Mid-Century Floral Mother's Day Card with Scrapbook.com

I just recently purchased the adorable Mid-Century Floral stamp set from Scrapbook.com and I love that you can layer the stamps to create these mod looking flowers. I used the Boho Smooth Paper Pack to inspire my colors and added embossing in copper. The Rose Gold Pops of Color add the final shimmer the card needed and it's ready to be used for Mother's Day!

To create the ombre look on the "mom" sentiment, I first distressed the bottom of the letters with Tattered Rose Distress Ink and then applied a little bit of Pops of Color to the bottom edge of the letters. Using my finger, I smudged the Pops of Color upwards and gave it a painted look.

You can see a close up photo of the letters on my Scrapbook.com Gallery, too! I hope you enjoyed this simple card layout and try it for yourself.

May the 4th Be With You! Sassielorian from The Sassy Club

Happy May the 4th Be With You Day! To celebrate this punny holiday, I have a shaker card featuring an interactive Sparkle Blends called Shoot For The Stars. It's one of my favorites because there are stars that glow in the dark! So fun, right?

To make this card, I used a fandom stamp set from the Star Wars universe, dies and fun patterned paper. But you can see each step of how this card came together by checking out my Instagram Swipetorial down below!

Don't forget you can get 10% off your Sparkle Blends order on Etsy using my code LAUREN10!

Go Wild! Roarsome Birthday Card with Heffy Doodle

The latest release from Heffy Doodle has been so fun to play and create with! I have a few more products from the new release I hadn't yet used, and I wanted to use them to create an interactive card. You can see my process of how this card came together down below on my YouTube channel! 

The flap is hiding a punny sentiment (my favorite) and the elements are all inspired from the latest Craft Roulette parameters. This week on Craft Roulette, the project had to be an alpha stamp card (stamped sentiment); use forest colors (lots of green!); elements that go well together (sentiment with the lion); and pre-printed (patterned paper). 

Do you think I met the requirements? What has been your favorite from the new Heffy Doodle release? 

I also have some fun news! I will talk a little more about this month on Color & Chat, but since I used Sparkle Blends on today's project, I wanted to let you know that I am not on the Doodles Paper Playground Design Team as a Social Media Manager! So make sure you like them on Facebook and follow them on Instagram, because I'll be posting for them and helping spread the word about Sparkle Blends! This also means I can offer my followers 10% off with the code LAUREN10. So, get following and get shopping. 😉

Mother's Day Platform Pop-Up Card with Lawn Fawn

It's hard to believe that April is coming to an end this week! I'm working on making a few Mother's Day cards for the moms in my life and I used a couple challenges to inspire this platform pop-up card. The current Lawn Fawnatics challenge was to create a scene and of course my weekly Craft Roulette parameters!

The parameters this week are a calendar card (I went with a holiday on the calendar of Mother's Day); colors are yellow + 2 (green, pink); bees; and plain circles (they're all over my card base because of the stencil). Do you think I met the requirements this week?

Lucky Duck Mother's Day Display Card with Time for Tea Designs

It's hard to believe that Easter is over and we're flying through Spring this year! Which means it's time to start thinking of Mother's Day Cards. (If that's a tough subject for you, you can skip this post/video. I totally get having a hard time around these types of holidays, so please do what's best for you. ♥)

This month for my Time for Tea Design's project, I wanted to use the awesome Die-namics Display Card die set to create a cute scene with my Lucky Ducks! I have my video down below for my channel where I go through adding ink to create dimension on die cuts and then my process for ading in the stamped images and cloud die cuts.

Can you spot the dragonfly and bee on the card? Does it look like they're flying? See how I made the card below!
