Winter/Holiday Coffee Lovers Blog Hop!!

Posted on December 16, 2015 by justtyra

Hey guys!

When I saw the announcement that Coffee Loving Cardmakers would be a Winter/Holiday themed coffee lovers blog hop (say that three times FAST) I just knew I had to participate!

I won an Instagram contest sponsored by Elle’s Studio and the prize pack was chock full of goodies from Elle’s Studio Let’s Eat and Cienna collections. Combine that goodness with a throwback holiday stamp set from Elle’s Studio and a card was born:

Merry Christmas 2015 Card Elles Studio JustTyra

I super love it (is that even a sentence?)! I have followed Elle’s Studio for quite some time now and I think their collections are super fab! Thank you very much Elle’s Studio!

Check out the entire blog hop HERE.

Sending you off with crafty wishes and washi tape dreams!

Clique Kits Blog Share Featuring Carnival!

Posted on May 20, 2015 by justtyra

Hello It’s Tyra and today I’m finally sharing some of what I made with the Clique Kits May 2015 Kit, Carnival!

The challenge: Anything goes. Create whatever your heart desires and share!

I absolutely loved working with the May kit and I can say that it’s nearly gone!

The kraft cardstock and alpha letters featured in this month’s kit really inspired me to use more of what was once my favorite color. Kraft simply goes with everything. I’m in love with kraft again!

Amy Tangerine’s Rise and Shine patterned paper needed nothing else but a sentiment. So I used AlteNew’s Super Script set, featured in the Clique Cards Spring Edition. Speaking of the Spring card kit, I created cards from that lovely kit as well:

Thanks so much for stopping by! Check out the blog share list below and enjoy the hop!

Designing with….Chickaniddy!

Posted on April 9, 2015 by justtyra

Hello crafty friends? How are you? I am doing well. The husband and I are balancing work outside of the home with helping a pair of kindergarteners read, enjoying our little preschooler expand his vocabulary by leaps and bounds and taking every single chance we can to grill outside when the weather is nice (hugs to you, Spring).

I realize my posts have been infrequent and I apologize. But I have been super busy busting out (yes I said busting out) designs with some of the fabulous crafty goodness I have been fortunate to get my hands on.

Today I want to share some of the goodness I created featuring Chickaniddy’s Twirly Girly, Date Night and a little bit of Jolly Good. Those names tho’ (I need to ask my sister if I’m using 2015 slang appropriately.) Chickaniddy’s collection names are just fabulous! Here is what I have designed along with a sneak photo:

March Trends: Colors Green/Gray

March Trends: Circles

Two Lovely Cards to Share

Stop by tomorrow for some of my latest from Clique Kits!

As always, thanks so much for stopping by! xo, Tyra

Too Much Says Who?

Posted on December 10, 2014 by justtyra

This is my second post of the day. For my Coffee Lover’s Blog Hop Post click HERE!

Hi it’s Tyra and I’m here with a very special post! Today I’m sharing a card I created using an exclusive Sweet Stamp Shop set, “Sparkle and Shine,” offered in Clique Kit’s December Kit, Enchanted Meadow.

This set is no longer offered by the Sweet Stamp Shop, so be sure to check out Clique Kit’s December’s Kit. I am lucky to have created projects for both teams and it just so happens I have a extra Sweet Shop stamp set that I would LOVE to give away! Just leave a comment and your contact info and check back on next Tuesday, December 16th, Sweet Stamp Shop’s December Release, where I will share a new card created in celebration of the release and announce the lucky winner!

What a fun day on the blog! Thanks so much for stopping by! xo, Tyra
