Masculine Birthday Cards

 I decided that since I've been making all these pretty cards which are more for women that I should make some more masculine cards, for the men in our lives. I used papers from Stamperia's "Sea Land" paper collection. I've had these papers for a few years now and have almost used them all up. I love these papers so much I went on Amazon last night to see if I might be able to find another of these paper pads. I was so happy to find them! I was able to get them for $22.89 Canadian and with my Prime Membership I got free delivery. I love Amazon! LOL

For this first card I distressed and layered the papers. For the centre section I cut out part of one of the papers that had this sailboat on it and then found another piece of the same paper and just cut out the sailboat and added some pop dots to it and put it on top of the other sailboat for a 3D look. I added eyelets to the 4 corners and added some twine through the eyelets. I then cut out some of the rope from the papers and added pop dots it and put that on the top of the card and then printed the sentiment out on my computer. Here's the finished card.

For this second card I distressed and layered all the papers. I cut out these seagulls from one of the papers for the top layer. I added some twine to the left side of this top layer and added a couple of actual real starfish to the top right corner of the card. I printed the sentiment out on my computer.

Mothers Day Cards

 A few more Mothers Day cards using the 8"x8" pad from Craft O'Clocks "Spring Charm" paper collection. This first card is 4¾"x6¾". I've layered and distressed the background papers. I've fussy cut a couple of flower bouquets from the paper and added one to the top left corner of the card and the other one to the bottom right corner and popped them up with pop dots. I printed the sentiment out on my computer.

 These next two cards are 4¼"x5½". I layered and distressed the background papers and fussy cut some flower bouquets from the papers and added them to the front of the cards popped up with pop dots. I also printed the sentiments out on  my computer.

Craft O'Clock Paper Collection

I bought these pretty 8"x8" papers from Craft O'Clock's paper collection "Spring Charm" and they're perfect for making cards. I have been busy doing lots of fussy cutting of these papers from their "Extras Set". I love it when these paper companies add these sets from the paper collection specially for fussy cutting. I've made a few cards with this collection.

 These first two cards are 4¾" x 6¾". I've used the Craft O'Clock's paper collection."Spring Charm". For the first one I took a duplicate piece of paper and fussy cut some of the flowers for the top and lower bottom right corner and popped them up with pop dots for that 3D look. I then used the "Fairy Chain" stamp from Lavinia. I printed the sentiment out on my computer.

For this second card I layered the papers as in the other one above and then stamped them with Lavinia's "Meadow Mushroom" and "Fairies" stamps. I added another fussy cut flower bouquet to the bottom left corner of the card and printed out the sentiment on my computer.

This third card is 4¼" x 5½". I layered the papers as I did above but then added a fussy cut flower bouquet to the top left corner and bottom right corner and popped them up with pop dots for the 3d look. I also printed the sentiment out on my computer.

Christmas Layouts

 I have so much pretty Christmas paper this year but no one seems to have taken any Christmas photos this year for some reason. I'm still waiting for our one daughter to send us some Christmas photos of our youngest grandchildren, 8 and 5. So hopefully I'll have some more to post soon.

This first layout is a photo taken at our friends place on Christmas Eve. Every Christmas Eve they have a get together with all our friends, so that we can all have a great visit before all of the crazy family Christmas stuff starts to happen, lol. I used Craft O'clock's "Christmas Time" paper collection. This piece was just so pretty I didn't really want to cover this up with too much other things. What I did was take another piece of the same background paper and fussy cut out the floral groupings and added some pop dots to them and popped them up over the same section's of the background paper.I added some pretty lace and a wooden and gold puffy letters for the title. The only other thing I added was a fussy cut basket with candy cane. I think it came out quite pretty with minimal pieces added to it.

This next layout is a photo of my grandson and his boyfriend in their Christmas pyjamas. The paper I used is from Scrap Boys "Hello Winter" collection. These papers, like the ones I used in the previous layout, are so pretty so I didn't want to cover them up with other scrapping items. I took another piece of the same paper and fussy cut out the floral group from the top of the paper and popped them up with pop dots on top of the other background paper. I fussy cut one of the deer out and some of the flowers and popped them up with pop dots. I added the wooden "Memories" title and called it done.

 

So with minimal scrapping goodies on these two layouts because the papers are so pretty you didn't need a lot of stuff on them to make them look great! Thanks for looking and I'd love to hear your comments on these layouts!

Back to Blogging

 Well I haven't been keeping my blog up to date at all, like 2 years! I know, slap my wrist! I really have no idea why I wasn't blogging, I think I've just been lazy. I guess I wasn't really getting any visitors commenting on my posts so I thought why am I bothering? I can't expect people to visit unless I start promoting myself, soooo let's see what I can do to change this!

So I've been busy making "Never Ending" cards lately. I kind of got addicted to making them. I'm pretty sure all of my Facebook friends were getting tired of seeing all of my posts and videos to how them off, lol. I found a video on You Tube by a talented lady, Linda Bedinger. You'll find it here: Never Ending Cards Here are a few of these cards and videos to show how they open.

 

You can see the rest of my "Never Ending" cards on my website here: Scrappers Heaven or in my Etsy Shop here: Etsy Shop ScrappingPassion

If you're a crafter be sure to check out Linda Bedingers You Tube page and try out these cards yourself. I'd love to hear any comments you have on these cards. TFL!
