HUGS AND KISSES

I THOUGHT THIS IMAGE WOULD MAKE A GOOD THANK YOU CARD. SOMETHING DIFFERENT WITH THE CIRCLE SHAPE. THE IMAGE IS FROM SQUIGGLEFLY
I MADE A SET OF 5 FOR MY FRIEND TO GO WITH THE COCOA MIX I MADE AS PART OF HER CHRISTMAS GIFT. I USED LIQUID APPLIQUE ON THE MARSHMALLOWS.

Blue Christmas


I love these colors together. Red and blue for christmas? Who would have thought. Think this little girl from Pollycraft is so cute. Used chunky glitter on bottom of dress. Layout is from Mojo Monday a while back. Colors are so bright and different for the Christmas season.

With Sympathy

This is an awesome stamp that my Divine Secret Sister over on Splitcoaststampers sent me. I love it. I used it to make this sympathy card for my husbands grandma who recently lost her brother. It was part of a set. There is another stamp of a little girl holding a pot of flowers that I have an awesome idea for. Ever heard of "flower soft"? No? Well.......stay tuned.

"You can deal with anything if you have the right stamps" love that sentiment. I sent this one to my DSS. This is a digital image that I found at Sassy Studio Designs Love this paper. It came as 4 - 6x6 sections on a 12x12 piece of background paper. All coordinating. Makes for quick card assembly.

I MADE THIS CARD FOR A FRIENDS ANNIVERSARY. MY NEW ADDICTION SEEMS TO BE DIGI STAMPS. WELL.......ALONG THE WAY I STUMBLED UPON A WEBSITE THAT'S ACTUALLY A COLORING SITE FOR KIDS. THEY HAVE TONS OF COLORING PAGES THAT CAN EASILY BE RESIZED AND COLORED LIKE DIGI STAMPS. ANYWAY, THAT'S WHAT I DID. THERE ARE MANY OTHER PRECIOUS MOMENTS IMAGES ON THE SITE AS WELL. I CUT "LOVE" WITH MY CRICUT. A SILVER ORGANZA RIBBON ON THE TOP RIGHT AND 3 SMALL PEARLS ON THE BOTTOM LEFT. NEEDLESS TO SAY I FOUND MANY OTHER IMAGES TO MAKE CARDS WITH. THEY WILL BE POPPING UP ON MY BLOG SOON. SORRY THE IMAGE IS A LITTLE HAZY. MY BATTERY IN MY CAMERA SO I HAD TO USE MY PHONE.

EASIEST ONE SHEET WONDER




































































WHEN I BOUGHT THIS PAPER MY ORIGINAL PLAN WAS TO CUT IT UP AND USE PART OF IT FOR A LITTLE BOYS BIRTHDAY CARD. BUT AFTER I STARTED I THOUGHT "I WONDER HOW MANY CARDS I CAN MAKE WITH THIS ONE SHEET?" SO THIS IS WHAT I CAME UP WITH. 21 CARDS FROM ONE SHEET OF PATTERNED PAPER. WHAT DO YOU THINK?

Happy 1st Birthday


Mom asked me to make a card for a little girl who was turning one. This is what I came up with. I love the girly paper base. The "one" and "1" were cut with my cricut. You gotta love pink and brown together. They go together like chocolate and peanut butter, cookies and milk, pizza and...... You get the idea :-)

Forever.......


This was a technique challenge on splitcoast. Something different. I used the stampin up emboss folder for this one. Forever is cut out using my cricut. The butterflies are ..... again.....Martha Stewart punch. I know, I know, enough with the butterflies already. Sorry, I have some kind of obsession. Yes, I used the rhinestones on the center of the butterflies. Colored with prisma pencils and Gamsol.

Christmas Wreath


Trying to get into the Christmas spirit. Still in summer mode even though the leaves here are already changing. I suppose I should make some Halloween and Thanksgiving cards first ......but I just love this digital stamp from Squigglefly. Used Prisma pencils and Gamsol to color this one. I used crystal lacquer on the berries.

Welcome Home


Mom needed a "new house" card and I had seen this pattern on splitcoast and I have been waiting to use it. I love the way it turned out. It was time consuming but pretty easy. It was compliments of Cynthia Snoddy's template which I can't seem to find now. Good thing I print every template I like. The windows are made with vellum and I used my scor-pal to put the lines on them. Tiny brads for door knobs. It opens in the middle.

I've always wanted to make a card like this with squares but had trouble getting my squares the same size. Well, thanks to the Cuttlebug and spellbinders nestabilities templates I can make them the same exact size. Bright and colorful card.
