Working on Valentine's Day stuff

Hi everyone.  Hope y'all are having a great start to your New Year.  I just made this card for my Mom for Valentine's Day.  The base card is from Crafter's Companion, I love their stuff.  I then used some alcohol inked papers, I made, to stamp and die cut some flowers and leaves from Heartfelt Creations.  I also added some bling to the inside of these flowers.  Then I added the ribbon, glued the flowers down and decided it needed a little more so I added the red gem stones and now I am happy with it.  I know she will love it!  Oh and I die cut a card stand I had from Joy Craft..............

 I am also entering this card into the following challenges

Well that's it for the moment, I do have a few more cards in the works and will share soon.  So pop by back to see them.  Thanks to those of you who do stop and leave me some comment love, I do appreciate it and love reading all of them.

Card for my Hubby

Hello and Happy Sunday!  I finally got around to making my hubbies Christmas card.  I hope he likes it!  He is hard to make cards for but I did it and I am actually pretty happy with how it came out.  I used a deer  stamp and die and a pine cone stamp from a card making magazine that I can not remember which one, sorry.  the sprigs and berries stamp is from Stampendous.  I made the shaker part with some gold sequins and heat sealed some clear plastic I had lying around then glued it all together.  I think he will like it and hope you do too.   I may have added a bit to much sequins, oh well...............

Last of the Xmas Cards

Back again with the last of my Xmas Cards for this year!  Finally done and it's a good thing as my Pet biz is about to get busy and I'd have no time to finish..... This batch of cards was done using some Anna Griffin card making supplies, misc. card toppers that I've had for a while and only use when I need quick cards. An then one last Parchment Groovi card and one stamped card.  They make really pretty cards without a lot of effort.  Enjoy!










added a touch of wink of stella to this Parchment card for a liitle shimmer.

Well hopefully I have not missed anyone on my card list.  Although I have really backed off on whom I send to theses days.  Only sent 25 hand made ones this year, in past I've done over 80!  Thanks for popping by and have a fabulous day!  

Until next time

Anniversary card and #2 and #3 Christmas Cards

Hi there,  I'm back today with a cute anniversary card for two friends who are celebrating 19 years of wonderful marriage.  I used a digi image I have had around for a while and just thought it was perfect for them...... I colored with Pencils and matted with same color card stock.  Sometimes simple is better.  I really like this card and I hope they will too.  Below are 2 more Christmas Cards.  I used some new Christmas theme Groovi plates.  I used parts of several different one to creat these two cards.  I then backed them with polka dot paper and used brads to hold all in place.  Also added some bling and dots of color with Tombow markers.    Hope you like them because I really am happy with them.   Thanks for popping by and check back soon as I am going to be adding more very very soon.

Until next time

Yellow Roses Birthday and more fall

Hello, I'm back with a very pretty birthday card for a very sweet online friend.  I made this card b/c I know it one she probably would not make, she does wonderful watercolor cards and draws like no bodies business.  She is awesome and I just wanted to make her a card to show her how much she means to me.  So Helen Hannum Happy Birthday Lady! 

 And well I was still into fall colors of late so I made these two fall cards using the ink smooshing technique.  And it was great fun.

Thanks so much for coming by and if you feel inclined please leave me a message and tell em what you like and don't like about these...........

Until next time,
