Saturdays With LeAnn

I have had a great time choosing some beautiful projects to share with you this Saturday.  I can’t believe the amazing creativity that pops up in our social media feeds each and every day!  Today I have chosen these wonderful projects for all of you amazing and crafty friends to enjoy.  Sit back and take it all in! 🙂

You Are Beautiful By Alicia McNamara

I would like to share this exquisite layout by Alicia McNamara.  Lisa added several different stamps and embellishments to make this very striking layout!  What a beautiful way to preserve a special photo. Look at the beautiful layering that Alicia achieved.  I am so impressed with her skilled techniques that really give her layouts a pop.

Alicia added fun wooden flourishes and plenty of rhinestone swirls which give this a fabulous sparkle along with a fun, girly feeling and wonderful dimension.  The Kaisercraft Leaf Die is perfect for using as a space filler.  Alicia inked the edges and curled them up a little. Grab your darling photos and get started!  To see more of Lisa’s projects, come along with me over to Time To Create. Alicia will surely inspire you!

Happy Birthday By Betsy Veldman

As many of you know, I am a big fan of anything that is done with watercoloring techniques.  You can never go wrong trying out several types of watercoloring.  The best yet is that your project will always look beautiful and there will never be a mistake when creating it.  Each individual piece will have it’s own personality and charm.  This particular background was watercolored and then stamped with the Alphabet Soup stamp set.

What a fun card to send out to that special person with a fall birthday.  If you haven’t tried watercoloring, I challenge you to do so.  It is so fun and will create some amazing projects.  Click here so I can take you over to Paper Scissors Superheros blog.  You will find so many wonderful and fun projects created by Betsy.  You won’t want to miss out on her inspiration and techniques.

Miss You By Virginia Lu

Isn’t it so satisfying to create a collage card?  The beautiful art of collage gives the impression of an artist’s eye and the imagination of working overtime. The colors are so beautiful, but it is the collection of stamps that truly make it extraordinary!  Virginia has created such a great mix of images and textures in this card.

This card will take a little longer than most cards do, but its absolutely worth it!  You will need to allow more time to add layers and colors for each step.  Click here and I will escort you over to Virginia’s blog where she will give you her process on how she created such a beautiful card.  This will make you want to jump right in and create one of your own handmade treasures!  Cards are a priceless gift and will be love and treasured by the person receiving them.
