Hi Everybody! I’m Kathleen Adams and I have the honor of being today’s guest designer. I was inspired by my granddaughters love for the boardwalk at Santa Cruz, CA. She never seems to tire of wanting to spend the day there. Here’s how I made this card.
Hi there! It’s Suzanne here to share a get-ready-for-summer project. What is better than going on holidays with friends and/or family and collecting sweet memories of the days when you lived, loved and laughed together? Leave a journal and a jar filled with pencils and pens out on the table to invite impromptu journal entries by one and all!
Sea-inspired “Happy Birthday”
February 27, 2016Hello Crafty Friends! Kathy Jo here to share a sea-inspired birthday card using the lovely Happy Birthday 2 die set from Suzanne Cannon’s A Way With Words collection. Such a great die set- I have used this set several times…love it! Also used on the card is one of my new favorite die sets: Lighthouse from Joset Designs. The birthday greeting and lighthouse go very well together. While I was making the card I decided to make extras of the die cuts so that I can make another card for the stash. (Perfect excuse for more die cutting fun!)
Hello!! It’s Wanda Hentges with you today. We’ve had a lot of really cold weather in Southern Iowa and it’s nice to think about warmer days, maybe by the ocean, walking along picking up shells and enjoying the sunshine. The A Way With Words Dream die, cut from a “dreamy” color of Shimmer Sheetz, combined with the new Swirly Flourish Stage it Stencil from Karen Burniston (a design that makes me think of waves on the sea), Seashells from Joset Designs, and a rope from Ropes 1, a new release from Els van de Burgt Studio, make for a wonderful card. It sends the mind off on thoughts of a day by the seaside.
Good Morning. This is Selma Stevenson today with a card created with the Joset Designs Lighthouse, Small Shells and Large Shells dies. It is always a marvelous feeling to spend time walking along the coastline finding shells, discovering living things like starfish clinging to rocks in the water, seeing crabs, spotting a lighthouse off in the distance. I hope this card brings back those memories.
