Craftwork Cards blows me away...

Good morning and welcome to this week's crafty post using Craftwork Cards!!  

For today's project I decided to do something a little different.  I wanted to make a card for my hubby that was gender neutral, which is so hard to do sometimes.  When I saw the design on the paper I used it was a no brainer for me, we get TONS of dandelions in our yard all the time so this was perfect. 

I used the digital paper from the Botanical Garden pack, I LOVE the detail and the coloring

This is a close up picture of the detail on the paper

I used my Cameo to print the text on the front

They have several different paper packs to choose from as digital downloads in the store and they can be found here.  

Happy Shopping!!

Congratulations with a little CANDi

Good morning and welcome to CANDi day with Craftwork Cards!!  

For today's project I used the "Chantilly Champagne" CANDi.  I absolutely LOVE the subtle pink with shimmer on these CANDi's.  It almost looks like pink snake skin :) 

This is how the CANDi's are packaged ~

Friendship is the sweetest flower with CANDi

Hi everyone, are you ready for a little CANDi fun today!!!! 

For today's project I used the "Love Parade Cherry Red" CANDi to create my flowers.  Don't you just LOVE the name!!  When I was making Washi flowers for the Washi Up! Challenge I got the idea to try with the CANDi too so I made two cards, one with each and I'm soooo thrilled with how the CANDI came out on this one (hope you love it too)!!!

 

Here's a package of the "Love Parade Cherry Red" CANDI, 
and you get TONS of them in one pouch!

Craftwork Cards UK & USA Blog Hop

Hi everyone and welcome to the Craftwork Cards Wreath Blog Hop!!! We are joining forces with our UK team to bring you this blog hop so it's full of extra special fun :)

If you've arrived on my blog from Cards by Julie from the UK team you're in the right place.  If you just happened on my blog today you'll want to start at the beginning, which is The USA Craftwork Cards Blog.

The blog hop will be going on all week (Mon-Fri) and we'll be picking winners on all 5 days.  We'll also be showing all the different "Create a Wreath" kits. 

The kit I used was the "Mr. & Mrs." kit.  In the kit you get MORE than enough embellishments to make TWO wreaths!!   Right now, the wreaths can purchased at the Craftwork Cards UK store for our UK friends and Scrapbook.com for our USA friends.  

Here is the wreath I did.  The colors are browns, cremes and pale yellows (I tried several pictures and it just didn't do the colors justice).

 

I'll be giving away a "Create a Wreath Mr. & Mrs. Kit" to one lucky winner today, this is how it comes.

 

In order to be eligible for this you must become a follower on the Craftwork Cards UK Blog and the USA Blog, and post a comment on each hop post from today.  

  Your next stop on this hop is my UK buddy Cards, Candi and Cupcakes and I believe she might have 2 different wreaths for you to check out.  

If you would like to go back and check out anything you might have missed here is the hop list for today.

Get Well with CANDi

Thanks for stopping by to check out my Craftwork Cards CANDi fun!! 


For today's project I used the "Polka Dot Coconut Macaroon" CANDi.  Don't you just LOVE the name!!

I did an easel card and used the CANDi as my backstop for the front, which worked out totally awesome and blended so well with the design of the card. 

Here's the front ~

which can be bought at the Royal Shoppe on Facebook.

Here's the card opened up with the CANDi ~

Here's a package of the CANDI, and you get TONS of them in one pouch!  As you can see also there are other colors in the package. This package has the brown with cream polka dots that I used and also a cream CANDi with brown polka dots which matched my background paper almost perfectly.  Unfortunately too perfect that I couldn't use it because it blended in too much.

I tried to blow them up for you to get a closer look, but the picture blurred on me (sorry).  The CANDi has a little sparkle to it.

Enjoy Your Day with CANDi

Thanks for joining me today for some Craftwork Cards CANDi fun!! 

Today I'm using one of my favorite colors which is the "Icing Sugar".  I tend to use this one a lot because you can use glimmer mist on it, or even stamp on it if you wanted too ~ it's very versatile.
 

I tried to blow them up for you to see, it actually has a little sparkle to it.
