Guest Designer for Pink Cricut!

Hello Crafty Friends!

Today I have the pleasure of being a Guest Designer over at Pink Cricut!

Sarah is a super sweet and generous person and crafter who has her own line of sentiment stamps, background stamps, and image stamps called Pink By Design. She also has a stamp of the month club that offers an exclusive stamp set each month.

Don't you just love PBD stamps?! If you don't have any of her stamps, what are you waiting for?! You must stop by Pink By Design and pick up a set (or two, or three).

Today I'd like to share with you a couple of cards I made using the "With Sympathy" sentiment stamp set.




(Sorry about the quailty of the pics. I'm not sure what's up with my camera.)

Sympathy cards are always the hardest for me to make. I usually make cute cards with ribbons, buttons, and bling, so I had to hold back the bling for these. And finding just the right thing to say can be tough. But with this stamp set all you need to do is choose the appropriate sentiment for the outside/inside of your card.

Details:

Orange card
White card base
Cardstock from my stash
Orange twine from The Twinery
ekSuccess punch with edges inked
PBD sentiment stamped in orange
3D paper flower sprayed with shimmer Glimmer Mist
Button made using Epiphany Crafts Button Studio
Button adhered to center of the flower using Helmar Liquid Scrap Dots

Yellow card
White card base
Cardstock from my stash embossed with floral Cuttlebug folder
Silver cardstock is Recollections
ekSuccess punch with edges embossed silver
PBD sentiment embossed in silver

I wasn't sure about them, but I like the simplicity of them. I hope you like them to and add some PBD stamps to your collection!

Here is a picture of me and Sarah Pink Cricut. I had the pleasure of meeting her in person this past January when she traveled to LA for CHA.


Thanks for stopping by!
