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!!

Wedding Shower

Morin' Everyone!!
Today I'm posting one of 2 Wedding shower cards I making..... One is for my Mom to send and the one she dose not pick will be the one I send.... :)
Here's a shot of the front and the envelope in the back too....
The image is by Flourishes-Wedded Bliss set  and the True Love is from Flourishes-Happily Ever After set.  I used some Stickles Rock Candy on the skirt and after it dried I put some SmoochGlitz-Starlight over it to make it sparkly. I also used the SmoochGlitz around the white image so it would pop off the black better.... thou I not sure it show very well in the pic. 
Oh and the background paper Clear Translucent Sheets by The paper company (I love this stuff, it's a little heaver then velum but has the same affect and holds up better I think)  is embossed with Victoria and then I lightly rubbed Stampin' Up Encore!- Silver over it, a little trick but OK... I also cut the bottom with a MFT border die. 

This side view you can see the layers and how I made the skirt puffy along with the stone on the ring finger too!!!

Not sure if this angle will show it better or not....

and here's the inside, the verse came from Cloud 9 Simple Thoughts-Love collection. I used the same MFT fishtail die to cute out the saying and the black and then just cut the sides off the white so it would show.  I also put SmoochGlitz-Starlight around the white. The cute little things in he corners are from the same Flourishes stamp set-Wedded bliss.

Hopefully later today I'll be able to finish the other card and post it too....
See Ya!

Pen / Marker Holder

Hi Everyone!!!!
Will I'm in the clean up and organize mood.... Don't ask me why, but I've been trying to get my Dies so I can find them and then I had my markers in 2 or 3 places so I've been saving Green Bean cans to make a holder... I know with all the pen holders out there what am I doing... I just could not find one I liked so until I do this will do... Why pay for something that I'm just going to make do with....
This is where I've been keeping my CTMH markers... it's alright but putting them into them little holes is a pain and it scrapes off the writing so can't see the color name on some.....

 
This is my work in progress........

 Here it is loaded up with all the different kinds of pens I have... I'm thinking of adding a few more cans....

Here's a side view...

And here's the tower with just a few things in it like my blending pens, aqua pen, tweezers, knife and plenty of room to add other STUFF........

Would love to know how you store you pens and markers... let me know!

Flowers......

Hi Everyone!!
Today I'm posting a card I made at the beginning of May I think but never got around to posting it... When I first made it I was not happy with the colors... but the more I looked at it I grow to love it... So I finished it off a though I would share with you.
I can't remember for the life of me where I got this stamp but for some reason I think it was one I bough from someone that had used it and wanted to sell some off.... 
Anyway I LOVE the large size of it and how it fills the front of the card... the only bad part if you want to call it a bad part is all the coloring it takes, so I don't think I'll be making any sets with this beautiful stamp....  
I first did my coloring and then used the "Grace's Frame" embossing folder, then I just colored between the lines the folder made..... I love this look and got the idea from a VERY talented gal that I just love to visit Leslie blog.  She has changed her life recently but still dose some card and I so enjoy my visits to her blog.
I did not show the inside but I used white and embossed it with the same frame and left it blank so I could use it for anything....

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!"

Thank YOU !

Hi Everyone!


It has been a long time since I have been able to post anything. As I wrote in my last post back in May, my Dad had taken a fall and I was there for him and my Mom thru his healing... Then he took a turn for the worst and passed away on July 2nd. I can only say he was very special to me and though I hate that he's gone I know his suffering is over and with God now. Dad was blind for many, many years and now he is looking down on us and smiling because he can see all of us.
I just cannot say any more......
Today I am posting a group of "Thank You" cards I made, I had no idea how many people would come or send cards and flowers, and I was very surprised!

 If you look closely you can see that I used a different embossing folder on the white background for each card and two different tags too, but all the rest is the same.

Here's a close up of the layering. I popped the white background up and also the tag.

On the inside I made very simple with a new stamp I got from Serendipity Stamps. 

Will that's it for me today.
I hope to be posting regulerly again so hope you come back.
Keep watching!
