Gold Christmas Tree

This one was fun to make. Metal embossing on the star and the brad on the inside. I got the pattern from somebody - sorry can't remember who - I tried to find it last night. Anybody know who? Easy and fun to do.

TFL!!

Blossom

I just love this one - the stamp is a fav; the paper is great; and the look is just simple.

For You

Iris Folding

This is one of the cards we did in card class. I did have trouble finishing this one. Major mental block.

Christmas Card Holder

I made this to hold the cards I made for my mom.

Falling Star

Sparkling stars are one of my favs for Christmas.

Flower Pretties

When I started this card, I had no idea that it would end up like this. I really like it.

Joy

When I saw this stamp, I HAD to have it. Yes, it was the 'joy' part! (teehee)

Seasons Greetings

I got my order from SU. Love the new paper & new stamp set! I think I need to put a star on top of the tree, tho.

Nesties!!!!!!

Yep!! This is my first card with my new set of scallop circle nestibilities. WaaHoo!!! I love em!

Burgundy Bursts

I love the pearls. I don't do much free hand drawing, but this looks nice.


Thanks for visiting!

Snow Storm

That's what this green paper reminded me of so I used that theme for this card. I dotted lots of sparkles (can see them better in real life of course) to simulate snow. Does it work? Thanks for visiting.

New Blog

Hey! Check out this new blog I found iralamija. She's fantastic; more feminine than me and creative.

Bloomin' Beautiful

I love this set. It's simple and serene. My DD gave this card to her new bus driver.

Thanks for visiting.

It's crazy

time!

Hope you enjoy!

Amazing

I did these ALL last night. I guess I had a major creative streak. These are going with my calendar that I'm making for a Christmas present and I have more to do. I hope the next ones go as quickly. Enjoy!

And More......

These are what my friend Sandy did. And she's a beginner!!

S'More

Cards - not candy!

Thanks for looking!

Hi!

Had a card making day with some friends. Here's what we did.

Stay tuned, there's more to come.

Thanks for visiting.

OMG!!!!!

I can't believe it's been this long since I last posted. Where has the time gone?

Here's a new card I've done recently. Got new stamps so I had to stamp! I still have some sets that I need to break open. I've been busy quilting this summer - you know - you get the bug, you gotta do!! Right?

Black and white with just a touch of color is simple yet so dramatic. The butterfly is sparkled and the o in you has a sparkled brad.

Hope you enjoy.

M I A

I've been super busy but I haven't forgot y'all. I've got some cards to post - please check in later.

Card Holder

The color of the bottom of the box is actually gray. There's a pearl ex-ed flourish under the flower. Thanks for looking.

Monochromatic

I made this one in my last card class. My SU demo is so crafty and she comes up with the neatest creations. This one I veered a little off of her creation - I made the background paper. There is glitter glue in the middle of the flowers and in the middle of the swirls. I think these colors really look great together.

Happiness

Love these colors; love the paper; love the rub on and the pretties and the flowers. Okay, I guess I love it!

Amazing

I made this for my DD's birthday. That would be why I haven't posted for a while. Sorry. I had nine girls, 8, 9 & 10 year olds for this bash and then six for a sleep over. It was a BLAST!!!!! I forgot how much fun girls can have.

Anyways, here I am back to my fav color - purple! I found the strip paper at Michaels, as well as the ribbon - the rest is SU. It was the ribbon that inspired me - one of those 'gotta have's.

I have more to post. I just got my order in, so I will get right on those! Thanks for visiting.

For My Mother In Law

Sending these to my MIL for mommy's day. I got the template for the frame from a magazine and had to try it. I had fun doing them.

Thanks for visiting.

Our Baby

Marvalous Mauve

I totally cased this one - sorry can't remember who or where. I love it tho.

A Little Hasty

Okay - I guess I jumped the gun on that last post - winter is not quite done yet! Yuck!! What a snowstorm!! So, I bundle up and get creative.

Bye Bye Frosty

For awhile anyways! One good thing about winter is that it brings some of the most beautiful scenery. I love frost on the trees.

Happy Hellos

Here's my shot at primary colors. This is not in my comfort zone, but I think it turned out okay! Surprised me.

Thanks for looking.






SU cardstock, ribbon, stamps and ink; a piece of plaid paper I picked up somewhere.

Flowers, flowers, everywhere

I can hardly wait until I can plant some flowers! I've got spring fever reeeaaal bad! I guess that's why I've been doing flowers lately. I hope you like this flower card.
I just booked a flight for my mom and I to go on a holiday. We haven't been on one for a long time, so I thought it was about time. We are going to be away the last week in May. I'm looking forward to it.

Spring Fever

Embrace Life

I decided I needed to do a different color combo as I'm getting too comfortable in the colors I've done. Not real crazy about this one.

Tried my hand at a bit of coloring again, even though it doesn't look it. Just a touch on the leaves and stems. Highlighted the CS sides, added ribbon and popped up the saying.

Please leave a message as I would really like to hear from you.

Thanks for visiting.

Lilac Wild Rose

I got this set and here's what I did with it. I love to do the two step stamping (thanks to my Thing a ma Jig). You can't see it very well, but I put some micro beads in the center of the flower. It jazzes it up a bit.

Thanks for visiting.

CS: Lovely Lilac, Elegant Eggplant, White, Old Olive
Ink: same plus Certain Celery
Embellishments: Lilac Rhinestone Brads, Fairy Tale ribbon, white Taffeta ribbon, Micro Beads
and my super duper Cuttlebug embossing.
