Open Window and A Bicycle Card....

Hello everyone,
I hope this post finds you well and safe.
I would like to share with you my latest make:

I created the brick background using MFT brick stencil background, texture paste and crackle paint.

The bicycle was made using paper clay and silicone mould, then I inked it to add some color to it. The open window is a Spellbinders die and I added some lace ribbon to make those fancy curtains.

I made flowers using two sizes of flower punch and large pearl flower stamens. The leaves are Magnolia leaf die cuts.

Here is one more look at the finished card.

Clean and Simple Graduation Card

Hello everyone,

I hope this post finds you well and safe.
My latest make appears to be clean and simple card, but let me tell you: there was a lot of work to put this together.

I used my Cricut machine to make this card. The inspiration was a card made by Dorlene at BBTB 2 challenge.

I used Extreme Fonts Little League font to cut out 2020 and Congrats Rene. The card was made for my friend's daughter's high school graduation.

The graduation hat and diploma was a multilayer cut by Cricut in colors of graduate's high school.

Lilacs Card

Hello everyone,

I would like to share with you my latest make. I am so very proud of this card, and I think it is so far the best one I have made. :)

For the background, I used a wood grain patterned paper. I created a Hello sign using Cricut to cut out the hearts and then I stamped them with Shaded Lilac distress ink. The hears were glued onto a baker's twine.

The Lilacs were made using Cricut to cut out bunch of tiny flowers, which I then shaped and added liquid pearl centers. I glued the tiny flowers to wooden skewer sticks. I hand cut grass blades.

I created the flowers basket using some chipboard strips that I glued on heavy cardstock shaped into a basket. Then I painted everything with gray paint and dry brushed some purple paint.

I finished the basked with some One Step Crackle to give it that nice rustic look and added a little purple bow. :)

I hope that the post finds you safe and in good health!

Here is my card:

I created the background panel using home made texture paste,stencil and pink shimmering mist. The window is a Spellbinders die and the "bricks" around the window are cut out of egg carton.

I added some dried Baby's Breath flowers and hand made roses. The roses are Spellbinders Rose die.

Little angel in the window was made using a silicone mould I bought on Etsy.
