any yellow clothes! So off I ran to the mall and found a perfectly sunny yellow dress for her. I am going to try and sneak a few pics of her before she heads off to school.  

So my birthday card is a blend of her feminine pink and her sunny yellow! 

The set is called, Cupcake Wishes and is absolutely adorable. 

I stamped the cupcake liner on a separate piece of card stock and cut it out.  I added glossy accents and glitter to it.  I snuck a bit of doily behind it as well.  I added some satin ribbon, string, and a sequin to the center of the bow.  I matted the image using Spellbinder's Diamond Effect's die.  I added a few more sequins, a gingham ribbon, and a flower to the center. 

Here is the entire set! 

Be sure to pay these other ladies a visit!

JustRite's May Release-Fern & Fleur Twist Background Stamp!

Today is day 2 of JustRite's May release! I have not one but two cards to share with you!  More bang for your buck! ;) The first card was created using a new background set called, Fleur Twist. I stamped it in Versamark and embossed it in black. I gave it a water color wash using Tim Holtz Distress markers. 

The sentiment is from the Doily One set I shared yesterday. 

I have been loving the angle cards lately and decided to try my hand at one. :)

The flower is by Silhouette, called 3D Wedding Flower. I added a few silk flowers, ribbon, string, and stick pins to finish it off. 

On to my second card! This stamp is a large fern which is just so cool!

I stamped it in pink and blue and then in Versamark. I embossed the top layer in green. I added a frame using the Spellbinder's Matting Basics Die. I adhered glossy accents to the frame and sprinkled it with Clear Coarse glitter from Martha Stewart. 

I finished it off with a sentiment stamped, embossed in white on vellum. I added ribbon, string, and a couple of posies. 

Isn't this set the coolest!?

And as always, you will want to visit these talented ladies to see how they used these fabulous sets!

JustRite's May Release-Doily One!

Is it really almost May?  Where does the time go?  The best part of a new month is getting to share all of JustRite's new releases!  Today's set is called, Doily One. I am in love with this set! 

I decided to create a pretty background using turquoise, pink, and yellow.  I matted it on pink paper. The sentiment is also part of this fun set! I stamped it in Versamark and embossed it in gold. I added strips of gold Washi tape to help the sentiment stand out a bit. 

I created another coffee filter flower using Spellbinder's Rose Creations die. I added gold Wink of Stella to the petals.  I added 3 gold pearls to the center and added various layers of string to tie it all together.  (No pun intended!)

Spring Tulips...

Good morning! It is the beginning of a new week! We are supposed to get rain most of the week....spring showers bring May flowers right? I found this darling tulip card at the Silhouette store. It was designed by Daniela Angelova. I gave the tulips a bit of shading with my Spectrum Noir markers. I used a bit of glossy accents and glitter and popped up the top layers of the flowers with dimensional foam squares from Scrapbook Adhesives 3L.  The bottom of the card opens to reveal the message inside. 

The gardening tools are part of JustRite's Garden Tools stamp set. I shaded it in with Spectrum Noir markers and added chocolate brown Flower Soft to emulate dirt. I added a bit of satin ribbon and a few posies to finish it off.

Thank you for stopping by! Have a great week my friends!!!

Dresser Box

I am in love with this dresser from Silhouette. I've been wanting to do something creative with it for quite some time.  It was designed by the talented  Samantha Walker.  I decided to stay in my comfort zone and use soft pinks, blues, and a pop of red. I wanted it to have a shabby vintage feel to it. 

I  used pearls for the drawer handles and a bit of doily peeking out of the top of the drawers.  The drawers are perfect for putting jewelry or some smaller trinkets for the recipient.  

I added a 3D Coreopsis flower  designed by Jamie Cripps. I gave it a bit of color by adding pink using Tim Holtz Distress Markers. 

I added a few leaves, string, berries, and a sentiment using an SRM sticker. 

It is going to be another busy weekend here.  I will be standing on the street corner to help raise money for Misericordia.  (The facility we are trying to get Cortney into).  I have a communion party for a close friend, piles of laundry, and maybe a bit of crafty time snuck in here and there.

Any plans this weekend?

Would love to hear what you are up to! 

HUGS my friends!

Animal Party!

Thank you so much for your sweet comments about Cortney.  I did pass along what you said to her.  She was smiling from ear to ear.  (My daughter is a bit of a ham!) ;) And to answer Debby's question, yes it is an Origami Owl bracelet she had on. ;) 

I wanted to share something crafty today using a darling image from Crafty Secrets.  It is a digital image from the set called, Animal Party.  I colored it with Copics. 

The red polka dot paper is also from Crafty Secrets and is part of the Radiant Paper pack. I added a bit of ribbon, string, old fashioned stick pin complete with sentiment, and a bit of gold tinsel. 

I am heading to work in a bit, so this is going to be a bit short!

Have a great day and thank you for constantly cheering me (my family) on!  It means the world to me!
