Welcome to Day 1 of our blog hop with LDRS Creative! We are excited to showcase fabulous inspiration created with both company’s products. Join us each day this week through Friday to see what both talented design teams have done plus an opportunity to win a giveaway…details at the end of the post!
Michele here with day 1 of the Scrapbook Adhesives By 3L® and LDRS Creative blog hop! I had so much fun creating a card to spread a little joy! I used this adorable stamp from LDRS called, Eggstra Special. I colored her in with water colored pencils. I stamped the sentiment directly on the image using LDRS’s Wishing You stamp. I used Crafty Foam Tape to mount the image on another piece of card stock to add some depth.
The background was a bit of an experiment involving a stencil and Tim Holtz crayons. 😉 I used stars and glitter to add a bit of sparkle. I adhered the back panel to the card using E-Z Squares® Refillable Dispenser. To add the sequins I used an Adhesive Dots Mini. I love the Minis because there is no messy glue and so much easier to adhere tiny items, like sequins!
Thank you for joining us today!
Supplies:

Love the wonderful colors in this card. I make 4-6 cards a week so I’m always on the lookout for new ideas and color combinations.
By Sathya Kala May 16, 2016 - 7:51 am
Such a lovely card…Cheerful colors.. Almost 6-7 cards in a month, i make…
By Mary Holshouser May 16, 2016 - 9:56 am
I teach a card class so I make about 15 for samples (I make one, improve it, make another…….., until I’m happy – or it’s time for the class to start). Then there are usually 4 or 5 occasions during the month that I need a card and I make them as I need them. Right now I’m making 17 of the same card – some will be for a card swap and I need
7 for birthday cards to send to the ladies of one of my classes. (Going to be prepared ahead of time this year).
I’ll be using lots of your adhesive on those cards.
thanks.

What a sweet card Michele made! I belong to a faith art happy mail group so I make and try to send at least 10 cards a week. I have so many more I’ve made that have never been sent–I really should find good homes for them! Thanks for the fun today! See you tomorrow!! 🙂

By Christine Kosmak May 16, 2016 - 9:02 pm
This is just such a gorgeous card! Loving those colours and would love to be able to get those Tim Holtz crayons to try myself! Unfortunately my carers pension, or rather what’s left of it after the government take back almost half for rent, doesn’t quite stretch to cover all of the gorgeous goodies that I have on my “never ever gonna end” wish list!! lol! As to how many cards I’ve made recently, unfortunately I haven’t gotten around to making any. 🙁 !!! I’d need to do an archaeological type dig to find the top of my table!! LOL!!
By Fe Mejia May 16, 2016 - 9:24 pm

I love making cards, but it really varies from month to month on how many I am able to make. I like to putter at it and take my time. The featured card is super sweet! The sparkly stars are a lovely touch. Such a heartwarming sentiment too.
By Tee Hall May 16, 2016 - 11:17 pm
I am new to card making and have only made a few so far.
By Tina V May 16, 2016 - 11:50 pm
I love the card and the dimension along with the sequence sparkle. I really like the idea of adhering them with Dotz mini! I only make about 1-2 cards a week on average because I make bunches of them with a gathering of friends every few months so I have a stash always ready to use…but I’m always on the hunt for new ideas to share at the ladies card night!
By TracyM #6773 May 17, 2016 - 12:22 am
DELIGHTFUL card, she is SO CUTE and your background GORGEOUS!!!
THANK YOU for sharing with us Michele 🙂
As for cardmaking, I have a schedule of MUST-HAVE cards each year for birthdays and special occasions that averages about 5 a month, separate to those I make Christmas, other holidays and “just because” cards when I can … my 1st Christmas card was made in January, I was off to a good start but need to get a move on with them now so I avoid another last minute rush!
By Deborah S May 17, 2016 - 1:51 am

I love making cards and make about 15-20 a month. Some months are full of crafting and stamping, especially around the holidays. Stamping is my favorite way to get creative and relax and I try to do a little bit every day.

I only manage 1 or 2 cards a month truthfully or less due to illness. But I wish I could do at least one a week. This card is so cute! I love the background and how it matches your main panel but doesn’t take away from it. Awesome work! Thanks for sharing.

Sadly I due to health and home remodel issues I’ve not been able to create any cards for a few months. Things are looking up and progress made so my plan is too start creating again in the next few days.
I love your card. Love everything about it and the colors are to die for. The stamp is adorable.
By Helen Gullett May 20, 2016 - 11:24 am
I make between 10-20 cards in a month, sometimes more depend on the requests from friends and families.
And, I love your card, it is very cute and the coloring is fabulous.
