Hi Friends,

This is my first card using TLC Designs products. I have chosen the "See You In the Center" interactive die set along with numerous dies, stamps, and digital papers. Here is a supply list.

LDRS Creative ~ Christmas Friends

 

Hello Creative Friends,

Today I am sharing an adorable new stamp from the LDRS Creative Polkadoodles line, it is named  "Christmas Friends". These stamps are such sweet little girls to color, and this one has some of her winter friends with her.

I have created a fun shaped card using the Polkadoodles Die Set named "Woodland Foliage Frames" I love how delicate this layering set is.

I love the new "Folded Winter Banner" die set. This new die set comes in two sizes. I have used the smaller size here in my project. I used the die to cut out a portion of the "Mackenzie Christmas 6x6" Paper" to create my coordinating sentiment.

Sweet Treats!!! ~ Happy Birthday Elijah!

Hello Fellow Crafters,

I am excited to share this card with all of you today. I actually made two different cards using this stamp set. One for LDRS Creative showcasing their amazing stamps & dies. The second card is a fun birthday card my grandson, Elijah, who just turned 1 year old this past Wednesday so these cards were inspired by him!!!!

With this card design I used the adorable treat stamps from the Sweet Treats stamp set and created my own designer paper. Once I stamped them with our amazing Raven Hybrid Black ink I colored them using alcohol markers. Super fun background!

For the sentiment I used a combination of the Sweet Treat Stamp Set and the Scalloped Circle Frame Set creating a little dimension by adding the hand cut ice cream cone to the center with some foam tape. It really turned out cute. 

HAPPY 1st BIRTHDAY ELIJAH!!!!! 

And to my amazing daughter, Nicholette, who has become an amazing mother. I love you both beyond words!!!

LDRS Creative ~ A View for all Seasons & A Sneek Peek at our New Furr Babies.

Hello my crafty friends! I have a fun new project to share with you today.  This outdoor scene was so much fun to make.

LDRS Creative Supplies Used:

A View for all Seasons Stamp Set

Friends Stamp Set

Friends Die Set

In the Grass Die Set

Coming Up Daisies Stencil

Hybrid Inks in Ice Tea, Kiss Me Red, Swimming Hole, Key Lime, Olive Branch
I had a lot of fun creating this scene. The background along with the fence are both stenciled using the Coming Up Daisies stencil. I love how the stencil can be used in multiple ways. I stamped and colored all the individual pieces from the A View For All Seasons Stamp set then fussy cut them and glued the window and shutters to the background paper. Then I popped up the awning, bird, and window box. Lastly I wanted to add people to my scene so I went through my awesome LDRS Creative stash and decided that our "Friends" stamp and die set were perfect for this. 

 

Check out our two new kittens. This is Callie and Lily. I have colored the kitty on my project as a calico to match my little new babies.

 

Over all I really am pleased with this one. I hope you have had a blessed day.  Melanie
