Hello, today I have a Back to School card to share using a positive affirmation. I’ve combined a few stamp sets together from Miss Ink Stamps for this one!
I created that background using one of my favorite stencils Basket Case, and a small apple image from the Little Angel stamp set. This makes such a fun patterned paper that you could use for any project, today I am using it as my card background.

I couldn’t help but make TWO cards, using a couple stamp sets and the same CC Designs die! (see VIDEO below the card photos)
CARD 1: May the Force Be With You
For this card I used the most adorable stamp set from CC Designs and combined it with the filmstrip die.
I created a simple galaxy background for this MINI SLIMLINE card. That filmstrip die is perfect for a slimline card! Then I colored some vellum for each of the squares…and that is what I put the light behind.
Just look at how CUTE this is with the lights!! (Check out my video below to see how to make this!)
CARD 2: Fairy Hello
For this next card I absolutely used the SAME DIE as the card above! Can you believe it?! One thing I LOVED about this filmstrip die is that they included tons of small images like the mushrooms, flowers, and grass! The “HI” sentiment is also from that die!
How cute are these fairies?! I couldn’t stop smiling as I was making this card, they are that adorable!
Now for the LIGHTS!! Look at how awesome the halo light kit is! I cut a circle out of the panel that was just a little smaller than the circle of lights.
Now, this photo might be a little awkward because I’m right handed, but how do you hold a camera, press the lights, AND take a photo with the right hand?! Lol. Let me try it again…
This photo is better…I shot it using my LEFT HAND, which is no easy task!
I have a VIDEO with all the details of how to put these together with those brilliant Pear Blossom Press lights! Watch it below or in HD on YouTube:

Hello! Today I have a fun Elvis card…in the Hall of Fame! I’m using a cute little set from Miss Ink Stamps called Thank You Very Much.
Did you know Elvis is the only performer that was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, the Country Hall of Fame, AND the Gospel Hall of Fame? That’s so cool.
That is what gave me the the idea to create this card. Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:
This is such a fun little set, and I used GOLD and SILVER ink to make those records in the background.
I know the REAL Elvis had dark hair, almost black hair, but I made mine with brown hair to match my color scheme. And I felt like a white jump suit was too plain…so my Elvis has a purple/blue jump suit with a lime green jacket! LOL. Now there’s some color!

Hello! Today I have 2 Watermelon picnic cards to share using the new August Hedgehog Hollow Kit. This kit is just packed with all things picnic and grilling related…it’s really great!
I have a video sharing everything in the kit, and sharing how I made these two cards. Watch it below or in HD on YouTube:
I loved making these cards, and got some surprising results with glitter paste and then glitter ON TOP of that! I hope you’ll check it out!
Card One
For this card I used the larger watermelon and also the cartoon-like ant. I also chose a couple papers from the paper pack included in the kit to act as our tableclothes.
I think that sentiment is so funny…and perfect for this card!
Card 2:
For this second card, I used the watermelon and ant background stencils. This is the same idea with the “tablecloth” patterned paper. Doesn’t this just look like a picnic waiting to happen?!? (Ants and all…LOL)
Notice the watermelon rinds…I used some neon green glitter paste with some darker green glitter sprinkled on top in spots. This is to mimic the watermelon striped rinds…did you get that?
