A Snail's Happy Place Card

Hello!  Today I'm sharing a fun card I made for this month's Waffle Flower Challenge.  I loved the colors and the flowers shown in the inspirational photo- so pretty!  They inspired me to create this:

These little snails from the Snail Mail Stamp Set are so cute!  I imagined them in a little oasis of flowers in a garden somewhere in the shade- doesn't that sound like a happy place? :)  I stamped these pretty flowers from the A Bunch Stamp Set to go along with the adorable snails.  Everything has been painted with water and residual ink from my ink pads.  When everything was dry,  I used the matching A Bunch Die and Snail Mail Die to cut everything out.  The sentiment came from the fun, new Balloon Messages Stamp Set.

After everything was cut out, I layered it on to the pink card base.  I used some foam adhesive dots to add dimension here and there.  I love how it turned out!

Thinking of You Card

Hi!  Today I have a fun card inspired by this month's Waffle Flower Challenge!  I loved the colors in the inspirational photo and the fact that the flowers were coming out of the umbrella- so cute!  I planted my flowers in a teacup to mimic the look:

The background was stamped with the beautiful Lacy Flower Stamp Set.  I used the largest image with white ink.  Next, I added a bit of white spatter over the top of it.  I let it dry and then embossed it with a wide stripe embossing folder.

The focal panel was cut using the Lacy Layers Die.  I stamped the sentiment from the Lacy Flower Stamp Set along the bottom.  I added a bit of washi to act as my foundation for my focal image.  The focal image was created using the Warm Wishes Stamp Set and the A Bunch Stamp Set.  I colored them with Copic markers and fussy cut around the image.  I added it to the card with a foam dot for dimension.

The challenge will be going on for a few more days!  Pop over to the Waffle Flower Blog to check out the inspiration for this month!  It's a cute one and if you play along, you'll have a chance to win some free goodies! :)

Thankful For You Card

Good morning!  I'm starting my day off with a pumpkin spice latte delivered by my sweet hubby from Starbucks!  You can't get better than that! :)  Well, maybe if I had the day off to craft... hee hee!

I have a card to share today!  It features stamps from Waffle Flower Crafts:

As soon as I saw the cute jar stamp from the new Good Stuff Stamp Set I knew I had to pair it with the daisies from the A Bunch Stamp Set!  I decided to go with a cleaner look for this card and started with some bold patterned paper from Echo Park.  I stamped everything out and then die cut it all using the matching dies!  I am so happy for matching dies! :) The sentiment is from the Holiday Labels Give Thanks Stamp Set- isn't it nice?

This one was super quick- no coloring or cutting thanks to these fun stamps and dies!!  Thanks for stopping by today!

New Goodies From Waffle Flower Crafts

Hi!  We've had a crazy last few days and I didn't get to post my cards for the latest Waffle Flower Crafts release yesterday!  I guess that means you'll get three today instead :)  Have you checked out the Waffle Flower Blog this week?  The new goodies are so fun!  I was so inspired by them all!

My first card features the new Doily Square Stamp Set.  I just love this sentiment, don't you?  It's so fun!!  I went with the square theme and cut a bunch of different patterned papers into squares and layered them on a white card front.  I added the sentiment last with foam adhesive after stitching around it.

For this card, I used the new Doily Circle Stamp Set.  It is such a complete stamp set and there are so many things you can do with it!  I went for a cleaner look with this one, using the border stamp and pretty sentiment.

My last card today features a few new goodies.  The Doily Circle Die is in the back, cut out of vellum.  The flowers and sentiment are from the new A Bunch Stamp Set.  The banner from the Congrats Stamp Set is also featured, and I used the Tiny Bow Die as an accent.  Such fun new things!!  The flowers were colored with the Zig markers found in the Waffle Flower store.

I'm sure you can tell how much I love this new release!  Nina will be sharing new things all week- stop by the Waffle Flower Blog so you don't miss anything!  Be sure to leave a comment there for a chance to win some new goodies, too!
