All You Need Is Love

Time for a new challenge at Just Us Girls. It's Color Week this week, and Sue is our host. 

I am knee deep into Valentines right now, so I decided to go that route with my card. I arranged strips of varying sizes in reds, pinks and grays on a piece of white cardstock, trimmed it down, then die cut it with a scalloped edge die. I cut a heart in the center, created a shaker, and finished it off with a sentiment that is perfect for my Beatle-lovin' Valentine...

It's a new month, and we have a new Guest Designer, Denise Morgans. Please head on over to the Just Us Girls Challenge Blog to see what Denise and the rest of the Design Team have made to spark your creativity. Come play with us!

Love Potion Shaker

It's that time...

I bought this Love Potion Shaker Die set last year at this time and never used it. That happens a lot. I was determined to give it some love this time around. I love the way it came out.

I chose to make a shaker card with one of the dies from the Stampendous Leaf Die Set. I cut the leaf from a panel of PTI White Linen cardstock and added a pocket of sequins behind it. I put a piece of watercolor cardstock that had been smooshed with various fall colors behind the pocket to give it a little background color. I then cut that panel with the large frome from Avery Elle Wonky Stitches. I added the Autumn Dancing sentiment from So Suzy Stamps.

Oh Snap!

It's a new month and that means a new challenge at Happy Little Stampers Christmas Challenge! The twist for August is SEQUINS. I wanted to do the twist, so I decided to create a shaker card. I used a pre-cut winow card from my stash for my card base. I made a shaker pouch with my Fuse tool and filled it with Pretty Pink Christmas sequins from Little Things From Lucy's Cards. I then used the gingerbread cookie and a sentiment from Ellen Hutson's Tis The Season (retired) by Julie Ebersole to complete my card. The images and sentiments in this set just crack me up.
