Summertime Fun

Welcome!

This week I did some more summery items.
Funny, living in Florida I should always be in the summery mood!

I created some mini tote bags or beach bags with laminated sheets so they are see-through.
I think they came out adorable and you can add some goodies for a friend inside.

This first one I added some trim and various items like the felt flower from Hobby Lobby and the butterfly from Ali Express.

This one I added trim to and a flower 
with some bling in the middle.

This next one I did with the same summer paper collection 
from Hobby Lobby as all of them, 
but added some flip flops, a flower and a swan.  
I also added another butterfly I purchased from Ali Express.

Those were so much fun to create.

Next, I made some Birthday embellishments.
I honestly cannot remember where I purchased all of the ephemera, but these die cuts were so much fun to play with.







I hope you enjoyed what I created this time 
and hope you come back to visit.
Take care and thank you!

Summertime Blues

Welcome!

I can't believe the Summer is almost over!
Well, living in Florida, Summer is never over...
just slows down for a bit!

I made these envelope booklets for the recipient 
to add their summer pictures to.

It was relatively easy to make and I do love making them.
I purchased a summer collection from Hobby Lobby along with some loose summer paper to use for these.


I used kraft enevelopes for all of these.


This first one has a circular summer scene die on the belly band.
It's actually a lot of fun to paper piece it together to have the various colors in the scene.


This next one I used another circular die of the sun 
with Aloha in the center.  
I placed it on top of a tag to adhere to the belly band.


I used some tropical paper on this one.


This next one has a die cut that was included in the Hobby Lobby Summer Collection.  These papers are so adorable.
Popsicles, Poolside and such are just some of the papers.


Very summery lounging on a float.


This next envelope booklet I made more Birthday themed.
On the belly band there is envelope I made with birthday ephemera...just love the balloon animal sticker!


I hope you are enjoying the rest of your summer.

Thanks so much for visiting.
Take care!

Big Wishes

Welcome!

The last couple of weeks I have been on a card frenzy...
so let's not stop now!!!

Here are three similar cards I made with 
Newtons Nook stamp set called Holding Happiness.

I made them all the same as in a tag for the sentiment on the side of the stamped image.


This first one has the girl with an over sized gift in her arms.


This second one has the girl holding a huge bunch of balloons.


They all have sequins on the background as well.


This last one has the girl holding a huge cake.


I added three colors of paper to the bottom of each card which brings all the colors of the card together.


I hope you enjoyed your visit.
Take care!

Some Happiness

Welcome!

This week I am showing some more cards I have made.
They are both Happy Birthday cards, 
which is what I mostly make since I do love sending friends and family cards for their special day.
It's my little way of sending some happiness.

The first one features a Clearly Besotted stamp set 
called Best Birthday.


I just love the die of Happy Birthday from Mama Elephant.
I cut out a couple of times to make it thicker.
I made the background with a cloud stencil and popped up the balloons and added embroidery floss as the balloon strings.


This next card I used the same 
Happy Birthday die but as a shaker.
I mounted it on a pink glitter paper and put sequins on the corners.


I used a pink sequins mixed I made for the inside.
I just love shaker cards...they are so much fun.


I hope you enjoyed visiting.
Take care!
