Candy Cane Seasons Greetings

I hope you're having a great day! Today I'm sharing a beautiful holiday card made with the Pretty Little Studio Candy Cane Collection!
This card starts with a patterned paper background that I topped with a floral arrangement. To create a focal point I layered light grid pattern paper over a piece of darker dotted paper. To help with placement I lay all the images on a piece of clear plastic the size of the card base.
To help with placement I lay all the images on a piece of clear plastic the size of the card base. This helps me decide what to put where before committing and adhering everything in place. Some of the images are adhered with adhesive foam tape, like the big red flower so I could tuck other elements underneath.

Some holiday elements are mixed in with the florals - a candy cane, string of beads and an ornament.
The finishing touch is always a sprinkle of gems for some sparkle and shine! I hope you're smiling!

Sprinkled With Love

Today I'm playing at A Cut Above where ANYTHING GOES but you better include some die cuts because that's the name of the game!
I need a pick me up today so I'm having a sugar rush of DONUTS from Pink & Main. The Box Of Donuts comes with the donuts and different ways to cut them so you can take a bite out of one. You can add drippy glaze, sprinkles, or pipe on some stripes!
The "box" covers an A2 size card base, and the die set has two different sentiments that fit across the bottom of the box to choose from. .."Donuts" and Bagels".
The stamped sentiment added along the top edge is from the Donut Forget stamp set. I added holographic paper under the donuts for some sparkle and shine!
Take a break and make it all!

Waffle Flower May Release & Giveaway!

It's official! The latest Waffle Flower Crafts release is available in the store NOW! We're calling this one Under the Sea for obvious reasons! LOL!
I've had fun making with this release with lots of different style backgrounds including alcohol, distress, and today's plain cardstock to create fun scenes!
I used the older "waves" die cuts to create a sea floor and then added lots of seaweed, shells, coral and fish in bright colors.

Next comes the Happy Submarine that is SO EASY TO ASSEMBLE! Just stack the pieces for a layered look.
The finishing touch is a school of fish with silly eyes and some clear enamel dot bubbles.

I'm linking up to Dragonfly Dreams where they want you to use die cuts this time!
