Beautiful Life

Hello my lovely friends happy Sunday!!

We got snow this morning here in upstate NY!

I want it to be warm soooo bad :)

So I just wanted to blog a wee Spring card I made last week that I love.

I adore this stamp so very much. 

A cup to go and butterflies two of my favourite things!!

I used the sentiment as my background by just repeating it over and over again.

I really like using sentiments like this because it gives you more uses for your stamp.  

I went with Kraft card and white with just a touch of blue on the butterflies.

This is one of the membership stamps from Unity called Flutters to Go. 

Here is a wee video on how I made it.

Linking up with

Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge

Craft Stamper April Challenge

Hello Friends

It is that time again! 

A new month means a new challenge on the Craft Stamper blog.

As always we have an anything goes challenge for you. 

This month I was messing around with paints and created this background. 

Then I cut up a magazine and punched out some hearts with text and underlined some words.

The Stamps are from Unity and the kit is called Let Go & Breathe.

I used the hearts and the meditating girl stamps from this kit.

To finish it off I sprinkled a wee bit of glitter. 

It is one of those cards I am not sure about. 

It is totally not my usual style but I did love playing with all of the elements. 

It is always fun to experiment with new things.

Now it's your turn to come and join in this month's challenge. 

We have some fab prized up for grabs as always. 

This month our sponsor is www.imaginedesigncreate.co.uk

They are giving away these fab stamp sets.

Hop on over to the Craft Stamper blog for all of the details.

Thanks for stopping by!

Craft Stamper Reminder

Hello Friends! 

I am back with a wee reminder for the Craft Stamper Challenge.

I went all Christmassy with my card today.

Then I wrapped the sentiment around the card with some silver twine.

I hope you have time to come and join us this month.
