Just Cards Video Hop Modern Wedding Shaker Card

Hey crafty guys and gals, it's time for this month's round up of video inspiration from the Just Cards Video Hop crew.  The theme this month is wedding/anniversary.  I've created a contemporary wedding card for your viewing pleasure!

(FTC Disclosure: as an affiliate for various companies in the craft industry, I will receive a small commission for purchases made through my convenient affiliate links.  This does not affect your purchase price.)

My project features the exclusive Crate Paper Flourish collection which you can find at scrapbook.com.  I have really enjoyed this collection.  It includes 200 pieces.  Yes, 200!  I am so smitten by the doodled frame and you'll see later in the video, how I built my card with the frame as the featured element.  P.S.... this collection is currently on sale.  Bonus!

You'll also see in my video how I went "old school" for the making of this shaker; no fancy shaker kits.  Just good old fashioned adhesive foam.  All my adhesive products today are from Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L.  I'll have convenient shopping links below because I'm just a little bit of an enabler.  I don't deny it!  Those pretty, sparkly sequins are courtesy of Buttons Galore and their 28 Lilac Lane embellishment line.  These photos can't really capture the iridescent yumminess of those sparkling beauties.  You can find all of the gorgeous 28 Lilac Lane sequin collections, here.

Guest Designing with Deb and Celeste

My crafty pals, Deb and Celeste, asked me if I'd join them on their coffee crafting journey this month, as a guest designer and, of course, I'm not one to turn down the chance at making pretty, coffee themed cards, so I fell to my knees and kissed their coffee stained inky fingers, for allowing me to join in.

I broke out my Crate Paper Maggie Holmes Bloom 12x12 stack, along with the new Hampton Art Stamp designed by my other crafty pal (yes, we're all craft related in this world...) Gloria Stengel.   You can find this awesome coffee stamp at Scrapbook.com.  I do have affiliate shopping links scattered about, for your convenience, if like me, you have to have some of these goodies.

Celeste provided an inspiration mood board as pictured below, and I drew inspiration from the black/white stripes and subtle pinks.

To begin,, I inked my sentiment on a pink piece of my Bloom cardstock, using a Tombow marker to swipe across my stamp for the word "coffee".  For the upper half of my coffee wording, I used a waterbrush and blotted with a paper towel to give a slight faded look.  For the lower half of the coffee word, I added sparkle with my copper Kaisercraft glitter pen.  I love the contrast. 

I added that same pink cardstock to the inside of my card and stamped with the rest of my sentiment by masking with washi tape that I had on hand.

I used chevron ribbon and folded the center of each loop inwards and secured with a piece of Thermoweb glue line, to create a fun double loop effect.   The frame around my sentiment was created by using my Spellbinders Celebration pierced square.  I trimmed a strip of adhesive rosettes and cut them in half lengthwise, to frame my sentiment, adding strips of more Bloom cardstock patterns and Maggie Holmes Crate Paper sequins.

The teacup was also part of the Bloom collection and I fussy cut the image and popped it up on foam mounting tape.  I thought it would be a little too girly to give to my husband for Valentine's Day, so I may just save it and give it to my mom for Mother's day.  What do you think?

Thanks ladies for having me along.  I loved the inspiration mood board! Of course, I have to share what I'm drinking today and that would be Seattle's Best #4 from my French Press and guzzled from my Pfaltzgraff mug that I picked up last year from Big Lots for $4.00.  Love this cup.

Sketch and Coffee/Tea/Cocoa Challenge at TPD Stamps

It's time for a new challenge at Two Paper Divas Stamps and this month we're having a sketch and themed challenge; coffee/tea/cocoa.  Take your pick!  I'm a fan of all three but if I was stranded on a desert island and could only choose one?  It would be coffee, hands down.

For today's project, I'm using a couple stamp sets from the June release.  I chose to color up my "Teacups 2" stamped images with my Zig Clean Color brushes.

Next, I inked up sentiments from the "Keep Calm and Drink" set.   To get those fun splatters, unscrew your ink misting spray and "tap" droplets onto your paper.  I'm using Bo Bunny Bronze Shimmer Spray.

I intentionally colored my teacups to match my papers of choice, the Maggie Holmes Bloom collection from Crate Paper.   My Pen Blade comes in handy for trimming out the inside of the teacup handles.

I hope you'll join us for this fun challenge!  Scroll down if you'd like to purchase the stamps that I've used today.  You can find the challenge and Inlinkz button to link your project here.  This challenge will run for 2 weeks and of course, there will be a fun prize up for grabs.

All About the Eggs with Two Paper Divas Stamps

 I've got a fun card today, featuring one of the new March release stamp sets, "It's All About the Egg", from Two Paper Divas.  There are 6 different eggs with this set and I had so many ideas playing out in my head, it was a bit like sensory overload.  So, I decided to pick one egg, so I could get on with it, haha, and mull over the other eggs another time. 

I think it was Melissa, who did a project recently that featured a retired basket stamp.  Oh, how I wish I had that stamp!  Instead, I made my own basket, drawing it out and stamping it with the TPD background stamp on textured cardstock.

For my eggs, I stamped with a couple juicy inks, then used clear embossing powder with my heat tool and colored in with a little watercoloring.  I love this speckled egg, it is just too cute and there are so many different ways you can go with this stamp.  I also added a sentiment from last month's release, "For Peeps Sake", another new favorite of mine.  I did a little masking on some die-cut clouds and popped them out with foam squares for dimension.

**NEWS FLASH!! - Check in with Two Paper Divas on March 11-13th as we're having a blog hop and there will be prizes to be won!!  Then on March 14th, we're having our monthly challenge with another prize up for grabs.  Lots of fun to be had!

New Release at Two Paper Divas Stamps

Today begins the brand new March release at Two Paper Divas!  I'm so excited that I get to share this new stamp with you, "Be The Reason".  We can all use a little more happy in our world, a little more kindness, a little more love.  What an awesome statement and reminder that it only takes a little effort on our part, to make someone's day brighter. 

I was thinking..... imagine this card without the quote.  It's just a pretty card, right?  But with that lovely sentiment, it transforms into a message; a message of giving!  We all need to be willing to give more, every single day.  That's what life is about.  I'm a firm believer that each one of us serves a purpose in this life and it's up to each one of us as individuals to discover what that purpose is, then strive to fulfill that purpose. 

Ok, so I totally did not intend to preach a sermon today, haha.  But I would encourage you, especially those of us who enjoy crafting and sharing our craft, to find time to give as well as create.  Do you have a lot of cards in your stash?  Take them to school and let the teachers pick some out, bring some to church and give them to that lady that you know loves to send cards, donate to a woman's shelter or create a gift basket for a worthy fundraiser. 

I hope you'll consider adding this wonderful sentiment to your stamping collection.  It's one that I intend to use over and over and over.

Sizzix Love Cup Shaker Treat Box

 Here's a sweet little love treat box, perfect for Valentine's Day.  This was made using the Sizzix Mug and Spoon die, created by Eileen Hull.   There are so many ways you can use this die; I love the possibilities.  I augmented the cut die by trimming off the mug handle and adding a carrying handle at the top.  My husband said this would be good to fill with Godiva truffles. 

I like the way he thinks!  In fact, here you go honey....fill 'er up!

Get this set now at Sizzix and start creating your own adorable treat boxes!

Gold Rush card

When Kinnari Zaveri, owner of Pinkfresh Studio says she wants you to make a gold project, what do you do?  You go make a gold card! 

  

We met and had a lovely chat at the Craft and Hobby Association's Paper Arts trade show in July 2014.  She is a super sweet lady and makes really cool, trendy embellishments.  I thought I would join in the fun so I started out with this beautiful piece of handmade paper, all the way from Nepal.  I purchased this while I was at the trade show and this was the perfect opportunity to put it to use. 

In fact, the TCW stencil and the Crafter's Essential products that I'll be using also came from the Paper Arts show. 
So first....I used the Crafter's Essential Easy See tape to hold down my stencil.

 

Next, I punched several 3/4" circles and placed randomly over some stencil holes.  You'll see why in a minute.

I had a little trouble getting my gold sequins out of the box, so for the first time, I tried out the Easy Grip and it worked great!  Just a little dab on my finger was all it took.

 

 

 

I've got this great sentiment kit from Unity Stamps called, "All About You".  I lined up several random words from the kit to stamp over the stencil.  I'm going to stamp all over the stenciled paper with the entire block of words, saving those circles.....

 

 

Now, those white circles that I used to block out over the stencil?  I used those circles as additional embellishment, raising some with foam dots.  I inked them with Martha Stewart gold ink, painted with Clearsnap Goldrush Smooch Glitz and added some extra gold glitter.  Isn't it pretty?

 

The added embellishments are the May Arts Ribbon natural twine and the neon drop sticker from Pinkfresh Studio, sequins are Pretty Pink Posh and Maggie Holmes for Crate Paper.   I'm entering this card into the gold challenge at Pinkfresh Studio and Unity Friends with Flair.

 

Kinnari, how'd I do?  #grin
