God Bless

I really wanted to use this Gina K label stamp and thought it went well with this Me & My Big Ideas flower paper. The sentiment is Paper Smooches and has a couple of American Crafts brads to help accent it. The sheer black ribbon is from my stash.

OWH Sketch Challenge #219

This was a fun OWH sketch to play with, even if the reason for the card isn't fun. The design paper is Me & My Big Ideas and the teal and dark pink are Bazzill. I used Spellbinders for the circles and filled it with Paper Smooches sentiments. The black bling is Triveni Craft. 

Just a note

I've never understood the whole mustache fad, but I did fall in love with these Momenta embellishments and the Me & My Big Ideas mustache paper. There's no sketch or challenge for this one, just a fun masculine card. Thanks for stopping by!

Many Butterfly Thanks

Today I have a card using OWH bonus sketch three. I mounted some Me & My Big Ideas paper on some purple Bazzill then cut out some shapes with a Spellbinders die. Those shapes were cut in half and stamped with an Inkadinkado sentiment. The card still looked a little plain, so I added some Triveni bling.

Baseball Miss You

I'm using some more Me & My Big Ideas paper today. I love the stitches with grey stripes. I also found some Hot Off the Press paper with lots of little baseballs on them and figured they were a perfect match. The layout is OWH sketch 3. I used a Paper Smooches sentiment and finished it off with three little American Crafts brads.

If I had to choose...

I went way back to the first OWH sketch to make this card. The baseball paper is from Me & My Big Ideas and perfectly matches the SU Real Red ink. The sentiment is brand new! I picked it up at a recent paper crafting show. It's from Rubbernecker. To finish it off, I used some American Crafts brads.

A simple hello

I thought it was time to drop a feminine card in here with all of the masculine ones I've been posting. The sentiment is from a new Hero Arts set called "You're A Rainbow." I surrounded it with lots of pink Triveni bling. The breast cancer awareness paper is from Me & My Big Ideas.

A good idea

It's more of that Me & My Big Ideas mustache paper and another Momenta embellishment. I'm really happy with these embellishments because the whole thing is sticky on the back and the perfect thickness for Operation Write Home cards.

How could I not use this sketch when it has three banners on it?! Not to mention I had the perfect Me & My Big Ideas paper and Momenta embellishment! The grey paper is Bazzill while the rest is basic card stock. I used a Fiskars border punch for the scalloped line. 

Thanks times two

Here's a simple layout that packs some punch with the design papers. I used DCWV paper on the left and Me & My Big Ideas on the right. The button punch is Martha Stewart accented with black Pearl Pen. For the sentiment, I used one from Paper Smooches.

OWH Sketch #218

Here's another OWH sketch for you. I love the ones that feature a banner. The patterned paper is Me & My Big Ideas and the background is embossed with a Sizzix folder. The darker pink paper is Bazzill. I used a Paper Smooches stamp set for the sentiment and hearts then added some Triveni bling.

OWH Sketch Challenge #220

This is a first for an OWH sketch...it has no measurements! Not only that, but it's got that tilted, off-center thing going on. It certainly took me a few minutes to figure it out. I started with some mustache paper from Me & My Big Ideas because I had the Momenta embellishment to go with it. The Triveni bling gives it that finishing touch, don't you think?

Hey Buddy

I've been trying to focus on more masculine cards lately and here are two that I've done. The original idea for them came from here. Both cards feature basically the same things. The green and orange papers are DCWV and the polka dot paper is Basic Grey. The sentiment and stars were cut with Nesties while the sentiment itself is by Paper Smooches. I stamped the top one in Fresh Ink Chocolate and the bottom one in Memento Cottage Ivy. The orange and green bling is from Me & My Big Ideas. The stars and sentiment are popped with dimensional adhesive.

 

Not quite sure why the pictures are so different. I took them in the same spot with the same camera. But at least you can see the vibrancy of the green and orange.
