Turtle-y Grateful For You all year

For my card today, I've made a card that is both quick and easy.  It has very little stamping and uses mostly Designer Series Paper for the decorations.  When I was making it, I was thinking that it could be a Father's Day card, but for those who don't have father's, it could be for any BBQ chef in your life.  To see how easy it is to put together, be sure to watch the video replay over on my YouTube channel. 



Measurements and Supplies: 
Textured Notes dies 165555
Around It All dies 164725
Turtle-y Cute Designer Series Paper, 4 x 5 1/4" approx. & images fussy cut
Basic White cardstock for smaller circle & sentiment 
Thick Basic White cardstock, 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", scored in center at 4 1/4" for card base
Darling Duckling cardstock, 1" x 4 1/2"
Shades of Green Hexagons 165233
Ink Pads: Darling Duckling, Memento Tuxedo Black
Blending Brushes 160518

I hope you have enjoyed seeing how quick and easy this card is and doesn't take all that many supplies.  Until next time; be happy, good health to you and happy stamping!

Turtle-y Awesome June birthday card

This week I am playing with the Turtle-y Cute suite of products.  I didn't want to make just any birthday card though, I wanted to make it specific to the recipient because that makes it more personal.  So, what better bundle to use than Year of Flowers?  I found the flowers in the stamp set to coordinate perfectly with the turtles as if they were meant to be.  To see how I've put this card together, be sure to head on over to my YouTube channel where you can watch the video replay.

 For my card today, I was thinking of a conversation I had with my dad last Sunday.  He was telling me how much he loved having cookies with his coffee in the morning.  I thought this card would make a good Father's Day card for him along with a batch of homemade chocolate chip cookies.  To see how I've put it together, be sure to watch the video tutorial over on my YouTube channel.
