A Cute Girlie Card

Sugar and spice and everything nice...
need a card for sweet little girl? If so, then look no further than GCD Studios Pure Bliss collection! It is chock full of darling papers, patterns and sweet embellishments! I especially love the yellow in this collection.

Here is a card I made using the Pure Bliss collection:

I started with the colorful floral paper and built the rest of the card around it. I pulled colors from the floral paper to help embellish the card.

I had a blast layering embellishments on this card! When layering, I prefer to use foam tape to give the layers even more dimension. And how about I let you in on a little secret of mine.... when I work with stickers (such as the "Hello" sticker), I add a small piece of cardstock on the back of the sticker which then allows me to add foam tape to the back of the sticker, rather than just adhering the sticker flat on the card. Easy to do, and yet lends a bigger punch to the overall card design.

Supplies: Paper - Pure Bliss collection 6"x6" paper pad: #2031; Embellishments - Pure Bliss collection Element Stickers: #2033; Pure Bliss collection Die Cut Borders: #2036

Other supplies: (twine) The Twinery; (pearls) Michael's; tool (corner rounder punch) WRMK

Instructions:
1. Make card from cardstock. Cover with blue patterned paper. Round edges of card.
2. Adhere strip of alphabet paper. Round edges of block of floral paper; adhere to card with foam tape.
3. Embellish card with border strips and stickers; adhere all with foam tape.
4. Adhere pearls to 'sunshine' tag.
5. Wrap twine around card; tie bow; adhere heart sticker to bow center.
Finished size: 5" square

Howl Are You?

Hello everyone! Nina here today to share a girlie card made with Pure Bliss collection.  I'm in love with this little owl!

by: Nina Yang

Supplies: All patterned paper from Pure Bliss 6x6 pad #2031

One thing I like a lot about Heather's collections is that you can't go wrong. They all look adorable alone or together. I cut the owl pieces out using my digital die cut machine and a pattern I bought online. I used some ivory cardstock for the eyes, sentiment strip and the beak (colored with markers). The little bow cut out from the accents sheet in the 6x6 pad is the cherry on top! Fun and cute!

Thank you for stopping by! Happy Crafting!

Let's get girlie!

If I have to pick a new favorite collection from GCD, this might be it! (Although I think I said that with the last collection I worked with, too! :) )

 The pinks and florals in this line really got me in the mood to do something girly, and since my daughter LOVES to dress up all the time, I thought these photos would be perfect!

 I started with a pink background and wanted to add some texture. I was inspired by her tulle skirts, so I just bunched up some tulle on the page, glued it in some spots that wouldn't show the glue, and then machine stitched over it in some areas.

I splattered some yellow paint and a bit of grey mist here and there, and also misted my alphas yellow to match.  You will also see a glimmer of some sequins here and there!

I like to balance out my design with something going off the edge of the page somewhere.  Here is a little cluster with paper, a sticker, and a brad.

 And what else could be more girly than bows?  I love seeing the paper bow trend popping up on pages now!  I found a free template online and used it to create these little bows, which were very easy to make!

 Pink, tulle, sequins, and bows....what could be more girly than that???  :)

Thanks for stopping by today!

A Dreamy Layout

Hi There!  Rochelle here to share with you a truly girlie-girl layout!  

 Pure Bliss collection had the perfect papers for this photo.  Here my daughter is in her own little world.   The title, "Dream a Little Dream" came from the Pure Bliss Happy Hoops paper and worked well!   I also used different pieces of Pure Bliss scraps to make the lollipop flower. It was simple, I just free hand cut a bunch of different size circles from different papers. I then distressed the edges and crumbled them in my hands.  After that I layered and placed an awesome brad in the center.  The leaves were cut from scraps of the Bows paper. Here's are some close ups:

GCD supplies: Pure Bliss Papers - Alphabet (#2019), Happy Hoops (#2018), Bows (#2028), Journal tags (#2025) and Crossword (#2021).  Also used Pure Bliss Embellishments - Die Cut Borders (#2036), Paper Clips, (#2035) Brads (#2034), and label stickers (#2033). Other: Twine.

10 Reasons Why

 Hi there friends. Our children takes up the majority of our scrapbook pages. And sometimes it gets a little redundant. I mean, they have yearly birthdays, first day of school, holiday events and everything in between. That’s why with this layout I decided to write a special letter to my daughter to change out things a little bit. This page was actually inspired by the title that I had cut out from a pattern paper in the Pure Bliss collection then I wrote 10 reasons why I wanted my little sweetie to never stop dreaming.

I wanted to make this “letter” to my daughter very personal so I handwritten my journaling.

I dressed up my title circle with epoxy dots and adhered it with foam adhesive to add dimension to it.

Little bits of fun stickers and pins finished off my page.

A Layout About Your Child's Personality

Good morning!! Suzanna here sharing a layout with you about my daughter's personality. She has A LOT of personality for a little girl. The biggest feature of all the bits and pieces that make her who she is, is her enthusiasm. No matter what we do (or don't do) she always the most enthusiastic of the bunch! I can always count on Mia to get us excited or find interest in the most mundane of activities.

 

There are a couple of special details of this layout that I would like to call your attention to. Wanting to use as much of this collection as possible, my solution to not having small enough letters for my title was to cute up the alpha found on the back side of the Crossword paper. I wanted a coordinating scallop border for the pre-cut border so traced the existing scallop onto the backside of Dainty Floral and used my Xacto to fussy cut.

Supplies: Pure Bliss collection - Dizzy Heart #2022, Crossword #2021, Journal Tags #2025, Happy Hoops #2018, Dainty Floral #2024, Brads #2034, Label Stickers #2033, Die Cut Borders #2036; Silhouette Cameo, font: Billabong

A Random Card For Love

I have three kids,

I love them in spite of the

fact that they are all teenagers. :)

Most everyday I let them know

that I think of them, but sometimes

it's nice to go the extra mile...

So I made a card for my oldest daughter

who will be on her way to college soon.

 I used the gorgeous Pure Bliss Collection including:

borders, 6 x 6 paper, paper clips & labels.

It's fun to mix-up the sticker and make them

say something all-together your own,

"today you are my happy" is just right for me.

Paper clips don't always have to clip papers together, right?

This paper clip and arrow sticker lead your eye directly to the greeting.

Happy creating!

Supplies: Pure Bliss Borders, 6 x6 paper, paper clips, & labels;

Tiny Attacher (Tim Holtz), Paper Piercer Pack (Stampin' Up!), Corner Chomper (WeRMemory Keepers), Natural Card Stock (Stampin' Up!)

Her Little Personality

Hello everyone! Christina here. I've got a new layout to share with you all. I made it using the Pure Bliss collection. Pure Bliss is the most beautiful collection I've ever worked with it! I love the soft tones, and the rustic feel of the papers.

This layout is all about my daughter's personality. I really wanted to document the type of person she is as a toddler. I printed out the journaling on some vellum, and simply made the personality traits stand out a little more by bolding them. I cut the title out with my Silhouette Cameo. As you can see, I created a visual triangle around the photos using the title and two wooden buttons. Each part of the visual trinagle has two similar groups. That beautiful floral patterned paper, and the wooden embellishments. Creating these types of visual triangles and groupings makes the page "flow".

Supplies Used:
Paper: (Pure Bliss) - Alphabet, Blooming, Journal Tags
(Charleston) - Anna
Cardstock: Bazzil Basics (Light Blue and Kraft)
Other: Pure Bliss 12" Die-Cut Borders, Pure Bliss Paper Clips, Studio Calico Wood Veneer circles

Thanks for reading!
