I used some of the die sets to create this cute scene..

How about a few close ups:

I love this stork stamp and when I seen it, I knew he needed to some soft blush clouds around him :)

the small clouds are in the new Tiny Treausres die set and the large clouds are in the Sky is the Limit die set..

I stamped the sentiment on the bottom of my card along the edge of the fence, which is the print of the papers I used by Bo Bunny..

Bon Voyage-PPPR daily

Hi fellow scrappers and card makers..

Its Nanné here to share a cute card I created show casing the "Are We There?" cutting file.

Here is the card I created:

Us Finns use the fairy cruise a lot.. We go over to Sweden on the Fairy cruise and as well as cross the Baltic Sea to go over to Estonia.. So, I though that this card is so appropriate to send off to a friend, for when they are heading off on a fairy cruise..

how about a few close ups:

I love this saying, the word art is fabulous.. and I wanted it to just pop off of my card, so added the blurb underneath it, attaching it to my card using foam tape..

How cute is this ship.. Attached it using foam tape as well.. 

I also added some of the arrow icons to my card since I tried going for a map look of sorts..LOL

Here are the files I used to create my card:

Are We There yet?

Happy Globe cutting file

Arrow Circles cutting file

Speech Bubbles cutting file

Spirit layout-Creative Embelishments

Hi fellow scrappers..

I'm here today to share a pretty mixed media style layout I've created as my design team project for Creative Embellishments,  using some of the amazing chipboard embellishments from the Creative embellishments store..  

Here is the layout I created:

My daughter absolutely loves horses and has been riding for a while now..

I fell in love with the Feather and beads frame and I know I had to add it to one of my daughters layouts..

I painted it brown, trying to make it look like leather, then added some stickels to the feathers and micro beads to the beads.. Wrapped it with some white leather..

I tucked in some of the Moroccan Lattice panel pieces, which I painted white and added some touches of tuqoise paint.

These feathers from the "Feathers" set are great to add little touches to your layout..

I painted them with turqoise paint, adding some stickles and white paint to the edges..

I also added some micro beads to the centers of the Lattice panel pieces..

here are the products I used:

 

Feathers

 

Morrocan Lattice panel 

Feather and beads frame

Freedom-CE July Creative Embellishments

Hi fellow scrappers..

I'm here today to share my very first project as a new member for the Creative Embellishments design team..  I am so super excited that I have been one of the chosen new team members and to start off July, we have a wonderful photo inspiration challenge for you..

Here is the layout I created for our challenge: 

Our family was lucky enough to get to spend the 4th of July with family up in Dubuque, Iowa one year and watch the air show and fire works.. 

and here is the photo we were inspired by:

plus, theirs a little twist to the challenge and for the month of July, it is to use Stars..

I really wanted to play with some of the mixed media goodies I've been holding onto and decided to just have fun with the chipboards I used, I decided to go with the Star frames and then the chicken wire panel, which I cut up into a few pieces. 

The large star frame I covered with modeling paste and then added some color to it using Gelato's (by Faber-Castell) in red, black and brown.. adding some white paint for highlights.

The banner I cut out of cardstock using my Silhouette Cameo electronic die cutter

I added some glossy accents to the centers of the chicken wire paneling and then put some micro beads in them in blue and red. 

The blue stars are also created using modeling paste, Gelato's (by Faber-Castell) and white paint.

The title on the bottom is just cardstock that I cut with my Cameo, stacking it in a few layers to give it depth. 

Love the look of texture paint and Gelato's together :) 

Here are the products I used to create my layout:

Chicken Wire panel
