It's A Good Day To Be Happy

Hey everyone! Happy Sunday!

I know this isn't my usual day for posting, but I wanted 

to get this card linked up to the Mama Elephant April Challenge

as soon as possible -- the prize is a guest spot on their design team!

I'm sure you already know by the frequency I've been using their stamps

as of late that I am totally, head-over-heels in love with Mama Elephant!

So I just had to make a card as soon as I saw the inspiration photo.

I really love the soft hues of aqua and green against the white.

So I incorporated those into my card using my go-to set Up & Away,

along with the matching Up & Away dies, the cloud from the

Landscape Trio dies and my new favorite, the Femme Frames dies.

This is also Card #9 in my 2014 Spring Series on my YouTube channel.

I hope you enjoy the video!

Have an awesome day!

I Like You

Hey everyone!

Today I'm popping in to share my Spring 2014 Series Card #8!

I used an adorable stamp from the Sweet November Fairwee's line

called "Josie's Brella" and paired her up with a sentiment from 

Lawn Fawn's #awesome stamp set and clouds from the Spring Showers dies.

I also filmed it as a start-to-finish card with real-time coloring

with my Spectrum Noir Next Generation markers.

I hope you enjoy!

Spreadin' A Little Love

Hey everyone!

Oh goodness, I have fallen head over heels in love with

the Mama Elephant Up & Away stamp set this week.

Okay, so technically, I fell in love with it the minute I laid eyes on it

back when it was released a few months ago.

But for some reason, after I ordered it, it just sat and sat unused.

I think it was because it was so darn cute, and there was so much

stunning inspiration from other crafters using it,

that I wanted to be sure that I could come up with an equally stunning card.

This week I decided to just stamp out  bunch of the images and color for fun.

No design team deadlines, no challenges to enter, just for the sheer love of coloring.

And guess what? I ended up making THREE cards within 24 hours

AND I'M NOT DONE YET! Ha!

The third time I decided to film a video for y'all and do some 

real-time coloring, because I know you've been asking for it.

You'll get to see the second card at the start of the video too.

I hope you like them!

Enjoy the video and please don't forget

Oh Happy Day - Lawnscaping Challenge #78

Hey there! Welcome to Lawnscaping Challenge #78!

Today we are being sponsored by the wonderful folks at Lawn Fawn

who have generously offered up a FREE stamp set of the winners choice!

So if you know me and my style, you are probably aware that

CAS is NOT my thing at all.

I feel like my hands are being tied behind my back when I'm told

that I can't use patterned paper or embellishments! Lol!

I don't know what to do with myself!

But I'm always up for a challenge, so I decided to embrace it

and just do my best to keep my card as minimal as possible.

I'm happy with how it turned out!

I wanted to color my little birds from the Hello Sunshine set

to look like chickadees -- love them!

And since I wanted two of them to be singing to each other,

I brought in the music note from Winter Sparrows.

This is also the 5th installment in my 2014 Spring Card Series.

I hope you enjoy the video!

Watercolor Woodland Friends

Hey everyone, wow! Talk about a late post.

This was supposed to be up this morning but YouTube

wasn't finished with my video before I had to leave for work,

and I just returned home for the first time today,

so I was just now able to get it posted. 

I hope you're enjoying it whatever time you're reading this. :)

I am still in love with Mama Elephant 

and this Tree Friends set just really makes me happy!

I decided to watercolor a little scene using my Distress Markers,

This is Card #4 in my 2014 Spring Series.

Daffies For You

Happy Saturday morning, y'all!

Today, despite the snow and cold, I'm sharing a bright and springy card,

Card #3 in my 2014 Spring Card Series, as a matter of fact.

I used sweet Soufflé the Duck from the Popcorn the Bear

Someone Special stamp set by Crafter's Companion.

I colored him in with my Spectrum Noirs in shades:

LY1, LY2, LY3, OR1, OR2, DG2, DG3, DG4, 

CT3, CT4, CG3, CG4, IB1, and CR7 on 

Spectrum Noir Ultra Smooth White Cardstock.

I colored him in real-time, so you'll have to let me know

whether you prefer this version or when it's fast-forwarded.

Enjoy!

Such a versatile stamp set. 

You could do so many variations on this.

Enjoy This Day

Hey all, today I wanted to share a card I made using the

Paper Smooches "Flap Happy" stamp set along with my Twinkling H2Os.

(Yes, I know, I know, I'm obsessed.)

I ran into some difficulty while using the Butterflies 3 dies,

which turned out to be just consumer error. ;)

I had the die cuts upside down!

Anyway, I hope you enjoy the video,

which is also the start of my 2014 Spring Card Series.
