A Die for a Sketch - Challenge #3

Hello everyone,
After a short and sweet vacation with the family, it's been nice to get back into my craft room and playing with all of my craft yumminess! So, here's my project for this month's challenge, a baby boy card. Although it's simple I had fun making it.

I used Stampin Up papers, a Recollections stamp set, Card Word Puzzle stamp set from CTMH, Outdoor Denim ink, CTMH white embossing powder, CTMH neutral hemp, misc. white button brads, and a light gray 5"x5" card base from Studio G.  I hope you'll play along with the monthly challenges at www.adieforasketch.blogspot.ca .Thanks for stopping by!!

Wedding Card

Hi everyone!
I made this card for my cousin who is getting married tomorrow. I used a new paper stack from DCWV called "The Formal Affair". (No worries, I'm still following Kay's Paper Challenge) I absolutely LOVE these papers, they're beautiful!! I used Mojo Monday's sketch 252. Thanks for stopping by!

Hugs,

Latest Design Team projects for Heartfelt Creations Store

Hey all!
Here are my latest projects for the Heartfelt Creations design team. The first is a Christmas mini made from kraft envelopes. (Yes, Christmas in July!). I used the Christmas Emporium collection by Graphic 45, love it!!!! This is the second one I've ever made.


Next I made some some layouts and cards using the "Down The Boardwalk" collection by We R Memory Keepers. I have to admit that I would normally NOT be attracted to the style or colors of this one, but after using it, I fell in LOVE with the entire collection of papers and embellishments. I love how rustic everything is.







And finally I just completed this photo stand display using papers from the "Nostalgia" collection by My Minds Eye. (Tutorial for photo stand can be found at LakeAvenueDesigns youtube channel.) Wow! Could I just tell you how much I REALLY love this set!?!?!? These colors are gorgeous and the embellishments are so versatile, proof you'll see in the different themes in my cards :)













Thanks so much for stopping by!!!

Hugs,
Gloria
