A co-workers wife is due soon, so I volunteered to create a card. I hope there is no disappointment. They are not sure if they will have a boy or a girl so I did bright colours in gender neutrals. I am still without my tripod…. I know get over it already. Anyway my card portrait is not as good as it should be and does not show the ultimate cuteness of this card. We have a few staff to sign the card so I am leaving the inserts loose as the baby pin buttons are not going to be very easy to write over.

Supplies: Green and yellow cardstock, Designer paper – DWCV Nana’s Nursery, Inkadinkado – Chubby Giraffe, Congratulations and New Baby, Jesse James baby bling buttons, misc ribbon.

Have a great day.

I really do need to get out and buy a tripod, my sister gave me another option but I am stubborn. So please excuse my picture taking once again.

This image really does not do the colours in this card justice. There are crystals in the middle of each flower that does not show that well.

Supplies: Cream and aqua green cardstock, Designer paper - Daisy D’s, Denami Design – Stampin’Up! Sassy Stems, Stampendous – Simple Happy Birthday, misc tan and green ribbon, Jolee’s jewelry flat back crystal.

Have a great Wednesday.

This is the second card from this weekends Close to my Heart gathering, we used a brayer to get the varients of yellow to orange.

Supplies: All supplies Close to my Heart.

Good Morning,

Today’s card was one that I made at a Close to my Heart workshop. I really enjoyed the projects yesterday. The first one was using Rub-Ons on a glass picture frame, I can’ t really show that one as I don’t have a picture in it and that will take careful consideration. The second and third projects were both cards. The first card was a 2 layer card. The first layer we made our own design using a floral stamp set (sorry I could not find it in the idea bookfor the name) and a variety of inks. The second layer was a simple phrase, we added some buttons, rickrack and some glitter. Basic, simple and cute.

Supplies: All supplies are Close to my Heart.

I apologize for the so so card portrait, I broke my tripod and need to get a new one so until then it is free hand outside the light tent.

Cheers,

TGIF, the sun should be shining, it is the end of the week and am looking forward to a couple of days at home.

I centered this card around the Breast Cancer ribbon, I could not find a stamp or a punch for this although I think there are variations of both out there. I used a random ribbon off the internet then used Diamond glaze and glitter to create this little embellishment. I layered it 2 times to give it dimension.

I embossed the Thoughts of you with Burgundy embossing powder and used a Cuttlebug Leafy branch to emboss the cream card stock.

Cancer... what a nasty evil disease.

Supplies: Cream and burgundy cardstock, Leafy branch - Cuttlebug embossing folder, Thoughts of you - Katie Hall Studio G, Glitter Ritz - Lilac Pink, misc ribbbon.

Isn't this little box cute, I think the template for it is from Cricut. Boy did I struggle with putting this together, you would have though I had 6 hands in there foldering. In the end I think it turned out ok although nothing will be put in this box as it is glued up tight.

The top has these sweet little punched hearts in red, I tried to take a picture but it just did not turn out so you will have to take my word for it.

Actually a couple of the projects were made with Cricut templates for this workshop, my husband says I am not allowed to have one which is fine because my credit card could get into all sorts of trouble if I started down that path.

All Supplies: Stampin! Up

This card was very simple to make and turned out pretty.

Have a fabulous day.

I love the shape of this card. The Stampin' Up textured paper is very pretty. I was still running with my stamping issues though.


Cheers,

The April Stampin' up! workshop was yesterday, I was happy I attended as I liked all the projects. You ever have those days when your craft mojo is just not flowing. Mine was yesterday, I felt like my hands were unattached and I could just not make it happen. I WILL show you my results anyway, even though they are sloppy.

I'll post the worst one first, I tried to fix it a little when I get home, the bad vibes followed me home and I just made a mess. That will teach me.

I really liked this card, it comes with a Cricut generated envelope, I love the neutral colors.
