Mom's Birthday Card

Today I finished Mom's Birthday card.... I think she's going to be 88...? I still have a few weeks to figure that out...

I've been following a new site I found and they have a once a month sketch for anyone to try.

So I decided to use the sketch from this month at  i(heart)2stamp site..check it out. Never did one of her sketches but liked this one so had to try it out.  I think it turned out pertty nice.

For the focal point I used the SU-Elizabeth stamp and did gold embossing then colored the flowers and leaves a little.

Here a close up, you can see some of the embossing and coloring too..... 

Here's the inside, I didn't do much with this, still may put a little something else in here just not sure what yet....

I know she will like this one... but then she's my Mom and she always likes everything so I don't know if she's the best person to ask... so how about you what do you think???

Embossing Folders

Hi Everyone!
Today I was working with my Embossing Folders and trying to see which one I though would look the best on my project.  So I did what I always end up doing I cut paper and try several to see which one I liked best....... Will you see where I'm going with this right???  I decided I was going to make a folder like I did for may Border and Corners so I could just pull it out and have a look.  
This is what I came up with, tell me what you think!

Here the first flap open.....

2nd flap open

3rd flap open......

4th flap open...

That's it...

To make a sample of each folder I just cut papers 2.5 x 3.75 and then embossed, sanded, put it in the folder and labeled it with company name, folder name, stock #.....

Hope you enjoyed this... I know I'm going to save myself a LOT of time with this.

Late Birthday........

Hi Everyone!!

We're all guilty of sending a late card for someones birthday, I know I am..... So I finally made a card to say Sorry!!

I used the same Dragonfly stamp from the Inkadinkado set Mindscapes-99121, and cut it out and then popped the wings up a little.  For the coloring I used my CTMH pens and then added some gold around the edge and spots on the wings and body too. 

Here you can see how I popped the wings up better and the Gold too. 

and this is the inside.

Will that's it... I'm going to take it easy for the rest of the day  and maybe work on card from the sketch on Jen's site here's here link....

Thanks for stopping by again!

Deep Sympathy

Hi Everyone!!

I'm doing much better this week with my hurt shoulder, it's still not working quit right but MUCH better!!  Thanks to all you girls that sent me Get Well wishes!!

Today I'm show a Sympathy card I did to look a little shabby... Hope I didn't overdo things with it since it is a Sympathy card.  I'll let you be the judge of that?

Here's the front, I used my :Hug Snug" Seam Binding for the first time and put some Glimmer Mist-Wheatfields on it and the card too.  I always liked the seam binding all the girls used on there sites and I finally made the plung when on of the gals I follow sent me the link, Thanks Glenda!

The Dragon Fly is from the Indadinkado stamp set Mindscapes-99121, I just colored it in using my CTMH markers. The border is a Martha Stewart called Raindrop. 

Here's a close up of my bow and border.....

and here's the inside, the saying is from the CTMH set called Best Wishes (C1318), then i used the Raindrop border punch again with a little scrap paper I had left over from the front.

I forget to mention I spunged all the edges of everything with Desart Sand too.

Will that's it for this one... I'll be posting another card I'm working on using the same Dragon Fly stamp.... maybe later today.

Thanks for stopping by again!
