The World Is A Better Place With You In It

Hello! I’ve been having the best time playing with the new Full Circle Collection by Emily Moore Designs. I just love how this card turned out with the soft colors and sweet sentiment. I used Catherine Pooler inks to create the paper ribbons and had so much fun weaving them together for the background. I also added a little vellum behind the buttons to keep everything soft and pretty. And that sentiment? It’s just so sweet and encouraging — I love it!

I used a piece of vellum as a background for the buttons.  Since vellum can be a bit difficult to adhere to cards without the glue showing, I folded it to the back of the card and then covered my glue dots with the buttons.  

Supplies:

    Dainty Dots Stencil

    Doiles & Daisies Circle Dies

    Button Dies

    Gentle Reminders Stamp Set

    Sparkling Berry Catherine Pooler Ink

Wings and Wishes

Hello!  Today I have a card that I created with the new July Crafty Crew Kit by Crafty Stamp Co.  Meadow is back as the cutest fairy in the Wings and Wishes Stamp Set.  The kit includes a really nice patterned paper pack which has soft butterflies and florals on one side and vibrant alcohol ink designs on the other.  

A new thing in the kit is a Crafty Color Recipe, which lists suggested Copic Marker combinations.  I really like this idea because it is not only helpful for the newer maker, but there are times that I just want to color, and I can just follow the color blends.  The recipe card on this kit also has a sketch project on the back with measurements, which I loosely followed for this card.  

The Copic Marker colors that I used were:

• E000, E00, E11 R20 - skin
• Y21, Y26, E53 - hair
• BC10. BG11, BG13 - eyes
• BG10, BG11, BV00, BV02, RV00, Y11 - wings
• RV00, RV10, RV13, NV00, BV02 - dress petals
• YG17, G21 - leaves
• RV00, RV10, RV13 - bow and shoes
• *flowers in her hand are the same color combinations as above

I didn't want to clutter the front of the card with a sentiment, so I put it on the inside of the card.  I used one of the sentiments that are included with the stamps set.

Meadow is always such a fun young lady to color and coloring her this time was no exception.  I think she just looks so pretty against the patterned paper don't you?

Thank you for stopping by and I hope you have an amazing day.

Don't Worry Be Hippy Anatomically Adorable

 

Hey there!  It's a new month and Trinity Stamps has a new Anatomically Adorable available.  This one is called Hipster!  Unfortunately, when you get to my age, you start knowing more and more people who have had or need to have a hip replaced.  I thought this would be a fun card to give someone getting ready to get one.  Even the sentiment is perfect for this card.

For this card, I used a stencil to make my flowery background.  I added the little faces to the center of the flowers using the little faces found on the Hipster Stamp Set.  I also used the Emergency Card Essentials Die Set #2.  I love these sets for when I need to make a quick card.

The inside sentiment is stamped using the Healing Wishes Stamp Set.

Now how easy is this card?!?  Super easy.  

I do receive a small commission from Trinity Stamps at no cost to you when you purchase from the above links.  I am very thankful and grateful for any purchases that help me to continue to create content for this blog.  

I Woof You!

How cute is this little guy with a bone almost as big as he is.  To make this card, I used the Decorative Sentiments Die Set from Emily Moore Designs.  I just love this set, not only is it perfect for cutting out sentiments, it also has some really great shapes that help you to build a card.  

The patterned paper that I used is one of my favorites because is so colorful.  This collection is from Crafty Stamp Co. and was only available in the March 2026 Crafty Crew Kit.   

My little buddy on this card is a stamp set called Puppy Mail from Gerda Steiner Designs.  I colored him with Copic Markers in the following Colors:

• YR21, YR23, YR24, 
• R14, R7

For the inside of the card, I used a sentiment that comes with the stamp set.  Simple and sweet!

This would be a great card for just a hello or maybe a Birthday!

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a great day!
