Birthday Daisies

Hi peeps. I am up on The Ton blog today with this happy, bright daisies. Please visit the  blog for more details. Wishing you all a great weekend!

Get Cracking on Christmas Challenge Hop

Every year, come Chrismas time I always scramble to make Christmas cards. I mean, I always have the good intention on getting ready early, but in reality that very rarely happen.

And, yep, I have quite a few cute holiday sets that I haven’t even had a chance to play with yet.

So, Jenn Shurkus was mentioning about this challenge she does with our crafty friends Chari and Cheiron. Basically they challenge each other to create at least one-holiday card a month. Well, ofr this month, she sent open invitation for us to join this hop. Since I need to do this to build up my Christmas card stash, of course I jump in at the chance.

You should arrive here from my dear friend, the super talented, Emily Midgett. In case you miss any stop, I have complete link of the hop participants at the end of the post.

So, for my card, I played with Pinkfresh Studio Happy Holidays set. I think this is a great set to use for mass produce as there's not way too many area to color.

To add some festive feeling to the card, I trace the Happy Holidays part with Copic Spica glitter pen. Below is pic of the card from different angle and you could see the shimmer on the sentiment and the trees.

GIVEAWAY

Now, how about a giveaway to make the hop more fun. Along the way, some of the hop participants will do giveaway. You will need to check each blog. For my blog, I am giving away this Pinkfresh Studio Joy & Cheer stamp & dies set.

All you need to do is to leave a comment here and if you'd like to follow me on Instagram, you can find me under "Wirianta". It's not a requirement as I really prefer people to follow because they want to. Please leave your comment here by midnight, Sunday 7/22/2018. Winner will be announce on Monday 7/23/2018.

SugarPea Designs Sweet 2 Repeat Blog Hop

Hi peeps! Happy Friday and welcome to SugarPea Designs Sweet2Repeat Blog Hop! I hope by now many of you have our cute Summer Release in your hot little hands. The SugarPea design team has created fabulous projects to inspire you with even MORE creative possibilities featuring our newest and hottest products!

Let's get on with it, shall we? For this hop, I played with Geo Floral CoverPlate SugarCut and made a couple colorful cards.

One card has cool tone and one has warm tone. To start I used various distress & distress oxide inks to color the panels. Once that done, ran the panel & the coverplate through the dies machine & adhere the panels to the card base.

Because of the pattern and the colors, I feel like I don't need to add anything else. I am a CAS girl at heart, so I like to keep things minimal. Just add sentiment. The sentiment is from the Spring release Topiary Garden set. I just love the font combo on these sentiments.

I framed the sentiment so it doesn't just disappear on the card. Again, I simply colored a piece of cardstock in the color that match the background and use that as my frame. I actually almost  tempted to add some liquid enamel to the background, but then I don't want to end up messing the card. Sometime you just have to know when to stop, right? ;)

Now, giveaway time! How would you like to WIN a $20 gift certificate to spend on SugarPea Designs store? Please visit with each of our design team members listed below and leave a comment for your chance to win! The winner will be announced on Friday, July 20th.

Well, that's all from me today peeps. Thank you for stopping by here, enjoy the hop & may your weekend starts off wonderfully. Cheers...

Pinkfresh Studio Lined Floral Hello

Hi peeps. Popping in for a quick post to share this card that I made using Pinkfresh Studio Lined Floral Background stamp.

Just a heads up, I am sharing more than cards there. I don't separate between personal and cards, so you will see my pups & family pic as well. :)

Well, as I said short one. Cheers...

So, let's get on with today's project, shall we? Today we're introducing BoHo Feathers, Dare To Dream, Feathers die and  Dreams Word die.

I love the design of the feathers on BoHo Feathers set. It looks pretty and delicate.

I stamped and heat embossed the feathers on a piece of watercolor cardstock and  then went to town & add the watercolor rainbow to the panel. For the sentiment, I stamped and heat embossed the sentiment on a strip of vellum and wrapped it around the panel. Then, I adhere the panel to the card base.

Since I love bling, I just had to add some rhinestone sequins for finishing touches.

How would you like to win BoHo Feathers? Simply leave a comment on SugarPea Designs blog to enter and winner will be announced on SPD blog on Sunday, June 17, 2018.

SugarPea Designs Summer Release: Day 2

Hi peeps, welcome to Day 2 of our Summer Product Release! We are sharing Sweet Peek for the 15 NEW products that will be available for purchase starting this Friday, June 15th at 6 PM EST in the SPD Store.

Today, we are introducing Geometric Floral Coverplate, Stuck On You Stamp & Dies set. I chose to focus on the Geometric Floral Coverplate set and made this card below.

I love the way this card turned out, but oh my goodness!! The whole time doing it part of me was like what was I thinking?? Took me forever to in lay the cut out pieces. So, I first die color a white cardstock panel with some oxide distress ink. Once that done, I ran it through the die cut machine and put that aside. Next, I ran a black cardstock through.

I adhere the black cut out to the card base and then one by one pick up the cut out color parts and laid it inside the black frame one by one. Took me about half a day. Hah! Luckily, I was doing this during a crafting day with friends, so at least I get to chat while working on this. The thanks die is from previous release.

Here's a peek at all the sets that being introduced today.

SugarPea Designs 2018 Summer Product Release: Day 1

Hi everyone and welcome to day 1 of SugarPea Designs summer release. We hope you’ll join us over the next 5 days as the SugarPea Designers and I share Sweet Peeks for the 15 NEW products that will be available for purchase starting this Friday, June 15th at 6 PM EST in the SPD Store.

Today we are introducing the adorable Llama Just Say stamp & dies set.  Let me just say this release got me squealing with delight. I love llama and so excited when I saw this cute set.

I cut the panel using Postage Stamp Coverplate and after I cut it, without removing the dies, I added the green and blue shadow. Once that done, I stamped the succulent directly on the panel and color it. Then I work on the llama. Stamp, color, die cut it and adhere it to the panel with pop dots. Added the sentiment. Adhere the panel to the card base and finished by adding some enamel dew drops.

I have a friend in mine to whom I want to send this card to. I hope she'll like it. Here's a look at the set.
