Freshly Made Sketches #300

Happy Monday!! Just popping in to help celebrate Freshly Mades Sketches Anniversary. It is their 300th sketch-how exciting is that?

I chose to make a really simple card, using pre-made die cuts and papers from Doodlebug Design, as well as a stamped sentiment by Altenew.

Who says a card has to take hours to make? I adore this "Cream and Sugar" collection by Doodlebug that has been sitting on my desk for MONTHS. I decided I needed to use it!!

I did make a boo boo, as you can see. For those of you who LOVE Nuvo Crystal drops-how do you get them to be flat? I got a little extra pink on the cheeks due to a little thread. I was so mad!! Even erasing it with a sand eraser did not help.

Here is the anniversary sketch #300 from Freshly Made Sketches.

That is all from me today. Thank you for stopping by and have a FABULOUS day!!

Happy Valentine's Day!!

The day is finally here. Happy Valentine's Day!! I am going to post the last two cards for this "holiday."

The inspiration for both these cards were Cameo die cuts that I bought from the Silhouette web site. These cards are for Project Life but I think they are perfect for cards.

My first card I combined Bo Bunny and Doodlebug products to create a cute Valentine card. The main image is a die cut that I overlaid on a piece of white card sock and then filled with the red sequins.

I used a Doodlebug Valentine ticket with a Bo Bunny sticker mounted on adhesive foam for the sentiment. This card was so simple but has a big impact, don't you agree?

My second card was a bit more time consuming. Again, I die cut the main image. I laid it over a piece of card stock that had different patterns of Washi tape that were adhered to it in an ombre color scheme. Light pink at the bottom with red at the top.

The heart die cut was adhered with foam adhesive so the tape is more in the background.

I then looped pink twine around the card, tied a red tag and button. I then mounted the whole thing against a white card that I had adhered Doodlebug heart paper too. The card needed a little something so the last thing I did was to adhere a flag to the front. I LOVE how this card came out!! I think it is my favorite of all the ones I created this year.

I hope this day is filled with love and chocolate!! Happy Valentine's Day!1
