Be Inspired #103 World Card Making Day

My inspiration for this Thank You card is that I wanted to make a card for someone whom I have yet to meet! My good friend, Betty, and I are going to go on a trip to Salt Lake City for a Cricut Swarm, and we will be staying with her friend's family. This card is for them. I am so excited to have Betty show me around SLC!

This card is loaded with layers!! It begins on the bottom with strips of lace from Martha Stewart punches, and builds up with Punch Around the Edge designs, also from Martha. Next come gorgeous flower petals that have been embossed with the Cuttlebug, and color added with Memento ink. In the center of the big flowers are the showpieces of Cuttlebug Quilling Flowers! Have you tried them yet??? So easy, and so pretty!

Supplies for this card:

Cuttlebug

Cuttlebug Quilling Kit

Sizzix XL Flower Folds

Daisy Pattern Cuttlebug folder

Martha Stewart punches: String Lace and Garden Trellis

Marco's Paper

Momento Inks: Rich Cocoa, Lady Bug, Danube Blue

Pink Stamper sentiment

Lace and bling are from the Dollar Store

I just love using The Cuttlebug Quilling Kits.

The rest of the design team will have a lot of other cards to share over at Cuttlebug Challenge and I hope you will check it out, too.

Thanks for viewing my Blog.

Be Inspired #98 Under the Sea

This weeks sponsor is Digital Delights by Louby Lou.

This cute card is made from digital images. The fish, sea grass, sand and tag are colored with Copic Markers. For a little bit of dimension I added some Stickles to the fish.

The background is DCWV paper that I ran thru the Cuttlebug using the Swiss Dots folder. It is layered on Core'dinations papers.

I added Glass Effects, ( the sand dollar and star fish and the shell) from Heidi Grace to finish this cute card.

Be Inspired #96 Clearly Creative

For this project I used clear acrylic for the base of the candle. For the candle holder I embossed vellum in the Cuttlebug. I used a 5 x 7 Cuttlebug folder that is an exclusive to Oh My Crafts. I'm sorry but I couldn't find the name of it.

I cut the shade using Provo Crafts Cupcake Wrappers cartridge. It is also lined with vellum. I glued small pearls and added the gold edging . Inside is a battery operated candle.

This cute design was made using clear acetate and the same 5 x 7 Cuttlebug folder as above.

The gold butterflies are from Stampendous. They are placed on vellum and then colored in with Bic markers. I like to give them dimension by layering them. The top layer has clear acetate under the sticker and a gem on top.

Thanks again for visiting my blog. Make sure you stop by next week to see my designs.

From My Heart,

Kristi

Wall Decor and More Cricut Cartridge

I created this frame using the Wall Decor and More cartridge

and it's Cuttlebug companion folder from Provo Craft.

The paper is from DCWV and Core'dinations.

The Vine Cuttlebug folder is highlighted with Memento ink and a blender pen.

For the flowers I used Core'dinations paper and the the new daisy Quilling Kit from Provo Craft. I added Stickles and wire beads that I found at Michael's in the wedding section. The border around the outside is the negative from the quilling die. I hope you like the look of it. I know that I will be using it again.

Be Inspired #94

For this card I have this wonderful verse from Darcies. I stamped it on AC cardstock and ran the Spellbinders die thru my Cuttlebug. The ribbon that I used is from Michaels.

I used paper from The Paper Company for the butterflies and layered them with vellum . They were cut on my Expression using the Wall Decor and More cartridge from Provo Craft. I added the jems and stickels. For the background I used the Allegro Embossing folder from Cuttlebug and highlighted it with Colorbox chalk.

For the edging on the music I used the Cuttlebug Ornamental Iron Die and added stickels and the pearls.
