Injoy Stampin Handmade Cards/Mini Albums

‘Cherish’ Fairy Belle Mini Album

Hi Everyone, hope you’re having a fabulous Saturday.  I’ve been playing in my craft room, so I’ve sure been having a lot of fun.  I finished this mini album last night and my craft room was a wreck!  I create a project and have to get everything out it seems.  Well, I have an OCD habit of each time that I finish a project, I have to clean my desk, put everything away and vaccum the floor before I attempt my next project.  There’s just something about starting off with a clean “slate” that helps get my creativity going.

I couldn’t wait to cut into this brand new Prima Fairy Belle paper, I absolutely love it.  Talk about girly!  Butterflies, lace, chandeliers and fairies.  Too pretty!

Here’s the mini album that I created.

Feel free to click on any of the photos to enlarge…

The album measures 7 1/2″ x 6″ x 1 3/4 inches so it is a nice manageable size.  All of the “flap” parts are inserts and pull out.  Each one is a photo mat and is covered with papers from the collection.  I’ve added a stamped journaling spot to the back of each insert.  I’ll post the video below so you can take a better look.

The gorgeous flowers on the cover are all from Wild Orchid Crafts.

If you have any questions, please let me know.  Otherwise, thanks so much for stopping by today.  I appreciate you. xx

Sweet Wee Suzy…

Hey there, and a very happy Thursday to you!  I wanted to share a card that I created this past weekend that I think is just adorable.  I’m so smitten with the Wee stamps that are available through the IBFS website.  This little sweetie is Wee Suzy.  She is just precious!

I decided to create an easel card; which measures 5 1/2″ x 5 1/2″.  So much fun to make and I really like the rich rose tones.

This card is available for sale in my store HERE. 

Here are some more photos of different detail views.  You can click on each to enlarge.

A Keepsake Wedding Mini Album

Hi Everyone,  I’ve been working on this mini album for the past week or so and today, I finished it!  =)  That’s always a good feeling.  I’m really happy with how it came together.  Especially since monochromatic colors are not an easy color scheme for me to use.    It was a lot of fun, though.

Please be sure and click on each of the photos to enlarge…

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!  Are you wearing any green?  If not you may end up with a pinch! It’s an absolutely gorgeous day here in Michigan with a sunny 76 degrees and I am absolutely LOVING it!  Going for a long walk with my hubby later this evening.  I had to share this cute little card with you in hopes that it brightens your day.

I was playing with my Cricut Expression 2 and my Gypsy.  I always enjoy using them to create.  I just got the 3 Birds on Parade Cricut Cartridge so wanted to use that as well.  This princess bird can be found on page 37 and I cut it out at 3.5″ and I cut the sentiment at 1.5″.  It is on page 28 in the manual. The stamp for the face is a Peachy Keen stamp called Critter Faces and I added a bit of white gel pen for the white of her little eyes.

I added an Action Wobble to the bird and boy does she twirl!  LOVE those things!  I have them back in stock in my store HERE.

I recently purchased paper called Paper Layerz so that I could see if I liked it.  Although I think it’s rather pricey, it did cut beautifully.  Not overly fond of each of the color combinations in it, but this one is pretty cute.  All of the layers for this card came from the one sheet of paper.  Let me know what you think, I’d love to have your opinion.

Well, I’m off to get supper ready and then put my walking shoes on.  It’s too nice of a day to be in the house. =)  Enjoy your day and your weekend! xx

Tea Party Box w/Trims

Hello Everyone and a very happy Saturday to each of you.  I’m so pleased to share a lovely, handmade cake box with you that I’ve made.  The box is made of sturdy card stock, but what I really would like to share is the lovely key embellishment that adorns the top.  I’ve made it using Creative Paperclay that I set in a mold by Articus Studio.

I used the Tie the Knot Cricut Cartridge to cut out the box using the “Fit to page” feature.  I believe it cut it out at 10.30 inches.  The base is Kraft cardstock from Hobby Lobby and the paper line that I used is Butterfly Garden by Pink Paislee; which is one of my favorites.

I’ve added lots of Wild Orchid Crafts flowers and some Prima pearls, lace from my store and ribbons I’ve had in my stash.

This box is available for purchase HERE.

I’ve added 4 yards of really pretty rosette ribbons on the inside as well as some surprises.

Okay, back to the Creative Paperclay key.  I painted it and then applied some Rub ‘n Buff.  This is the same technique that I shared last month in my post if you’d like to refer back to the tutorial.  You can do so many things to create custom embellishments using Creative Paperclay.  The possibilities are truly endless.  I love this wonderful, non-toxic, bio-degradeable, all natural, air dry clay!

 

Thanks so much for stopping by today.  I always appreciate it.  Hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend! xx
