You're The Best

I created this Mother's Day card using Rosie Posy from Lili of the Valley.  I started with a blue calypso card base. I added a peice of rain, backed in white and backed again in whirpool.  I cut a square of aqua gingham patterned paper and backed it in white card stock and added it to the center of the card. I colored the image using Spectrum Noir pens. I backed both the image and the sentiment in blue calypso. I added a piece of aqua ribbon in the upper corner of the card and added aqua twinkle goosebumps to it and then added 3 more on the opposite bottom corner.

LOTV's 9th Birthday

Lili of the Valley is celebrating their 9th birthday this week with a birthday card competion. The prize is 9 stamps of the winner's choice!! Plus the top 3 will be given the opportunity to be guest designers!! How awesome is that!! Here is my card using Rosie With Cake.

I started with a dark brown 5x5 card base. I added a piece of pink card stock cut just slightly smaller than the base. I embossed a piece of white card stock using a dot folder and added it to the bottom of the card.  I cut a strip of pink & brown striped patterned paper and backed it in dark brown. I punched the bottom of the dark brown card stock using an eyelet lace border punch and added a brown dotted ribbon across the middle before adding it just above the embossed card stock.  I colored the image using Spectrum Noir and American Crafts Chromatix pens. I stamped the sentiment on white card stock and then backed both the image and the sentiment in pink and then again in dark brown.  I added 3 white pearls to the top corner.  I tied a knot out of the ribbon and added it beside the image.  I added crystal stickles to the headband and flame on the image.

Triangle Joy Fold Card

I created this birthday card using Rosie Posy from Lili of the Valley stamps.  I decided to make a triangle joy fold card after seeing a tutorial on the Lili of the Valley website.  This was my very first triangle joy fold card and I'm very excited on how it came out.  Although I will admit it is very heavy with all the layers of card stock and embellishments.

I started with a sage green card base.  I added layers of brown linen patterned card stock, cream card stock, sage card stock and a floral patterned card stock. The lace border is created using an eyelet lace border punch.  I added green paper roses and branches that I punched out of the brown card stock.  I added a bow made out of sheer pink ribbon and added a green paper rose to the center of the bow. I colored the image using crayola and prisma color pencils and added green chalk around the edges and added 3 rose pearls to the bottom corner. 

Here are a few more views of the finished card.....
