All You Need Is Love

Thanks for stopping by! I hope life is good in your little corner of the world. Today I'm sharing a card made with the Love Is Kind Collection. This is the latest release from Pretty Little Studio and it's my new favorite!

This collection has all the extras you've come to expect, but you'll also find some new here! Like the die cut journaling card I used on my card today. It's printed on one side and plain white on the other with the die cut word LOVE! I added pattern paper underneath so the letters look pieced.

I added a die cut border along the left edge of the card and a sentiment tab along the top. Double stacked butterflies and an affectionate sentiment complete the theme.

I really love the papers in this collection. Many of them look pieced but are actually printed with several patterns on each so it gives the look of a fussy pieced card when it's actually printed that way.

I hope you stop by the store and explore this new collection. I think you'll be glad you did because it's gorgeous!

Smooth Sailing

Today I'm playing along at Inspiration Station Challenge where this is the mood board for this challenge...

We're going tropical, beach, seaside with this gorgeous photo! I picked up on the blues and greens to create my card!

I started with the Pink & Main Smooth Sailing sailboat that I colored with alcohol markers. I inked it in blues and greens! To create a focal point I double cut two nesting Stitched Circles to create a frame in white.

The background is an embossing folder called Beach Waves. First I applied distress ink to a panel of white cardstock. Next I embossed it, and finally I sanded it to reveal the white core paper under the ink.

The finishing touch was a sentiment from the same stamp set and circle for a sun and a sprinkle of sticky gems.

I hope you have a great care free day!

Cocoa Wonderland

Today I'm playing at The 12 Months' of Christmas Challenge where it's ALWAYS Christmas! I've got a new die set from Spellbinders called Cocoa Wonderland that I wanted to play with!

This cute little cocoa mug is Santa face shaped. and comes with lots and lots of treats to stuff in his cap of whipped cream!

I like that the face die includes an embossed outline to help you place the smaller die cut eyes, brows, and cheeks.

The background is an embossing folder impression called Cameo Christmas. The sentiment is from another Spellbinders die set called Gifting Bows. The finishing touch was a sprinkle of blue gems for some sparkly magic!

I hope you can catch a break and do some crafting. It's sure hot here and it's nice to relax and cool off indoors!
