Happiness Found

 Hey there scrappy friends!

Today I am sharing a layout I created using stash and a sketch from Sketch-N-Scrap. This is a photo of me playing with SnapChat filters. I love the cans for the rollers! So fun!

I added some watercolors to my background and then added some Lawn Fawn paper and stitching:

I added a fussy cut cloud and a wood veneer sun from my stash:

I also added a couple more wood pieces from my stash:

Here's the sketch:

Count Your Blessings

  Hey there friends!

Today I am sharing another card that I created for 88 and Clear using the March 5 for $5 digital stamps- So This.

I used Java Chip Sugar Stock as my base and then added a layer of Sour Pineapple, which I used a Martha Stewart punch on the edge. Then I added a layer of Sour Guava. I used the Ring Layers die on the 2 top layers to create my circle. The sentiment and leaves from the Sweater Weather digital stamp and the hands with cup is from the So This digital stamp. I also added some Black Taffy Twine made into a bow and some Dazzling Pat spatters.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Hey Gnomie

 Hey there friends!

I had a bit of free time so I played along with a card sketch at Sketch-N-Scrap. I used Fancy Pants Joy Parade and added the gnome with balloons from the digital stamp set Gnomie Love that was available  in February for a workshop at Richard Garay 88 and Clear. I invested in some Caliart markers and have been enjoying coloring images.

Here's my card:

Here's the sketch I used:

I had a blast creating this fun card!

March Workshop

 Hey everyone!

I am sharing a card I created using the March Workshop digital stamp at 88 and Clear. It's called Magic Dreams and has the cutest unicorns! I used watercolor pencils to color the images.

Here's my card:

I used Tangy Berry Sugar Stock as my card base. Then I added a layer of Tangy Gum and Sour Lime Sugar Stocks. Before I adhered the Sour Lime, I used the So Boxy die and ran it through my Cuttlebug to create a Polaroid frame. I popped up the unicorn in the tub and added a bow made from Powdered Sugar Twine. My sentiment is from the Magic Dreams Digital Stamp as well.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Bier Garten

 Hey there friends!

I am sharing a layout for Sketches In Thyme using photos from our Germany trip a few years ago. I used PhotoPlay Let's Go and Fancy Pants alphas:

I machine stitched the layers of patterned papers together to add some texture. I added some travel word phrases to the right of the photo.

I hand cut some pennants and created a banner and machine stitched it:

I added some fussy cut suitcases, a camera and the 23 cent piece:

I am amazed that I didn't use any watercolor on this page. With the sketch, I didn't need to...

Thanks for stopping and have a great day!

This Too Shall Pass

 Hey there friends!

Today I am sharing a card that I created for 88 and Clear using the March 5 for $5 digital stamps- So This. 

Here's my card:

I used Sweet Cane Sugar Stock as my base and then added layers of Sour Mist, Sweet Banana and Tangy Peach Sugar Stocks. I used the Ring Layers die to cut the circles. I colored these stamps with my new Caliart markers. Yes, I finally purchased some markers to color digi stamps. I am loving these markers! To finish the card, I added some Dazzling Pat spatters. 

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Wishing You Well

 Hey there!

Today I am sharing a card created for 88 and Clear. I used the Spring Frames March Card Club Digital Stamp for this pretty card:

I used a white card base and added a layer of Rich Cherry and Rich Tangerine Sugar Stocks. I used white cardstock from my stash and smooshed the Rich Cherry Sugar Cube on some plastic packaging, added a bit of water and smooshed it on the white cardstock. Then I did the same with the Rich Tangerine Sugar Cube. This creates a watercolor look that I love! I used Sharpies to color the wreath from the Spring Frames digi stamp. Fussy cut it and added the "Wishing you well" sentiment from the same digi stamp. I did add a bit of watercolor around the edges. I popped the sentiment up and then added some Dazzling Pat spatters.

Easter Layout

Hey there friends! 

 I am sharing a fun Easter layout with a shaker on it today that I created for Creative Embellishments. I love all the fun crafty goodies they have!

These photos are of are Sierra last year making the famous bunny cake for Easter dinner:

   

I added Dylusions mist to 3 of the Fun Eggs and tucked them around my photos. I added a wood veneer Bunny, which I painted with Gesso:

   

 I added a layer of Gesso and white acrylic paint to the Bunny Shaker and then filled with beads from my stash. I used pearls from Buttons Galore & More for the eyes and bling for the nose:

 

For my title, I used Happy Easter and sprayed it with Heidi Swapp, Shimmerz and Recollections mists:

   

 I used an older Echo Park line for this page. I had a blast creating this page! 

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day! 

Happy

 Hey friends,

I am sharing a scrappy layout created for CSI using case file #349 along with stash:

I fussy cut the kites from a Maggie Holmes Carousel paper. I added some machine stitching in white to a few of them:

I added some puffy stickers from that collection along with some Hip Kit wood buttons:

I fussy cut the houses from a paper from Jen Hatfield Homemade and created a patterned paper hill from an Amy Tan Slice of Life paper for them to sit on. I added the word happy from the puffy stickers for my title:

If you have some time to play along with us this month, we would love to see what you create!
