Thank You Kindly

Before we get started with our Simply Sunday post we would like to say Thank You so much to all of you for your wonderful comments and emails last week for our first Simply Sunday post. We had a few inquiries with people asking to be added to the blog roll for Simply Sundays and at this point in time we are not going to be adding links to other blogs. Simply Sunday is something that we want to keep as simple as possible and we wanted to personally challenge ourselves with creating simple cards and to share them with all of you. However if you decide that you would also like to take on this challenge of creating simple cards please leave a link to you blog or gallery so we can see what you created. Also by leaving a link on one or all of our blogs other people will be able to click on your link and see your creations too.

Thank you so much!

Heidi, Karen & Terre

NESTABLING.......BE MINE!!!!!!


Don't these Valentine's Day cards just look like you bought them from your local store...guess what with the new "Nestabling" you could create these fun and blinged out cards too...just like I did.

Here's what I used to create these cards, Nestabling Labels Five, Nestabling Scalloped Hearts, Want2Scrap Clear Rhinestones, Want2Scrap Red Rhinestones, Spellbinders LF-127 Grand Scalloped Squares, S4-229 Labels Five, LF-161 Grand Labels One, S4-161 Labels Ones, Stamps are from JustRite Stampers, Adorable Dragon and Just Ducky and my favorite paper line....Abbey Road from My Minds Eye
and the Blue Twill is from Creative Impressions.

Here are all of the pieces cut using the Grand Calibur from Spellbinders...just look at that beautiful Nestabling Heart!!!!

I used my Copic Markers to color this adorable dragon, after I was finished coloring I took my colorless blender and dotted the dragon's skin to make it look like scales....cool right?

I added just a Want2Scrap red rhinestone to the dragons tail, after all dragons like bling too!


Love those large format die templates that Spellbinders created, they make the most wonderful card bases.


I cut out the S4-229 Labels Five die templated and using my new "Labels Five Nestabling" adding
 rhinestones was so simple and time saving.....thank you Michele!!!!





I added the clear rhinestones to my S4-235 Fancy Tag to add just a little splash of bling.



Thank you for stopping by my blog post, I hope you have enjoyed my handmade Valentine's Day cards and this wonderful new product..."Nestabling".
Hugs, Terre
