Whimsy Card

Good morning! I have a project using Whimsy's new Mini Chalkboards 1 sentiment stamps. It's a great stamp collection to get as it has a sentiment for every occassion. It's a different one for me as it has no image or Copics involved. I think it's a nice change. So much so that I think I'll have to make a whole set with this stamp collection!!!

I used Coffee Archival Ink to stamp and Frayed Burlap to distress the papers edges. The gorgeous paper is Maja papers- I love how they are such high quality card-stock and so elegant and versatile! I dyed some seam binding with Weathered Wood and Broken China and added a flower from Prima's Princess Collection. 

I love the design of this card and it was inspired by Andrea Ewen, one of the talented ladies on the Maja Blog.

Melia

Good afternoon! I am back to share a card using sweet Melia on Her Shell Phone, which you can find at Mo's Digital Pencil.

I have used some Maja Papers and punched the bottom with a Martha Stewart border punch. I had cut out a mosaic background with my Silhouette and didn't know what to do with it until this card. I thought it made a cute fish net of sorts! I added some flowers and some shells that I snagged from a cousin's wedding centerpieces (Totally allowed!). The molded swirls are from a Martha Stewart mold( I like to think of them as foaming waves... Anyways, I used my all time favorite tag from Magnolia, the Tilda Tag which are still a great deal at Scrapbook Maven.

Extra, Extra!

Hi!! I am here to share a BOY card using Extra from Mo's Digital Pencil! I have such a hard time with boy cards which is terrible since I have three boys!

But a few well placed embellishments make it easier;)

I love using the Tim Holtz Filmstrip Ribbon for masculine cards! It works well with feminine cards, too, I have seen on other cards. The vintage light bulb is another fun embellie to add. I used Tim Holtz' Tattered Florals die to make a flower to match the Prima Printery paper I used and made a newspaper tied with twine from some of the paper's cutouts. My six year old got a kick out of it and had to have one for himself! I used the Magnolia Doohickey die again- can't get enough of it! I cut out and made 'Happy Birthday 2 U' from the papers to put on the tag.  It's a small card so it couldn't fit too much which I think is good for a masculine card. Men/ boys are simple, right?
