CZ Love You

To the Moon

December 15, 2021

Hi there! The latest To the Moon release with Simon Says Stamp is live and I’m sharing a couple of projects using some of these fun, new goodies.

SSS-CZ Love You, Layered Birdie, Layered Chickadee

My first card uses the CZ Love You word die along with the Layered Birdie & Layered Chickadee die sets. For the background I used some Honey Bee pattern paper and also added some Sweetheart & Cupid’s Kiss Sequins.

My next card uses the CZ Chunky Heart Trio die set with vellum & white glitter cardstock. For the sentiment I used the CZ Trio of Love die set with matte gold cardstock.

Circle Patterns

February 25, 2020

Hi there! Today I have a fun project to share with you that was inspired by a painting I saw on Instagram. The artist’s name is Angela Johal and below is her glorious acrylic masterpiece.

I wanted to try and adapt this onto a card. Wasn’t sure if it was possible, but I was going to try. I used 12 different shades of solid colored cardstock along with the Nested Circle dies to create the rings.

SSS-Nested Circle Dies, CZ Love You

For the sentiment I used the CZ Love You dies. If you look closely you can see that some of the rings…well, almost all of the rings are not matching up precisely. This bothers me to no end:) I don’t think I’ll be able to rest until I can get this idea with a cleaner result, but I am loving where this is headed.

Here’s a video to show you how I created this card.

That’s all for today! Thanks so much for stopping by!

Masking with Distress Oxide Sprays

February 27, 2019

Hi there! Today I have a couple projects to share with you that I’ve created experimenting with masking using Distress Oxide Sprays.

SSS-CZ Love You-Distress Oxide Sprays

For this first card I simply masked off straight lines and overlapped the sprays to give it that gorgeous combination of colors. The colors of Oxide Sprays that I used are: Spiced Marmalade, Picked Raspberry, Wilted Violet, Mermaid Lagoon & Cracked Pistachio.

For the sentiment I used the CZ Love You word dies along with a few Studio Katia sequins.

For this next card I used a heart mask that I created with one of the Ornate Love hearts dies and some acetate. This could be so much fun to do with various shapes like maybe triangles for a fun geometric design.

SSS-Everyday Words on a Line-Distress Oxide Sprays

For the sentiment I used one of the Everyday Words on a Line dies. Here’s a video to show you how I created these cards.

I’m feeling pretty much addicted to these oxide sprays at the moment, and have more ideas than time. If only I had a cook and a house cleaner and a nanny, lol! I hope you enjoyed! Thanks so much for stopping by!
