Washi Love

Happy weekend, everyone! I hope that you're having a good weekend so far! I think that I am coming down with a cold, so I am hoping that will go away soon! It would be a much better weekend without the cold, and without work this morning, but it will still be a good one! :)

I have a card to share with you for the current Moxie Fab Challenge - the stickers and tape challenge!

I made a card similar to this one before (you can see that card here), but I recently bought some new washi tape colors so I decided to make another one! I like how easy it is to make a card with washi tape, especially a colorful one! The washi tapes are from various companies (Recollections and some brand that I found at Target). The letters and hearts are from Lawn Fawn's "Quinn's ABCs" stamp and die and "Trim the Tree" respectively. I'm not sure which set the small hearts are from, but it is definitely from a Lawn Fawn set. :)

Well, thanks for stopping by! I need to go finish laundry now! :)

Hello Friend!

Hi everyone! I hope that you had a good weekend! We had a very productive weekend here. Our new washer and dryer were finally delivered so we did some laundry, we reorganized a little bit in our basement, and we set up some furniture in our extra bedroom. Plus, we spent a bunch of time with family, so it was a great weekend. :)

I have a fun card to share with you this evening! I made this card over the weekend for one of the current Moxie Fab World challenges- incorporating ready-made embellishments!

This card features products from the Pebbles "Lakeside" collection. I covered the card base with a super cute patterned paper (it's so colorful!) and attached one of the journaling cards. I took the flower chipboard, tied some white ribbon around it, and attached it to the journaling card. The four paper strips are extra pieces of patterned paper from the top of the 6x6 paper pads, and they are attached with staples!

If you get a chance, you should definitely play along with this challenge! Using ready-made embellishments make for some really quick cards! :)

Thanks for stopping by! I hope that you have a great week!

Colorful Thanks!

Happy Saturday! I have a fun, colorful card to share with you this morning!!

This card features various washi tapes by Recollections, as well as Lawn Fawn's "Quinn's ABCs" stamp set! I made this previous to receiving my "Quinn's ABCs" dies, but the dies will make this card so easy to create! To make this card, I tore small pieces of various colored washi tapes and placed them on the card. Then I stamped and cut out "thanks" to attach onto of the wahi tapes.

This card is also one of the cards featured in my Etsy shop! You should definitely check out the Whimsipost Etsy shop (you can click on the Whimsipost Etsy Shop link at the top of the page to view the available cards!).

I am also submitting this card to the current Moxie Fab World challenge - The Washi Tape Challenge! I am always amazed at the different uses for washi tape!

Well, thanks for stopping by! The weather this weekend is gorgeous, so I am going to take advantage of that and hang out outside for a while! Enjoy your weekend! :)

You're a Cool Friend

Hello everyone! I have a card to share with you for the current Lawnscaping Challenge - Winter Wonderland!

We had some very cold temperatures last week and an ice storm yesterday, so I am familiar with winter (maybe not the wonderland part...). I focused on the cold part of winter, and created this card:

This card features patterned paper from Pebbles's "Hip Hip Hooray" paper collection as well as Lawn Fawn's "Quinn's ABCs," and "Making Frosty Friends." I also added some diamond Stickles to the "cool" letters, but it is a little hard to see in the picture.

This card only measures 3''x3'' so I am also entering this into the Moxie Fab Challenge - Make an Itty Bitty Card. It is such a small space to work with!

Thanks for stopping by! :)

Tuesday Trigger: By the Numbers

Hello everyone! I hope your enjoying your Mondays at work! I am fortunate to have the day off, so I did some cleaning around the house and I plan on making some crafts this afternoon! Woohoo! :)

Today I have a card to share with you that I made for this week's Tuesday Trigger. The idea is to make a card based on this picture:


So, I took the idea of the cute numbers, applied a little bit of math to it, and made this card:


My husband and I both graduated college with math degrees, so this card will be perfect for Valentine's Day or our anniversary. Well, thanks for stopping by and the enjoy the rest of your day!

P.S. Sorry about the bad picture. I'm not sure why this one is so dark!

The Vertical Sketch #2

Hello everyone! I hope that you enjoyed your Labor Day weekend! My husband and I didn't go anywhere this year, but we still had a nice, relaxing time at home. Earlier in the weekend, I found a fun cross-stitch rooster project hidden in my desk, so I've had a lot of time to work on that!

Anyways, here is another card that I made for the Vertical Sketch Challenge at the Moxie Fab World.



I like this one better than the first one. I was able to use some new Halloween paper that I recently bought, and I also used some buttons, which is usually not my style. But, it was a lot of fun! Thanks for stopping by!

The Vertical Sketch #1

Good afternoon! I hope that you are enjoying your nice, long Labor Day weekend! Unfortunately, I had to work this morning, but thankfully Monday is a holiday!

Here is a card that I made for The Vertical Sketch Challenge over at the Moxie Fab World. This sketch was so fun to work with because banners are so fun! It also gave me a reason to use those cute chipboard letters that I recently bought!



That's all for today. Enjoy your weekend!
