Flamingo Watercolor Card

You don't need fancy or expensive supplies to create wonderful handcrafted card.  I watercolored this card using Crayola Fine Line Markers.  I embellished with Ranger Enamel Accents, Spectrum Noir Clear Overlay Sparkle marker and a white Jelly Roll pen.






Cricut Flower Shaker Card


I searched Cricut Access for a simple flower.  I sliced the flower shape out of the green card front panel and cut it.  I also cut the flower shape out of two pieces of craft foam. Be sure to use the Custom setting on your machine and set it to foam.  Also I used my deep cut blade housing, but I'm not sure it is necessary.  

The best way to put the layers together is using a Xyron sticker maker.  This gives solid adhesive coverage on the foam which will assure good adhesion and no gap areas where your shaker bits could escape.

The Happy Birthday and butterflies were also found on Cricut Access.

I used a Spectrum Noir Clear Overlay Sparkle marker for the shimmer and Ranger Enamel Accents for the dots.



For the inside I used the leftover flower pieces and another butterfly.  I inked the edges and stamped the Happy Birthday in Simon Says Stamp's Watermelon hybrid ink.  I stamped the cupcake with Simon's Cobblestone's ink and colored it with Prismacolor pencils.  For embellishments on the inside I again used the SN Clear Overlay Sparkle marker, Sakura Stardust pens and Sakura Glaze pens.

Simon Says Stamp Haul May 2017

Stocking Up & Organization

If a haul had a theme then this one would definitely be Stocking Up & Organization! :)  With the addition of the new Oxide Inks I needed some organization in my Distress drawer and the mini organizing tins fit the bill!

It's so hard to decide what sequins to buy....they are all soooo pretty!  And I just love the packages with mixed sizes. 

And of course I had to feed my addition for scripty font word dies! LOL

 I also got a Signo Uni-ball white pigment ink pen.  The opacity of this pen seems to be better than the white jelly roll pen I have been using.  And I also got a re-inker for my vintage photo distress ink.
