With Age......

Hi All...

Today I'm posting the card I finished that I was talking about in last weeks blog.

This is the new stamp I started with....I had pick out my papers but had not put anything together yet...

 

Will here's what I came up with...remember I said I had stamped it kind of low on my paper and when I went to cut it out using the die I wanted it was a little too low... will this was how I got around that.  I just moved it down to the very bottom as if that was just how I wanted it to be.....te he.....

 

Here's a full front view, I think it worked out just fine....?

 

and here's how I dressed the inside.... love that saying ;)

 

The main stamp was by Ai-Art impressions, and the saying came from CTMH...the punch on the inside was a Martha Stewart border, and the die was by Spellbinders. If you want any detail info just let me know and I'll be glad to get it for you.

Today I needed a BD card for a younglady... and this is what I made....

I've had this stamp set by Flourish's for some time now but had never used it,,, will when I saw it agin I just had to give it a try.   I stamped it on Watercolor paper and did my coloring with Memento's markers.. this was an all first for me the stamp set and using just the markers to color with... but I do like the result and think I'll be trying it again...

and this is the inside.... I kept it simple too...

I frog-got

Hi There,
The last couple of days I've been working on a few belated BD cards.... I used the same stamp, just colored them differently and used some of the same paper and some different paper for the two cards....
First here's a quick look at them both.....

 Now here's the first one I made.......is he not just sexy looking.... in is green with yellow spots and teal belly.... just love thoes eyes.....

 and this is the inside.......

Now this little cutie was just the color of a little girl frog to me....don't ask me why......So I used pinks and reds, and a bow too for a more girly look.... this pic looks a little washed out but it's really much brighter.

and the inside.......

That's it for me today...
See you next time !!!!

Border Cards

Back on 4-21 I posted one of these cards, the one in the center as "Black & White".  I like the border look so much I though I would try it with differnt colors and this is that I came up with.
A green and white and the yellow and brown...
All three are Birthday Cards too.

And here's the inside of one, all three are the same....

Black & White Birthday

Hi Everyone!

Today I'm posting a card I saw somewhere but can't find the blog to give her credit (Sorry!) So if you stop by to look I hope you don't mind, I went back to try and find it but had no luck.

The 2 borders I used were both Martha Stewart border punches, the black one is called Woodland Branch, have used this one allot by it self and was having trouble getting it to cut all the way thru in one spot... I did the trick with tin foil and wax paper but it did not help with this one..... the border on the white is called Pansy and this is really the first time I used it... I did not have the corner punch for either one so I just made the ribbon extend down over the corner where it's messed up... I do like the look of this and hope to use this again.  The flower stamp is from Serendipity Stamps...

 Here's a closer look at the borders.....

 

And here you see the flowers better.....

and then the inside.....

I colored the flowers with SU-crayons and then used Adirondack espresso in the middle.

Will that's it for me today...

I'm fighting a headache and just can't shake it... I think it's the poopy weather we're having.

Wedding Shower 2

Hi Again!!

Will Here's the Second card I was talking about in my previous post.....

I kind of made this one a CAS card in that the only thing popped up is the tag.. I used brown Card stock for the base card and then a pretty pattern paper I had a piece left from something.... then I used my MS border punch and put some green ribbon behind it.  I use a Flourishes stamp from the Happily Ever After set on the front.

Here's a close up of the Fancy Tag-2 set I used and put some Smooch-Gold Lame on the edges, and the MS-Garden Trellis border punch with the green ribbon behind it.

and here's the inside with the same border and a small piece of the same background paper behind it....

The saying is from MFT-Dearly Sentimental about Chocolate set.

Will that's it... let me know which one you like the best... My Mom already picked the Black & White one, so I'm going to use this one... I told her I'll leave them both with her till tomorrow in case she changes her mind,,,again... which she already did a few times... TeHe!!

Sweet Birthday Wishes !!!!

Last night I finished up this card that our neighbor wanted for his niece, she's turning 19 I think... so hope this card hits all the right buttons. It's PINK, it's prissy, and it's spunky on the inside too!

You really cant tell but the frosting is done up with Liquid Pearls and then I sprinkled glitter on it while it was still wet.  Looks really good but cant tell from my pics. 

I even stamped a little Cupcake on the envelope too!

Here's a side view so you can see the layers.....

and of course the inside... I just LOVE this saying;

Be the kind of Woman

that when her feet hit the floor each morning

the devil says,

"Oh crap, She's up!"

Mom's Mother's Day Card

Hi Everyone!

I know I'm EARLY but want to show you the card I made my Mom for Mother's Day.

It's one of the Calenders I've been making but for hers I put in all the family dates and there's still plenty of room for her to add others too!

You know me I had to fancy up the front....

and here's a closer look.......

And the inside.... I did the hanger part a little different here. 

I left the calender part lose from the fold down so I could write a message under it...

Like the Springy look of this one, and know she will too!! (you know Mom's love everything we do)

I'd love to have you!!!

Summertime.... and the livin' is easy

Hi Everyone!!

Will I finished my box for the Summertime cards I made a few weeks ago....

Check this out!

 I love how it turned out...

I had to cut down my size some because these cards are 3.5 x 6 so everything need to be changed some, but it turned out nicely I think!

Here's a pic of it closed and tied with a bow.....

Here's one of 4 cards I had made... If you'd like to see the other 3 cards just go back a few week to see them all!

As Always,
