3 for 3

Hello from cloudy rainy Texas... Since I had to be inside due to rainy weather an back/hip issues I figured it would be a good day to work on a few cards.  They are all Birthday Cards.  I is for my Niece for her 16th birthday and I did a Shaker card.  One is for a very good friend of my Husband who collects Dragon and love anything Celtic.   And the last one is for a sweet Gal Friend who's turning 59 next week, she was the first friend I made when I moved to Texas 34 years ago.  Boy it really is hard to believe we have been friends that long! I added a bit of wink of Stella to all the flowers but the picture does not show it, but it really shimmers nicely.  Anyway here are the 3 cards.  Love to hear what you think too.  And Thanks for popping by to visit.

Have Thursday to all.

Until next time

1 more card made this past week


Hello, here is one of my last 2 cards for the week.  Used all items from the Stamp of Approval box from Stamp Nation, by Catherine Pooler.   These come out every so many months, can't remember how often but they always have a wonderful assortment of stamps, dies and sometimes embellishments too.   This card is  for Mother's Day.  The "YOU" is a die as are the hearts and they have glossy accents on them not so sure it shows that well in this pic. Everything else is stamped.   I love it!  Thanks for popping by and have a beautiful Sunday.   

P.S. will try to get the last card put together and post later today, no promises though, LOL....

Until next time

Quickie Card

Happy Saturday Peeps.  A friend called and wanted a card for her daughter's 30th birthday and needed it for today, of course, LOL.  So I used a bunch of pieces from assorted card kits that I had lying around, since I only had a very short window to make this for her.  I think it turned out pretty.  What do y'all think?  

Until next time,
  Happy Crafting

Next to last Birthday Card for May finished!

OK, Ok, I know I said this was going to be the last birthday card but I left someone out by mistake so there will be on more birthday card coming before I get on to Mother's day cards.  This was fun to make it's from a kit with Downton Abbey theme.  It was a PBS show for those who do not know of it.   I loved the show and this set is nice.  Here is the card I came up with for a friend in one of my dearest friends. 

Until next time,

Another Birthday Card Done

Hello from wet and soggy TX.   Was nice earlier today but rain is moving in again.  So today I found a little bit of time to make another birthday card.  Now I only need 1 more birthday card before I can start on Mother's Day....... So this card was made with a scrap of champagne colored and embossed card stock.  I used momento inks to give color to the raised embossed area and cut to fit the card.  Then I stamped flowers around a cut out circle from scraps and stamped the sentiment in the middle.  I added a paper flower colored again with momento inks.  Also added a bit of color around the edges of all card.  All in all it's a cute card and I am happy with it.  

Thanks for stopping by and have a fabulous evening.........

Until next time,
Tootles
