Happy Birthday, Thank You, and Baby

Hi There,

Hope everyone is having a teriffic Tuesday. I wanted to share some cards I'd made. For me, even though I don't always know what I want to put on a card or the end result I want to have, I always enjoy the process. Card making is relaxing to me, even during the putting together phase.

I made this card for a friend who shared a day with me for my birthday. I like the way the card turned. I enjoy how everything seemed to come together. The pin was from an antique shopping store in Mount Dora FL. I wanted to incorporate it in the card.

I used some Iamroses flowers (which I absolutely enjoy using). I purchased so many, as a new card maker, I don't know how or when I'd possibly use them all. But I will enjoy using them along the way. The sentiment stamp is a JustRite stamp I found in a discount bin a while ago.  

Birthday Card
The birthday card is for a cousin. I'm so sorry I don't know what stamp I used. I had do the image twice. The first one I glittered and did not like it. It made the image look to heavy for the card. I used another Iamroses flower. I like the card.

Sympathy Card

This card was made with the paper as the primary item I liked. I saw this at Hobby Lobby. It was priced at clearance, but the sale price would have been cheaper. Since it was the last stack, I went ahead and bought it. I like every paper in the collection.

The baby shower card for a church member, my daughter (who does not like crafting) helped pick out the card design and embellishments. I wanted to use a clothespin in the design and used it to attach the sentiment, that was detachable.

 Just wanted to share some previous cards with you. Now I'm off to deciding which card challenge I want to enter. I need to create daily to perfect my cards.

Hope you all enjoyed the cards.

Have a God Blessed day,







Thank you card

Hi all,

It has been a long week, but I'm glad to be back home. The past weekend I went to my granny's funeral and it was as difficult as I thought it would be. An amazing and loving woman. I moved a few months ago and the new tenants were nice enough to bring mail that had still been delivered to the old address to our home yesterday. Thank God for kind people. Inside the stack of junk and magazines was this thoughtful card that was sent in April.

This was quite a nice surprise. The card is beautiful. It also has a bookmark (dream, imagine, create, inspire) attached that I will be using. I am enjoying my Stampin' Up products but want to use them a bit more. I like how the note is a pull out from the card and the card can be reused/resent. Thank you Cybil.



Just wanted to share my nice surprise I received in the mail.

Have a God blessed weekend.
