Hippie Bus card

Welcome, today I have a super cute and easy card.  I went on a weekend trip not too long ago that inspired this card.  Who would have thought a trip to Gatlinburg would be the most exciting thing since January?  I began with a 12x12 piece of paper.  I just adored this image in the bottom corner of the paper so I cut it down to fit on the A2 card.  I then used a leftover die negative as the frame.  I love the Our Daily Bread Designs Double Stitched Rectangle dies because of the beautiful stitched negative frames. I created another card recently using the lovely stitched negatives.


I added gems on the headlights.  I punched out some flowers from coordinating papers.  I clustered them in the corner accented with more gems.  I love how it turned out.


Ingredients:
Our Daily Bread Designs double stitched rectangle die
patterned paper
black card stock
circle punch and flower punch
gems

Cricut Peace Love Llamas~ Bitten by the Bug 2's Cute Critter Challenge

Good morning and welcome to the latest Bitten by the Bug 2 challenge~Cute Critters open until August 3.  I think this adorable llama qualifies as cute, how about you?  


This POW glitter paper is so pretty and cuts like butter in the Cricut machine. Even on the very thin letters and ear outlines.  I like to finish off most of my cuts with chalk to hide the white edges as I did here.


Ingredients:
DCWV Tie Dye Stack
POW glitter paper
Quick Quotes Powderpuff chalking ink Midnight Confessions
misc card stock

Unity Willow Girl-Peace Out card

I was able to play a little in my studio this weekend.  I checked out some sketches and played along.  First up is this simple and versatile one.  I have the DCWV Tie Dyed stack on my desk and this was the perfect use of scraps from some other cards I created.


Here is the sketch:


I splashed some shimmer mist on the background to add another element.  Distress Oxide Spiced Marmalade matched the orange in the peace symbols perfectly.


Ingredients:
DCWV Tie Dyed stack
Unity Willow Girl sentiment

I made a couple of cards for you today with some of my awesome stash!

When I saw this die and stamp set from Local King Rubber at Stampaway last year, I fell in LOVE!  The bus has to be my favorite die.  I don't get to use it as much as some labels and shapes but I jump at any opportunity to use this one, it is soooo cute!


You can't tell on the first picture so I took one at an angle...the mirrored "glass" in my windows.  Looking at these pics after the fact, I should have backed the peace signs with the same paper, wouldn't that have been cool?

Little Yellow Bicycle Escape
Local King Rubber Summer Vacation stamp and die set
Distress Marmalade ink
Recollections Vintage Green ink
Stampin Up Summer Sun
White card stock
brushed silver card stock
