Happy Anniversary

 

F4A583 - Marvin Gaye (How Sweet It is to be Loved By You)


USEIT2021 - Die cut bride and groom

I was listening to How Sweet it is to be Loved By You and through an anniversary card would be perfect for that song.

I had a few die cut bride and groom die cuts in my tote to use up. I die cut some hearts and pupped them up on dimensionals and sponged some yellow behind the die cut opening. Finished off with the Happy Anniversary sentiment.

Tough Guy


 WT841 - Earth Day


The foil on my card is recycled from covering a food dish. Once it was no longer needed for the dish I washed off any remaining food and laid it out to dry.

I then glued the foil down on card stock and ran it through with an emboss folder.

I die cut some gears and stamped the sentiment and saw. Die cut the saw and popped it on dimensionals.

This weeks Teapot Tuesday is perfect to use up this old image that has been in my pile for a very long time to get colored and used.

I colored the image, sponged some clouds and layered on some DP  and added the sentiment.

Graduate 2021

 


FS741 - This weeks incredibly talented Featured Stampepr is Heather Freeman, better known around here as heather freeman. I found this cute Snowflake Box

I had a thought in my head for my son's graduation to make an exploding box and put pictures in it. I have been combing through pictures for a very long time looking for just the right pictures and also put pictures in from each of his school years. The main pictures are his school years and the secondary pictures are of his family members that have been a part of his growing up most of those family members have passed so this is how we are including them in his graduation.

I used the Divinity Designs exploding box and cut the box in black and cut the matting layers in gold for his school colors.

You ask why is this a 5 well let's just say that trying to get the images the right size and also include the pictures of those family members so that the image was recognizable is a huge challenge. Thankfully hubby still loves me after the hours it took him to help with these images.

Swan Anniversary

 

IC802 - Paper Mache Art where I found this great Inspiration

I was asked to make an anniversary card and I really needed to play with my Calla Lily collection from Heartfelt Creations. I love Calla Lilies and thought this collection was perfect for an anniversary card.

Stamped the flowers and shaped them adding stamen to the centers and hot gluing them. Die cut the decorative card base and stamped, cut and colored the swans. I finished with the anniversary sentiment on the die cut from the label collection.

Graduation 2021

 

MIX429 - Diamond

Well of course there is a diamond on this, lots actually the mortar hats top is diamond shaped so that is my story and I am running with it because I need more graduation cards.

I die cut the hat, embossed the layers and stamped the sentiment. I added nuvo drops to spruce up the card a bit.

Purple Graduation

F4A582 - Yellow

Well since my son's school colors are black and gold I used a yellow for the gold and was able to create another graduation card. I still have a bunch to go to finish up the many cards on order for graduation for 3 family members graduating this year. This is all die cuts, and embossing.
