Flower fold card; New cartridge coming soon!!!

Hello!!!! I've been working away on some projects since I'm on vacation! Here'a little card that I made that looks complicated but is so very easy! I love making 3D objects and items! I love to make interactive items that are quick and easy but beautiful just the same. Here is a little card that I made. Now from first glance, it's just a little 4 x 4 card. But once you untie it...

It opens up to reveal this beautiful card!!! This flower card was so easy to make! If you want me to create a tutorial for this in an upcoming issue of our E-Magazine A Homespun Affair, leave me a comment below and I will make sure that a tutorial will be available! All the paper used came from the Lucy paper pack from Close to My Heart. The stamp is a Tilda stamp from Magnolia stamps. I used my Copic Markers to color Tilda!

Color Challenge!

We have a color challenge going on right now! Using three colors pink, salmon and yellow, create a NEW project. It doesn't matter what you create! It's up to you...scrapbook layout, card, home decor, edible treats, etc.

I painted the frame pink with acrylic paint. After painting the frame, I added some pearls around the heart of the frame.  I used a salmon pink and canary yellow Copic Marker to color the flowers and the stamped butterflies. The flowers are from Prima. The butterflies come from the Pair a Phrase stamp set from Close to My Heart. I used ink in Tulip around the edges of the tags. The stamped sentiment is also from the Pair a Phrase set. I added some pearls to give it some more dimension.

Now it's up to you to create something!!! So get you crafting hat on and show me your best work!!! You have until June 25th to post your work! Winners will be announced in the July edition of A Homespun Affair!!! Good Luck!
