I love making these cards!

Posted on April 13, 2021April 13, 2021

What can I say, I love making these cards. They really do come together fast. I couldn’t help but share another card using the new die that I got.

Again, the hardest part of making this whole card was picking out the paper to use with it. Once I had all the pieces cut, using the die and my gemini jr, it went together fast. As you know from some previous cards that I made that I love this color combination. I did no actual stamping on this card, it was all made by die cuts! When you open this card the circle flips over and you can see the back of the circle.

I hope you enjoyed these cards as much as I enjoyed making them. If you want to purchase them they are up on my Etsy site, https://www.etsy.com/shop/MillieMaeGreetings?ref=seller-platform-mcnav

Make sure to check out the links at the right for a little retail therapy! 😊 You never know what you will find to inspire your next card. I wanted to give you a sneak peek at what is coming up. I found a new to me stamp company called The Ink Road stamps. They have a bunch a snarky, sassy stamp sets. While some of them are a little too snarky for me, I was able to find a set that works perfectly! Here is what the set looks like, and I will show you tomorrow or Thursday the cards that I made using this set! Until then, have a great day and go do something crafty!

Paper Hugs!

Clean and Simple Boutique Cards
This class had so many fun and inspiring ideas. I never thought about adding my own lines to the images, but it was a fun way to add some different detail to my card. For this card I used the solid stamp to stamp the image and then with a very fine black felt tip […]

Beyond Basic Backgrounds
Altenew sure has some amazing classes and I really enjoyed this one! I love how these classes really get me out of my comfort zone. It makes me look at stamps differently. When I see a stamp set, I see it being the main star of the card, the focal point. This class taught me […]
Beautiful Details
In this class, I learned all about adding beautiful details to the card. It had a lot to do with coloring. I am by no means an expert at coloring. I learned a lot in the class, and it is going to take lots of practice to fine tune my skills. But with the card […]
Just Because
My second Altenew Academy class was called All about layering 2. Ok, so this is getting easier to do. I knew it would, it was just going to take some practice. I was lucky enough to go to Altenew’s website and purchase another fun set to work with. I love how my collection is growing! […]
Layering stamps to create a beautiful flower card
This was my first class with Altenew Academy. It is all about learning to layer stamps to create a beautiful flower. It was a challenge for me as I have never worked with these kinds of stamps. I also didn’t have any of these stamps in my collection because I have always been intimated by […]

Thank you for being so sweet
We recently took a little quick trip to MN. We needed someone to take care of our cats while we were gone. Our sweet neighbor was kind enough to take care of them. I wanted to give her a little thank you card and gift for all that see did while we were gone. Here […]
