Hello My Friend ~ Jaded Blossom Blog Post

 Hi Crafty Friends,

It's my day to post on the Jaded Blossom blog.

Today I'm sharing a card using a technique that I have seen several card makers use and I've been wanting to try it.

I used the Fancy Hearts die to create the textured background on the card mat. I cut multiples of the die and then arranged them on the card mat.  I trimmed the excess and added just a few of the pink hearts from the pink die cut heart. I can't wait to try this again with different dies!

Jaded Blossom products used:

Happy Hello

Bug Me Anytime

Border Dies

Fancy Heart Die

Thanks for looking.

Sweet Thanks

 Hi Crafty Friends,

It's Larelyn from Handmade From My Heart.  I hope your New Year is off to a great start!

I wanted to make Thank You cards for some special gifts we received during the holidays.  

When my daughters were young, the rule at home was that after Christmas Day they couldn't play with their new toys until their thank you notes were written.  Of course Santa always included the note cards in their stockings!  Sadly, for most young people thank you notes are a thing of the past but I still love making and receiving them.

Here are my cards:

I used these Jaded Blossom products:

Rectangle Dies 1

Rectangle Dies 2

Peppermint Candy Die

Lollipops Galore

Thanks for stopping in today.  Be sure to check our our January Coffee Challenge on the Jaded Blossom Blog.

Pearly Sparkles Monthly Challenge ~ Starts with a "P"

Hi Crafty Friends,I hope you had a safe and happy New Year celebration!
Since COVID is very real in my part of the country we have been staying home and keeping everything very low key with few contacts.  Thank goodness for crafting.  I would have been going stir crazy after all these months.
We're beginning the New Year with a fun challenge at Pearly Sparkles.  Our theme is Starts with a "P".
So, what could be cuter than Pandas in a Pocket?  

I've used stamps and dies from LaLa Land Crafts for this card along with Doodlebug Designs papers.  I colored using Copic Markers and cut everything using my Gemini Jr. and Scan N Cut2 to cut out the bears (I hate fussy cutting!)
I hope you'll play along this month.  Just add your "P" project to the link above.
