CC Designs May Release Preview Day #1

Hello!  It's almost time for the CC Designs May Release!  Today, I'm sharing this adorable Cute Birds Stamp Set as well as the Clouds and Grasses Stencil.  Both will be released Thursday, May 2nd!  For my card, I decided to create a little tree branch scene.  I used the cloud side of my stencil to sponge in some blue sky on my background.  Then I stamped out my images, colored them up with my Copics, and cut them out using the coordinating dies.  I layered them on top of a tree branch die I had in my stash and stamped my sentiment in the left hand corner.  Then I added a few of the butterflies to finish it all off.  I just love how cute this turned out.  These birds are absolutely adorable!  


Thank you so much for stopping by!  Be sure to pop over to the CC Designs Blog to see all other other design team creations!

La-La Land Crafts This Is Me

Hello!  Today, I'm here sharing another fun card from the NEW April Release from La-La Land Crafts!  I used the I Can and I Will stamp set along with several of the new dies to create an encouragement card.  First, I layered up some patterned papers, then I colored my image and die cut it using the new oval die.  I layered that on top of a yellow scalloped oval and mounted that using foam tape.  I die cut my doily from some bright pink card stock and layered that in behind.  Then I stamped out my sentiment and added that to the bottom.  Some die cut stars with glitter stickles finish it all off.

Club La-La Land Crafts Ohh La-La!

Hello!  Today, I'm back sharing two more fun cards from the Club La-La Land April Kit!  For my first card, I create a little hillside scene complete with rolling hills, the Eiffel Tower, and some puffy white Clouds.  To create this card, I used some light pink patterned paper and layered on my hills and grass across the bottom.  Then I die cut the Eiffel Tower from black card stock and adhered it to the right side of the card.  Then I added a few die cut clouds in the sky.  I stamped out my poodles and colored them up with Copics, then cut them out with my Scan N Cut 2.  I popped them up on the card with some foam tape, added my sentiment, and layered the whole scene on top of a black scalloped rectangle.  Then I layered in some ribbon, die cut roses, and mounted the whole thing on some Paris themed patterned paper.

For my next card, I used Marci in Paris.  I colored her up with my Copics and cut her out using my Scan N Cut 2.  Then I trimmed a piece of teal patterned paper into a rectangle and used the reverse harlequin die to cut the left side.  I mounted that on black card stock and layered some pink roses on top.  Then I layered up several pieces of patterned paper across the bottom of the card and added my Paris sentiment in pink.  For the Eiffel Tower, I used silver glitter cardstock.  Then I popped Marci on to my card using foam tape, added some enamel dots, and there you go!

La-La Land Crafts Sympathy

Hello!  Today, I'm sharing a monochromatic sympathy card using the new SYMPATHY set from La-La Land Crafts.
For my card, I stamped out my background using grey ink and trimmed it into a rectangle. Then I matted it on a scalloped rectangle cut from white card stock.  Then I stamped out my image, colored it up, and fussy cut it out.  Then I popped it up on a die cut oval and adhered it to my panel with foam tape.  Then I die cut my sentiment and popped that up with foam tape as well.  I stamped "with" above it with black ink.  Then I finished it all off with some faux pearls.

CC Designs Hippo Birdie Two Ewe

Hello!  Today, I'm stopping by to share a fun little birthday card using the NEW Hippo Birdie Two Ewe stamp set from CC Designs.  This set is so much fun and has limitless possibilities!  

For my card, I decided to create a little outdoors scene.  I used the In & Out Squares die to frame out my scene and die cut a blue card stock square to fit on top of it.  Then I die cut two pieces of grass and tucked in some dark blue card stock to look like water.  I stamped out my images, colored them up, cut them out, and adhered them to the card using foam tape.  Then i added a few clouds, a sweet little sentiment, and some bees from the previously released April and May stamp set.  Since this is a birthday card, I decided to mount my little scene on a larger piece of multi-colored polka dot paper.

La-La Land Crafts April Release Good Vibes Only!


Hello!  Hope you are having a fabulous Wednesday!  Today I'm sharing another amazing stamp set from La-La Land Crafts.  This beautiful stamp is called Good Vibes Only!  For my project, I decided to decorate a travelers notebook insert.  First, I used the new All About Lace Layering Stencil to create a beautiful background design on the kraft insert.  Then I die cut a pretty doily using the Mandala Doily Die.  I stamped my image, colored with Copics, and die cut that using the new Double Stitched Ovals Die.  Then I layered that on top of some soft green card stock cut with the new scalloped ovals die.  I set that aside and stamped the You Inspire Me Background stamp on some textured cream cardstock and heat embossed that with gold embossing powder.  You can't quite tell that it's supposed to be a marble design, but the outcome was still quite stunning.  Then I trimmed that into a rectangle and layered it on top of a brown die cut scalloped rectangle.  Once I had all these pieces ready, I started layering them all together and adhering them to my travelers notebook.  For my final touches, I stamped out the word "beautiful" and die cut it out using the Scroll Banner Die.  I popped that on top with some foam tape, added some pretty hibiscus flowers as well as some greenery, and finished it all off with some faux pearl stickers.

La-La Land Crafts April Release I Can and I Will


Hello!  I'm back today sharing two more awesome stamp sets from the April Release and La-La Land Crafts!  Today I'm featuring I Can and I Will Clear Stamp Set as well as the NEW Filler Words-Print Clear Stamp Set. 

For my card, I first stenciled a black and white background using the Harlequin Stencil.  Then I stamped out my image and colored her up with my Copics.  I die cut her into a rectangle using my scalloped rectangles die and stamped the sentiment from the Filler Words set.  I layered that on a piece of black cardstock and set it to the side.  Then I die cut the Mandala Die from hot pink card stock and cut it into 2 pieces.  I separated the pieces and adhered them to my background so that each one touched the outsides of the card.  I cut a strip of white cardstock and layered that across the middle and adhered a piece of polka-dot ribbon to the top of it.  Then I popped my rectangle image on top with foam tape and added a pretty paper flower and some die cut greenery.
