Some Of My Favorite Things

Hey everyone, I thought I would just pop in real quick and show you a card I made. I have had a rough week and didn't get a whole lot of crafting done,  but I did manage to still work on a few things one of them being this fun little birthday card.

I pretty much pulled all my favorite things to craft with and compiled them onto one card! Here is a quick little run down of what some of my favorite things are. I know you guys are all dying to know lol

1) Sweet Stamp Shop Stamps
2) SRM Stickers
3) Enamel Dots
4) Spray Mists (Heidi Swapp, Dylusions, and Glimmer Mist were used in the making)
5) Kraft Paper
6) October Afternoon Papers
7) Adhesive (of course I have to have that on my list! And that includes a bunch of different kinds: Pop dots, liquid, Scor Tape)

So, nothing like a good birthday card ready to go whenever I need it.

 

I am so happy with how this came out! Here are some of the exact products I used:

Awesome!!

Well not much has been going on here!!! I have been so busy with, well, nothing imparticular. But, I have had time to whip up a card and do a little shopping lol I found some great scores and once they are hung I will take pics to show ya guys.

I had gotten this 8x8 paper pack "Uncharted Waters" by Glitz AND have been waiting to use it on something, so I decided to make a card with it.

Here it is:

I also stamped in the very bottom corner the arrows and Awesome sentiment from Sweet Stamp Shop! I just love the new Starts Here stamp set that was just released. I also accented with some Twine from SRM and little enamel dots from My Minds Eye. Also my boss picked me up this anchor from the recent Trade Show she went to in Las Vegas, which I believed is from Glitz as well.

Here is the stamp set I used, CUTE huh??

Throwback Thursday's Pattern Craze

 >>>>>>>>>> Give-Away Alert<<<<<<<<<<

(FOR INFO ON THE GIVE-AWAY READ THRU TO THE BOTTOM FOR ALL THE DETAILS!)

Hi everyone!!! Welcome back to this week's Sweet Stamp Shop's Throwback Thursday. I am featuring Pattern Craze on the blog today and....

This is a MUST HAVE stamp set! 

Just look at it lol. It pretty much speaks for itself :) Patterns, geo-metric shapes, sizes, OPTIONS!!!!! HOT and TRENDY!!!!

Pattern Craze

 I use this stamp set a lot because of the versatility I get from it.

This week I took my inspiration from the Play Date Cafe's challenge blog. The theme for this week's challenge was, It's a {Splash} of Neon. I just LOVED their color scheme they had going...Black, white, and neon yellow (although it looks green to me and that is what I used for my card, neon green)

 

It's VERY TRENDY this week just like the stamp set. I didn't enter my card in the challenge since it was over before Thursday's Throwback, but it is still fun to play along and a GREAT way to draw your inspiration from. I was also going to use a sketch from another challenge blog but I ended up doing my own thing once I broke out the stamp set and got to work.

This is my card that I came up with:

I got out my watercolor pencils for this card and colored in some of the hearts with black on the panel I created, just to give it a little pop and add a little something! Then to give the panel I stamped and embossed on separation, I matted in black. Next I grabbed the plain hexagon and the dot hexagon and stamped on white and trimmed out. I like the idea of just layering them sligthly underneath with out being "neat" about it. For a little more texture, I broke out the trusty mist and added some neon splash and then my black and neon pens and did some border lines. Then I just accented with a few embellies and a sentiment.
.

For my sentiment I first stamped Epic from Starts Here in neon green and then stamped right in the middle, Happy Birthday from Zombies. I love how perfectly they fit together.

Here is a fun little "extra" for you as well :)

 How To:

• Stamp and cut out three big hexagons and one small then distress the edges
• On one edge cut a slit  just to the middle
• Glue the slit together slightly overlapping the edge to creat a "cone shape"
• Glue the rest of the layers together and add a crystal, brad, or pearl
