Sponsor Spotlight at Lollipop Crafts

Hello! Today is Sponsor Spotlight at Lollipop Crafts. Our awesome sponsor this week is eyeCandie Designs! Here's some info about the company:

eyeCandie Creations was created in 2012 to bring kawaii (japanese for cute) style stamps to the world of scrapbooking and card making. We are a family owned business based in Colorado. The day-to-day operations are run by me (Jeremy) and my wonderfuly crafty (not the devious type but the paper crafting type) wife, Candie. I am the artist, while my wife is the brains and inspiration. We are both elementary school teachers. The kids we teach are often the inspiration for my creations. We hope to grow into a company that is loved by all and enjoyed for generations.

Here's my card using one of their many cute images called 'Fly Away Ryan'...

Made a mini-shaped card using Spellbinders nestabilities. Cloud DP is by Basic Grey, Shine on. 

Please check out the rest of the DT creations http://lollipopcrafts.blogspot.com/">here. Hope you can all play along! Have a wonderful day! 

Christmas Penguins...

Wow, feels like I haven't posted a project I've done for fun in awhile. Really don't know where the time goes! I've still been crafting though...trying to work on some Christmas gifts because it is literally right around the corner! Got this cute penguin stamp the other month when 'All that scraps' had their moving sale. I paper pieced the hearts using DP by My Mind's Eye - 12 days of Christmas as well as the ornament paper in the back.

Challenge: Sketch For You To Try

I know it's very late but I still wanted to share my swap cards for July!

Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend!

Lollipop Craft Challenge #85

Hello...today starts another challenge at Lollipop Crafts. This week our theme is 'Anything Goes'. Easy, right? :) Here's my creation...

I made a perpetual birthday book using Spellbinder nestabilities and a Sweet November fairwee stamp. I think these are good as gifts!

I hope you're all having a great summer even though it's almost ending, or may have already. I'm ready for some cool weather! :) Have a great Monday and please check out the rest of the DT creations here.

Happy Birthday Sony!

Hello! Today at Lollipop Crafts, it is my fellow DT member Sony's birthday! Here's the card I made in honor of her special day!

I love this cute Mimi image with her cupcake and it was my first time making a tent topper card! Slowly trying to make other types of cards! :O

Hope you have an awesome birthday Sony!

You blow me away...

Finally got to make a card using this cute PI girl. I paper pieced her out using Bo Bunny 'Alora' DP along with the rest of the card. Had fun using the twine with the buttons. Then I sponged the edges with Versacolor ink. Thanks for visiting!

Challenge: Crafty Catz Weekly Challenge - Anything Goes

Lollipop Crafts Challenge #84

Hello! Today starts another challenge week at Lollipop Crafts! Our theme this week is "Fun in the Sun", make a card/project with highlights of summer activities.

I made a card using a Pure Innocence girl making a sand castle on a hot summer day! Paper pieced her swim suit using dotted paper. Did the sand free hand by just ripping the top of the paper and made some dots using Copics. Put everything on the sand on pop dots to give some dimension.

Hope you can join us this week and check out the rest of the DT creations here. Have a great Monday!

Happy Birthday

Made a simple birthday card using some left over DP. (DCVW 'Sweet' DP) Got the inspiration from here. It was fun just using my 1" square punch and corner rounder. Thanks for visiting!

Challenge: Craft your passion - Anything Goes

Embroidery Thank You

Used some extra embroidery thread from my cross stitch projects to make this thank you card. Got the pattern from here. Maybe later when I get more time I'll try to do some other cute designs. Hope you're all having a great week so far!
