Snow Flurry Card

Today's post is a card I made for a challenge recently.  It is an easy layout and you can change up the colors and embellishments to make your own quick card.

I used the Snow Flurry die and the Big shot to cut the snowflakes.  I added some pearls to them and used the Candlelight Christmas dsp which is found in the holiday mini along with the die.  The greeting is from teeny tiny wishes.  I gave the whole card a spritz with some champagne mist shimmer paint mixed with rubbing alcohol.  It is really pretty in real life.  :-)  Thanks for stopping by today.  Have a great week!

Flower Fest Again

Today's post, as promised, is with Flower Fest from the summer mini catalog.  It uses cherry cobbler, crumb cake, & early espresso for colors.  I love this combination.

Greetings are from the Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set--it has a greeting for just about everything you might need.  To accessorize I used some cherry cobbler seam binding, and pearls (some I colored).  I also used the punches that matched the flowers and the modern label punch for the greeting that I tucked behind the stamped flower strip.  Thanks for stopping by.  Have a good rest of your week--I am off for a funeral on Friday to the Missoula area.  Chat again soon.

paper:  DSP stack in subtles, whisper white cs, bashful blue cs, scrap of celery cs

Ink:  marina mist, bashful blue

Other:  subtles button, bakers twine in white (summer mini peek), certainly celery ribbon, Big Shot, polka dot embossing folder, circles #2 die, glue dots and dimensionals.

Speaking of babies, I thought I would share a few calving pictures with you today as well, I am hoping we can get rid of snow and slop one day soon.

Above is cleaning the corral area as the slop is getting deep!

Jeff and Prince checkin' heifers on spring break!  Isn't that what every college student wants to do on spring break~~~come home and work????

Prince is all tuckered out--nap time!  I hope you have a great day and thanks for stopping by.

CCMC138~~ Bliss Again!

Happy Tuesday to all!  Today's card is again made with the SAB set, Bliss.  I just love this set!  This is a card that I made to do a challenge from Create with Connie and Mary CCMC138.

I used cherry cobbler, baja breeze, early espresso, and crumb cake (stepping out of my comfort zone--not a combo I usually use).  Also used was the dotted scallop ribbon border, 2½ inch circle, and decorative label punches.  Some of the embellishments include linen thread and basic pearls.  Base card is early espresso with a crumb cake layer.  The scallop ribbon border is out of early espresso cs and layered beside a piece of cherry cobbler dsp from the regals dsp stack.  The first edition dsp is torn first and then sponged with early espresso ink and has some of the flowers in cherry cobbler on it. The baja breeze circle was ran thru the Big Shot with the polka dot folder.  I LOVE my Big Shot!  I haven't regretted that purchase for one second; I use it all the time!   I colored the basic pearl with a marker to match.  The greeting comes from teeny tiny wishes sponged with early espresso ink.  The focal piece is distressed with the cutter kit and mounted to the card after adding the greeting with dimensionals.  All of these items are SU and can be found in either the occasions mini, Sale-a-bration, or our big Idea book and catalog.  If you have questions please feel free to contact me.  Have a great day!
