Gina Marie Designs Easter Egg Dies + Memory Box Bunnies!


I've got another super sweet die set by Gina Marie Designs for you today.  This is a 6 piece set, 1 egg shape and 5 overlay designs!  How much fun is that?!

I sponged a little cloud background in and stitched around the patterned paper for a little extra fun on the layers!


I couldn't resist perching some of these cute bunnies on top of the eggs from Memory Box.  I picked this stamp set, "Birthday Bunnies:" up over at my friend Vanessa's shop, Butterfly Reflections, Ink.

Gina Marie Designs Cross Stitched Square and MFT!

Hello everyone, it's Superbowl Sunday, woohoo!  Our hometeam the Panthers are taking on the Broncos and I'm looking forward to a good matchup, (hope it's not a blowout), and some fun commercials.  I'm not a Panthers fan, but I think I am rooting for them, because I live in the Carolinas. :)  And I like Cam Newton!

Today, I'm featuring another new and FAB-U-LOUS Cross Stitched Die Set, in the square shape, by Gina Marie Designs. I love these dies soooo much, I actual matted the image in triplicate, lol!  Isn't  that cool? So it's true, you can't have too much of a good thing!


The base layer was made using the new Latte cardstock by MFT and stamping the MFT PawPrints background stamp, then stitching a zig zag all around.  

Then I put my 3 layers of the stitched dies and added this cute pup in his dog house from the MFT set, You Make My Tail Wag.


Thank you for stopping by!  Please leave a comment and don't forget to check out all of Gina's fabulous stamps, dies and more!!


CYCI#106 - Sketch Challenge



Hi all!  I hope you're having a wonderful weekend thus far!  This week we have a sketch challenge going over at Can You Case It.  It's a fairly simple sketch, you can make it as elaborate as you like though.  Just use the sketch as your guide and see what you come up with!

As for me, I diecut these stitched stars by Memory Box out of yellow cs and sponged the edges in Dried Marigold Distress.  Then I stamped the stars with a splatter pattern and heat embossed in black and white.  Reminds me of salt and pepper stars!  I mounted them on a background I created using the MFT watercolor stripes stamp, then I also distressed the edges and drew in stitching using my white UniBall pen.  I finished the card off with this very delicate hello diecut by Penny Black and a few Swimming Pool Pearls by Doodlebug.

So there you have it, thank you for stopping by, I hope you will leave me a comment!
