Welcome to another super mini blog hop from the Just Crazy Blessed team! If you are hopping along, you should have come from Janna’s blog. However, if you started here, that’s ok, you will go to Janna’s blog next! (I did say it was a super mini blog hop, right?)

Today we are going to show off some embossing folders! Embossing folders are so much fun! You can do so many different things with them. Today I am showing you just plain ol’ embossing with them! However, I do have two cards for you!

First up is this fun, vibrant card! I love this little girl from the True Love Operation Smile Stamp Set! As you can see, there is a whole lot of the new Sea Glass color happening, in the embossed cardstock and the glitter paper!

I used a few different Shin-han markers to color her in after I stamped it with the Archival Black ink. I used the new Wood Slats embossing folder and the new Hello & Thanks thin cuts. And what card is complete without some bitty sparkles spread throughout?!

Next up is another card using the Hello & Thanks thin cuts. However, this time the hello is cut out of the Sea Glass Glitter paper!

Now, there are all sorts of fun new things on this card! There is one of the dotted gold foil overlays from the All About the Gold Fundamentals, some Lemon Ink, some ribbon from the Enchantment ribbon pack, Sea Glass cardstock embossed with the Happy Thoughts embossing folder, a new stamp set, that’s just Dandy, cuts from the Flower Market Cricut Cartridge, and the new shimmer brush!

The list above doesn’t even include the other not so ‘new’ things, like the Card base, whisper cardstock, white daisy cardstock, peacock cardstock & ink, bitty sparkles, and the things needed to put it together like liquid glass, foam tape and Thin 3-D foam tape!

I love all the details that you can see in this photo! You can see the shimmer on the whisper cardstock from the shimmer pen, the sparkle of the glitter paper, the dimension of the embossing folder, and even the edge of the overlay! This card was such a FUN card to make!

I hope you have enjoyed my cards today! Thank you for stopping by! Next, you should hop on over to Janna’s blog! She always has such great artwork!!

I would love to know what you think about my cards! Take a few moments and jot a quick comment for me! I read all of them, and appreciate them very much!

Until next time!

Welcome to the CTMH Technique Blog Hop! You should have arrived here from Darlys’ blog, however, if you are starting here, no worries, it’s a round blog hop!

Today we are going to show you some fantastic creations with the fabulous Flower Market Cartridge. It is such a FUN cartridge! You’ve seen some of my previous cards that I made with it, and here’s another one!!

I saw a fun card on pinterest, and thought, HEY! I have some of those images on this cartridge!! So, tinkering away I went! I’ve had a lot of fun with shaker cards! This one was no different!

I used the This & That stamp set on this card, paired with Archival Black ink.

Isn’t that “confetti” fun inside the umbrella? Two different sizes and colors of paper in there! I cut up a page protector for my window, and attached the grey for the handle and spindles right on top of it! I popped up one of the clouds to give a bit more dimension. That tiny pop of color that you see in the background is from the Whimsy Fundamentals pack. These packs are FANTASTIC!!

I know you will LOVE this cartridge! So many images for you to use! Just like the other cartridges, there are 700 different images, before sizes!

Now, it’s time for you to leave a comment and let me know what you think, and then hop on over to Janna’s blog.

Thanks for stopping by!

Until next time!

Welcome to another week of a Just Crazy Blessed team members blog hop! Today we are showing off the Flower Market Cricut bundle and some of the Thin Cuts Dies. We have just a few stops for you today, but I hope you like all of the projects that you get to see!

Today I have three different cards for you! We will start with the Thin Cuts Die card. I used the Hello & Thanks set for this fun card.

Would you believe that I have ONLY White Daisy cardstock on this card? Really! That’s the only cardstock! I know, it’s kind of a trick question, because there is another color on there, but I used the Turquoise Blue ShinHan Touch Twin marker to make a mat and colored one of the dies that I cut.

It was such a FUN card to make! (and with cards like this, Liquid Glass is your BEST FRIEND!!)

Next I have a card with a fun woven background.

The flowers and vase are from the Flower Market Cricut Cartridge. The sentiment is stamped in Archival Black ink with one of the sentiment stamps that are includes in the Flower Market bundle! (as are the cardstock colors for the flowers themselves) The Vase uses a bit of paper from the Whimsy Fundamentals pack.

The next card I had a bit of fun with in Design Space. I used the Flower Market font to make the word “happy” and welded the letters onto a rectangle to create the little band.

Then I used the “birthday” from the Sweet Birthday set, and stamped that with Archival black. Wrapped a bit of white twine around the kraft paper and used foam tape to give it a bit of dimension! The pink paper is also from the Whimsy Fundamentals pack.

I hope you like my cards today! If you would like to make some like this, just let me know, and we can get that worked out! Let me know below, what you think about my cards! Which is YOUR favorite??

Welcome to the Just Crazy Blessed Team mini blog hop. Today we have just two participants, myself and Janna. Lots of people are away for the holiday weekend, so they weren’t able to participate.

Today I am going to show you a set of 6 cards using the Picture My Life (PML) cards from the Swan Lake paper pack.

I made this set of 6 cards with ONLY the sheet of PML cards from the pack, and two sheets of White Daisy cardstock. I think that the set of cards turned out pretty awesome!

Three of these cards have no stamping on them, and three have some stamping on them. I used the September Stamp of the Month, Blessed Beyond Measure, and This & That.

I also used one of the Create Kindness stamp sets, Enjoy the little things. These are fantastic little M sized stamp sets that are perfect to add to your stash for quick card making!

Most of the cards are fairly simple . . . which makes them really easy to put together!

Just some minimal cutting, and you have some great cards to add to your stash!

In the next couple of days I will share how I made the extra cuts on these cards, so you can make a set for yourself!

I just wanted to show you that these fun cards don’t have to be used in the Pocket pages for scrapbooking, nor on a traditional page layout!

I hope you enjoyed them! Please leave me a comment and let me know what you think!

For now, hop on over to Janna’s blog, and see the fantastic layout that she created for you!

Welcome to our JCB Monthly Blog Hop!

This month there are a few of us highlighting the Jeepers Creepers paper pack. This blog hop is a big circle so you can start wherever you want and continue through to see all the fabulous artwork incorporating the Jeepers Creepers Paper collection.

While I have many years of photos to catch up on for Halloween pages, I just couldn’t pass up the opportunity to do a fun little treat box with this fantastic monster paper!

I’m all about monsters! I cannot wait until my stamp set and thin cuts get here!

I found a video that I liked the little box on, but then decided I wanted to change it up some so that my gift card would stand upright and stick out of the top. So, I did! I really like how it turned out!

It holds a fun gift card in the sentiment portion of the box, and treats inside! I used the Black Shimmer Ribbon tied off with the White Twine to use as a pull tab for the gift card.

I used the leftover side pieces from the box to make the little banners. I stamped them with Jennifer’s Hand stamp set in Archival Black ink. I don’t know about you, but when this font finally retires (luckily no time soon!!), I will be so sad!

Now, I hope you liked my little treat box! I know I had fun making it! (it’s the first time I’ve designed my own box!) I know the other ladies have some fantastic projects for you! So, use the fabulous little arrows below to navigate through the hop!

Thanks for stopping by! Please leave me a comment to let me know what you think!
