Hello! Today I’m excited to join Pinkfresh Studio for a blog hop featuring their new Out of the Ordinary collection.
My first card features the Escape the Ordinary stamp set along with the coordinating Escape the Ordinary die.
For the background I blended distress inks onto bristol paper. I stamped the images with Memento ink and colored them with Copics and added a few stickers from the Escape the Ordinary collection. The mountains are from the Chipboard Sticker set and the stars are from the Puffy Stickers set.
This next card uses the gorgeous 12 x 12″ Escape the Ordinary pattern paper and the Stitched Hearts Stickers.
I have to take a moment to talk about these amazingly delicous Gold Foiled Wood Alphabet Stickers. I need a lifetime supply of these little beauties. The Stitched Heart Stickers are stunningly beautiful, too. They are layered and stitched with gorgeous colors, vellum and patterns.
GIVEAWAY!
Pinkfresh Studio will be giving away two amazing prize packages!!!

Hi there! Today I’m sharing this project over on the Mama Elephant blog featuring the sweet Little Girl Agenda set.
To begin I stamped the Little Girl Agenda images with Memento ink and colored them with Copics. Then I used the coordinating Little Girl Agenda creative cuts to die cut the images out.
I used one of the Frame Tags-Chelsea creative cuts to create the opening on Soft Stone cardstock.
For the sentiment I use one of the Trio Winow Cover creative cuts with several colors of cardstock and popped them up onto the window panel.
Sending you big, colorful hugs today! Thanks so much for stopping by!

Hello! Today I’m excited to join Neat & Tangled in a blog hop to celebrate their 5th birthday!
My project features a few of the awesome new August release products. For the background I blended distress inks using the Balloon Trio stencil onto bristol paper.
I used the Hooray word die for the sentiment and stacked four together for dimension and then for top die cut I used some glittered cardstock.
On the inside of the card I stamped the sentiment from the Hooray stamp set and blended a few more balloons with distress inks using the Balloon Duo stencils. I popped up the panel onto some striped pattern paper and added a few sequins from the Like Magic sequin mix.
GIVEAWAY:
Neat & Tangled is giving away one $50 and one $100 gift certificate to the Neat and Tangled shop. Winners will be chosen from comments all along the hop all week long.

Hi there! Laura here and today I’m sharing another project featuring the adorable Little Boy Agenda stamp set along with the coordinating Little Boy Agenda Creative Cuts.
To begin I stamped several images using the Little Boy Agenda set with Memento ink, colored them with Copics and used the coordinating Little Boy Agenda Creative Cuts to die cut them out. I also used one of the Mini Tags Creative Cuts to die cut six colorful little tags.
For the background I blended distress inks onto bristol paper, and then I flicked on some water and diluted distress inks with a wet brush.
I popped up the cute images onto the Mini Tags and then onto the ink blended panel.
I love how the Mini Tags sort of frame the images as well as adding color. To finish it off I stamped a sentiment in the middle from Sunday Sentiments.
These sweet little faces from Little Boy Agenda never cease to melt my heart. Thanks so much for stopping by!

Hi there! Today I’m excited to join Simon Says Stamp for their Encouraging Words Release Blog Hop. Simon hosted two blog hops for this release. You can head over to the Simon Says Stamp blog to see yesterday’s line up of amazing designers.
I’ve been wanting to create one of those “oh-so-cool” pop-up box cards for a while. I thought these new Space Journey dies would work perfect for creating a colorful galaxy on a pop-up card.
For the sentiment I used the You’re a Star die. How cool are these colorful planets? I used several colors of Simon Says Stamp cardstock along with coordinating ink colors to blend on each planet for some added interest. I also added some Wink of Stella to the stars for shimmer.
Here’s a video to show you how I made this pop-up box card.
GIVEAWAY!
Simon Says Stamp is giving away a $25 gift certificate to each stop on the hop. Leave me a comment for your chance to win! Winners will be posted on the Simon Says Stamp blog on Tuesday.

Hi there! Today I have a few cards to share featuring a few of the gorgeous new product just release by Simon Says Stamp for their Encouraging Words release.
This is such a fun release with a little bit of something for everyone! I fell in love with the gorgeous Carolyn Stencil and used it to create these cards along with the Thank You Teacher stamp set.
Using the Carolyn Stencil I blended distress inks onto watercolor cardstock. Then I embossed the sentiment in white onto vellum. I carefully added teeny tiny drops of glue behind the letters so that it wouldn’t show and then to finish it off I added some Nuvo drops. Using the largest Nested Circle dies I curved the top and bottom edges.
Using the same Carolyn Stencil I masked off four parts and ink blended with distress inks. Then I took another Nested Circle die to create a window for this fantastic sentiment.
I was able to use the positive part from the leftover die cut above on this card below. I love it when I can get two cards for the price of one!
Again I using the Thank You Teacher set to emboss a sentiment on black and popped it up with foam tape with a few sparkling clear sequins to finish it off.
You can also find out more about this awesome new release over on the Simon Says Stamp blog. Thanks so much for stopping by and remember…You Matter♥

Hi there! Have you seen the new release by Cathy Zielski for Simon Says Stamp? It’s fun, fresh, modern, sarcastic & awesome….just like her:)
I’ve created a couple of projects using two of her new sets…Yay & the Everett Alphas.
I spelled out “woot” with the Everett Alphas and embossed them in clear. Then I used distress inks and post it tape to blend a smokin’ rainbow background. The “#nailedit” is from the Yay set. For the card below, I embossed the “yes” in clear, blended more distress ink over top and then die cut it out with one of the Nested Circle dies.
I absolutely LOVE Cathy’s handwriting and her humor even more! Make sure and check out the Simon Says Stamp blog as well as Cathy’s blog for more info! Thanks so much for stopping by!

Hi there! Popping in to share a cutie patootie little project featuring the Magical Birthday stamp set by Simon Says Stamp. I’ll never ever ever outgrow unicorns & rainbows. In fact yesterday I persuaded my Emma to get some Lisa Frank folders for her school supplies. Her arm was easily twisted:)
I stamped the images with Memento ink, colored them with Copics and fussy cut them out. For the background I blended distress inks onto Bristol paper followed by some flicks of water. I also smooshed the distress inks onto an acrylic block and with a wet brush I flicked some distress paint onto the panel.
I added some wink of stella to the unicorn’s tail & mane followed by some delicious dots of Nuvo Drops.
Wishing you a fantastical day! Thanks so much for stopping by!
