Craft-Dee Bowz Guest Designer

I am so excited to be Guest Designing for Craft-Dee Bowz once again.  I just love this bow making tool.  So easy and simple that anyone can use this product to create beautiful bows.

This style of image is difficult for me as I am not used to creating anything vintage.  So I went outside of my box and used three different sizes of the image and cut the out and used pop dots to give the raised effect.  The beautiful bow was created using the Craft-Dee Bowz tool.

True Friends

I created this using a beautiful sentiment from Friendship Vintage Labels Seven by JustRite®Papercraft.  I never would have thought to use black and tan together.  My sister Darsie who is the pro, was right!  This is one of my favorite creations, I hope you enjoy it too!

JustRite Papercraft Friday Challenge - CAS

Here is my 2nd attempt of CAS for the JustRite® Papercraft Friday Challenge.  Since I am not a fan of a lot of open white, I am trying a different approach to CAS with black.  Tell me what you think!  I had fun creating this birthday card using "Cupcake Stand", "Large Fancy Sentiments", "Pattern Basics" and "Topsy Turvy Cakes" all by JustRite® Papercraft.  Decorative border made with "Classic Insert Three" by Spellbinders® Paperarts.

Paper: Black, Pink and White Bazzill

JustRite Papercraft Friday Challenge - CAS

Here is a clean and simple creation for the JustRite® Papercraft Friday Challenge - CAS.  I am typically not comfortable with this style, but I am trying to go outside of my box.  Having a lot of white open space is very difficult for me, so here is my attempt.  I used "Black-Eyed Susan Labels Five" and "Enjoy The Day Vintage Labels Four" by JustRite® Papercraft.

Paper: White and Green Bazzill, The Paper Studio Yellow/White Polka Dot
