Lilly's Rainbow

Just wanted to share a few cards I made with this new set Lilly's Rainbow by Mabelle R.O. for The Angel Company.  Isn't she cute!?   I made my background using Background Soup, and the rainbow is popped up with foam tape. This is a card that made it into the new Angel Company catalog! If you don't have a catalog yet, and would like to get one, please contact me!

 

For this card I wanted to focus on the beautiful sentiment in this set, so I tried for a clean and simple look, this is as clean and simple as I am able to do!

Paired with an everyday sentiment, still adorable! And yes, I used those polka dots again! I have polka dot issues, they are happy and fun, they work with almost everything, and I love them!

I hope that you are having a wonderful day!! I appreciate you stopping by!

Christmas in July!!

How about some awesome ideas for Christmas! All this week over on the Savvy Projects blog, we will be focusing on ideas and projects for the holiday season!  So will I, each day I will have a new project featured here to (hopefully) inspire you to get a head start on your holiday projects! I know it is only July, and it's like 100 degrees out side, but if we get a head start our projects could be done and we could enjoy the Christmas season without a crafting frenzy at the last minute. What!? I can't be the only one who does that... am I??

I took up a challenge by another Angel to use papers that were not "Christmas" paper, to create for Christmas. We have so many beautiful paper collections to choose from at The Angel Company that it really wasn't hard to do. I found that there is at least one sheet in most of our "Soar with it Collections" (SWIC) that could work for Christmas projects. And often there were two or more sheets that would work!!
The first card (above), was created using the Maggie SWIC and Amberly card stock collection., This light blue paper from Maggie, looks so cool and wintery to me. I tried for a "traditional" Christmas look for these cards today. I will share some nontraditional color combos later in the week.

 

This next card couldn't be more traditional in color, but this paper is from Mia's Cottage SWIC and card stock collection, paired with scarlet card stock! Polka dots are from Background Soup and embossed in white. This sentiment was computer generated, sorry,  I just wanted that saying so badly for this card, and couldn't let it go. :) 

Along with my papers, I also used stamps on both cards that are not from Christmas sets. The first card used the sweet angel from Fairytale Fun, but the sentiment is from Hung on a Tree, a Christmas set. This second card used Mice Day.

I will be adding something here everyday this week, lots of ideas for Christmas I just couldn't stop! I hope that you will stop in again . Also please be sure to check out the Savvy Projects blog all week for Christmas in July and see something new each day to inspire you!!

Thanks for stopping by, and have a delightful day!! :)

You Make February Fabulous-No Place Like Gnome

Today I am the Guest Designer over on The Savvy Projects Blog, for "You Make February Fabulous!" I hope that you will check it out HERE ! The stamp set that I chose to work with is "No Place Like Gnome". I chose this set because I have not seen very much created using this set.  It is a set I love, and I think has so many possibilities...

        These are just a couple of the cards I created for today. All the details are on the Savvy Projects Blog!                      
                             Have a wonderful day, and a great weekend! Thanks for stopping by!
