Is it time for cake yet?

Here is a clean and simple birthday card that I created using a K&Company sentiments vellum sticker pad. When I first saw this pad, I knew immediately that I could use them for cards. I fell in love with the sentiments and fonts as they reminded me of actual stamps that I had seen online. This is a no fuss, no stamping, so quick and so, so simple card. I can't wait to use more of these stickers on cards.

It's always hard for me to photograph my cards whenever I use an embossing plate for the second layer. I think you get the idea though! :)

I will be linking this card to Simon Says Stamps Challenge - Anything Goes!

Happy Birthday, CSC136

I miss playing along in challenges, so today I tried to squeeze in some time to make a quick card. Here is the card that I made to play along with this week's CASE Study Challenge. It's very simple and can even be used as a masculine card.

Here is a photo of this week's CASE Study:

Snapshot Love!

Here is a card that I made for a friend's wedding. I almost always use my favorite PTI's Congrats stamp, cream cardstock, along with a big beautiful cream bow for wedding cards. This time I challenged myself to do something different. I used the Shutterbug Special stamp set from PTI, cream cardstock (just had to) and no bow! So here is what I came up with...

This looks very simple for a wedding card, but it's actually quite elegant in real life. It was also a bit hard for me to photograph since I was trying to capture the embossing on the second layer. I used dimensional adhesive on both layers, added the LOVE brad along with a few black pearls.

Here is the pullout sentiment behind the camera...

Remember This Moment

Look who's blogging today! I'm sharing a bridal shower card that I made for a friend last week. It's a very simple card using one of my favorite stamps from Ali Edwards. My inspiration for this card came from the gift box that I used for the gift. I originally planned to add some butterflies to the card but ended up using pearls instead.

Here are two photos of the gift box:

I've completed a couple more pages for my Project Life album! I am so glad that I decided to do this year's album digitally as I am truly enjoying the process. So much so, that I am falling even more behind on my 2012 album...not good! Anyway, here are two more pages for the month of January.

A closer look at each page:

Freshly Made Sketches is one of my favorite sketch challenge blogs. The sketches are clean and simple, which tends to get my creative juices flowing! I wish I had more time to play along on a weekly basis. Here is the card that I made for this week's challenge.

The second layer and the sentiment are both adhered with dimensional adhesive. Sentiment is from Hero Arts, Good Friends stamp set.

Here are two more pages to my 2013 PL album. As mentioned in previous posts, I take a monthly recap approach to my albums. I do have a couple more pages that I still need to finish up for January.

Here is what the double page spread looks like:
