SweetStamps Guest Designer

By
Hi Friends!  Sandy here, I am March's Guest Designer over at SweetStamps Challenge Blog.

You can checkout this week's SweetStamps challenge... SPRING FLOWERS!  I don't know about you but I am ready for warmer temperatures, birds chirping and flowers blooming! 

Plus SCRAPBOOK BLESSINGS CLUB current challenge is using our punches! I used this pretty one from Martha Stewart.

So there are two great challenges for you to play along with this week!

 You can find the tutorial I used to make this cute frame HERE. It is easy to follow, and  I think it is a great way to showcase this pretty stamp. 

And don't forget the inside of the card too! I like to adhere a strip of the pattern paper that I used on the front inside the card to coordinate.

Stamps used for this card are:
Thanks for stopping by and have a blessed day!

    Beautifully done! The frame is such a pretty way to showcase the image. The strip of DP on the inside is a great way to dress up the inside of your card . So nice to have you guest designing with us this month!

    I love how you did this folding technique with the borders along the lines. I'm a new follower. I can't wait to see what else you make.

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! Tools mentioned: Misti, Neehna Bright Cardstock, Distress Oxides, Ranger Dylusions die cut, In Love Art Shop word die cuts, ATG, Prismacolor Pencils, premade cards,Fiskars cutting blade and trimmer, Zig color pens, Wink Of Stella, Alcohol markers, t-ruler, Westcott 0 ruler, 6x6 paper pads, Versamark, EK Success powder tool, 3d Crystal Lacquer, Tombow adhesive, Momento/Hero Arts black ink, Cricut, Chameleon Black Pen, Pencil, Grid stamping block, etc. For the mont

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
