Tuesday Card Day!

Welcome Crafters! Teresa here from Fresh and Renewed . I have a super, cute,  summer card to share with you today. I am back from all my vacations and ready to get back into a good routine both at home and with my crafting. So, I am planning to start posting to my blog on a really regular basis and actually post things other than crafting and also other than my design team days! So stay tuned! Now on to today's card.  Make sure you enter our current challenge. Tip: Create several card fronts at a time instead of the whole card and you will have a quick grab to make a fast card in a pinch. Supplies Used: Summer Bliss by Echo Park Bling from my stash Summer Marci from LaLa Land Crafts Spectrum-Noir Markers Crafting Desert Diva Stamps ...Summer Lovin' Fresh and Renewed Hope you have a blessed day and thanks for stopping by,

Writing from Paris

Hi Friends,   Sandy here with my   Scrapbook Stamp Society DT  creation for you!  Today we are coloring My Besties with Prismacolor pencils and gamsol.  I have a very easy corner card to showcase My Bestie Digi... Here is a close up of this sweet little girl. Her outfit reminded me of Paris. To add some interest, I decided to make her a pop up on the card. MY CARD TIP: Keep the embellishments to a minimum.  This card will fold down flat to mail and if you add too many 3d items,  it will make your card too bulky.  You can find this digital stamp and many, many more at  the   Scrapbook Stamp Society  or  ETSY  stores. Thank you for stopping by and have a blessed day! ♥ Scrapbook Blessings Club ♥ ♥ A Working Mom's Joy ♥

Sad, old canvas I painted my canvas with Apple Barrel acrylic paint in a Spring Green color.  After covering with paint, let it dry while you do the next part. I'm seriously messy!  Dry time approximately 1 hour. My inspiration for this project came from  Pinterest .  I found this image which was available for ...
