Quick card for a guy

 Good morning everyone, Happy Friday! Here’s a really quick card for a masculine birthday.  One of my DH’s good friends has a birthday next week and he just reminded me this morning he needed a card.  So I had to think quick on my feet to get one out to the mail box this morning. I used bits of Anna Griffin embellishments and glue and there you have a quick guy card!  And it is now in the post!  Hope everyone has a great weekend and I may be back later in the weekend with more to share.....

Until next time

Card kits or no card kits

 Hi everyone!  So I have a question for y’all.......... Do any of you card makers like and sometimes use card kits to make some quick and pretty cards?  I used to not be a big fan of kits.  But there have been some really neat kits come out of late.  Crafters Companion has been coming out with some really cool kits.  I bought one when HSN had their monthly craft show.  It’s these really really cute vintage purse cards.  I made one for Mom to send to my sister as a thank you for her moms day gift.  And I must say it was very quick to put together and it is so so cute.  Here it is.  I would love to hear what y’all think. 


So that’s it for today.  Have a fab evening all......

Until next time

Swap card

 Hi all..... just finished my swap card for the card group I belong to.  I think it’s kinda pretty not my usual colors but still I like it!  We had to Pick from a tic tac toe board... I chose ribbons, flowers and gemstones. I hope my person likes it.  Now I really need to get busy thinking on what to make for my mom.  I have no ideas at the moment but I am sure it will come to me...... hope you like the card I made and will leave me some comment love.  Have a great evening!

Card for my niece

 So I made this cute little card for one of my nieces......  she is an amazing artist in her own.  She loves doing tattoo’s and my hubby found these cool skin safe tattoo makers made by BIC markers.  So of course we had to get them and send them off to her.  Which meant I had to add a card also, lol! You know any excuse to make a card!   Anyways here is the card it is a bit smaller than my usual cards but I think it’s cute.  I used one of mums butterfly edgable  dies, and a bunch of crafters companion butterfly stamps.... and here it is........... 



And there you have it... thanks so much for popping by and have a splendid day. 


Until next time
