Humming Bird Gift Set

Hi Everyone!

It's going on a week now since I started this Humming Bird Gift Set. 

Will I finished it today!!!!!

YEA!!!!!

Here's a picture of all the cards, yes they are all the same but for different occations like Birthday, Thank You, Hi, Just because...My girlfriend asked me to make her a set all the same like this and it went well as long as I as able to work on them but I had things come up and was delayed a few times. 

But there finished now!!

No this is not a card......... it's the box I made to hold the cards......Neat Ha?

Which I could say I though this up all by my lonesome but no..... I got it from a blog I watch daily called

Amazing Paper Grace by Becca.  All the instructions and mesurments can be found on  the Our Daily Bread Designs web sit... Check it out you will love it!  I did change mine a little to fit the card size I made mine one inch less on one side...

Anyways  I decorated the outside very much the same as the cards with a few things different. 

Here's a peek inside......the ribbon will tie it closed with a nice bow.

And here's the inside with all 6 cards and envelops.... not bad Ha?

Know I'm going to be using this card box again... love the look and it's really very simple to do too.

Thanks for stopping by again!

Hope you Enjoyed!!

LUCKY !!? Flippin' Card

Morning Everyone!!

I tried something NEW for me today!!!  I first saw these "Flippin' Stamps" at the 2009 CHA show in Orland last year and didn't get any but was aways disappointed that I didn't.  Will a few weeks ago I found them again and boy was I excited  http://www.lapashe.com/.  Below is the card from one of the new stamps sets I ordered.

On the front I used a EK Success border punch with Red paper behind it and then I used a hole punch to punch out the red so the black would show thru.  The black ribbon is just from my stach who know where it's from. The back ground paper is from a SU set I think it's still being sold, really cute with check's, domino's, and all kinds of card shapes. Looks cute with this BINGO Winner!!

Here's a close-up of the front, you can see I used dimensionals behind just the head and arms...

And here's the inside!!!! See how when I cut her out then put her to the edge of the front so she's hanging off then you can see the Black inside of the card behind her when it's closed. 

The saying is;

It's not the taking part,

It's the Winning that counts.

Again I used the same border punch and background paper too.

To write on the inside I'll use a White Gel pen.

Will that's it for today!! Tell me what you think of my Flippin' Stamp set, I'll have more from time to time.

The size of the completed card is 5.5 x 4.25 and will fit a A2 Envelope.

This card with decorated envelop cost 3.50/each, and like anything hand made no two will be alike, maybe very close but can't promise.

Thanks for stopping by again!

Hope you Enjoyed!!

 

Just For Fun

Hi Everyone!!!

Will here's my Manly Card for August,,,,, I think I missed last months manly card...sorry!

So today I need a Manley Birthday card and this is what I came up with. 

I think it turned out pretty good... I used Creative Memories Red and Black, and then SU paper for the background with the Poker Chips and the JUST FOR FUN also came from the same SU paper pack, I just cut the words out of the paper and edged them in black ink.  Now the King of diamonds came from a SU stamp set that I borrowed from a stamping friend years ago and stamped a sheet of the cards to use as need... Always wanted to buy this set but just never did....

Here you can see how I colored in the King of Diamonds with markers and used Red and Gold Liquid Pearls to set off his trim and crown.

The black ribbon came from my stash, have no idea where it came from... Don't usually do ribbon on my Manly Cards but his just needed something so it got a little ribbon with a knot.

This is the inside, I used a EKSuccess border punch at the bottom and then colored in the black.... then added a strip of the Poker Chips paper next.  The sentiment came from Fiskars-Make a Wish Quotes set, and the long Happy Birthday came from a CTMH Happy Birthday (C1257) set.

The size of the completed card is 5.5 x 4.25 and will fit a A2 Envelope.

This card with decorated envelope cost 3.00/each, and like anything hand made no two will be alike, maybe very close but can't promise.

Thanks for stopping by again!

Hope you Enjoyed!!

 

Flowers

Morning Everyone!!!

Today I'm in the mood for Flowers.... it's been sooooo HOT here that I wanted to do something that would make me feel Cool. 

This is a close up of the bottom part of the card.  I used Spellbinders Fancy Tags for the Happy Birthday, and the Cuttlebug folder Bird & Swirls (37-1609) on the yellow paper behind it.  And then across the bottom I used an EK-success border punch, can't remember the name of it, which they would have the name on there punches along with the pictures.....

Here is a close up of the flowers... Love all the colors..

The stamp set is from SU-Bloomin' Beautiful, it has another flower that is just beautiful too, along with a cute little bee in flight and two sayings...I colored these with SU-Watercolor Crayons and a Aqua pen....

Love the look... AND in the middle of each flower I put a drop of Liquid Pearls.

Here is the whole thing....

The Flowers are on white card stock and I used Spellbinders Labels One to cut it our, and then SU-Dimensional to pop it up.

The same border punch was used across the top too, just a different color paper. 

and here's the inside....

The saying inside is from Cloud9 (Simple Thoughts-Happy Birthday, I love all of them in this set and there's 12 with other little goodies too.

This was another fun card for me.....

The size of the completed card is 5.5 x 4.25 and will fit a A2 Envelope.

This card with decorated enevelop cost 3.50/each, and like anything hand made no two will be alike, maybe very close but can't promise.
