Cupcake card

If you're anything like me, you spend a fair amount of time online or in magazines looking at the latest and greatest paper craft products. I love to see what everyone else is working on. It gives me ideas and inspiration. If you are a lot like me while browsing other crafter's works you will undoubtedly find something that you don't yet have but can't possibly live another day without. Is any of this sounding familiar? (You know who you are!!!) Well that is exactly what happened to me when I saw this Lucy Bird patterned paper pack by Imaginisce.
I used pink, blue, brown and yellow cardstock from my stash. Then I cut a square of the Lucy Bird paper and layered that on a strip of brown cardstock that I punched. I added a larger strip of the brown cardstock on top and then cut three scalloped squares with my Nestabilities. Next I stamped the cupcake six times. Six you ask, but I only see three. I stamped it six times, coloring three complete images and three extra flowers with my copics. I cut the cupcakes out with a circle Nestabilitie then I applied Liquid Applique for the frosting added a little glitter (no project is complete until I sparkle) and set it with my heat gun. Next I filled in the flowers with my Spica glitter pens, cut the three extra flowers out and attached each with a pop dot. To finish off the card I attached each of the stamped images with another pop dot.

Puppy Love

These perfect pups are from Stamping Bella. With all the snow we have had lately I finally had a chance to put some ink on some stamps I have had for a while. I just love these two and thought they made a great Valentine's Day couple. Lately I have been grabbing my purple copics more often than my pink, which is unusual for me but I am enjoying the change.
Pretty simple card, the image says it all so I just layered in onto a purple die cut and then put it down on top of the blue and purple patterned paper and then added the purple ribbon for a little extra splash of color. Let me know what you think!

Wrapped In Love

This is one of my favorite Valentine images from Stamping Bella. Isn't she just the cutest thing? I colored her with copic markers, added some shine to her shoes with glossy accents--I love that stuff! Then I cut her out with a Nestabilitie die and layered her on a pink matching scalloped oval. I added some detail with some chalk around the edge, just to give it a little pop. I decided to give the card a little more detail by breaking up the patterned paper into three different strips. Cut the "Wrapped in Love" sentiment with a punch and added the pink pearls. I am hoping to post a few more of my Valentine's Day cards this week.
Enjoy!

Get well soon card

This is a get well soon card for a family member who has been under the weather. I am a running a little behind in completing projects and I'm truly hoping she is feeling much better and the card will be unnecessary!
The stamp is from The Greeting Farm. I love the Anya stamps. I colored her with Copic markers and used Spica Glitter pens on her shoes and the red cross on her hat. I used Glossy Accents on the blue portion of the hat. The scalloped circles were cut with Nestabilities dies in my Cuttlebug. I used my new MS punch for the loops.
Enjoy!

Whaley Love You!!!

This is my first post in a while! Things around my house have been crazy recently, as I'm sure they have been for you since the new year! This picture is of a card I made for our Granddaughter, Grace. The stamp is from Clear Dollar Stamps Winter Eskimo set. He's really cute! With the patterned paper and brad from Doodlebug Designs, it looks like a whole ocean of creatures are on the card! I used some solid cardstock in blue, green, and purple and dotted ribbon are from my stash. I think they finish the card neatly. Please comment!

Christmas Cards

I finally found the time and managed to get some Christmas cards done. I usually only have time to make and send about a dozen, but this year I decided to try to make each one a little different (they can't be an Angie's Original if their all the same, right?), which took me a little longer. But even though I spent a lot more time on it, I really am happy with the results. The first card I made to send out this holiday season is stamped with an image from The Cat's Pajama's; couldn't resist the bear! He's so cute! I also used Spellbinders Nestablities, a few Copic markers, some festive patterned paper and embellishments and such from my stash. I'm trying to get out the last few, hopefully I'll have them all sent out in time! Wish me luck!

If you have been with me for while, you may have seen the new updates. I've added a link to Cutter's Creek and also added the Cutter's Creek Design Team badge to my site! I've been selected as a member of the new Cutter's Creek design team! I had to design a card using my talent and some pieces I had, then send the card to the team to try and become a member. The card at the left is the one I submitted, the card that got me on the team! I used some holiday paper and a REALLY cute stamp, which I am in love with, by the way. I am so excited. Kim, the owner of Cutter's Creek, has the BEST customer service in the world and I couldn't ask for a better company to design for. I am really looking forward to this great opportunity, will keep you updated as we get going, so please check back! Hopefully, I can come up with some great designs to earn my place on the Design Team!
