Momenta Rainbow Dreams



I hope you're having a great day! Today I'm sharing a card I made with Momenta dies! I love discovering a new brand and I think you will too. I've been purchasing Momenta for several years now - they make stickers, punches, iron ons, stamps and yes! dies! AND.. I can find them at lots of my favorite stores including Hobby Lobby, Joann and Scrapbook.com.

I made this card with the Rainbow die set. I started with a distress ink background of inky clouds.
Next I piled on the die cuts! Some of the dies are adhered flat to the card base (the rainbow, sun, moon and stars).
Other dies are adhered with adhesive foam tape to add dimension (clouds, shooting star).
Momenta makes lots of word dies. I selected the word "dream" from the Hope Word Fetti set. I cut it twice.. once from white card stock and once from gold. They're stacked with a slight offset so the gold peeks from behind. Can you believe you get 10 word dies for $13?
I hope your day is sunshine and rainbows!

TupeloDesignsLLC - Indoor Garden

TGIF! And what a treat! Most of us get an extra day off for Labor Day! This is usually the last Summer fling for us - September is here and the weather is changing fast!
I love to garden - but I've never gotten a hang of the house plant thing. I am very neglectful and forget to water. I have only one houseplant in my home and it's an orange tree. When we were in Florida last November I picked up a seedling that I intended to give away. My son convinced me to put it in a pot and I'm not sure how.. but the little guy is still alive. I have it in my craft room to remind me of sunny days and to remind myself to never think "can't" .. but yes I still forget to water it. 
Stamped house plants are my passion. My only green thumb is from inking! This set called Indoor Garden from Altenew is lots of fun. 
The layered images are easy to stamp and the coordinating die set makes them easy to cut. 
I layered mine on a die cut background that is layered over a distress inked panel. I love the sunny yellow peeking through the openings. 
I'm hoping you find some time to craft this long holiday weekend. Maybe you want to go shopping? I sure hope you'll give TupeloDesignsLLC a chance. You'll find all your favorites in one place.. and I expect you'll find some new favorites too. Best of all shipping is FREE everyday (USA Only.. discounted rates international) no coupon required.

12 Kits of Occasions - Fairy Tales

It's the last day of the month and you know what that means right? It's time for The 12 Kits of Occasions! The 12 Kits of Occasions is a group of 12 friends who all love to paper craft. Every month we take turns making a kit for the rest of the group. We all receive the same kit with the same items. On the last day of the month we reveal what we each made with the kit. It's fun to see how we used the product in different ways. Sometimes the projects are similar and sometimes they are very different.

Our hostess this month is Birgit Norton from Crafting While I Wait blog. Birgit's kit was filled with lots of magical things.. faeries, mermaids and a sprinkle of pixie dust! The kit was fantastic and I loved it all.. my only regret this time is that I didn't have enough time to play. 

Want to see more projects made with this kit? Head on over to The 12 Kits of Occasions blog where you'll find a sample from each of the team members as well as a list of ingredients in the kit.



Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Fusion - Vase of Daisies

I hope you're having a great day! I'm pinned in the house today because the town is tearing up the street working on the water lines down my block . I'm keeping busy with a little crafting. Are you looking for a challenge to play today? Check out the new one from Fusion Card Challenge...

What a cheery bunch of daisies! I love them! Not loving the daisies? Turn it into a color challenge of yellow and blue.. not loving the colors? That's ok too. Just work with the sketch.
I'm sticking with the daisies. I love flowers because they make me happy - I love the bold colors and arranging them (like working a puzzle) until I'm happy. These easy stamped blooms are from Pretty Pink Posh called Bold Blooms.
The blooms are arranged in a blue vase like the photo. My vase is actually a die cut Decorative Eggs die. I love when I can multipurpose my dies. The background was created with the Stacked Edges 2 die. I cut the border in shades of yellow and adhered them to my card base for a colorful stitched background.

Little Bee Friends are buzzing around the arranged florals because they smell so sweet! :P
Now it's your turn! I can't wait to see how this weeks sketch/photo inspires you!
