You Deserve A Gold Heart

For this creation, I recycled organza ribbon from a gift, giving it new life and another purpose.

The gold hearts are brads, but I removed their spokes because I don't like having them show on the inside of the card.

Have your recycled something recently? What was it?

CAS - Try It Today

I'm keeping it super simple with this creation. by using all lilac cardstock with just a few hints of black and white.

I am not a CAS crafter, so I always have to stop myself from adding more and more embellishments.

Are you fancy smancy or a clean and simple artist? Or do you enjoy doing both styles?

Three Clouds




Happy Wednesday, lovely people!

The clouds were cut by hand and freestyle. I didn't use a pattern, so each cloud is unique - just like the real deal!

I also embossed the patterned paper with swirls to add a little extra texture.

Have you made your own embellishment lately? If so, what was it? Do you enjoy making your own or do you leave it to others?

{PIN}spirational Challenge #23: Photo Inspiration - Flowers In Pots





Isn't this such a wonderful idea? Hanging pots in rows on a fence is a fantastic way to add extra beauty to an outside space.

This is our newest inspiration photo for {PIN}spirational Challenges. Aren't you just inspired? I was!

There are so many lovely little details that you can take with you as you create. We would love to see you share your project with us, too!







Our sponsor at {PIN}spirational Challenges this week is Birdie Brown, who I am a HUGE fan of!

They offer adorable and super cute digis. I was lucky enough to be able to use one for this card.

To make the "eyes" on the flowers, I layered a black rhinestone on top of my "faux" brads. They make it very fabulous AND silly, don't you think?

Relax





I really tried to make this card "masculine." However, my feminine side definitely won out! I just couldn't resist adding flowers, bling & ribbons.




The corner detail is actually a corner bookmark that can easily be removed. (See photo below.)

It's a wonderful way to give a little gift with your card and add extra detail to it.

Enjoy Fresh Air






Another addition of using those green paper scraps along with stickers that I've had for, well, uh, a very long time.
