Challenges For Simply My Digital Studio

I having been having so much fun, and learning a lot by playing along with Simply My Digital Studio Group on Facebook. Last week's challenge was to create a pie shape to use on your page and the week was to use the freeform line tool to attach your text to a shape. Their tutorials and video are wonderful, there is so much information that is so helpful in creating your pages. Go to Facebook and see what next week's challenge is. You will love it!!

Just finished this cute card using Sizzix's Flip It Flower Die. My husband bought this for Christmas. I really have had fun with this die, really cute cards. They are so easy and fast to make. Make sure to check the Sizzix Blog for more cute cards using the Flip It Dies!!

Timeless Tuesday Challenge #216 ~ Frame It!

Hi all, it's time for another Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge.  Today it is all about frames.  You will create a project or card using any type of frame.  I choose to use Spellbinder's square frames in two different sizes.  I used Flourishes Butterflies and Blossoms stamp set, pearls from one of the 1 2 3 Kits and the Cuttlebug Honeycomb embossing folder.  I used  Sakura Glaze Pens to color my image.  I have never used them to color an image before, but love how pretty it turned out.  We are enjoying some really nice spring weather here in Texas and I thought this was a perfect spring image.  Enjoy the rest of the week and remember Keep Stamping!!

Timeless Tuesday Challenge ~ #215 Around The House

Happy Tuesday all!  It time for another challenge at Flourishes and today it is all about finding something around the house to use on your project.  I found a small piece of floral wire and decided it would be perfect to suspend my butterfly from.  I used the Sizzix Pop N Cuts flower diecut to create my card.  The butterflies are from Flourishes Butterflies and Blossoms stamp set.  On the front of the card I used Stampin Up's Manhattan Embossing folder and some watercolors to color the flowers.  The sentiment is from Flourishes Botanical Bookplates.  I made this card for my sister's birthday, hope it brightens her day.  Enjoy the rest of the week!

Just Had To Share!!

I just had to share this cute birthday card I made with Karen Burniston's Pop N Cuts!  They are just so darn cute and so much fun to make.  I made this card for my grandson to take to a birthday party on Sat.  I saw a cute card on the Sizzix Blog and thought that would be a perfect card for him to take!  I cut the balloons from my Basic George Circut cartridge, for the banner I used the Sizzlits Flagpole set.  I cut the card using the circle base die from Sizzix and the Happy Birthday was cut using Spellbinders Label die set.  For the front of the card I used the Cuttlebug Happy Birthday embossing folder and cute little birthday cake stamp(not sure where I got it).  I just think it is adorable.  Hope you are all having a wonderful week!!

Easter Pop N Cut Cards

Well all the Pop N Cut Easter Cards were a big hit!!!  My little grandsons just loved their cards.  If you haven't seen Karen Burniston's Blog, you must check it out.  She has the most amazing tutorials and video on how to use the Pop N Cut dies.  I just love them all and have so much fun making them!!! 

Summer Lovin' Challenge

It's April and time for Release Week at Flourishes!  They are kicking it off with a challenge using the above picture. Using the colors in the picture or keeping summer in mind to create your project.  I order the Summer Blossoms stamp set in December and thought what a perfect set for this challenge.  I stamped the image with Versamark and used chalk to color in the image. The sentiment is from Botanical Bookplate set.  I just loved how this turned out so pretty and the little butterflies just finished it off.  I think this really captured the look of summer.  I just can't wait to see all the new releases at Flourishes, so make sure to hop over to their site and check them all out!!!
