Beauty Baby Blue Card

Beauty Baby Blue Card
Hello all!
 
All those who see my work occasionally know that I always make a mistake or two but I end up loving those mistakes. For this card, I used the wrong glue on some of my flowers and when I added glitter, the glitter clumped up into balls. So once the flowers dried, I added some all purpose glue and just poured the glitter on! Take a look below.

Best Day Ever Card

Best Day Ever
For the next four posts, I will be showing a few examples of my attempt to using the heat embossing technique. I have been practicing on different types of paper and the pens and ink chosen does matter! I tried using the watermark pen and it dries quite fast in my case. I bought a Ranger Ink pen and it seems to work better. Of course, I try writing fast before it dries so my cursive does not look stunning, but I tried. Practice and a good little example for those who haven't tried this.

Wedding Card

Wedding Card
Today, I would like to show you an example of a Wedding Card that I completed with very few flowers! I usually use tons of mulberry paper flowers, but this time I decided to work on using different paper styles, colors, and die-cuts. I am normally a straight forward person and like using patterned cards ready for decorating, but I measured and cut my own and tried different styles and arrangements for this particular card. Take a look below.

  • Square bling rhinestone
  • ONE mulberry paper flower
  • TWO mulberry paper leaves
  • Wedding Bells chipboard die-cut
  • Damask lace

And a little update about Rosie my new puppy...
 
Wedding Card_CdeBacaCraftsCard
Rosie just had surgery on her eye.

Here's my cat - Ike - the KING of everything... He doesn't like new things... He decided to scratch poor Rosie's pupil out.

This is the look he gave me when I told him Rosie had to have surgery and that it isn't cheap.
Rosie is already home and doing fine!
