April Sneak Peeks Day 1

Happy, happy Monday, everyone! I'm so excited to be back with our April 2015 sneak peeks from Pretty Cute Stamps. We'll also have sneak peeks for you tomorrow, then the new stamps will be released on Wednesday. Today, we are sharing projects we created using two of the new stamp sets for this month that are perfect for the men in our lives. Plus, I have a fun freebie cutting file/ clip art from our sister site, Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons, to share with you today, only. So, let's get this show on the road.

Our first sneak peeks are from a new set called Such a Tool:

Karla Yungwirth from Creative Love Affair created a fun Father's Day card using this set. She decorated the outside and inside of her card and also created a decorative envelope to go along with it. I love all of the texture she added. Stop by her blog to find out all of the details about this project.

Raven Baca from Love 4 Stamps also created a cool card using this set. I love the bright color scheme and the way she stamped the tools on vellum. Be sure to check out Raven's blog to learn all of the details about her card.

I also have a sneak peek of the new stamp set, Best Dad Evah:

I decided to keep these 4 inch mini cards really simple. Sometimes, I think that's the best way to go with masculine cards. Here are some close ups of some of the fun images and sentiments from this new set:

Okay, now I have that fun FREEBIE from Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons. This Power Drill Cutting File is free for you guys today only (April 13, 2015). This file includes .SVG and .DXF cutting files, along with .PNG and .JPG clipart images. YAY! Click the photo to pick up this cute little freebie (which, by the way, will go PERFECTLY with the Such a Tool stamp set).

Thank you so much for stopping by today. Be sure to come back tomorrow for more adorable sneak peeks! Have a great day, everyone!

Deer One

I have a sweet card for you today that would work perfectly for many different occasions depending on the sentiment that you put inside the card.

The star of this card is the cute deer from the Forest Friends set.

I started with a white cardstock base and then put down fun layer of pink cardstock and a corrugated cardstock.

The stamped layer and green layer were cut out using stitched dies.  I colored the deer with Spectrum Noir markers and also created the grass with short brush strokes.

Since Pretty Cute Stamps are clear, it was very easy to position the sentiment just where I wanted it.

I added a few sequins and pretty flower and twine bow to finish up this cheerful card.

Thank you for stopping by today!

Happy Stamping!

Doll Face

Okay so I'm addicted to my planner. I will be the first to admit it. But there is just something about having a functional planner that can make my life seem so much more at peace. I know whats going on with the kids and I know where everything goes AND to boot I can make it pretty. Everything is better with some glitter and pink added to it. 

SOOOOO...today's post showcases some really fun paperclips that I made using the adorable new stamp set from Pretty Cute Stamps called Matryoshka Mom. 

These stamps are just the cutest and when paired with some Prismacolors and pretty paper you have fun little gifts that you can give to neighbors as Thank you's or on Mother's Day to those special women in your life. 

I just love them. I hope you all enjoy seeing planner stuff because I'm addicted to it lol. Have a great week!

Hugs,

Raven

Nesting Doll Thanks!

Matryoshka Mom is a darling new set from Pretty Cute Stamps.

The sentiments cover pregnancy, gratitude, Mother's Day...

and general adorable-ness!

I kept this layout simple so your eye is focused on the dolls and the colors combo.

Remember, Mother's Day is in a month. Don't be last minute in a gift! 

And..thank you mom any month...not just May!

There's GNOMEbody like you!

Good morning friends. Larissa here with a shaker card using the new Gnomie stamp set.
This stamp was part of last weeks release. 

Is it not the cutest you have ever seen. 

I started off stamping the mushroom home and the little girl on a piece of white cardstock. I colored the images with my Copic markers. I cut the square frame and a piece of clear transparency sheet for the shaker. 

I threw in some red and green sequins with some silver glitter.

I popped the little girl gnome and sentiment on the outside of the frame.
I found this pattern paper from MME and thought it was a perfect match.

I hope you enjoyed my post today.
Have a wonderful Wednesday friends.
