Pin-spired Cards

How was your Christmas? Did you get any crafty supplies from Santa? Maybe you will have a little extra time between now and New Year's Eve to spend some playing in your craft room? 

Over at Bella Blvd. we were given the following Pinterest photo to inspire our next assignment.

Isn't this image gorgeous? It's fun to replace letters in a word with a object or symbol...there's always a lot of room for creativity in doing so.

I was reminded of this Bella Blvd. phrase card that uses a peace symbol for the 'o' in joy.

With the many circles in the card I went with a circular theme using buttons and this background die cut.

What I love most about this card is the color combination! These are some seriously cheerful colors!

For my next card I decided to use the word noel from the photo and replace the 'o' with an ornament and snowflake combination.

Both cards were created with Bella Blvd's Christmas Countdown collection and have a completely different look and feel to them. I like that kind of versatility in a line!

The ornament and doily die cuts are from Top Dog Dies. They too are versatile...I've used them for so many projects this season.

To see the what my teammates created with this Pinterest photo, head over to Bella Blvd. to have a look.

Happy craftin'!

Summertime

I have a quick card share for you...a summertime creation I made a little while back. Ah how I already miss summer! Mostly the sunshine and longer days, both of which have been absent quite a bit this month.

I used Bella Blvd. products for this project...Designer Tape, Flags, Button Boutique and Daily Chevies paper.

How about that bicycle? Isn't it fun? That's a die cut shape from My Favorite Things. Oh how I adore dies! :)

Thanks for the get well wishes for Christopher yesterday. He's as good as new today and went to track-out camp this morning. I hope he has a great time with all the activities they have planned!

Have a terrific Tuesday! :)

Pinterest Inspired

Hello! Today over on the Bella Blvd. blog the design team is sharing projects inspired by this Pinterest photo. Currently chevron patterns can be seen everywhere and together with the teal and yellow...it's so fresh! Feels like home since our walls are the same yellow hue. 

For my first card I used a couple of the large chevron print papers from Bella Blvd's new Daily Chevies collection and paired those with some chevron die cuts.

My second card uses the same color scheme, chevrons and hearts. I love the way these cards go together.
