Little Blue Bird

Here's a sweet image from Day for Daisies.  I just love their cute little girls.  I added some wonderful Turkish lace to this project.  YUM.  Now that we are basically in spring here in Texas, I thought this card with the blue bird was just perfect.  This company is our sponsor this month at YSBP Challenge, so drop by over there and share your creations with us!

Live out Loud

Here's a stunning image from Day for Daisies.  I just love their beautiful girl images.  I also had to add some gorgeous Turkish Lace to this card.  Isn't she just perfect?

Hello There

Here's a beautiful tiny fairy image from Day for Daisies.  I just love this artist's images, esp her little fairy stamps.  This one is no exception.  I made her bright and beautiful so she would pop right off the card.  The challenge this week on the Monday Greetings Challenge at Outlawz is to use chalk somewhere.  I used chalk on the background paper, I smeared it across the background to add the beautiful color as well as on the edges of the die cut. 

Share a card that you use a little chalk on...and, don't forget a sentiment for the Greetings Challenge.  no image is required. Monday Outlawz Greetings.

Cheers, Holley

Project materials:  Cardstock(Bazzill Glazed, Neenah); Image (Day for Daisies); pearls (Micheals); Die Cut (Spellbinders Nestabilities); Chalk (); Sentiment (); Adhesives (pop dots, Glue all);

Operation Write Home

Here's a gorgeous card that was made for Operation Write Home (OWH).  I was in a blog hop last week and I spoke about this program which is collecting cards to be sent to the soldiers.  There was a wonderful group of companies that are supporting this cause, including A Day For Daisies, which gave me this adorable little fairy stamp that I used to create this card.  I will be donating this card to OWH.  This cute fairy is called Tiny Bell Fairy.  I am using a sentiment from Sweet Pea Stamps.  I am sure a soldier will send this to a family member wishing to them that their dreams to come true, I left the inside blank, so it could be used to wish birthday greetings, missing you wishes, or other sentiments.

All the gorgeous papers on this card are from Paper Temptress.  The base of the card is a thick column cardstock called Canyon Brown Skinny Columns.  The wonderful textured paper on the base is ruche called Sky Blue Crepe.  The white paper which has the digi-stamp fairy and the stamped sentiment on it is Heavenly White. I also added a tiny border that I created with a Martha Stewart punch using a small leftover strip of Basis Gold.  I edged all the textured cardstocks with various types of ink to give some depth to the card.

Don't forget that Paper Temptress is having a wonderful Contest filled with prizes from many companies and they are also collecting cards, just like the one shown here.  There are guidelines for the requested cards (click here).  The contest and the address to send your cards to this program is included  HERE (click here). 

Cheers all!  Holley
