Genuine Love and a Little Shimmer to Boot

Being in love is a special thing. To have someone in your life that fills your soul and can lean on you when they need, is a part of that love. Today I'm sharing with you a card I created using the beautiful Trinity Paper Arts Collection Sincerely. I've paired it up with my favorite fancy paper out on the market from Paper Temptress called Mica Metallic and this is what I've come up with.

 I love how the Mica Metallic papers take on rub-ons: so crisp. You can really see the shimmer on that paper. Isn't it scrumptious!!!??!!

 To get some great dimension on this card, I used a combination of Helmar Zapdots and Helmar Liquid Scrap Dots. I sprayed the flowers with True Blood Glimmer mist and they are the perfect match for the Sincerely papers.

The sketch is the New Mojo Monday Sketch, which I haven't played along with forever. Was nice to do that again. 

Thanks so much for stopping by today. I hope you are all having a fantastic week. Talk soon

With it's perfect sentiments and whimsical swirls, I just had to create a Save the Date card. For this card I used the Midnight Madness Embossing Powder as well as the Shell Pink Glitter. I love how these look with the Once upon a Springtime papers from Graphic 45. A few Maya Road stickpins to finish this card and VOILA!!!! A sweet springtime Wedding card.

My favorite moment of our wedding was seeing the love in my husbands eyes as he said his vows. That look melted my heart to the core. I love you sweetheart!!!

Unity Trees and Caardvarks challenge

Hello Everyone and Happy Friday. Today i wanted to share with you a card that I'm submitting for Mojo Monday and Caardvarks this week. I think this one is very different than most of my work, and I really really like it. The colors are so "Mother Earth" and I did a little doodling on the card as well. Here it is and if you like it, leave some love in the comment box. I always enjoy reading what you all have to say.


I really like the feel of this card. Using buttons, hemp, and some very nature inspired papers did the trick. I really like the way the sentiment turned out. Using the tulip rub-ons behind the image then adding some beads to the corners just gave it that finishing touch.
