Walk in the park-PPPR daily

Hi fellow crafters..
I'm here to share a cute layout I created as my design team project for Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons using some photos of my husband as we took a nice walk through a park here in Finland a few summers ago..

Here is the layout I created:


I had so much fun putting this cutey together..

how about some close ups and details:

I found a font in my stash, cut it with my cameo and then flipped the letters onto the back of some corrugated cardstock, traced the edges and then cut with scissors. I then inked the edges with some distress ink..

I added lots of layers to my layout by putting my paper piecing's together using foam tape..

and the bees are just too cute for words..

Here are the cutting files I used to create my layout:


Thank you for stopping by today..
till next time

Spring themed Pocket Letter-PPPR daily

Hi everyone..
I'm here today to share a fun Spring themed pocket letter I've created as my design team project for Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons for a swap that I've joined with a lady in Japan.. I'm so excited about sending it and I'm so addicted to sharing my projects with awesome crafter's from all over the world..

Here is my pocket letter:


I tried to stick with Spring colors and added lots of spring themed goodies to my pocket letter

how about some close ups and details:
Added the work HI using some free fonts that I found online, adding the pencil to make it look like its hand written :)

Seed packets and a water can, plus flowers..  


I also created a bottle cap charm.. Super easy.. I fed it through my Cuddle Bug to flatten it, then created the center using my Silhouette software.. Made a circle shape just under 1" and added the umbrella and text on top.. Then I print and cut around edge, used glossy accents to adhere it to the bottle cap and adding more glossy accents to the top.. Punched a hole with my Crop-a-dile and then the key chain :)

What Spring themed pocket letter is complete without a cute little spring lamb and tulips.

Here are the files I used to create my Pocket Letter:


I think I remember it all LOL
Thank you for stopping by today and checking out my daily project..
Till next time

Lots of Layers-Link it up-CDD

Welcome to the Craft It Up and Link It Up Linky Party hosted by Tara of Craftin Desert Divas

I decided to create lots of layers using stamps.. :)
Masking is one of my favorite techniques when it comes to layering stamped images..

I started my images by stamping the grass first and then adding everything else afterwards by masking off the images I want to stay up front..

I wanted the swirl behind the ladybug to look like it's attached to the sentiment :)

Here are the stamps I used to create my card:
  

5x7 5x7
