Glitter makes me Happy...

These little notecards were SO easy to make.  I used American Crafts POW! Glitter Paper and it cuts like butter in the eCraft and no glittery mess afterwards.  I seriously did not find one grain of loose glitter.  LOVE IT!  The cuts are from the eCraft Office Essentials SD card and are photo corners, but when put together, they make a really cool frame.  There are a lot of really pretty photo corners on this card.  I just adhered them on a sqaure piece of white cardstock and stamped my sentiment in the middle and then used dimensional adhesive to attach it to the card base.

Have a great day, and in case I'm not back here this weekend, Happy 4th of July to all my US friends!

How Many eCraft Cuts Can I Get on a Single Card?

Well for a standard A2 sized card, I got a total of 5!  The eCraft Office Essentials SD card designed by Laina Lamb is so versatile.  There are a lot of things on this card that can be used for a wide variety of occasions.

On this card, I cut 2 of the Notebook Page with the round holes (there is also a square hole option) out of 2 coordinating patterned papers from the Papertrey Ink Road Trip pack.  I also cut out the Rolodex card from some vintage bookprint.  Then I cut out the bookplate and the "Just a Note" sentiment.  I may have gotten a bit carried away with this card, but the papers were so pretty and believe it or not, there were some other cuts that I made that got eliminated from this card.

Tomorrow I will be showing you a non-sporty card made from the Sports Life card.

You've Got Mail!

Well when I saw some of the mail themed images on the eCraft Office Essentials SD card designed by Laina Lamb, I just had to use them.  It also didn't hurt that I had the Papertrey Ink Postmarks stamp set and Postmarks Patterned Paper that would go perfectly with these cuts!

The SD card has the letter outline shape and the stamp shape that I used in this card.  For the letter, I just cut a piece of cream cardstock to back it so I could add some stamps on top of it.  This card went together super fast, the hardest part was figuring out which stamps to pair up with these cuts. 

Tomorrow I will have another sporty card to share with you!

Don't you just love it when inspiration hits you like a brick?  That is exactly what happened with me when I read the saying that I used on this card!  Every now and then, when someone in my life is going through a difficult time, I like to give them a card to let them know that I care and hopefully lift them up a bit.  I think that this saying is just perfect for such an occasion.

Since I did not make this for anyone in paticular, I wanted to use a neutral color palette so that it can be given to a man or a woman when it is needed.  The saying of course just shouted "Nautical Theme!!!", so I turned to the eCraft Sports Life SD card and found the anchor and the wheel (along with several other nautical type cuts) and then I paired it up with this wonderful frame from Laina Lamb's Office Essentials SD card.  There is a whole category for frames on the card!  The wheel was stamped with Papertrey Ink's Woodgrain stamp set, and the background was impressed with the coordinating Impression Plate.  A little jute twine completed the look!
