Happy Birthday- Graphic 45 and Elizabeth Craft Designs die

Hello Crafty Friends! 

Today is my day to post at Quietfire Creations and I decided to make a cheerful and easy to mail card using the newly released Quietfire dies from Elizabeth Craft Designs:

Isn't it a beautiful die?  

Here is a close look at the fussy cut Graphic 45 flowers:

Of course I used Stickles on the flower centers.  Sure, I made an easy to mail card but that doesn't mean I can't add some shimmer!  :)

Thanks so much for stopping by!  Feel free to hop on over to Quietfire...there is a lot of wonderful inspiration on the blog.  

Have a happy crafty weekend!

Hugs,

Kathy Jo

Our Friendship Spans the Miles...

Hello Crafty Friends!

Quietfire Design has been busy lately- Suzanne has released many new beautiful stamp sets and dies!  Next week starts the die extravaganza at Quietfire Creations (stay tuned for more details).  Today I wanted to share a project using one of the newly released stamps, "Our friendship spans the miles" from the In a Perfect World stamp set:

The card also used a banner from my new Cheery Lynn Pierced Banners die set, both hearts from the Two of Hearts set and the Southern Charm Valance.  The butterfly from Butterfly In was cut and added in between the two hearts.

All of the patterned paper is from Graphic 45's Home Sweet Home set.  The ink is also from Graphic 45.

I do hope you enjoyed the card using Quietfire's new stamp.  It really is a wonderful stamp from a beautiful set!
Have a happy crafty day!
Big Hugs,
Kathy Jo
