Enjoy Your Vacation

Hi Crafty Friends,
I made this card especially for the Cut It Up Challenge #68 - Use black, kraft, + one other color. I just picked up the new release dies from Jaded Blossom and couldn't wait to use them.

I think the turquoise, kraft, and black make a great beach theme combination.  I've used Jaded Blossom's Tropical Dies, Dimensional Banner Dies, and Aloha stamp set.  Everything was cut with my trusty Cuttlebug.  I added a touch of twine, some Queen&Co jellies, and a little inking.
Thanks for taking a look!

Let's Bee Friends

Hi Crafty Friends, It's Delightful Thursday at Digital Delights by Louby Loo.   My card features the April Cupcake.  Did you know that Wendy has designed a Cupcake set for every month of the year - so cute for special birthdays or calendar pages.  You'll find all the Cupcake sets HERE.

I've used the Cuttlebug Honey Comb embossing folder for the background.  The image is printed on the Journal die by Jaded Blossom.  The sentiment is from the Love is in the Air set and stamped on one of JB's Mini Tag Dies 2.  I also added some gems and baker's twine to finish the card.  The image is colored with Copic markers.

Springtime Greetings

Hi Crafty Friends,

It's my design day at Digi My World.  Today I'm sharing an image called

Bluebell Flowers.  You'll find it in the DMW store HERE.

I love clean and simple cards and square corners along with layered mats, so this card just speaks to me.  An embossed mat and a few gems - that's it.  The sentiment is from Jaded Blossom's Springtime Greetings set stamped onto JB's Flag Dies.  The embossing folder is Cuttlebug's Victoria.

Hostess Monday at Digital Delights

Hi Crafty Friends, It's my turn to post for Hostess Monday at Digital Delights by Louby Loo. I wanted to share what I call the "Delightful Boys of Summer."  As I was going through my Digital Delights images I found so many adorable boy images.  Sometimes these cards are the most difficult to make because lots of images are feminine.  Well at Digital Delights that's not the case!  Wendy has created as many images for the guys as for the gals.  I decided to pick a few, use the same card base and layout and show you how versatile these images can be.  I didn't add sentiments as they'll go into my stash for those times when I need to grab a card for a special guy. Let's start with Say Cheese Paul,

 Karate Kevin,

and here's Fishing Donnie.

You'll find an entire section of Boys and Men images HERE. For the card bases I used the Classic Label Card Base from SVG Cutting Files.  I imported the file into my Silhouette and added one extra mat by using the internal offset tool.  The film strip is from the Film Dies set by Jaded Blossom.  The frog and chevron are punches that I have.  Each image was colored with Copic markers. I'd like to enter the following challenges: Stamping Sensations:  March challenge - One for the Guys Challenge Up Your Life:  #10 Masculine

Easter Greetings

Hi Crafty Friends, Welcome to this week's Delightful Thursday.  Today I'm using the Easter Floppet image from Digital Delights by Louby Loo.  The sentiment is from the Easter Sentiments set.

I colored Floppet with Copic markers.  I also used Jaded Blossom Spring Dies and Flag Dies along with a little twine bow and some enamel dots.
