Starting to Feel the LOVE

I know it is only January, but Valentine's Day will be here before you know it!

The stores have already stocked there shelves full of great goodies for you Valentine!

I did not want to fall behind, so I have also created some yummy cards

for you to give to your Valentine this year.

They are available on my Etsy shop.

They are also here for inspiration to you as well! :)

 

I love how this set of cards turned out!

I used two different stamps that I got from Michael's.

One was two cute little deer kissing and the other is a bear holding a heart.

I stamped them onto vintage tags.

I then colored them with my prismacolor pencils and Crayola markers.

I tied the tags with gold and white twine that I found in the $1 bins at Target! (Great find!)

I then glued them onto pretty paper that I used patterned scissors to cut.

I then covered the white card in red or pink card stock and then adhered my image!

This set of cards, along with many more, are available in my Etsy shop

Vintage Inspired Christmas Cards

I got some really cute chipboard Christmas reindeer, ornaments, snowmen, and doves from Michael's.

These embellishments inspired me to create some vintage inspired Christmas cards.

I had a Christmas paper pad that I had ordered from Oriental Trading several years ago.

I flipped through that, finding paper that would fit my vintage theme.

I had some country Christmas ribbon that worked well with the look I wanted.

I ran the ribbon across each of my cards.

I then used vintage like tags and tied a bow on them with twine.

I then adhered the chipboard embellishments to the tags.

Pretty red Christmas flowers with gold brads add a little extra "pop".

Each card features a Christmas sentiment that are puffy stickers.

I added in a few rhinestones on each card for a little extra bling.

Cards, such as the ones above, can be found in my Etsy store

Christmas Poinsettia Cards

Christmas is right around the corner! It is hard to believe it is December already. Time sure flies by!

I have been working on a lot of Christmas projects lately - between trying to get presents made for Christmas, participating in events online, and trying to create stock for my Etsy shop.

The following is a set of Christmas poinsettia cards that I made.

Each card has a Christmas themed decorative background with a ribbon running across the length of the card. The card is then decorated with a reddish burgundy flower that has gold glitter. The flower is accented with a gold brad.

This set of cards is available for purchase in my Etsy shop

Colorful Sock Monkeys

I found some super cute sock monkey stickers the other day while browsing in the store. They were so cute and fun that I had to buy two sheets of them - one to make cards with to sell and the other for my personal scrapbooking! Here is the set of cards that I came up with:

I accented my colorful sock monkey stickers with patterned papers, bright colored cardstock, rhinestones, ribbon, and more!
