My Last Two Spring Cards

Hi there, I know that it had been a while since my last post but time seems to be just flying by!! The weather is nice and warm for the most part and I have been enjoying all the sunshine and beautiful flowers that are all around.

I finished up my Spring Card Series over on my YouTube channel a little while ago so I thought that I would share my cards with you here too!! If you would like to see more, here is a link to my YouTube channel, thecraftnut32. Well on to my two spring time cards!!

Here is the video of my Spring Card #3:

Spring Card #2

Hi Everyone, Happy Friday!!!

Over the last little while I have been really looking forward to spring, it is my favourite time of the year!!! We have had a very cold winter and are now beginning to get some warmer weather, which I am loving...

To celebrate this beautiful time of year I am doing a spring time card series. Last week’s card was the first in my series and today I am going to share my second card in the series.  

I have made a video describing my card for my YouTube channel, so I thought that I would share that here too:

Happy Spring :)

We have had a long and cold winter here in Ontario, so I thought that I would make some cute and cherry spring themed cards for some friends and family. 

I decided to use this cute digital stamp from Tiddly Inks to create my card:

I coloured in this cute little girl using my Spectrum Noir markers. I added glossy accents to the hearts and I distressed the edge of the paper and then  inked it up with some Faded Jeans Distress ink. 
I cut the clouds out with some Papertrey Ink dies and then added some Studio g glitter glue to the edges and then popped them up on some foam. The flowers and leaves are cut from a Martha Steward punch and from the Flower Shoppe Cricut cartridge. 

The sentiment is from a My Pink Stamper set: Flowers and Friendship, I distressed the edge and then inked it up. 

The patterned paper is from the Recollections Mosaic Memory stack.  

I hope that you have a great weekend :)

Challenges I am participating in this week:

Tiddly Inks: Challenge #107- Distress, Emboss or Stitch, Oh MY 

Simon Says Stamps and Show: A Very Strict Challenge. 

Challenge Water

Hi there, this week I am participating in the Simon Says Stamp and Show challenge. This weeks theme is water so I decided to create this card:

This is a 5 by 5 inch card, the background paper is from the Recollections Mosaic Memory stack.  The flower stamp is an Hero arts stamp that I coloured in with my Spectrum Noir markers. I used some distress inks and a text stamp to create the background. I dripped some water on it and distress the edges to give it an aged look. I used some Papertrey Ink twine and some butterflies that I punched from a Martha Stewart punch to finish it off.

A Pretty Thank You Card

Hi there, Last month my husband surprised me with some Spectrum Noir markers!!! I just love them and I have been have been having a lot of fun colouring with them and creating some really cut images :)

A couple of weeks ago I created this card with an image I found from a Google search of digital stamps. I used my new markers to colour it in and I got the idea for the card layout from a Mojo Monday sketch. 

Here is a video I made for my YouTube channel describing my card in more detail:

I hope that you have a great day &

A Bee Mine Valentine's Card

After Christmas, Valentine's Day is my next favorite holiday. Well, I know that Valentine's is not a real holiday but it is something that I look forward to and decorate for...lol. I love all the pink and red with Valentine's day, such cheerful colours for a fun little day :)

I have been making some cards that I am going to mail off to friends and family this week and here is a video that I made showing and describing it:

I really love this card, and I really love this cute little stamp set from Lawn Fawn :)
