Celebrate BREAKS

 

The last three months have been really hectic. However, I am so grateful for all the opportunities I've had to grow, learn, and continue to blossom. As our lives become more busy we learn to become more appreciative our moments. We learn to Celebrate Breaks. My Minds Eye - Lost & Found (Market Street and Rosy), and Wild Asparagus (The cutest thing-floral/yellow) paper was used develop this card. Spellbinder Dies- Classic Scalloped Ovals Small (largest die in pack) highlights the Greeting Farm Stamp. Prima - Black Say it in Pearls flourish and Avon Rose Romantique, I-rock rhinestones and Recollection flower was used to highlight card. I also inked around the card using Tim Holtz Distress Ink - Dusty Concord. Punched the first layer of paper with EK-Success - Jewel and backed the paper with Coordinations hunter green cardstock.

 

I used Making Memories magnetic stamps to create the title "Celebrate BREAKS".

 

Stampin-Up - Colored Pencils were used to color the Greeting Farm Stamps. I highlighted her hair with Stickles - Crystal. 

Making the card was wonderful, I hope you enjoy making your own. 

Enjoy, Kiki

Blessings

We have so much to be thankful for in our lives. Sometimes it's great just to sit back and be glad that our biggest worry might be laundry. Blessings is a cute card made for a very special someone to say "Thank You". It's just a simple way to say I appreciate. To create this card I used DCWV- Cotton Cottages and Cafe Mediterranean Paper.

The "Blessings" metal image is from Making Memories. 

Scrap paper from My Minds Eye - Totally Girl and K&Company was used to accent the Greeting Farm Stamped Image. 

  Flowers used are from Recollections, Prima and I am Roses. Green trim is by Recollections and is accented with pearls by the yard. Clear rhinestones are from i-ROCK. 

Enjoy,

Kiki

A Little Bit of This and That

 

Hi Everyone,  Here is a new project that I know you are going to love. I painted a eight inch needle hoop Burgundy with FolkArt paint. I stamped on some muslin cloth using FolkArt Metallic Peridot paint. I sprayed the muslin with homemade spritz paint.

 

I used teal and pearl trim on the bottom. Created a stick pin and accented with I Am Roses flowers and leaves. The "Dream" Metal art accent is from the K&Company Brenda Walton-Somerset Words line.

 

Two K&Company Amy Butler Fabric Tags were used to provide a title and story.

 

DCWV-Cafe Mediterranean paper was used to create a Deco Shell accents, using the Martha Stewart Punch and a photo mat. I highlighted the photo mat with Tim Holtz-Barn Door Stamp pad ink.

 

Bling was added with Prima embellishments. Finally, create a lop to hang your frame. 

Simple and delightful. 

Enjoy, Kiki

Spread Your Wings

 

Spread Your Wings was inspired by my nephew. His papa had left him with me while he went shopping. The kid became terribly saddened and just stood by the door waiting for him to return. So, like a good aunt, I told him that Daddy would fly back home and see him in 2 hours (pointing to the clock).

This a 12 x 12 layout. I used DCWV-TradeWinds and Mediterranean Cafe, K&Company -Terri Conrad Sweet Line, and My Minds Eye - Lost and Found paper line.

 

An 8" diameter Medallion Lace Doily was glimmer misted with Tattered Angels - Golden Terracotta. Book leaves (sent in a swap) were crinkled and adhered to the back of the doily. I am roses flowers and leaves were used to accent different parts of the page. Recollections - black rhinestones were also used to strike a dramatic color contrast to draw your eyes to the layout.

 

Images from the Lost and Found paper were put on pop darts to create a 2 dimensional element. A Michaels - $1.00 Bin Hope Glass Tag was adhered to the layout.

 

Flowers were grouped in 3 or more. The title was directly taken from the Lost and Found paper

 

The Martha Stewart - Daisy Fan punch was used with the My Minds Eye - Life Stories paper line. Recollections - Black trim was adhered to the Daisy Fan cut-out. White - Couture Bloom Trim was adhered over the black trim. Crytallzz - green pearls were used as centers of each rose. Two edges of the layout were curled inward to make the layout look vintage.

Enjoy, Kiki
