Girly Cards using Lasting Impressions Paper Pad

 Here are some girly looking cards using a very old 6" x 6" paper pad by Lasting Impressions called "Just The Girls".

 Wink of Stella shimmer pen was used to the center of the flowers.  After  I added clear Nuvo drops to give some dimensional look to the centers of the flowers.

 I added some hand drawn lines around the sentiment stamp.  It gives a new look to my stamp. A layer of vellum gives a nice base to add some embellishments that would have been lost on a  busy pattern paper.

 The paper pad had a couple of sheet with sweet cut outs.   Using leftover strip for these last two cards.  This collection would make great Mother's Day cards too.

Scrappy Quilting

 Little by little I have been trying to use up my left over scraps.  Looking at Pinterest for some ideas on how to proceed with a scrappy quilt.  With so many wonderful ideas, I decided to  sew up my scraps lager enough to cut out a 5 inch squares, using an acrylic ruler. I had left over blocks from prior projects that made sewing up this quilt faster. Using my walking foot to do simple straight lines. I really love the way this mini quilt turned out.  I think this is a great way to use up left over blocks and scraps. This was another quilt using 4 inch blocks and yes using scraps.

Cards Using Crate Paper "Style Board"

Image
A few cards made using a cute pattern papers from Crate Paper 6 x 6 paper pad called "Style Board".  A very simple and quick card layout. I pulled out several sheets of paper from the paper pad and looked through my ribbon box and sticker/embellishment stash to see what would go well with the papers. These cute little bird in a bird cage stickers?  An oldie by Jolee's Boutique called "Vintage Bird Cages" #50-20363.   "Many thanks" sentiment is a sticker and not a stamp.  I have had this cute birthday die cut for a long while and I was happy to have finally used it. "Free Spirit" is a chipboard piece by an old K&Company called "Dear Olivia". Fussy cut out flowers from the collection  I also used some Tim Holtz idea-ology stickers from the "quotations" packet.

Using Wrapping Paper

A small piece of gift wrap left over.  I used one of my rectangle stitched die to cut out some panels. I ran a few through an embossing folder.  No bad for a last minute card idea.   Stamped sentiments came from Papertrey Ink.
