Floral Sympathy Card

Hello friends! 

For the second half 2026 I wanted to go through my craft stash and finish up some left over projects. I colored this floral bouquet way too long ago and wanted to finally get it on a card. 


I thought the soft colors on the floral was deserving of a sympathy card



I wanted to keep the background subtle so the floral arrangement could take center stage so i thought using a book page type with greyish blue hues would work nicely. 

I hope this encourages you to finish up half made projects in your crafty collection.

Happy Crafting!

Birthday Candle Mini-slimline card

 Good Morning! Happy Friday! I hope your week is going well.

Thank you for stopping by. 

Today I wanted to make a quick birthday card but still wanted the card to have some pop.


I used the mini- slime-line dies from Gina K Designs Master Layout 7 to cut out the card panels and sentiment circles


I then stamped and cut some candles dies. The dies I had made shorter candles so I cut them in half and hid them behind the sentiment making them look longer to fit my slimline space. 

I used all inks and paper from Gina K Designs. 
Happy Crafting!

Adding Texture to Card Backgrounds

 Hello Beauties!

Thank you for stopping by today.

Went through my stash if metal craft dies to create this card. I grab a die I haven't used in a long while to create this textured faux embossed raised background. 


I thought the feather background would be perfect for this colored image. I used alcohol markers to color the stamped image in.


I hope you enjoyed this card and try making some backgrounds using craft dies you have in your stash. Happy crafting!

Creating a scene using die cuts

 

Hello friends! 

I hope you are having a wonderful week so far!

I was in the mood for paper Hello friends!  today. This card has 48 pieces that had to be cut and assembled  together to create this scene. 


Although this is time consuming to cut out all those small pieces; I do enjoy the final product. I try to make multiples when I make a card project like this since the planning can take awhile. I figured why not have at least 3+ of the same card if I am going to spend a lot of time designing the scene. 


 I do enjoy the process of placing each element around the card front until I find the perfect place for each one.


I hope you enjoyed viewing my card. Have a great weekend and happy crafting!
