Card Book for Cora

Guess What???
I've finished Cora's Card Book.... YEA!
I hope she likes it... I changed the way you close this one, I like this too because it lays out of the way when open and allows for the book to expand too, check it out.

Back Cover.

Many of the envelops are very similar to the first Card Book I did but like anything handmade there are some changes or differences... I try to make everything I do a little different for you. Like on this one I changed the way the book is closed, I used ribbon and elastic to pull over a large button on the front cover.  It's different but very cute with the ribbon over the elastic. 
Book with 6-Compartments (cards not included) 20.00.
Most cards I make are 3.00 or 3.50 each depending on detail work.
Like anything hand made no two will be alike, maybe very close but can't promise.


Hope you enjoyed!

Let's go Biking!!!


This week I've been working on this new stamp set I got from SU... It's called Pedaling Past, so cute! 
I think they can be used for young and old alike, see what you think. 
This first shot is of all three cards together.


This is a close up of the front.

And here's the front with the envelope.

and this is the inside.

This is a close-up of the second card,

The front view of the second card with envelope.

Close-up of the third card.

Front veiw with the envelope of the third card.

and the inside of the third card. 

Each one is just to cute, I like them all, and I like how cute the envelopes look too.
I'll be selling these for $3.00/each with envelope. Or a Set of 3 for $8.00 with envelope.

Hope you Enjoyed!

Card Book One

Hi Everyone!!!!!!!!
Wait till you see what I've been working on the last week...........
Here's the first Pic...... Can you tell what it is yet?????
Will it's where you open the Card Book....yes I said Card Book.  I'm always showing you my cards and sometimes I show you box's I make to put My cards in... will today I'm showing you a Book I made to store your cards.  And I bound it all together using my Bind-It-All tool.  Just wait till you see how CUTE it turned out!

Here's a close up of the front!

This is the front cover.

Each page I'll show you a view of the book completely Open.

Then I'll show you a shot of the page itself. 
This one is for your Thank You Cards so I named it Thanks!
And you can list things on the front of each.

This is a shot of where you store your cards. 
See the flap on the right is open......
Yes it's an envelop!!!
Each envelop is 6 x 9 inches. Since most of my cards measure 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 they will fit perfect!

This is the next one of the book open.

It's for Sympathy Cards.

And the next open

It's for Manly Cards and Manly Birthday Cards.

And the next one open.

Yep your guessed it, it's for Girly & Girly Birthday Cards.

and the next one open

This one is for This & That, any special occasion you need Cards for.

And the Last but not Least.........

It's for Bank Cards.. A MUST have...

This was such a Fun project for me.  I made if for a close friend of mine that needed a Gift for a friend of hers as a Big Thank You for all the things she dose for her.... She wants me to add some cards too.... Now who would not just LOVE receiving a gift like that????
