Pineapple Greeting Card

Happy Thursday! Today I'm sharing a handmade greeting card that I made last week. I am getting really excited for Spring and Summer so I decided to make a greeting card that reminded me of Summer.

This card was really easy to make and took me less than 10 minutes to make. I got that pineapple sticker and the enamel dots from Michaels. The alpha stickers are from Freckled Fawn. I love how the alphas have two different colors. The white and gold is perfect. I decided to spell out "Hello" so that it would be perfect for any day.

This card is currently available in my shop. Don't forget that you can get 30% off your order in my shop with the code LUCKY. The code is valid until March 31, 2017.

Supplies Used:

• Enamel Dots

• Pineapple Gemstone Sticker

Handmade Happy Anniversary Cards

Hello! Today, I'm sharing some handmade anniversary cards that I made during the weekend. I used Crate Paper's Hello Love collection to make a couple of cards. The Hello Love collection is definitely Valentine's Day themed, but there are still a lot of pieces that can be used for other types of cards like anniversary cards. Check out the anniversary cards below.

You can find these cards here and here. Be sure to check out my shop for more cards.

Have you used the Hello Love collection by Crate Paper?

Supplies Used:

Happy Anniversary Card

Happy Thursday! So as you may know, I subscribe to the Freckled Fawn embellishment kit. I absolutely love Freckled Fawn and their products. This month's kit is really adorable, but I will admit that I immediately knew that this kit would be a challenge for me to use. The main reason is that the kit has a lot of pink products. I don't normally use a lot of pink in my projects and usually when I do, it's for Valentine's Day cards and layouts.

I was inspired by this month's sketch challenge and the Washi Die Cutting technique. Instead of making a heart shape, I just decided to make a "die cut" circle. To make my circle, I used my Simple Stories circle crop and then used a pencil and a X-acto knife. You could also use a die cutting machine as well. After making the circle, I used some washi strips from the washi book to cover the entire base of my card and then cut the excess strips off. I also used my X-acto knife to cut out the strips that covered the circle. To finish my card, I stamped my sentiment and adhered the white glitter bow to the top.

Supplies Used:

• February 2017 Freckled Fawn Embellishment Kit

• X-acto Knife

• Pencil

• Tombow Xtreme Adhesive Tape Runner

Do you subscribe to Freckled Fawn? What did you think of this month's kit?

Feminist Greeting Cards

Happy Wednesday! Last weekend, I made some handmade greeting cards.

Handmade Birthday Card

Over the weekend, I made a handmade birthday card using some items in my stash. I used Crate Paper's Hello Love paper for the base. Even though this paper pad is Valentine's Day themed, I love that I can still use it for other occasions. I really love how this card turned out and I love that I can personalize it by adding someone's name beneath the word "birthday" and the next to the cupcake.

Supplies Used:

• Crate Paper Hello Love 12x12 Paper Pad

• Freckled Fawn - February 2015 Kit

• Recollections Pastel Enamel Dot Stickers

• Simple Stories SNAP Letter Stickers

Handmade Christmas Greeting Cards

Happy Thursday! Today, I'm sharing a few Christmas cards that I made. All of these cards are currently available at my shop.

I had so much fun making over 20 Christmas and holiday themed cards last week. I think they turned out great. Each card is different. One of my favorite cards is the Christmas Gingerbread House card. The house is just adorable and I love that it's colorful.

How cute are those trees and the houses? I really like the card with the cork tree and the stars. There are stars inside the tree. I think the hint of silver makes the card pop. 

Have you started getting ready for the holidays?

Handmade Greeting Cards

Hello! I recently made a bunch of Fall and Thank You cards. The "Thank You" cards are geared towards teachers and school bus drivers. You may have seen the cards on my Instagram, but I thought I would share them here as well.

I used a bunch of embellishments from a previous Freckled Fawn kit as well as some patterned paper in my stash. How cute is that Owl? If you click on the picture, you can see that the enamel dots have glitter in them.

I also used some Freckled Fawn embellishments and patterned paper on this card. I really like the colors on this card. The striped alpha letters are so adorable and add just a bit of dimension.

School has already started where I live so I was inspired to make a batch of cards for teachers and school bus drivers. I used my Hero Arts sentiment stamp set and some chipboard stickers from Me & My Big Ideas. I just simply placed the sticker in the center and then stamped the sentiment beneath it.

I made a couple of sets of "Thank You" cards for teachers...it's perfect for those who have various teachers to thank. I love the apple stickers. They even have glitter on them, but the glitter does not come off!

You can find all of these cards in my shop.

Supplies Used:

• Me & My Big Ideas - I Love School Chipboard Stickers
• Freckled Fawn October 2014 Embellishment Kit
• Chickaniddy Crafts Scrumptious 6x6 Paper Pad

Are you ready for Fall and Back to School?
