Celebrating Weddings!



It's summer time and it's the time when when many tie the knot.  At Cardz TV we're celebrating weddings.  During this challenge please share your wedding designs making sure to use hearts, doves, love birds or wedding bells. Join us @ Cardz TV to enter our wedding challenge.

*Note* - There is a challenge prize for the winner chosen by random.org; an AWESOME set of stamps by Cardz TV .


Here is my design:








For this challenge I made a fun, clean, and simple wedding card.  I started with several row of hearts in white.  I placed them on my card then I raised up giving them dimension.  On the last row I placed a shiny set of two additional red hearts on top of the original row of white hearts; again I raised these to give additional dimension.  I finished with using my "LOVE" sentiment and some button hearts.

On the inside of my card I placed two of the shiny red hearts in the bottom right corner and used my "Congratulations on your Wedding" sentiment. 



I used both the Encouraging Thoughts & the Congratulations stamp set from Cardz TV.

Stamping and Celebrating Father's Day!



We're celebrating Father's during this challenge as "Father's Day" is right around the corner!  We'd love for you to help us honor Dad's during our challenge. Join us at CardzTV  and enter your Dad cards!


*Note-*  There is a challenge prize for the winner chosen by random.org; an awesome set of stamps by Cardz TV!


Here is my design:





I'm excited to share my card with you.  My teens plan on using this card for my husband (shh!).  I hope to make two more for my dad and grandfather too!

We all know guy cards can be harder to sit down and make then others.  This idea is from one of my older stamping catalogs.  I didn't have all the tools they suggested to make it with, but I improvised and was able to do it.  I worked and came up with the right size of banners for the bow ties, when I put them together I cut a small piece off the end right before applying the button.

I also don't have a tool guide to do paper piecing so again I improvised.  I asked my husband to purchase a foam piece for me.  He came home with a foam rug and cut into a smaller piece (I had told him mouse pads are expensive).  It worked out wonderful and I was able to space it with my ruler perfectly, I don't think I will buy anything else (i.e- the tools). 

I finished the card off with applying my sentiment "Happy Father's Day" on the banner.  We can't wait to give him our card!! 

I used the "You're the Man" stamp set from Cardz TV.
