Poppies Birthday

Hi Everyone!!
In just a few days it's going to be my Mom's 87th birthday..... so for her card I made here something she loves.... Poppies!!!!
First a close up of the front.


Here's a shot of both the front and inside...... Yes I had to make 2, I just loved how it turned out and know I'm going to use this again. ....


And here's a close up of the inside. I just restamped the poppies on the inside using Sweet Leaf green-CTMH. It's just enough to see but let me stamp my saying over the top of it too.


Will that's it for today.
This card cost 3.50/each, like anything hand made no two will be alike, maybe very close but can't promise.
Hope you Enjoyed!

Things used:
  • Inkadinkado/Poppy on wood block stamp
  • Cloud9 Design/Laughter stamp set.
  • Spellbinders/ Small Labels, Lattice.
  • Stampin'Up/Label punches, and Watercolor crayons-Earthy Elements and Bold brights.
  • Close-to-my-Heart/Ink pads
  • Ribbon/From my stash???
  • Creative Memories Papers/ Yellow, Black, Brick.

    Hope you Enjoyed!!

Ribbin from Spools to Cards!!

Hi All!!!
Today I finished taking my ribbin from spools and putting them on cards. I got the idea from Becca on the Amazing Paper Grace site, here's the link right to her ribbon storage solution. http://www.amazingpapergrace.com/amazing-ribbon-storage/
So when I went to Micheles yesterday on a wonderful FUN day with a good friend I got some of the mat board and cut just like she said... 2.5" x 2". I used one drew from and 8x11 storage unint I already had. So far I LOVE it... see below.
This pic shows all the spools I was able to get rid of and how all the ribbon fits with room for more!! Yea..


Here's a better look at the draw. In Becca's she used the larger draws and was able to get 4 rows, but for now this will work just fine for me.

Can you believe there are 60-ribbon cards here, and room for more????
How you enjoyed today!
