Kaisercraft Forget Me Not (Mother's Day) cards

I had already made a wonderful Mother's Day card for my 94 yr old Mother In Law but decided to make another that was more frilly and embellished that she would cherish. The second card was for her twin who she would be spending the day with. They love each other so much and fly back and forth between their 2 houses (Indiana and South Florida) and are in such great health!! Praise God!
So here are the details: I chose a die that is 5x5 and cut twice, for the background paper as well as the eyelet frame. I also cut a cream piece to use to stamp the inside sentiment. Using Kaisercraft Forget Me Not collection, I made these beautiful Mother's Day cards and embellished with seam binding and doilies from my stash for the 2nd one. The seam binding is real vintage and matched perfectly, and the bling is Want2Scrap bracket bling. The sticker had powder applied from EK Success powder tool, to de-stick and then Scrapbook Adhesive pop dots applied to pop it up. The "love" sticker is from the Kaisercraft sticker sheet, and the only other tool was my Platinum 6 die cutting tool and Tool N One from Spellbinders.
   Also, I was at a NSD crop and had forgotten my Mother's Day sentiments and was lent an amazing Stampin' Up Mother's Day set by my friend. That's what I love about scrapbooking!! If I have something you need, it is yours and visa versa! And we talk and play all day together. What fun!! Great to have friends like that!
Happy Mother's Day!

Stampendous Flossing is a Must! Card

I am in love with this sweet image that someone in the past has given me. I don't have the stamp but could use my Copic Sketch markers with the image due to the heavy cardstock it was stamped on. Here's what I used to make the card:
Stampendous Flossy Easter image
Cardstock by Bazill Basics Paper
My Minds Eye 6x6 papers
Spellbinders Platinum 6 die cut machine
Spellbinders Tallulah die
Spellbinders Tool 'n One
Jillian Vance Pierced Rectangles
Copic Sketch Markers: Y11, Y13, Y15, B0000, B000, B02, YG11, YG13, R00 R20, RV21, E18, E21, E33, E37, E53, YR24.
3-D Foam Mounting Squares by Scrapbook Adhesives
Tombow Mono Liquid Glue
Darice Rhinestones on the frame

To recreate this card:
Stamp the image onto a #110 lb piece of Neenah Bright White cardstock
Use Memento Tuxedo Black ink
Misti stamping tool makes it easier to get a crisp image
Begin to color the image using the Copic markers.
Die cut the image with the Pierced Rectangles
Die cut a fancy frame like this Spellbinders Tallulah die, and use the Spellbinders Tool 'n One to get all the dots out.
Choose a matching cardstock for the card base, frame and then patterned paper to coordinate with the color combo.
Add to the card as seen using adhesives to glue down and pop up respectively.
Add a seam binding bow, tied with triple loops.

Happy 23rd Birthday Julie Nutting Card

                 

                                       
Am way ahead of someone's birthday, but the gift has already been given and am going to send this on to her anyway!!! LOVE lavishing gifts and especially since she is making kind of expensive purchases. Well anyway, am so excited that this is @KathyRac's month of #thedailymarker30day challenge and I am posting every day on my Instagram account. Go here under @jordanbev5 and please follow me. If you aren't on yet...I highly recommend that you get an IG account of your own due to the flood of inspiration at your fingertips and so much faster to post and read and even watch short videos!! But please make sure to tell me YOUR account so I can follow you and see your pictures too!
 The background paper is in black and white with words for Birthday cheer, like Hip Hip Hooray and Happy Birthday from Echo Park's Party Time in a 6x6 pad. The bottom sheet of multicolored candles is also from the same. The beautiful frilly frame is designed by Becca Feeken from Amazing Paper Grace's Chantilly Paper Lace Collection called Tallulah Frill from Spellbinders. Isn't it so pretty!!! I die cut it out of Lemon Yellow Bazzill Cardstock with my Platinum 6 machine. I hand cut the papers to size and then began arranging all the pieces. To help the numbers stand out, I die cut an oval from Spellbinders Pierced Ovals in the smallest size and then added the "23" from Thickers red foil set.
  The little girl is from Prima Marketing Inc, Julie Nutting stamp set appropriately called, Party Girl! I colored her with Sketch Copic Markers: R00, R20, R22, E000, E21, YR24, YR31, Y17, Y21. I fussy cut her out and added dimensional glue to the back to pop her up. The oval was also popped up as well. I still needed something more and grabbed some May Arts silk ribbon in lemon yellow. LOVE ribbons and have this in two shades of yellow!!! I really love seam binding and silk to add a soft billowy bow to a card don't you?
 A sentiment was added inside to finish it off and viola', a beautiful girly card to send out! I must say, I think I send her all Julie Nutting dolls for her birthdays because it seems so appropriate! The frillier the better too!!

Vienna Concert Layout

Again, using the Stuck?! Sketches other sketch, I used it for this double layout of the Concert we attended in Vienna on night. For this layout, I turned the sketch upside down and backwards. It allowed me to use the other sketch as well, somewhat for the right side layout. I turned it on it's side as you can see.

Photo story: We were treated to a Wiener Conzert of Mozart and Strass by the Wiener Residenzorchester. The Clarinet Concerto, which is also performed by the conductor, was a highlight of the program. The show leading up to it is delightfully amusing.

Supplies: Kaiser Craft Time Machine Gears and other papers that were still in my stash; Prima Marketing Tales of Me blossoms and other Prima flowers as well; vintage doily; seam binding; lace flowers; Queen and Co. music notes trim; Grey and brown cardstock.  I used my Cricut Explore to die cut the titles and used a combination of Blackletter cartridge and Old English Font with Bazzill Charcoal cardstock.
