Bronze Anniversary ~ Double D

Happy New Year, my friends!  I hope you had a safe and happy entrance into 2024.  We stayed tucked in at home and enjoyed a quiet evening.  We're too old for celebrating big on new year's eve.  Our idea of celebrating is hubby falling asleep in his chair while watching tv, waiting to watch the ball drop.  I celebrate from the comfort of my bed with my eyes closed. haha!

Anyway, Double D Challenge is ringing in the new year with a birthday / anniversary, celebrating their 8th year!  Can you believe it??  

Darlene and Diane do such an amazing job keeping all their challenge blogs straight and the inspiration photo's they use are always inspiring.

I used a bronze embossed scrap of cardstock from my scrap bin, Add to Cart Celebration Add-Ons from Spellbinders and vellum flowers from Pinkfresh Studio.  The sentiment is an "oldie" from Papertrey ink.

I hope you'll stop by the Double D Challenge blog and join in on the fun.

Here's the inspiration board to help you get started:

Garden Cart ~ ScrapbookPal

Share the gift of love with your favorite gardener.  Did you know that the month of April is declared  National Garden Month? But May and June are just a few steps away, with Mother’s Day and Father’s day on the horizon. 

I’m revisiting one of my favorite Spellbinders collections, “Add To Cart” for ScrapbookPal. 

Choose from the Add To Cart “Right Facing” or “Left Facing” and then fill your cart with your favorite gardening items using dies from “In The Garden”, “Plant It Here” or “Shopping Run”.

I don't know about you, but a shopping cart filled with things like this just makes me happy!  I enjoy being outside working in the yard and flower gardens, and visiting my favorite garden spots in the spring brings joy to my soul.

My love of gardening was passed down from my dad, who's mother, my grandmother, passed it down to him.  I have vivid memories of both of them tending to their beautifully landscaped yards.  My gardening skills don't hold a candle to their skilled hands, but I enjoy the process and the peace and solitude of being outside working in God's beautiful creation.

I had a few leftovers, so they found their way to another card.  No sentiment, just CAS.

I hope you enjoyed today's cards.  You can find all the products I used at ScrapbookPal.

Add To Cart ~ Spellbinders

Hello friends, I'm back today with two more cards using the fun "Add To Cart" collection from Spellbinders.  

I've gone shopping once again and filled my cart with loads of summer colored items for my home and garden. 

 

Isn't this shopping cart just the cutest?  And look at the goodies I found to put in my cart.  I filled the Right Facing Cart with items from the Shopping Run die set and Plant It Here die set.  Each of these sets have a plethora of amazing finds that you can use with the cart or as stand alone dies.

This next card, I used just the plants and boot dies from the Plant It Here collection.  I wanted to show you that you can use these collections apart from the Shopping Cart and still make delightful cards.

Here is a recap of all the cards I've made using this new collection from Spellbinders:

Spellbinders ~ Add To Cart Release

Hello friends ~  I'm here with you today with a couple of cards I made using dies from the newest addition to the Add To Cart collection by Becky Roberts, at Spellbinders.

This release pushes all the buttons for the Green-thumb within me.

This first card is pure delight!  I start every spring season off, with a trip several trips to the local gardening centers and greenhouses in my area, looking to see what I might add to my extensive flower beds.  

There is a Right Facing Cart and a Left Facing Cart in this collection.  I filled the Right Facing Cart with accessories from the In The Garden die set.  There are 14 dies in this set, with so many fun accessories to choose from.  

This card is made using the Mini Slimline Envelope & Nested Card Creator.

I wanted to show you how you can use the dies independently of the shopping cart die, so the second card uses the rake and shovel from In The Garden, to which I added the "happy birthday" sentiment from Layered Mix & Match Sentiments.  The plant and watering can are from the Plant It Here die set, which you'll see more of in a future post.

I hope you've enjoyed today's offerings.

Spellbinders ~ Add To Cart Collection ~ Party On!

Good morning friends~  I'm delighted to share today's cards with you, that I made using Spellbinders "Party On!" die set, which is part of the Add To Cart collection. 

For both cards, I cut the wine glasses and wine bottle out of Neenah Solar White cardstock and  colored them using copics.  I added a bit of Wink of Stella to the wine in the glasses so it sparkled.  

I added the banner and masks to the second card, this time using the champagne glasses.  

 

This release is by Becky Roberts and it is so fun and innovative! 

This is the perfect set for any celebration, from birthday to wedding, girls night out and anything in between.
