Dragonfly Dreams in Dapper Denim

I really enjoy creating new cards with the new Dragon Dreams stamp set and the Detailed Dragonfly Thinlits.  I love how you can use the same stamp set and color and yet the cards are equally simple and pretty in their own way.

Paint Chip Inspiration #39: You Are Amazing

Sharing another paint chip card to inspire you.  I got this paint chip from my local hardware store... love the color combos.  I took 2 strips, one for the card base and one to punch out the butterflies.  I stamped the greeting with Stazon Black Ink.  You have to use Stazon since the paint chips have a sheen on them. 

The "You Are Amazing" greeting is from the new Occasions Catalog, All Things Thanks stamp set.

Throwback Thursday: Circle Snowman

Today I'm sharing a throwback project.  This cute snowman was made with various circle sizes that fold into eachother.  The circles stay together using a small brad.

Stampin With Scraps: Musical Note Tree Ornament

How cute is this musical note tree ornament.  I used paper scraps from This is Christmas Specialty DSP.  I sponged the edges with Crumb Cake ink to give it a little depth and then glued the scraps to a popsicle stick.  Added the gold cord and ribbon and Walla!

Home Sweet Home Congrats Card

Made this card for my brother and sister-in-law to celebrate their new home.  I made the house by punching out a small heart on Real Red card stock and then cut around the heard to make a 1" square piece.  I cut a triangle in Crumb Cake card stock for a roof.  The branches are from the Pretty Pines Thinlits.
