Happy Hump Day!  I have a cute card for you that I did from a tutorial that was posted recently from DT Pam.  She gave us all the instructions to make these pretty ribbon flowers.  I had to give it a try!  Love the tutorials on CSDivas!!!
Carts used: Home Decor for the "love" word 
and Plantin Schoolbook for the "you" letters

I decided to make a single ribbon flower layer (Pam's tutorial showed a double layer). I added a heart brad, little pale pink chalk around the card edge and Viola! Cute, simple card.  Thanks for the tutorial and inspiration Pam!!!

I am also offering blog candy to anyone who comments not just on this post post but all week!  I will add up all the comments and pick a winner on Feb 15th!!!  Here it is:
See you tomorrow!!!

    Love the card, the ribbon into a bow is a fantastic idea, and it will lay down well in an envie. I'll give this a try for sure.

Building Block Graduation Card

By
Hello, everyone! Melissa here on to share a "building block" style card with you. I made this one graduation themed, since there are a ton of graduations going on right now. Hope you enjoy this card, and are inspired to try it out yourself. Here is the tutorial I followed from Split Coast Stampers. To make it easier, I will give you all the measurements, here. It looks harder than it is, I promise. Start with a piece of cardstock in your desired color that is 5.5 x 10.5. Put the 10.5 inch side along the top of your score board or paper trimmer, and score at 3.5 inches and 7 inches. Fold the first score line in a mountain fold, and the second in a valley fold. You should end up with a "z" fold card. The next part can get a bit tricky, so make sure you watch the video to fully understand what I am about to explain. On the back side of the "valley" fold, take a ruler and pencil and mark these measurements: 3/8 1 3/8 1 5/8 2 5/8 2 7/8 3 7/8 ...

My Favorite Craft Tools and Giveaway!!!

By
Hi everyone, Today's video is a fun one for me. Since getting back into crafting I have noticed that I am pulling certain items over and over again and thought it would be fun to share with you. Two years ago, I took a step back from crafty and downsized 75% of my craft room.  However with just these awesome tools, I have been able to get back into the swing of things and I don't miss having a larger craft room. Personally, I feel every crafter should have these starting out.  They make creating easy and fun!
