Today I am sharing a project for
Pink and Main stamps and dies.

For my cards today, I used the new Aloha Pineapple stamp set, Aloha Pineapple coordinating dies and the Shades of Spring 6x6 paper pad.

I used several colors of inks to stamp out two of the cute pineapples from the set and added a face to each one, then I die cut them with the coordinating dies. Then I stamped the heart in several colors to coordinate. Next, I stamped and white heat embossed the sentiments from the set. I added some burlap to kraft card bases then added the pineapples to the top of the burlap. Then I added the hearts and a few drops of coordinating Nuvo crystal and glitter drops. 



I used some of the orange chevron patterned paper from the Shades of Spring 6x6 paper pad for the sentiment on this card.

For my project, I made a fun 2x2 Mini Album using several products from this month's Pink and Main release, along with the Xyron Create a Sticker Max, 1.5in. Sticker Maker and the Wedge Shaped Permanent Glue stick.



I started the mini album by using a Lori Whitlock svg, a 2x2 accordion mini album, that I cut with the Cricut Explore Air 2 out of the Beach Babe 6x6 paper pad and a few other coordinating card stocks. Then I ran those pieces to adhere them through the Create a Sticker Max and built my album, the few pieces that only needed a little bit of adhesive, I used the Wedge shaped glue stick and built the album.


Next, I went on to decorate the cover. I stamped, colored and die cut the images from the Sending Waves stamp set and the Sending Waves Dies. I stamped and die cut the sentiment in white and used the Stitched Rounded Rectangles die (Smallest One).


The pages all together in the accordion album. 
The pages are simply decorated to leave plenty of room for journaling, pictures, stickers, etc. I used the Stitched Rounded Square Die to create some journaling spots from some lined project life cards. The album has about 5 of these spots.



I also used The Scoop stamp set and The Scoop Coordinating Dies. I also used the Stitched Rounded Rectangles die for the sentiment from the set. How cute are these images?!? The Create a Sticker Max was perfect to add all these images to the album.







For the back of the album, I added a Stitched Rounded Rectangle Die in white to add the name and date.

Front and back covers.
This little album came out so cute and I think it will be perfect for our kids to record their summer memories in! 

Don't forget to visit the Pink and Main Blog and the Xyron Facebook page to see more inspiration all week!  Have a wonderful day!!

For my card today, I used the newly released Congrats Die and Coordinating Congrats Stamp Set, perfect for all occasions and it coordinates great with so many other Pink and Main stamps. I started the card by die cutting several of the "Congrats" from white cardstock for the background, then die cut it in silver shimmer card stock with the layer piece in Vellum card stock. I layered the two pieces together and adhered it to a white panel. Next, I stamped the coordinating sentiment right below it in black ink. Then I added the white die cut congrats to the rest of the background, for a tone on tone look. Finally, I added some gold glitter die cut hearts and some clear sequins to finish the card off. I added the panel to a top folding white card base.

Woo-Hoo!!! Today is my crafty BFFs, Stacey's Birthday!!!
So of course, I had to make a fun card using a couple of her favorite companies to go with her gifts.
I hope you have an amazing day my awesome friend!!!
Eat some yummy stuff and be a queen for the day!!

For Stacey's card, I used one of the card bases she sent me to try out, Mermaid card stock (Lawn Fawn) for the base layer, I used the Perfectly Plaid Rainbow 6x6 (Lawn Fawn) die cut with the Basic Set die (Mama Elephant). I also cut the coordinating layer in white card stock and I heat embossed in silver the "Make a Wish" sentiment from the Make a Wish stamp set (My Favorite Things) toward the bottom of the panel. Then I die cut the cake layers from the Interactive Birthday cake die (MFT) in purple and from the Under The Sea 6x6 (Doodlebug Design). I had to cut this piece twice because the first time it was upside down!! That's okay, I used it on the second card. I'm not about wasting from my mistakes, especially precious DB paper!! I die cut the candles from white card stock and copic colored them and added them to the cake top. I used some pearlescent teal cardstock for the pull tab for the slider. I added some Nuvo Glitter drops in White Blizzard to the cake and candles, I think it looks like pretty sparkly frosting. I even added some droplets around the card and some sparkling clear 4mm sequins (Pretty Pink Posh.) 

This is the card with the cake slider up to reveal the second layer, isn't that just so fun?
I love it!

This is my second card, made with my "whoops" cut out!!! Hahaha!
Upside down scallops, why not?! :)
I just used an orange card base from Lawn Fawn- Fake Tan.


Thank you so much for stopping by!!

Have a wonderful day everyone!

For my card, I used the Need Coffee stamp set, which also has newly released coordinating Need Coffee dies too!! I started with a white top folding card base, next I layered some fun coordinating coffee themed patterned paper from Doodlebug Design then used the Stitched Rounded Rectangles Die (Largest one) to die cut the background. Then I added a doily cut in half to look like a rug for the girls to stand on. Then I stamped the sentiment on the bottom half of the doily in dark brown ink. Next, I stamped and colored the girl with black, copic friendly ink, I colored her hair, curlers and skin with copics. I paper pieced the rest of the image with coordinating papers and added some white gel pen accents, glitter brush pen and some glossy accents and popped the girl up with some foam adhesive. Then I finished the card with some enamel accents.

For my Summer inspired card, I used the new Too Cool Stamp set and coordinating dies from the May 2017 release.

I stamped and colored the bear with the ice cream and then paper pieced his cute shirt. I used paper from the Shades of Spring 6x6 paper pad, I die cut a dark blue rectangle from the stack with the Stitched Rectangle die then stamped and heat embossed the sentiment from the set in white on the bottom. Then I popped up the bear on the rectangle. I cut some large fishtail banners to the card base, one shorter than the other to a side folding A2 card and round the corners on one side. I added all the layers to the card then finished the bear with some glossy accents and sprinkles to his ice cream with several different colors of Glaze pens.

Then I finished the card off with some bright and colorful enamel dots.
