Get well soon!


Hi, there!

Just popping in quick to share with you a couple cards I made recently.  My first card is one I made for my friend's husband who just had rotator cuff surgery.  They both love dogs and I recently found this awesome stamp set from Art Impressions while out shopping at Hobby Lobby.  I colored the fun image with copics.  I snickered at the fun sentiments!  I'm sure Ted will, too!  The dies are from MFT.  Dots and black twine to finish the card.

Next up. is an anniversary card for my friend, Pat and her husband, Darrell.  I made this card to help them celebrate their 50th anniversary!  And, here is the card...


The 50th die is from Memory Box.  The sentiment is from Sweet 'n Sassy and the banner die is from Paper Sweeties.  Gold ribbon from PTI and pearls to finish the anniversary card.  Last summer they took a trip to Hawaii to celebrate!  They had a great time...how fun and romantic!

This weekend my friend, Nancy, and I are going to a crop.  I'll be working on Easter cards.  Lots of chicks, lamb, and flowers for these cards.  The images are from Sunny Studio and the die is from MFT.  Here's a sneak peek...



I'm hoping by making these cards that it will hurry spring along.  We had very windy days here for the past couple days, which blew in colder weather again.  I'm so looking forward to spring!  Thanks so much for dropping by today!  Take care and have a wonderful week!

Hugs,

Happy Birthday!


Good Morning!

First off I want to apologize for my early March planner post that went live yesterday.  It has happened to me at other times.  I already had it scheduled to be on March 1st, but it decided to go live for some reason.  I had to revert back to draft.  Oh well, things happen.  But, thank you to those who commented already on the post, which you will see again on the scheduled date of March 1st.

Well, I do have a birthday card to share with you today.  It's for my friend, Angie.  Her birthday is next month.  The flower die cuts are from Paper Sweeties(Pretty Posies).  The flowers were colored with copics.  I popped up the two front posies with pop dots for dimension.  The stitched circle die cut and label die cut is from MFT.  The sentiment is from Avery Elle.  I sponged the background with distress inks of Broken China, Salty Ocean, and Twisted Citron.  Gems and ribbon to finish the card.  I'm entering this card over at CAS Mix Up.




A peek at the inside of the card...




The sentiment and die cut circle is from MFT, which was used to die cut the panel on the front of the card.  The same pretty posie image from Paper Sweeties.  Thank you for dropping by today!  Have a great day, take care!

Hugs,

Happy Valentine's Day!



Just popping in with a few Valentine cards!  I hope you all are having a great day!  It's a bit rainy here, but I'm grateful that we didn't get the freezing rain that they were calling for today.  I'm entering my first card over at Cupcake Inspirations.

And, first up is this card...



I started with the peacock image from MFT and added a heart to the stomach area.  I water colored the image with zig markers.  The scalloped panel is from Mama Elephant.  Nuvo drops and ribbon to finish the card.

Next up, is my card that I made using the same elements, but made with three different designs.  This one is my favorite of the three.  I used the cardinal again from Newton's Nook.


The sentiment is from MFT.  The paper is from Doodlebug.  Gems and ribbon to finish the card.


My last card...


This card also uses products from MFT.  A very quick and simple card.  Washi glitter tape to finish the card.

Thanks so much for taking the time today to view my cards!  Take care and have a wonderful day!

Hugs!
