Love is in the Hot Air Balloon Shaker Card

Hey everyone!

Finally got around to creating something for Valentines Day! YAY for LOVE! Riding a Hot Air Balloon is still on my bucket list... maybe one day soon I will get to do that!

These cute hot air balloons and cloud stamps I used come from Fleurette Bloom's Up, Up and Away Stamp Set. I used my Spectrum Noir markers to vividly colour them in. The arched banner is a PnC (print and cut) file from her Love is in the Air Hot Air Balloon SVG Kit done with the Silhouette Cameo. I also used the Spellbinder pierced Rectangle dies to create the Shaker portion of the card. 

To finish off the card, I added another stamped sentiment to inside panel. The hearts are also from the Up, Up and Away Stamp Set and the sentiment comes from the Happy Day Stamp Set.

 Hope you "LOVE" my Love is in the Hot Air Balloon Shaker Card and are inspired to create one of your own!

FOR A CHANCE TO WIN the Up, Up, and Away Stamp Set

Spooktacular Halloween Moon Spinner Card

 Hey Guys!!!

Were you able to catch a glimpse of the Blood Moon this past Sunday Evening? Here is a pic we snapped just in case you missed it! I was in awe of this beautiful sight!

Anyways, it seems like the stars were all aligned as I had been working on this cool Halloween Spinner Card for my latest Fleurette Bloom DT Project!



My baby sister celebrated a birthday recently and thought I would make her a non traditional Birthday Card. So happy with how it turned out, it couldn't be any cooler!

Files for this card come from Fleurette Blooms Halloween Card Kit/Collection SVG files and Printables

The Moon and Happy Birthday Stamps come from Fleurette Blooms Sun Moon and Stars Clear Photopolymer Stamps

Here is a photo breakdown of how this card was put together.

Hope you liked my "Spooktacular" Halloween Moon Spinner Card. If you have any questions leave them in the comments and I will happily reply back to you :)

Sea Critters Digi Die Cuts & Stamps Shaker Card

Hello my bloggy friends!

Today I have a really super cute and fairly simple card to share with you from one of Fleurette Bloom's latest Sea Critter Digi Die Cuts and Digi Stamps. I am anxiously awaiting for the arrival of her polymer stamp collection that were recently released, hopefully my happy mail will arrive soon!  In the mean time I want to show you how you can create the stamped look with out the having to do any stamping or colouring by hand.

So here is my Sea Critter Shaker Card! How cute did that turn out?! :)
Looks like they are having a fun "shell-o-bration!"

Here is how I created my card, hope this helps you if you are wanting to make something similar.

• Using the Silhouette Studio Designer Edition software I opened the colored digi files I wanted to use. 
• Next I created a rectangle slightly smaller than the front of the basecard I wanted to use. 
• I then filled the rectangle with a gradient blue. 
• Send rectangle (background image) to the back of the layers. 
• Next you will want to resize and arrange the critters onto the background/rectangle you created. 
• Make sure that the cut setting of the images used inside the background are set to No Cut. 
• For some added fun and interest I added a few layered critters. To do that I traced the outer edge of each image. Next, highlight the image with the outer edge, select the Object function, Modify and create a crop this will create a cut line around the image now if you select Cut Edge in the Cutting options. 
• When you are happy with the layout of your card send the image to your printer, ensure your registrations marks are turned on. 
• Once your images are printed out, you are now ready to cut them out!

Here is a phone pic of what mine looked like once I did the Print and Cut.

(Didn't want to waste paper so I created two cards the same way)

• To finish the card Glue the printed image to the front of your base card. 
• For some fun and dimension I glued some of the other cut out critters onto the printed images using pop dots. 
• The next thing I did was cut out a black border slightly larger then the the image I printed out. 
• Glue some clear acetate to the back of the border. 
• Add a border of foam tape along the edge of the black border, you may want to use two layers of tape to allow your sequins to freely move inside the card.
• Add some sequins/beads to the middle of the card and then attach the acetate black border to the top of the card. 
• All done your shaker card! Embellish as you like ;)

Here is a closer look as these cute critters. :)
