Cards for Kindness part 3


Hello everyone !

This is my third round of cards I made for the Cards for Kindness initiative by Scrapbook.com... You can see the other there : round 1 and round 2.


This batch is made only with papers from the Happy Day stack by DCWV. The only addition to the paper is one happy birthday stamp for this card ;


Of course, I did some fussy cutting for the flowers, doilies and bows...


On the next, I used a edge scissors...


Those cards are pretty simple and quick to make. When you choose a paper pad, be sure to find some journaling cards or cutable elements in it so you will not have to buy some embellishments to complete your projects...



As I will soon travel to France, I think I'm done with cards for now. But be sure I will share with you my others if I'm making more before my departure.

You will find all the informations about Card for Kindness on this page.

Wish you a creative day !
See ya !

Halloween layout

Hello there !

Today I'm sharing with you a layout made with a picture of me and my husband. That is a rare thing...because I'm the one taking picture...This one was taken on a cruise during Halloween week :


The papers came from an Halloween pad by Teresa Collins.  I was not a double sided paper, so I just used two different sheets for the teared paper.
I also cut the center frame with the skull from one of the sheet.


There are many embellishments on this layout... Metal flowers or doilies or leaves, stamped flowers, black bling, buttons, paper flowers...


I also stamped under the embellishments and distress almost everything with black distress ink. The metal embellishments and some of the flowers were paint in black or orange with Impasto paints by Prima, after applying a layer a gesso on them.


I do not have many pictures from Halloween to scrap, so I still have pretty old papers from like 15 years ago... But those are gorgeous !

I know it's not Halloween season (yet), but I'm trying to scrap all the picture I printed this year... and still trying to use my old stash ! I hope you like the result !

See you soon for another project...

Cards for Kindness - Part 2

Hi everyone !

Four more cards made for the Cards for Kindness initiative with another bright paper pad...


Those are paper only cards, made with the Coral and Navy stack by DCWV.


I did few hand cut for flowers and tags, but also use dies for two sentiments.


The thank you came from an old set by Sizzix, and the hello from a word dies set by Tim Holtz.



Such satisfying to use those pretty pad for a cause ! Let's see if I can make few more before sending everything...

See you soon for another project !
And take care...
