Hello everyone! Yesterday was my Dad’s birthday, and this is the card I made him! He is a huge University of Miami fan, so I used orange and green in a subtle way. The Joyland Studio Calico kit is perfect for guy cards!
These Cosmo Cricket chipboard letters are so awesome! I also figured out a trick with the Pink Paislee tape: when it is too shear over patterned paper, just layer over another piece of tape. Okay, I realize this is not brilliant or anything, but I was pretty excited when the light bulb flickered a little over my head. Hehe! 🙂

Make sure to check in tomorrow for the latest Everything but the Kitchen Sink challenge. I am the host this time, and I am so excited!

Also, don’t forget that the Lawn Fawn sneak peeks start Monday May 31st at 12:01 am EDT! WOOO! I can’t wait!

Hello! Here is a happy and bright Torendi card for Friday! This card is Sassafras-tastic! I used the nerdy bird stickers and 6×6 paper pad.
How cool are these Sassafras glitter letter stickers? I love them so much! Have a wonderful weekend everyone!

And don’t forget: sneak peeks for Lawn Fawn start on Monday! Woooo! 🙂

I heart bloomers. They are amazing. My favorite thing is to cut them up into individual rosettes and group them together like this. It’s glue dot central under those flowers!
I had so much fun with sticky back canvas! I painted it turquoise, stamped these awesome Studio Calico stamps on it in brown and then “splattered” it with perfect pearls. I then threaded the top and bottom with twine, although those bloomers took over the bottom twine stitching! Haha! The card base has been stamped with a Hero Arts stamp in Versamark and dusted with perfect pearls too. I wanted this to feel like a fancy old carnival advert or something. Haha! That probably only makes sense in my head, but I had fun making this card! Thanks so much Embellish for letting us take on your awesome challenge again! 🙂
