My first card today is using the new Free with Three set, “A Little Something”.
Keeping it simple and light, I made a birthday card using black onyx ink and some sequins. This is great because it can be made so quickly and yet look like a million bucks!
Throw some of those sequins in your envelope, and you will give your recipient a little surprise party 
My next card is using the new Green Thumb Diva mini stamp set. I totally love how this sweet card came out!
I colored the diva in with copics, but then paper pieced her pants to match my accent card stock which I stitched down the sides using my sewing machine. This is a nice idea because you are just bring a little bit of the background accents into the foreground. I grounded that gingham paper by using it to set off my sentiment as well, which then brought the gingham in three times, which is what you want to strive for in good design. I also brought it into the front of my envelope I made.
I kept her colors as close to the patterned paper colors as possible. I shaded her in a light violet. Remember, shade has color!
I also finished off the back of my envelope I made with my Kreate-a-Lope envelope maker and glue. Notice the stitching detail I brought into the strip. Before you adhere the strip, just run it on the sewing machine. This now ties in with the card front!
Hope you enjoyed the inspiration today! Go check out the other designers!

My first card today features 
Crazy, right? That is why when using vellum, you need to get a scrap piece and work on the perfect color match. After I colored the back of the vellum, I used my mono multi glue (the glue in a white bottle) and simply…wait for it…glued behind the flower and my frame line along the white embossing. Yup. No vellum glue required, but be careful 
What is really nice about this is that you don’t have to move your pictures from one place to another. You can just simply choose where you would like to pull them from. This was a screenshot from my phone which is a Samsung Galaxy, so your iPhone may look different in terms of choices. Once you choose where to pull your pictures from, you will be able to select each picture you would like by simply touching them. You may upload 50 at a time for printing. At the end you will be given an option what size you would like your pictures printed – Keep your eyes open for this. It is a small option in the upper right hand corner. I suggest getting batches of the same size pictures. I am not sure if you can mix or match sizes. You may go back and select more pictures to be printed, but just remember where you left off. My project Life book has turned into an Instagram only platform of scrapbooking for me, so I choose the 4×4 option for printing. This allows for a perfect square 4×4 image and you don’t have to trim them at all to fit in the
