Mandala Dream

Hello Friends.  Today I am sharing a vibrant mandala card that was actually quite quick and easy to create.

 
 
Mandalas are a symbol of the Universe and may be used in meditation, so the art work and saying in the Ornamental Dream  stamp set fit perfectly together! 


 

I combined Cool Pool, Sweet Berry, and Pineapple Smoothie together for this card. Love the combo for light and airy cards.


 
So, as the card says, Follow your Dream, This is your Time!

Cool Pool Valentine Tag

 I am in full in Valentine Mode here in my craft room!  Hearts and Sparkles everywhere!

 
Today I used a non traditional color combo, Bubble Gum and Cool Pool.  Don't you just love how they work together!  As you can see, I pulled out my Doily Die....I know, I am in love with it, but I just can't help myself!
 

I used another one of my favorite dies, the Bread Tag die.  If you throw parties or enjoy giving little goodies, this die is a must have!!! It is just perfect for creating little favor or goody bags.
 
 
Love the little Heart Sparkle Drop in the center of my layered hearts!!! And be still my beating heart, Bubble Gum Silk with Pink World sequins to glam it up even more!

Doily Heart Love

My love affair with doilies is in full swing!  Today I pulled out the Doily Heart ATS along with my favorite Doily Die for a sweet Valentine card.

 
I just love using traditional Red, Black and White for Valentines Cards.  It makes them look so elegant!
 

And our Special Celebration sequins gives it extra bit of sparkle!

Valentine Treats

Every year I look for cute ways to give small gifts at Valentine Day.  This year I will be giving theses special treats to friends and family!


 

Fun Stampers Journey has hit it out of the park again with these precious Love Treat Tags from the Spring Mini Catalog.  They are so easy to cut out using the Bread Tag die.


 

I dressed up a simple bag of M&M candy by wrapping it with a Bubble Gum pink Cupcake Liner trimmed with Journey Sparkle cuts.  Then I tied a bow using Bubble Gum pink satin ribbon and topped it off with a Sparkle Love Element.



Super fast and easy but looks like you are a professional party planner!  All of the items used are available at Fun Stampers Journey

Have a wonderful day!

Christmas Stocking Album

Hi Friends!  If you are like most folks, the Holiday season gets away from you.  That is exactly what happened here in Southern Maryland, so yesterday my friends and I got together to make our Mini Christmas Album.

Isn't it stinking cute?!!! We used our 2014 Fun Stampers Journey Christmas designer paper, mat board (which I get from a local artist, Mary Lou Troutman), and spiral binding.




The pages are a variety of shapes and sizes, I really like to vary it up to add interest.  We even added some Jingle Bells to the front cover!!!~ How fun is that?!!



I had die cut a variety of extra shapes and mats for everyone to use in personalizing their albums.  There were 10 of us, but I cut for 12 just in case someone brought a friend, so I have 2 extras I am putting in my etsy shop , Cindy Creative Journey.  Hurry before they are gone!

Thanks for stopping by,

Jar Full of Hearts

Hello friends.  Today I am sharing a quick Valentine card using some Oldie but Goodie stamp sets along with a Brand Spanking new set.


I pulled out the Homemade set and die for this classic jar and stamped it using Black Licorice.  Then I grabbed the Only You, Chick Magnet, and Birthday Girl set to fill the jar with hearts.  Love all the different styles of hearts and how they work together!

 

I finished the card off with a saying from the new Bot Love set and punched it out using FSJ's Tag Time punch.  Then I added sequins and some sparkle dust!



Thanks for stopping by!

Birthday Bot

Hello Friends!
Last week I shared a Valentines card I made using FSJ's new Bot Love set out of the Spring Mini and today I wanted to share a birthday card I created with it.


I stamped and colored this cute little robot multiple times on my Whipped Cream cardstock.  Then I pulled out my Journey Rectangles dies and used two of the piercing dies to create some depth.  I am in love with our piercing dies, they add that little detail that make your cards pop!




I stamped Happy Birthday on Black Licorice cardstock with Clear Embossing ink and embossed it using white embossing powder.  Sprinkled a few Clear Sparkle Elements sequins around because every party needs some sparkle and layered it on a Black Licorice card base!



Thanks for stopping by!
