Hello Spring

Spring has sprung!!!
Which means some days it is sunny and others it pours rain.
Kreaxions Punch #912 has the perfect graphic for this season.

~Hello Spring~

The flower is made using a strip of paper punched with #912. I inked the edges then curled the paper into a circle. I slipped one end under and hot-glued it to the front of my card.
This is the perfect flower to make from scraps.

Supplies:

Paper:My Minds Eye, Craftsmith

Sentiment:Authentique

Life Is a Gift

I'm thankful every morning for running water. 

I'm thankful for indoor plumbing.

I'm thankful for a sturdy house and reliable vehicle.

I'm thankful for all my friends, crafty and otherwise!!!
Sometimes it's necessary to slow down and remember:

~ Life is a Gift ~

Crafting with Kreaxions punches is the quickest way to custom make paper doilies. A plethora of designs and sizes are just a circle cutter and punch away. Keeping a few paper doilies on hand allows for quick card making. I keep a sweet little bin with paper accessories ready on my crafting desk. Try it out, see if you can squeeze just a few more minutes to craft out of your day!

Shine Bright

A little bit of layering and simple color scheme define this card.

Hand made paper doilies add a bit of vintage charm.

These four doilies were made from the same size circles and Kreaxions Punch #916. To get the smaller pair of doilies I used a craft knife to join the punched designs. The negative made a nice swirly frame for another project.

To add a bit of whimsy to this card I used a hexagon embossing folder to frame the sentiment.
