Summer Happiness birthday

I saw a sketch using four rectangles and was inspired by Lisa Bowden to make this card.  It's a very simple sketch that is very easy to make quick and easy cards with.  I decided to use the Summer Happiness bundle.  I made two cards, each with a different sentiment but using the same bundle and same layout.  To watch the video tutorial over on my YouTube channel, click this direct link.  I hope you will give this layout a try!  You will find all the supplies I've used today in my online store.  Click on the shopping cart to the right or the direct page links at the bottom of this post.  New items have been added to the last chance category with some being discounted.  Be sure to check those out before you check out.  Thanks in advance.

Sunset Coast quick and easy fun fold

Hello and welcome back to my blog!  Thanks so much for taking time from your busy day to spend a little with me.  I appreciate it so much!

For my card today I wanted to make a fun fold that would be quick and easy to put together.  I pulled out the Scenic Coast designer series paper (DSP), along with the Sunset Coast bundle.  I knew I wanted to use most of the 6" x 6" paper as it's so gorgeous.  While I was looking at cardstock, I saw a piece I had cut for another project that was 3 1/8" x 8 1/2" and already folded at 4 1/4".  That helped me decide on this particular fold, using up a piece I had prepared already.  I then figures out how I wanted to cut my DSP and started from there.  This card is the result and I think it turned out beautifully!  Don't you agree?

 For my card today, I've chosen to make a card featuring four of the images (one for each season) from the Choose Happy stamp set I've been featuring for the past week.  This stamp set has an image for many occasions, and I hope, if you've been following along all week, I've given you some insight into its versatility.  This little set would be great for planners, scrapbook pages, cards, & treat packaging.  It would also be great for a teacher!  To see how I've put this card together, you can watch the replay here on YouTube.

Adorable Owls Rays of Light

 Today’s card was the first card I envisioned when I saw this set.  I love how it turned out and can be used for any occasion just by changing the sentiment and using different owl from the set.  It features the adorable owls, along with Rays of Light and Framed Florets.  The color pallet, along with the images make for very timing card in my opinion.  To see how I put this card together, watch the video replay over on my YouTube channel HERE:
