An Instagram Inspired Card

I {Heart} Instagram - - - Yes I do!

I {Heart} Instagram - - - How about you?

I'm having some camera fun today as I show off my latest creation for The Cutting Cafe.

And are you guys addicted to Instagram like I am?

Please leave a note in the comments below if you are on the site.

{I'd love to follow you.}

I really love the Cutting Cafe's Camera Photo Shaped Holder Template.

My girly camera was made using some Dear Lizzy - Lucky Charm paper and embellies. I made the kraft butterfly using my Stampin' Up punch.

My camera is a flat notecard, however there are so many uses for this file. It also includes a holder that is capable of holding up to ten 4" x 6" photos. There are several fun sentiments with this set too. See this post for more details.

See ya back here tomorrow for another fun-filled project!



A Wittle House & Chevrons

 

Happy Monday ya'll!

 

I've got a fun card for ya today.

A friend of mine just bought her very first home. This card will accompany the house warming gift that I am making for her.

And look at those brightly colored chevrons!

 

I'm entering this one in the Moxie Fab World's Card Creations Week: The Chevron Challenge.

 

 

 

I just love the wittle house on my card! The paper and chipboard embellies are from the Dear Lizzy - 5th & Frolic collection. The chevron washi tape is from Paper Issues.

 

 

 

And be sure to check out this fun Pinterest Board this week. You will love the inspiration there!
