Another Make it Monday Card #150

I'm taking the day off tomorrow so I decided I could stay up late and make another card for this weeks Make it Monday for Papertrey Ink. I didn't think it would take me this long, but I decided to use Ruby Rose which I just got last week. I don't work with a lot of flowers so it took me forever to figure out what I was going to do. I knew I wanted to use the Fabulous Frames die after I saw another card here using the die. Such a clever idea!

Make It Monday #150

I started out thinking I was going to make a birthday card but once I was done I felt it looked more like a baby card. I wanted a bee to be flying around to kind of go this with the honeycomb pattern of the hexagon coverplate. I started flipping through my dies looking for something to stamp my sentiment on and I thought the little cloud was perfect. I had to cut my sentiment, from Hanging Out, in half to fit better.

I fussy cut the wings and left the ends curled up. I covered them with my Wink Of Stella because I'm obsessed with it. I think that i need to round the corners or something, i just haven't figured it out. Sorry my pics are dark, I finished this up at around 11:30 last night. 

Make it Monday #149

Oh my goodness! Three cards in one week. I don't know if I will ever be able to top this!

I don't generally use a lot of glitter but I really wanted to participate in this week's challenge.  And, I figured that I really needed to use this little owl set, because when I was putting away my latest PTI order today I realized that I now have two of them. I was so busy over the holidays that I hadn't used it from my December order and I ordered it again!

This little guy is so cute! I glittered up his little wings. I did a little masking on the branch and the sentiment, and then added the "love" into the air with all those little hearts.

Pink blog hop card

I can't believe that I actually found time to make two cards this week! This one uses the Tipped Tops die again and a simple sentiment from TBF 23. I really wanted to have the open heart in the background. That is a stamp from a Studio Calico kit. I thought maybe the front panel was too plain but I felt better once I went over all the hearts with my Wink of Stella pen. I'm in love with that shimmer! I tried to get it in one of the pics but I don't know how well you can see it. I still might add something to the pink panel, I just can't decide what.

January blog hop

It's been so long since I posted anything but I have finally gotten through my crazy work schedule for year end and actually spent some time organizing my craft room this past weekend. It inspired me to actually make a card! This week I'm having lunch with a friend for her birthday so I thought I would make a card that I could also use for the blog hop.

There's not a lot of pink in this card but I really wanted to use my new tipped tops dies and I really like the look of the smokey shadow and white with the pops of raspberry fizz. 

Its kind of hard to see in the photos but I used my Wink of Stella pen on the stars. I love the subtle shimmer!
