Just a wavy note

This was a fun set of cards to make using Echo Park Jack and Jill papers. The die is My Favorite Things Snow Drifts and the sentiment is Paper Smooches.

Hugs

Here's a fun card with some pretty Teresa Collins paper. I love how some of the elephants are shiny. I used some gold American Crafts brads to match and a Hero Arts sentiment.

Blue hugs

I've been using a new Doodlebug 6x6. Here's one of the cards using Mojo Monday 444. The banners are made with matching Doodlebug washi tape. The sentiment is Paper Smooches.

You rock

Here's a card using an Echo Park 6x6 pad called Jack & Jill. I so rarely use orange but those cameras were asking for it. That sentiment is two stamps from Winnie & Walter while the embossing folder is Diamond Plate by Cuttlebug. The inspiration card is here.

You Are Fabulous

I went waaay back into the OWH archives and made these with sketch 1. I used both sides of a piece of Pebbles paper, a sentiment from SU and some Triveni bling.

Colorful Hello

Here's a fun OWH bonus sketch from way back in 2012. I used some American Crafts papers, some Hero Arts stamps and a bit of Triveni bling.

Be Yourself

This card definitely turned out different from the one I was looking at here. Sometimes you just have to go with what you end up with, though, right? I used a Rubbernecker stamp with some Fresh Ink Chocolate and Memento London Fog to make the background. The sentiment is also a Rubbernecker stamped in SU Old Olive. Those stars are all from scraps I had on hand.

Perfect Thank You

This is the card I made using this card for inspiration. I've had this piece of Doodlebug paper for quite awhile now and it was time to make a "girlie" card. The stamp is from Inkadinkado and the inside is stamped "thank you."

Smile!

I'm slowly working my way through an American Crafts 6x6 pad and this is one of the cards I made with it. It follows OWH sketch 240. The smile is a stamp from Endless Creations.

Hello!

When I originally bought this Doodlebug paper, I bought it for the other side which is a much more subtle brown on brown pattern. But then I saw this card and and knew it would be perfect for this card. The stars were cut with Spellbinders and embossed with a SU folder. The bottom of the banner is done with a Taylored Expressions die. Hot Off the Press provided the sentiment.

Just a Note

This is actually a "miss you" card with the sentiment stamped inside. The papers are from an American Crafts 6x6 pad and the background was scored using my Scor-Buddy. The outside sentiment is from Hot Off the Press. I used this as my inspiration.

Masculine Miss You

It's not easy to make a masculine card for me. They tend to be more unisex, or downright feminine. But I noticed in my last OWH box that I needed some more "miss you" cards. This is what I came up with. I used SU Work of Art stamp set for the chevrons, a Hero Arts stamp for the car and a Technique Tuesday sentiment. The orange is SU Pumpkin Pie. I think that embossing folder is from Cuttlebug.

So Very Thankful

My friend Kristie introduced me to this My Favorite Things quilt die and I had to have one for myself. I made these with one of the many 6x6 pads I have in my paper stash. The sentiment is from The Alley Way Stamps and heat embossed in black. The brads are American Crafts.

Circles Circles Circles

Like most paper crafters, I have a lot of scraps. It was time I used some of them. With some Spellbinder circles and an embossing folder, this is what I came up with. The ivory paper also has some ivy embossed on it. Triveni bling helps balance the whole thing.

Sail Away

You can't tell, but this is a thank you card...the sentiment is on the inside. I used some goodies I got at the Scrapbook Expo to make it. The Queen & Co. washi tapes and Heartfelt Creations stamp set were must haves for me. With the addition of some Taylored Expressions dies, the card was finished!

Just a Note

I don't often use digital stamps, but I liked the look of this one. I've had it printed out and ready to use for a couple of years which shows how often I use them. While it could be used for a masculine or feminine card, I chose to go with more masculine. Some Bazzill papers for texture and some old Recollections bling help give it personality. The sentiment is by Hot Off the Press.

Flower Flourish

I love the bright colors on this card. They are SU Melon Mambo, ColorBox Violet and SU Pacific Point. The Inkadinkado Dot Flourish is stamped with VersaFine Black Onyx. The color swipes are from SU Work of Art and the flowers are from SU Petite Petals, punched out with the coordinating flower punch.

Work of Art Thanks

This card features the SU Work of Art stamp set. I used mostly SU inks...Old Olive, Real Red and Pumpkin Pie. The yellow is Powder Puff Lemonade. The sentiment is Paper Smooches, the bling is Triveni and the original idea is here.

A Million and One

I think there's an OWH sketch like this somewhere, but I can't say for sure. It's a simple card and showcases the DCWV papers. The sentiment is Technique Tuesday and is mounted on some Spellbinder circles. I kind of wish I'd done the sentiment in a different color to make it pop more...maybe next time.

Lone Tree

I like the simplicity of this card and decided to make my own version. I used a SU Work of Art stamp and stamped it with Memento Cottage Ivy three times in a row without re-inking it. Then I embossed a stamp from SU Lovely as a Tree with Ranger Copper powder. Adding three American Crafts brads finishes it off.
