Relaxing Thoughts




I didn't really know what to title this post. This card just makes me think of a vacation, far far away - with nothing to worry about! The colors (although they didn't scan as well as I'd like) are a palette I just love. The papers are Amberley Grace and Willoughby from The Angel Company. The stamp set is Peace be Still - also from TAC. I used very light COPIC just to give it a subtle color. The ribbon I found at the Michael's dollar spot - how fun, huh? It is some type of burlap fiber.

More Birthday Cards!










Here are some more Birthday cards I designed over the past few days! These are the other three that will be offered at my class in January! Quick and simple - but I"m sure they'd bring a smile to the recipient's face! The BEE one and the BIRD one are both designed with stamp sets from The Angel Company. I think the stamp on the other card is Unity - but I can't remember for sure!

Masculine Happy Birthday




This is the second card that will be made at my January class - my Birthday Bonanza stamp a stack. The other one you have seen so far is Lucy's Cheese. Keep checking in the next few days - as I'll be posting ALL of the other cards from the class too!

This one is made with the beautiful Willoughby paper from The Angel Company. The image is from the Stampin Up set Yukon - not sure where I got the Birthday sentiment - I have so many! I highlighted the scenery with Earth Tone chalks.

Got Cheese?????????????



This mouse is just so darn cute! And the saying - well - gotta love that too! I am so glad I bought this set from The Angel Company before they closed! Background paper is from October Afternoon. I colored w/ my COPICS of course. The cheese was paper pieced for more dimension. You can't see it so much in the picture - but it pops a bit in real life.






Posts two days in a row - aren't you impressed!?!?!?!?

Happy Birthday!!!!!



So - I have made so many Christmas and Chanukah cards over the past two weeks - I decided to play in my craft room - and work on OTHER stuff! I love pink and green together - so when I found this yarn I just had to figure out something to do with it. I had fun making this card!

Projects for Fundraiser




So - I have been BAD BAD BAD........ I have been meaning to update my blog more frequently - but - just haven't done so. I'm not going to make excuses - rather just share! A department where I work is having a fundraiser craft sale - so I decided to put together some quick projects to sell. I had fun doing these magnetic calendar and post-it holders, corner bookmarks, and notepads. I am sharing a few of the projects here!
