Hello Sunshine


Hello Sunshine!  You can bet there is a good possibility I'm drinking coffee while you're reading this...lol.

I'm here to remind you that the Coffee Loving Cardmakers Hop is still going on!  You can hop and comment through Friday for lots of chances to win some great prizes!  Start here at the A Jillian Vance Design Blog and enter for a chance to win a $20 gift code to the shop and where you'll find the complete hop list.


For today's card, I cut the coordinating mug die from the Hug In A Mug set from some design paper.  I had half a flower left over from a previous project so I adhered it to the mug and then trimmed it around the edge of it.

I layered some yellow cardstock and then the Polka Dot Backdrop and then popped the cup up over it.


Finally I stamped the sentiment from Sweet Sunflower onto a sentiment strip and trimmed it to 4 1/4" and then cut a strip a little wider and layered them together on the card.

That's me for today!  Don't forget to head on over and hop!


Thanks for stopping!  Come again soon!

Birthday Daisies Shaker


I'm back with some more Dancing Daisies... the Open Dancing Daisies this time!  And this time, I made a shaker card.


The Dancing Daisies and Open Dancing Daisies Cover Plates are perfect to make a quick and easy shaker card!  I just die cut the plate, added acetate to the back and foam tape around the edges.  I splattered an alcohol inked panel with some gold ink and when it was dry, I laid sequins over it and secured the acetate panel over the top.


Finally the sentiment and one more flower (that cute little one gets cut out with the cover plate).

That's me for today.  Thanks so much for stopping.  Come again soon!

Hello Dancing Daisies


I may or may not be on a daisy kick!  I love this Dancing Daisies Cover Plate!  It's an easy way to use a fabulous background to make a simple card!


I chose this green/gold alcohol inked panel and added gold centers to the daisies as well as a gold glitter hello.


Easy peasy!

Thanks so much for stopping!  Come again soon!

Thanks A Bunch of Daisies


Welcome back!  Today I've got a bunch of daisies for you!

I started by creating a background using a gel print and the Heirloom Hearts Stencil.  I die cut it with the Stitch Dot Rectangle die and then cut another in white.  Then I ran it through again with one of the Top Stitch Edges dies and popped it up over the stenciled panel.


I die cut a bunch of daisies from some purple colored gel prints and layered them together with gold centers.



Finally, a simple sentiment!

That's me for today!  Thanks for stopping.  Come again soon!

Sew Many Thanks


Now that Valentine's Day is over I'm gonna be using a lot of green I think!  But they won't ALL be St. Patrick's Day themed... how about some green and gold for a thank you card?


I used the Mini Quilt Block dies and cut them from gold metallic cardstock and a foiled gel print to create the center panel.  I cut the Sew word from green and gold metallic cardstocks and layered them together.


That's me for today!  Thanks so much for stopping.  Hope you'll come again soon!
