Anniversary Card by Shelly

Welcome for more fun in introducing our new design team members and sharing some of their craftiness.  Today we welcome Shelly Kurth who was on the SRM Design Team a few years ago.  I've always been a fan of and inspired by Shelly's clean and simple style and am so excited to have her on the team once again.  

Here is a bit about Shelly in her own words: 

Hi! Greetings from sunny Florida! I'm a mother to my four beautiful yet silly kids, as well as a wife to my husband. I started scrapbooking way back in 2003 or 2004...it was a long time ago. ;)  Shortly after I started scrapbooking, I realized that my true passion was in making cards. From that point on I've been hooked! I also love to make sweet little gifts, too! My style is typically clean and simple. However, sometimes I will mix things up a bit and try something new and different. I'm beyond excited to be joining the SRM Design Team and I hope y'all enjoy everything that I share with you! Thank you for having me! :) 

Hey y'all! Shelly, here! 

Today I'm swinging on in to share an anniversary card with you. 

When I was thinking of how to use SRM's calendar stickers, I thought of memorable dates. I had two that stood out most to me, which was my wedding anniversary and my home anniversary. I decided to go with my wedding anniversary.

I started with choosing my patterned papers. I tried my best to stick with more of masculine papers. ;) Once having my papers chosen, I then started piecing things together, though not adhering anything yet. After looking at things, I thought my card needed a little more 'pop' to it, so I added a strip of black cardstock. I also I added a little bit of twine and mini staple to my '2017' banner. After, I placed things on my card. Though before adhering anything, I added a flower sticker on my card base, just to peek out from under the calendar sticker on top. To finish things off, I added a little glitter gold enamel heart to our 'date'.  I'd love to hear what you think?!...Perhaps, I've inspired you to get an early start on your anniversary card, too?! :)

I Love You by Michele

Good morning! Michele here with a little Valentine/anniversary card to share with you!

I  absolutely adore this new Jane's Doodle's set called, Love Birds!   It is such a sweet set.  I wanted these little birdies to profess their love by moonlight.  So I punched a circle out of scrap card stock and placed it over my "good" card stock.  I sponged yellow ink.  Then I took the circle I had punched, laid it over the yellow moon, and sponged shades of blue around it. 

I love the halo effect I had and decided to add a bit of glitter around it.  The bird were colored with Copic markers.  I added glossy accents to their wings and beaks.  I sprinkled glitter over them.  I also added Flower Soft to the branch for added dimension and texture. I slipped a doily between layers for added sweetness.  ;) 

I was on a glossy accents kick I guess, because I also added it to the sentiment.  

Thank you so much for stopping by today!

Love Is… by Cathy A.

Hello!  Cathy A. here with a lovely stamped and stickered card.  

My husband always sends me little cartoons called "Love Is...... " when I go away and they always make me smile!  That was the inspiration for this "Love is" card that can be used for an anniversary or wedding or just to say you love your better half!

The inside of the card was then stamped with Memento Angel Pink ink and the other part of the Forever sticker attached inside.

The front was created by stamping Penny Black's Bed of Roses stamp and then adding white embossing powder and heat setting.  The whole area was then coloured with Gelatos in Red Cherry, Bubble Gum and Guava. The 2 hearts were cut using a heart die and Platinum Shimmer twine bows were added and then topped with pearls. The card design was then layered and the sentiment from the Forever We've Got Your Sticker added to a scrap piece of white card.  This was then layered on pink card and attached to the card together with the hearts. 

Thanks for stopping by and have a crafty day!

Wedding Favors by Juliana

Juliana Michaels has created the most beautiful wedding or 50th anniversary favors.  For her first favor she decorated one of SRM's Clear Rectangular Boxes using a Krylon Gold Leafing Pen. Love the little gold dots scattered all over this clear box!

Juliana then placed stickers from SRM's Wedding Stickers by the Dozen on self stick glitter paper using a circular punch to mount the circle shaped sticker. 

For her second favor, Juliana used SRM's tall, thin rectangular box.  She hand cut the banner shape for the "love is" sticker from the same Wedding set. She then removed the backing and stuck the stickers onto the boxes.

 She also wrapped a length of Gold Shimmer twine and tulle around both of her favors to dress them up even more!

If you have a wedding coming up, SRM's clear boxes are the perfect solution for your wedding favor.  They are affordable and you can match any wedding color to these boxes.  Thanks for the inspiration Juliana.  These are gorgeous!  

You & Me by Corrie

Corrie Jones wondered where stickers had been all her life when she was creating this layout using our Anniversary stickers. She was able to assemble her layout so quickly and easily!

We have another fun school project lined up for tomorrow, come back and see us!
