In All Your Ways


Hi there!  Hope you are having a great weekend so far!  Here is another card I made with the new set from Our Daily Bread designs called For the Graduate.  I used this weeks sketch at SCS and the Free For All Challenge to use buttons and bows.  I wanted the image to be muted and so I just sponged it with Blush Blossom, Soft Sky, Mellow Moss, and Soft Suede inks.  Thanks for stopping by!

Here is what I used for this card:

Neenah Cream cardstock
K&Co Designer Paper
SU! Soft Suede Cardstock
Cuttlebug Textiles Embossing Folder
 SU! Inks Listed Above
Spellbinders Petite Oval and Petite Scalloped Oval and Lattice dies
Lace, Ribbon, Button and Pearl

Midnight Madness #54


Hey y'all!  I had a chance to play with this week's Midnight Madness sketch!  That always makes for a good day!  And I just love what buttons and pearls can do for a card!  And look at this pretty vintage-y flower that Priscilla sent to me as part of my Midnight Madness Princess award goodies!  Thank you Priscilla!  This Corrie Ten Boom quote is so beautiful and is part of the new set from Our Daily Bread designs called As You Graduate.  I used Spellbinders dies to cut out the quote and the mat and then I used another Spellbinders die to emboss the designer paper underneath the ovals.  
Thanks for another great sketch Priscilla!  

Here are the supplies I used:

Neenah Cream Cardstock
K&Co Designer paper
Spellbinders Petite Oval,  Petite Scalloped Oval and Labels 10
Flower from Priscilla
Ribbon, Lace and Buttons

The Lord Has Plans


Hi everyone!  Hope your Saturday is great!  Here is a card I made for the Midnight Madness sketch this week!  I used a scripture included in a great new set from Our Daily Bread designs called For the Graduate.  It is backed with a pretty border stamp also from an ODBD set called Vine Borders. I made a pretty lace flower to go with the Hero Arts flowers, one of which is sprayed with Brick Glimmer Mist to match the designer paper!  I used my Bow Easy to make the pretty little bows along the side. Thanks for coming by for a visit!  I'll see you again soon!

Neenah Cream cardstock
Paper Studio Mirabelle designer paper
Spellbinders Oval and Scalloped Rectangle dies

May He Give


Good morning!  It's almost the weekend!!!  Hope you will all have a great one!  
I wanted to share this card with you that I made with one of the new sets from 
and was designed by Dina Kowal!  She designed this set so that it could be split up in several ways,
which makes this such a versatile set to have in your collection!  For this card, I split it in half 
and included the scripture in between the two halves.  To keep it simple, 
I just sponged the image and included a pretty bow and 
some pearls that I colored with a black copic marker. 

Check out how two of my fellow ODBD sisters used this set:

Isn't that cool?

Here are the supplies I used for this card:

Time for some Midnight Madness!


Good morning again!  This is my second post of the day!  Unusual for me huh?!  Well, it was time for some Midnight Madness!!!  Did you know that I am now a princess?  A Midnight Madness Princess that is!  If you've never played with the Midnight Madness ladies, what are you waiting for?  Priscilla is celebrating her one year blogaversary this month.  I received the Princess award for playing in the weekly sketch challenges almost every week for their first year!!!  You can see the award on my sidebar!  Thanks Priscilla and MM Team!!!  I am so excited!  Also, on my sidebar, you can see the blog candy they are giving away this month! Whoa!  What a pile of goodies!!!!  Wouldn't it be fun to win that?!!!  Ok, back to the card!  I used one of the new releases from Our Daily Bread designs called As You Graduate.  I shortened the image from the top to fit the card design.  I used my Stamp-a-ma-jig to get the sentiment just right.  I sewed the buttons on by hand!  So I am also entering this into the Stampin' Sisters in Christ challenge this week to use stitching.  (I think they really meant with a sewing machine but this is all I can do! LOL!)  

 
 
Anyway, hope you all have a great Friday and thanks for stopping by for a second time today!

Our Daily Bread designs May Sneak Peek


Hi there!!!  I've got a sneak peek for you today!  It's almost May if you can believe it and so it's almost time for more ODBD stamps!  Yay!!!  This card features one of the new sets called As You Graduate.  The image and scripture are stamped with Stazon ink onto vellum paper.  I layered this onto a Kraft piece and then framed it with a punched border.  I stamped the image again onto Kraft and cut out the butterflies to add to the image. They are sprayed with Suede Glimmer mist and it's such a great match to the Soft Suede cardstock!  Can you believe there is no embossing and no ribbons or pearls on this card?!!!  LOL!!  I just added the photo corners to finish it off.  Now, don't forget to come back on Saturday for our release day hop! Can't wait for you to see all the new sets!!!  Thanks for stopping by!

Here are the supplies I used for this card:
ODBD As You Graduate
Soft Suede, Kraft and Black cardstock
Vellum
Stazon ink
SU! border punch and photo corner punch

Recycled Graduation Card

I have been putting off making this card because I just could not figure out what I wanted to do. I almost bought a card just to have it done! And then it hit me! I cut apart the invitation and die cut the circle around the coat of arms with a nestie circle. Added the zig-zag circle, and embossed a square nestie to frame it. I used a ruler to carefully edge the white layer with a matallic silver pen. Then I used the Stamp-a-ma-jig to place the sentiment. How's that for recycling?!!! Thanks again for taking a moment to check it out! Have a great week!

Stamps-SU! Congrats
Paper-White, Brilliant Blue
Accessories- cuttlebug and nesties, SAMJ, silver metallic pen, foam tape
