Happy Birthday

 

Hi everyone! Amy K. here today!!!

 

I know there are Neat & Tangled fans out there, right?  Well, have you checked out the newest challenge over at the Little Tangles blog?  There is a stamp set up for grabs to a lucky winner!  This challenge runs until Sunday, May 26th at 11:59 EST.  This is your chance to ink up those stamps and create!!  The challenge theme is Embellish It! 

 

I used the newest stamp set.....Across the Card.  Love this set.....using it makes for such a quick and simple but bold card!!  I added in some sequins as my embellishment!  The Summer Sun sequins are from Neat & Tangled and I embellished them with some Stickles for more added bling!

  

 

 

 

 

Now, we'd LOVE to see your take on this challenge!  Remember, you must link up your card by May 26th, at 11:59 EST.  Thanks for stopping by today!!



Star Confetti Birthday Card

Hello everyone! Nina here to share a star confetti birthday card!

There are various star sizes in the Sparkle and Shine stamp set - perfect for creating a confetti look. I used 3 ink colors and tried to stamp them in triangles for a random look. 

Then cut a slot to insert the craft pin:

Bling it up with some sequins from Neat and Tangled store: Mermaid Tale 

Thank you for stopping by! Happy Crafting!

Graduation Card, Includes a Printable

Hi, Jean here to share a graduation card you can customize with school colors. I’ve also got a downloadable printable for you as well. 

It’s the season for graduation ceremonies! I don’t know about you, but most of the store-bought cards I see are not my taste at all, so I decided to design a card that can be customized with one of the stripes from the the On the Strip 2 stamp set.

Here’s all you have to do:

• Download the .pdf file, which includes four card fronts with the sentiment and graduation cap.
• Print the file onto cardstock.
• Cut the cardstock into four card fronts.
• Trim the card front on all four sides so that the card base will be visible.
• Stamp stripes onto the card front in ink color of choice.
• Adhere the card front to the base.

Here's an example with navy blue stripes and a light-gray card base.

And another version with three gold stripes and a black card base.

Congrats to the graduates!

Hey, Girlfriend!

Hey Girlfriends ;) Danielle here.

I first wanted to thank you all for your tremendous support and excitement during last week's release! Your positivity is contagious, and while I can't respond to all comments I do read each and every one, and they always bring a smile to my face.

I apologize for the speed at which certain items sold out. I do my best to anticipate how popular particular items will be and stock accordingly, but every now and then I underestimate!  I have already placed a reorder for stamps. In the meantime please check with our friends at Simon Says Stamp as well as i {heart} papers, both carry a variety of Neat and Tangled now! All sequins will be restocked by weeks end!

How was your weekend? Ours flew by as usual. For all you mommies out there, I hope you enjoyed your special day!

I'm here to share a card I made a reeeeally long time ago for a publication call, but alas it was a reject! So now I get to share it with you all.  The colors and scallop pattern from the stamp remind me of the ocean, and now that the weather is warming I hear the beach calling :)

I stamped and white heat embossed the scallop pattern from Little Tangles on various colors of Hero Arts papers, cut them out, and adhered them to my card base. I then stamped the sentiment from Just Hello on a strip and popped it up on the card with some foam dimensional.

Hope your week is off to a great start!

May 2013 Release Day 3: Across the Card

For May release we have 3 new stamp sets and 4 new sequin colors! Yay! Each day 1 set and some sequins will be revealed, with all sets and sequins being available for purchase in the SHOP on NOW! Also, all sequin colors and styles have been restocked:)

Another something new: A few of our older sets will be on sale for $11 through Friday! (Fresh Blooms, Little Tangles, Little Bear, Swirly Twirly Tags, My Heart Sings)

Today I am here to introduce you to Across the Card! A 4x6 set that is the same concept as our very popular On the Strip series. Each stamp measures just over 5 1/2" to ensure complete coverage across your card, no worries about lining it up! Pair that convenience with everyday sentiments and you have an essential set! I apologize that there is no video, but the little point and shoot I usually film with is missing! (aka I'm sure one of the kids hid it somewhere!)

And here are your 4 new sequin colors! Some basics, some fun new colors!

Snow White

Black

Summer Sky

Red Raspberry

And now for some more amazing projects!
