Paper Issues - Get Me to the Alter on Time Challenge

Hi everyone!

When I ordered the Pretty Little Studio Shine Bright collection, I had completely different pictures in mind to use with it. Then I noticed the 'Get Me to the Alter on Time' challenge at Paper Issues and realized that this collection is perfect for wedding pictures! So I printed a bunch of our wedding pics and made a couple layouts.

So far I only had done a couple pictures of our wedding in my travel journal last year, but no 12x12" layouts yet. We didn't hit our one year anniversary yet, so I'm still quite on time LOL. Today I'm sharing the first layout I made.

Thank you for stopping by and have a great day!

Cards - Altenew

Hi everyone,

Today I have some cards to share that I made mixing up the Altenew Beautiful Day and Peony Bouquet stamp and die sets. It still amazes me how easy it is to create gorgeous flowers with stamps like these. And all these sets mix and match perfectly! On all cards I used Distress Oxide inks.

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy your Sunday!

Layout - Summer

Hi everyone,

I've made a layout again! It has been a while since I had quite some cards to make. I just made this one for fun, using the Simple Stories Sunshine & Blue Skies collection, available at Paper Issues. The picture is taken on our porch, where Blink always picks the sunny spot to relax. Total island girl who enjoys the heat!

Thank you for stopping by and enjoy your weekend!

Card - Feel better soon

Hi everyone!

Today I have another card to share that I've made upon request. This time it had to be a card for a man, which I find so much harder to do. Colors for a man are obvious, but where you can get away with any flower or cute image for women, you don't have that many options for men. On top of that, I mostly have nautical themed stamps, so I'm basically stuck to boats, anchors etc. for masculine cards.

I started the card with Vicki Boutin blue crayons and her bubble stencil to make a background. Then I stamped the sail boat from 49 and Market and the sentiment from Technique Tuesday with Archival Jet Black. The Lawn Fawn Gotta Have Gingham paper pack is all masculine colors, so I covered the front of my card with a piece of that and put the stamped white cardstock on top of it with foam tape for dimension.

Thank you for stopping by and have a great day!

Lawn Fawn - Mermaid Birthday cards

Hi everyone!

The two birthday cards I have to share today are made upon request for some twin girls who are totally in love with anything mermaid. One loves pink, the other purple so it was an easy request :-)
Besides the Lawn Fawn Mermaid for You set, I used Ahoy Matey, So Jelly, Wave Borders and Hillside Borders. The backgrounds are done with Distress Oxide inks.

Thank you for stopping by and have a great day!
