Fun in the Rain with Chickaniddy Crafts

Today is my final post as Guest Designer on the Chickaniddy Crafts blog. I have absolutely LOVED working with Chickaniddy! Their collections are just so much fun! I have used the super fabulous Jolly Good collection, once again, showcasing the incredible versatility of this line. I love it. For reals, though.



I pulled out not only the papers, but stickers and die cuts for this super fun rainy day hello card. I used simple techniques to add both color and dimension and you can read about those on the Chickaniddy blog! I just love how all of the elements come together so well!



This Spellbinders® sentiment die was the perfect fit for this fun, rainy day hello! I sort of love it.

Be sure to head on over to the Chickniddy blog for details on the techniques I used and to check out the amazing inspiration provided by the Chickaniddy design team!

A Wintry Hello with Chickaniddy Crafts

Today is my second day on the Chickaniddy Crafts blog as Guest Designer. Can I tell you how much I am LOVING this Jolly Good Collection SO MUCH! It was great for holiday cards, perfect for New Year cards, and now, I've used it for a pretty winter Hello card! And just wait... I have another great use for this collection coming later this month! Seriously...it does it all. And that, my friends, is the mark of an awesome collection, if you ask me!

For this card I used three different patterned papers and cut them into strips to create a unique and pretty background. I added a small strip of washi tape and then the rest of the card was easy peasy! EASY PEASY, you guys! For reals, though. 

I dusted the back of a snowflake sticker with my EK Success powder tool and used foam dots to attach it to the card. I used a mini brad from the Jolly Good collection in the center. I love the finish on these brads... not too shiny, but not dull, either. They have a great texture and the colors are gorgeous! I then grabbed a stamp from the Date Night collection to stamp the sentiment and added an enamel star to finish it off. 

Be sure to head on over to the Chickaniddy Crafts Blog for TONS of inspiration, you guys! Their team is really amazing! 

Have a Happy!

A Very Chickaniddy New Year!

I am very excited to be guest designing over at Chickaniddy Crafts for the month of January! I love Chickaniddy products and I am so excited to share some fun projects with you over the course of the month! Today is my first post over on the Chickaniddy blog! I created a super fun New Year's card with a vellum pocket shaker feature! SO FUN!



I filled the vellum pocket with die cut pieces from the Jolly Good Die cuts collection. They are numbered and absolutely PERFECT for New Year's! I stitched the pocket shut for a fun accent!
