Love U Card

Happy Saturday, Everyone! 

I hope you all are enjoying your weekend so far. 

I am SO happy to be back to "normal" and am able to craft again! That flu was NO joke!! Anyway, today I'm sharing a sweet Valentine's Day card or an everyday love card with all of you. I seen this idea on Pinterest and thought that it was SUPER cute, so I decided to scrap-lift the idea and use this for my swaps cards this month. 

I created the top card layer using my Silhouette Cameo and my Make the Cut program. I also cut the hearts and the letter U with my Cameo as well. I inked the edges of the hearts and the "U" to give them a bit of a pop. I stamped "love" on the banner and  added a pop dot underneath to give it some dimension. I added some bling to the letter U and adhered it to the banner. 

For this card I used the following products 

Heidi Swapp designer paper (2009 - it's an OLDIE)

Recollections bling 

Pink by Design Stamps 

Silhouette Cameo 

Thanks for stopping by today! I hope you've enjoyed my card and are getting ready to start creating some of your own Valentine's cards. It will be here before we know it! 

Hope you all have a scrap happy day!!

Hugs, 

Kristy

So Peachy Keen!!!

Good Morning -  I am SO super excited to share my first card using some Peachy Keen stamps! OMG! I am SO in love, SO hooked, and gonna be SO broke now, lol. I had the so much fun playing over the weekend!!  Sheesh... I sit and ask myself WHY it took me SO long to swoop up some of these cute little faces! I'm glad I have some now, but I have to say... they're going to be so hard to put down! 

So, enough babbling and on to the card.

Seriously... I LOVE this stinkin' Egg!! This was my first try with stamping on ribbon. I wish I would have stamped it before I cut and tied it - but it was an afterthought. : )

Follow Your Rainbow

Howdy All  -- I just wanted to share a quick card with you that I made. This card is super simple and to the point. I wanted the rainbow and the sentiment to be the focal point of the card, so I kept it simple! I was SO super excited when I sat down to create this card because I was FINALLY able to grab me some PBD (Pink by Design) stamps and play with them!! They are SO fun and SO easy to use! I cannot wait to play some more with them! I need LOTS of stamping practice, lol. I've never been much of a card maker,  but in the last year I've grown to love them, and I was NEVER a stamper so I need some work. lol. : ) 

I think I will be sending this card to Emily in a couple of weeks as well. If you haven't read Emily's story yet, be sure to read her story HERE and send her a card! 

Here it is...
