Laugh in Flowers

Who's been on a roll for World Card Making Day???  I have.  I've been preparing for a craft show in a couple of weeks and I'm excited!  I need to make more cards though, as I have two craft shows scheduled this month.

I attached some bling on the sticker for more dimension.

Materials used:

This is going to be short and sweet, sweet sweet!  Here are three quick cards I made using stickers from the same Basic Grey sheet I bought for a dollar last week.  It's my first time to directly emboss on my card base, and I like how it came out to be:

For more dimension, I stamped and embossed directly on the sticker.  I also wet embossed the fruits using an embossing pen.

Warm Smiles

Hello crafty reader!  This week started with rain... that will definitely change how the leaves turn colors.  Bummer.

Anyway for today's card, I played with this Basic Grey sticker sheet I bought in Big Lots of $1:

I rarely use stickers in my cards anymore.  So I thought this would be something different.  I intend to use every piece in this sheet for a good batch of cards.  Here's the first one:

Materials used:

image/sentiment:  unknown/RAKed

tools:  Janome Sew Mini

embellishments:  sticker (Basic Grey), flowers (Prima), brads (American Crafts)

Five more days until I raffle out these goodies as kick-off for World Card Making Day on October 1st:

And for some more update, my blog candies for next month are all ready.  What do you think about an EK Success Dimensional Flower Punch, card-making embellishments and stamp sets from Unity, Hampton Art, Inkadinkado and Autumn Leaves to name a few?  Also, I'll be teaming up with a good crafty friend Claire of Kleir's Kreation, who will also be giving away yummy blog candy.
