Some masculine birthday cards

Hello and a very happy Sunday to all!  I hope you are coping with all the crazy things going on in our world.  I am doing my best to keep busy and keep mom and hubby involved in things too.  So I have  3 masculine type cards to share today.  They are for 3 friends of my and my hubby.  They have actually come to expect my handmade cards and I feel like they they do like them.  So here are the cards.  I used an older Art Impressions stamp set on the trifold front card and cling stamps from a set that in no longer have the wrap for but are from the same set.  I hand colored the Art Imression card with pencils and the other two I use stencil shapes to create the colored shapes with distress inks.  Then stamped the silhouette images in black color box ink.  I am pretty happy with them and hope you enjoy seeing them.   





 


So there you have it....I will be back soon with few other cards that I forgot to share last week........and I am working on a birthday card for my hubby Aunts birthday and a swap card both are in the works.   Well hope your enjoying your Sunday. Please feel free to let me know your thoughts on these.  

Until next time,
Tootles

Belated Mothers Day

Hello everyone.  First a very Happy belated Mother's Day to all the Moms out there, hope you had a very special day!  Below are 2 cards I made.  One is a card for my mom and one for friends who just closed on their first new home.  On another note, we may be able to view/see the Blue Angels and Thunderbirds fly over here in Texas later today.  Which I think is pretty cool.  Hope everyone is still doing well with all the virus things in our part of the world.  We are doing great here.  Have a fabulous Wednesday all.........


That's all for now.  Happy crafting everybody.....

Until Next Time

One last Birthday card

Hi and a super Saturday evening to all of you!  I realized this morning that I missed a friends birthday and did up a quick card in her fav colors purples and pinks.  Used up the last of my handmade Heartfelt Creations flowers from dies.  So I guess I need to get busy and make more, lol.   I found some spellbinder flower dies too in my stash so I may give those a shot.   Anyways, here is the birthday card.  Have a fab weekend.........


See y’all soon.
Until next time,

Birthday cards and a RAK......

Well hello everyone. Just sharing a bunch of birthday cards and a RAK that I just finished up.  Now on to swap card and of course Mother’s Day cards.  So here are all the birthday cards.  I made a bunch of backgrounds using Gina K’s ink smashing technique.  It was fun!  These were all made with some tried and true old stamping ideas. The red tulip card was done with tulip stickers, put all around the card then trimmed off the excess.    But I am very happy with the outcome On all.  Hope you like them and get some inspiration...........  oh and before I forget, I want to congratulate another card making friend, Clara K., she has been chosen as a guest designer with, Frantic Stamper, inc.  So happy for her and can’t wait to see what she creates for them.








Well that’s it for today.  I’ll promise to post my swap and Mother’s Day cards very soon. Love seeing all the wonderful comments, so please leave me some love and I will be popping by your blogs too.  Happy Friday all!

Until next time

Finally back!

Hello everyone!  I have been MIA for sometime.  I have been making cards but just had no time to actually post them.  I will try over the next few days to post several at a time so I can get caught up on sharing with you all.   My mom is with us now and we have finally settled into a good groove and I am so lucky that she and my hubby get along soooo well.  They laugh and joke together all the time.
I also want to say I hope everyone is healthy and doing well with all the virus stuff happening.  We have been fine thru it all so far.  

I have also started to make my own 3D flowers, since I can’t get to my fav craft store and really do not want to charge a bunch of things.  Especially since I have a ton of stash here to make my own.  Here’s some of what I started making with what Heartfelt Creations flower dies I have and totally forgot about!  So how did. I do?  It’s fun to do and I make them while TV watching in the evenings.....I will be posting picks of cards sooon so be sure to check back or follow me now.
Thanks for popping by.........
