Phindy's Place


I found a new site for digi's. I was on PCP and discovered Phindy's Place. Really cute images!! I love the top one for St. Patty's Day and I used the bottom one for a 1st Birthday card. I used the paper piecing technique on that one. you print the image on a piece of patterned paper and then cut out the part you want to piece and viola instant cuteness....LOL.

ohhh la la


I love how these turned out. We got a co-worker a gift certificate to Victoria Secret and I remembered seeing this template at StampOwl's Studio and on Splitcoast Stampers, and I thought how appropriate for such a gift. The bra is on the front of the card and the undies are on the back. This paper created the perfect look. I wish I could be a mouse in the corner when she opens this card :-)

THANK YOU

SEVERAL WEEKS BACK I HAD POSTED A CARD TO THANK MY IN-LAWS FOR OFFERING US THEIR TIME SHARE IN HAWAII. WELL, THE TRIP WAS ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL!! MUCH NEEDED R&R. WHILE WE WERE THERE WE HAD A PICTURE TAKEN OF US AT THE TIME SHARE BY ONE OF THE EMPLOYEES AND WE BOUGHT A PICTURE FRAME TO PUT IT IN. WE GAVE THEM THE PICTURE AS A THANK YOU.....AGAIN FOR THE TRIP. I MADE THIS CARD TO GO WITH IT. THE IMAGE IS FROM THE DIGI SHACK. I FOUND THE LITTLE BOTTLE AT A JEWLERY STORE IN HAWAII. I PUT SAND FROM WAIKIKI BEACH IN THE BOTTLE. IT'S HARD TO SEE IN THE PHOTO BUT I PRINTED TWO IMAGES AND COLORED THEM THEN I CUT ONE OUT AND PUT IT ON TOP OF THE OTHER ON POP DOTS TO GIVE IT SOME DIMENSION. TFL :-)

Happy Valentines Day








I got the two images on the top two cards from pollycraft. I removed the center of the metal tags on the bottom and put valentine paper behind them instead. The charm hanging down says LOVE. Hope everyone has a great day!! I have a few more cards to post later.

Monkey Business

This is a digi stamp that I found free.....somewhere. I appologize but I don't know where. I think it's so cute. Decided to make it into a Valentine by putting the sentiment in his hand. I've fallen behind in my goal of posting all my Valentines but I still have tomorrow. I've really gone crazy this year with Valentines - they are really fun to make :-)

Precious Love



OK, I'm a little behind. I have a ton of Valentine cards. I'll try to post them all in the next couple days. This is a digi I found at Pollycraft. Colored with Prisma colors and Gamsol. The card is a premade pack from Studio G. I used a Stampin up punch to add the pieces to the bottom. Pollycraft is one of my favorite digi sites.

Happy Birthday Friend

I made this for a friend's Birthday. It's a My Favorite Things digital stamp. It originally had ribbons on the girls shirts but I whited them out for the card. I'm going to do some Breast Cancer Awareness cards with the ribbons still on too. I love MFT!! I hope they get more digis.

HUGS AND KISSES

LOVE THIS LITTLE GIRL FROM POLLYCRAFT. ONE OF MY FAVORITE DIGITAL STAMP COMPANIES. THIS PAPER IS FROM TARGET. THINKING OF SENDING THIS ONE TO MY NIECE. I MADE A COPY OF HER LEGS AND CUT THEM OUT ANDPUT THEM ON A POP DOT SO IT LOOKS LIKE SHE IS SITTING ON THE FRAME WITH HER LEGS HANGING OVER THE EDGE.

Valentine

I love Precious Moments (as I think I've mentioned:-) I thought this was the perfect "Valentine" image. Would work for Anniversary too. The background paper is Target and I punched the flowers out with my flower punch. Here's where I got the image. I used Prisma pencils and Gamsol for coloring. Thanks for looking!!!

Coffee Anyone?


I made this for a girl I work with - for her Birthday. She loves coffee and when I saw this card I thought it was perfect!!! I got the template here. Could be used for coffee, tea or cocoa. I got the little packets of instant coffee at Target on clearance. They are "Starbucks" I guess you can buy them there too. Then I took a can of Maxwell House International Coffee. I covered it with paper and decorated with Hero Arts stamps. I decorated the Stampin Up box and filled it with coffee, caramel and rum candy. It was fun to make and she loved it.

Masculine

I needed a "farewell" card for one of the guys at work. I'd seen metal embossed before and wanted to give it a try. I used my cuttlebug. The brads on the four corners look like screws. I sanded the background paper with sandpaper for a rugged look.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

Did you know that "My Favorite Things" stamp company has digital stamps too?? This is one of them. I just visited the site the other day and they have added more. I'm not patient enough to wait for a stamp to come in the mail but with digital stamps it's almost instant! Pay and download. Beautiful!! I adore MFT so when I saw that they went digi my debit card started smokin'......

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.
