Welcome Baby!

Hi Everyone!

Happy Monday! Today I wanted to share with you a baby shower card I made this weekend. When I decided to make it. I really didn't want to have to pull put the Cricut or the Silhouette. So I grabbed a few of my Stampin' Up punches and a few Pink by Design Stamp sets and here is what I got! 

How cute is this? I was really happy with the end result! 

Happy Crafting!

Step by Step... Ooooo baby!

Hi Everyone! 

I hope you enjoyed my post yesterday! It was nice to be welcomed back :) today I decided to post a Step by Step tutorial of how I made the Sequin Card. If you want to join the Valentine's Day Wacky Wednesday Challenge you can CLICK HERE.

Here is the Step by Step Tutorial:

Step 1: 

Cut your top layer. I used my gypsy to design it. I made two different ones.

Step 2:

Trim your cardstock to make an A2 sized card (4.25 x 5.5). If you are starting with an 8.5 x 11 piece of cardstock like I did you are basically cutting it in half. In my case I am cutting it the long way.

Step 3 - Score your cardstock at 5.5 inches

Step 4 - fold your card base in half

Step 5 - trace your hearts from your top layer onto your card base using a pencil. 

Step 6 - lift top layer and start placing sequins using the Scotch Quick Dry.  You want to make sure that the sequins overlap the pencil mark. The glue will dry clear. 

Step 7 - stamp your sentiment on the top layer

Step 8 - add foam tape around the edge on the back of your top layer.

Step 9 - peel off backing on foam tape and add to the base of the card.

Here is the finished product!

Supplies:

Pink By Design - Capture Life Stamp Set

Pencil

Paper Trimmer

Graphically Speaking - Cricut Cartridge

Calligraphy Collection - Cricut Cartridge

Paper Trey Ink - Poppy Cardstock

Paper Trey Ink - White Cardstock

Art Minds - Red Sequins

Scotch - Quick Drying Tacky Glue

Happy Crafting!

BIG NEWS!

CLICK HERE for Wacky Wednesday

Well I said at the beginning of the year that I had big news... I just couldn't say it yet... well now the time has come. Hansel and I are excited to share with you all that we are EXPECTING! We found out on the Morning of my 35th Birthday! What a Great Gift! This should explain my lack of posts. I am just so tired I can't stay up past 10pm... this is super early for me and only 4 hours after I get home from work. So after we eat dinner, shower and prepare things for the next morning its bed time.... I am super excited about having a Baby! I have been scrapbooking a little so In the next coming weeks I will be sharing some of my Projects with you. Today I am going to share with you the very first Page in our Baby Book. This Layout features the Pink by Design - 9 Months Stamp Set and Files from The Silhouette Store and cut with my Cameo!

Now you are looking at this and saying she is having a boy? She already knows? YEP! I am actually 19 weeks! I have never been pregnant before and I was told it probably wouldn't happen without some serious intervention... So Hansel and I had moved on to Child Free Living... Well low and behold intervention free... We are having a Baby! a Boy at that! I was a little bit of a nervous wreck at first. We are so excited and cant wait to welcome our little bundle of joy at the end of July. Now I know I haven't really been posting my crafts on here but I have actually been blogging just not here I have been blogging my Journey so far. CHECK IT OUT by clicking here.

Step by Step...

Hi Everyone!

Happy Sunday! Today is my Design Day over at Pink by Design! I am so happy to finally be sneaking one of the November Releases! This has got to be one of my favorite sentiments! but before we get to the sentiment. I want to tell you that I love my irock and the templates that you can get. Altough I love the templates I hate working around them. So Here is what I like to do.

Step 1. Choose the location of your template:

Step 2. With a pen or pencil make small dots in the center of each circle in the template (I used a pen so i could see the dots)

Step 3. remove template

step 4. Start adhereing the gems to your project

Step 5. Once you are finished you can move on to step 6...

Step 6. Finish your project.

Now how cute is that sentiment as a pregnancy announcement? We're growing by two feet! I absolutely love it! Stay tuned for information about the Next PBD release!!! Coming very soon!!!

Happy Crafting!
