Sometimes you just need simple, cute cards.  Here’s one I made the other day:

To make it I took some Sticky Back Canvas and had my Cricut cut out three 1 1/2″ circles.  I then sprayed them with “Key Lime Pie” and “Pieces of Heart” Glimmer Mist so that the colors blended together in places.

After I dried them with a heat gun I stamped on them using the “Regal Classic” Screen Prints and black StazOn ink.

Then I used a punch to punch out some scalloped ovals out of dictionary paper which I then sprayed with “Crushed Shells” Glimmer Mist.

To fold the ovals into a flower-ish shape I first creased it across the center vertically.

Then I creased it again across the center horizontally.

Then apply adhesive to the back side of it and adhere it to the Sticky Back Canvas circle.

Then, I threaded a button and adhered it to the flower.

Lastly I applied them to the front of my card that I had previously sewn with my sewing machine and stamped with one of my favorite stamps.  Since the back of the Sticky Back Canvas has adhesive on it you can just remove the protective backing and stick it right on the card.

Here’s a heritage layout I did that features my Great Grandparents way back in 1929…my Great Grandma was 27 in this photo!  Both my Great Grandparents have passed on, but this layout will be a great way to remember them.

To make this layout I started off by laying down some screens and spraying the background paper with Crush Shells and Patina Glimmer Mist.

I then sprayed the Irresistible tag  and Irresistible chipboard piece with Strawberry Shortcake Chalkboard Mist.   I cut the tag in half and then inked the edges.

Next I sprayed the back side of two pieces of ribbon with Crushed Shells and Pinecone Glimmer Mist.  I love how the Glimmer Mist completely covered the back of the ribbon, but only soaked into the thinner parts of it so that when I flipped it back to the front side it looked really cool!  I wrinkled it up into a ball before letting it dry to give it an old antiqued look.

For the flowers I sprayed some of Prima’s  white paper flowers with some of the new Glimmer Mist colors: Pomegrante, Dragonfly, and Sugar Maple.  Once they were dry I stamped on them using clear embossing ink and the Tattered Textures clear stamps and then sprinkled gold embossing powder over them.  I love how it looks once the embossing powder is heated up with a heat gun!!

Once all my pieces were ready I assembled the page and used foam adhesive to raise up some of the elements to give it a bit more dimension.  I also hand stamped my journaling and added a few other embellishments.  Here’s a close up:
