Good morning everyone. Today I am playing along with the JustRite Friday Challenge - Anything but Square" - Create a card or project in any shape but square.
My card base is created using Spellbinders Floral Ovals with glitter applied to the edges. The next layer was created using the JustRite Elegant Fronds background stamp, stamped with VersaMagic Aloe Vera and diecut with Spellbinders Classic Ovals. The next layer is diecut with Spellbinders Floral Ovals with more glitter added. The inner layer was created using the JustRite Elegant Fronds background, stamped with VersaMagic Aloe Vera and diecut with Spellbinders Classic Ovals. The sentiment comes in the Warm and Cozy Medallion Labels set, stamped with Memento Bamboo Leaves.
The strands of pearls that are added along the outer edges of the Classic Ovals were purchased from Sharon Johnson's Stamp Simply Ribbon Store. They come in a strand making it very easy to apply to any project. The beautiful green bow at the top of my card is also some great ribbon from Sharon's Stamp Simply Ribbon Store. I have always been extremely ribbon/bow challenged but once I got this awesome ribbon I figured out why I have always been bow challenged - I needed the right kind of ribbon!!
Be sure to give the JustRite Friday challenge a try - you could win some really cool stamps!!
Thanks for stopping in for a visit. My weekend will consist of a birthday party on Saturday for our Jack Russell Terrier Zoe who is celebrating her first birthday. And on Sunday my oldest daughter and her fiance' are coming to my house to work on wedding flower arrangements. I guess my weekend will be busy!!! I hope you all have a great weekend too.

The Best........
Good morning everyone. Welcome to the last day of releases from JustRite. Today's release set is called "Summer Words" and comes in a clear set. This set has some awesome sentiments perfect for Graduation, Father's day, Summer scrapbook pages, etc.
I decided to create a Mother's Day card today. My background paper is stamped using the new JustRite Cozy Plaid background stamp, colored with copics. The corners are punched using Martha Stewart Modern Garland Corner Punch. The medallion in the center comes in 2 different JustRite sets - Starburst Medallions and Warm & Cozy Medallions and both are diecut using JustRite Custom Nested Medallion Labels dies. The sentiment at the top of the card is included in the Vintage Rose Medallions set and diecut with the new JustRite Vintage Label and Banners die. The sentiment at the bottom of the card is included in the Summer Words clear set and diecut with Spellbinders Labels 13.
The pretty pink bow was made using some of the awesome ribbon from Sharon Johnson's Stamp Simply Ribbon store. I also made the corsage pin with some pearls and beads that I had.

Congratulations Heather!!!
Today is a very special day for my entire family. My oldest daughter is graduating from Husson University with a Master's degree in Business Administration and a Bachelor's Degree in Paralegal Studies. She has been on the dean's list every semester during her college years as well as working full time. We are extremely proud of her. She has worked very hard to accomplish this and will hopefully be rewarded with a great job that she loves to do.
All of the elements for my card were created using my Cricut Expression along with the cartridges - Everyday Paper Dolls and Base Camp.

JRC Challenge #072 - Give A Gift
Good morning everyone. Today is another day of JustRite releases combined with the JustRite Friday Challenge #072 - to create a 3D gift. The stamp sets released today are Botanical Medallions and Banners, Heart Scroll Background, and Classic Art Deco Lace Edges One.
I decided to decorate a candle. I love to decorate candles - I think it is a really nice personalized gift that everyone will love to receive. Of course, they are not meant to burn but to use only as a home decor item. These are very easy to do - all you need is some white tissue paper.
I chose the new Heart Scroll Background stamp for my candle. It is stamped directly onto white tissue paper using Memento Danube Blue. All you need to do next is hold the stamped tissue paper onto the candle and "melt" it onto the candle using a heat gun.
The sentiments are included in the Botanical Medallions and Banners set and diecut with the new JustRite Vintage Labels and Banners die and Spellbinders Classic Hearts die.
The beautiful ribbon and trims are from Sharon Johnson's Stamp Simply Ribbon Store. These ribbons and trims are so beautiful and easy to work with. I have always considered myself "ribbon challenged" but this ribbon has changed my mind. Be sure to check out Sharon's online store and give it a try - you will not regret it!
Here is a look at the stamp sets that I used to create this beautiful candle
Here are the Vintage Label and Banner dies
And here are the other JustRite designers who also have some amazing projects using these new release sets.

Gramp....
Good morning everyone. Welcome to the second day of the JustRite May Release. The stamp sets for today are Going Places Vintage Labels, Violette Vintage Labels, and the new Vintage Labels and Banners dies.
My card was made in honor of my grandfather who passed away 6 years ago. I was very close to him and spent much of my childhood at my grandparents home. This would have been a perfect card for him because he loved vintage cars. I think I may use this card as part of a scrapbook page of my grandfather.
This image is included in the "Going Places Vintage Labels" set. I stamped the image with Memento Rich Coco, outlined with Copics and diecut using the new JustRite Vintage Labels and Banners die. The background paper was made using the Ticking Stripe Background stamp - I stamped the background twice, cut some white and maroon mats to layer between, then lined up the stripes - it gives the card lots of dimension.
The sentiment "Miss You" is included in the "Your Special Day Medallion Labels" set and diecut using Spellbinders Classic Hearts and Classic Scallop Hearts.

Dear Husband....
Good morning everyone. Welcome to Day One of another great JustRite release. Today's release stamp sets are called Anchors Away, Cozy Plaid Background, Vintage Travel Background. For my card I used 2 of these sets - Anchors Away and Cozy Plaid Background.
To create my background paper I stamped the "Cozy Plaid" background stamp using Memento Tuxedo Black and then randomly colored it using Copic Markers. I think this plaid background might just be my new favorite background stamp!! This background stamp is perfect for the masculine cards that we all struggle to create (or at least I do!!) but I will be showing you on a future post that plaid is NOT just for men - I will also have a Mother's Day Card using the Cozy Plaid Background stamp.
All of the sentiments are included in the "Anchors Away" clear set. This set is PERFECT for me since my husband is an avid boater/fisherman and anything else that has to do with water! He grew up on a large lake so he was constantly on the water. We currently don't live near the water so he is always saying he feels like a fish out of water. I also call his boat "His First Wife".
The image in the center is colored with Copics and diecut with JustRite Custom Nested Medallion Dies, the sentiment in the center is diecut with JustRite Custom Oval Nested Medallion Dies , the sentiment "husband" is diecut with Spellbinders Labels Trio, and the "Happy Father's Day" sentiment is diecut with the new JustRite Vintage Label and Banner dies being introduced tomorrow (I love this new die!)
Did you happen to notice the cool Bakers Twine on my card? I have seen so many cards online using Bakers Twine but didn't know where to find any. Well, I found some in Sharon Johnson's online store The Stamp Simply Ribbon Store. Sharon has a TON of different ribbons, trims, lace, paper, embellishments, etc. Her pricing is very good and the delivery is FAST! Be sure to check out The Stamp Simply Ribbon Store - you will not be disappointed!

Here are the new Vintage Label and Banner dies - another MUST HAVE!
