Arizona Adventure layout


 Arizona Adventure layout



Most of the cardstock and inks are Close to My Heart unless stated.
I'm working on using up some of my stash. Mostly using up retired paper, stamps, embellishments.
I chose a layout from CTMH Make it From the Heart Volume 2, layout 8.
For the base I used a current color cardstock, Pebble, both sides as this is a two tone cardstock.
I also used Outdoor Denim, and White Daisy.
I did not have any Autumn Terracotta so I used the Exclusive ink to color the White Daisy cardstock. I also used Outdoor Denim ink. The letters are colored with Autumn Terracotta Water color pencils. The dashes are colored with black and Star Spangled Blue Water Color pencils. 
I used many stamp sets for this project. The arrow on the borders is from Cricut Art Phiosophy Celebration(D1497), the arrow on the 2nd page is from You're the Bomb, Operation Smile(C1617),
the arrow on the 1st page is from Happiness Lives Here and Fabulous, Friends (B1430), the chevron is from Have a Happy day(D1616) , the banner on 2nd page is from This Moment, Stamp of the Month(S1501), and 2017 is from Who tells Your Story, Convention 2017(D1756). 
The Outdoor Denim border is a Martha Stewart border punch from Michaels. The ribbon is from Michaels as well. 
 Durables Triangle studs(Z1928), The tags are from my stash, not sure which Cricut cartridge and the orange, blue and green complements I' not sure where they came from. 
Hope you enjoyed my project!
Have a great day!

Wedding Card



I took some inspiration form a card on Pinterest.
This is a 5X6.5 inch card. I used Basic fundamentals, Whisper, White Daisy, Bashful and a retired paper pack which I think was a wedding one. Also used Bashful and Pewter ink, Tender pink and Sap green Shinhan markers. To a Special Couple(B1585), stamp set, Hearts Thin Cuts(Z3260). I masked parts of the stamp so I could put part on the front and the rest inside adding the little border from the top to the second part of the message. The whisper heart and button are from CTMH Artiste. I added a piece of White Daisy cardstock to cover the corner that's folded as I didn't want to have the flowered reverse side of the paper. I used a framelit for the centre of the sentiment and then traced around the frame to give it a little pop. A little bling added with bitty sparkles.



I enjoyed making this card! Hope you enjoy it as well.


Have a great day!!
