Plenty O' Wedding/Anniversary Cards

I needed8 Anniversary Cards to get caught up

on all my card making. I can officially say I am all caught up after I address write and send thes cards off. When I get home form my trip It will still be August so i can start working on my Cards for Sept and fall. What a great feeling.

I used, SU:Pirouette Pink, Embassy: Black, GP:white cardstock to make these cards. The black & white pieces pieces were all scraps. Used my Cuttlebug and The victoria folder again...Love it!

I used my SU Lacey Scallop corner punch , and my Lrg.,SM., And Scalloped Oval Punches. to mat and frame the main sentiment and image panels. The Cake is from SU: Fairytale Wedding(retired), and the sentiment from Taggers Dozen. Ink is Je Black StazOn and I colored the cake with my Prismacolors. It feels great to make somany cards the last few weeks and to actually be caught up. I made plenty of Bday cards I forgot to take pictures of...

Until Later ...Happy Stamping!

Winged Anniversary

I started working on Anniversary Cards...I took the wedding Idea I had this weekend and made this Anniversary card. I started out with a card base I had stamped over a year ago and stuck in a drawer because it didnt work for what I was doing. I didnt like it so I sat it aside..to surface today when I was creating. I believe I stamped it with Regal Rose on Apricot Appeal. I used. Certinly Celery, Apricot Appeal, And Melon Mambo Cardstock to make the card.

Love the SU sizzlets butterfly die. They made this project easy.

I hope you like it.

Until Later...Happy Stamping!

Wedding Cards

I made some wedding cards this last weekend

using up some of my old stash. The Card bases are from an old paper pack of Nuetral colors I picked up at Michaels..I think By Paper Co. The black is also the matting and trim pieces are all from scraps. I wasnt thinking clearly when I assembled the first card and forgot to stamp or emboss the background. I felt it was still a nice looking card and thought I would let you compare the two cards.

Do you like the embossing pick me up as much as I do ..

I love my Cuttlebug,

Can you see now why I love my embossing folders the way I do. I think the Swiss dots folder just makes everything stand out.

The sentiment is SU: taggers dozen, and the couple image is one I picked up individually at my local Craft store. Its a stampendous stamp from 2000..I just picked it up I was looking for a small image that would fit in a small circle or square punch...I was glad it was still hanging out on the shelf. The white cardstock is GP white embossed with Vicotria CB folder...love that folder esp. on weddig and anniversary things

I hope you like what I created to share

Until Later...Happy Stamping!

Still Catching Up

I still need to get caught up on Kids Birthday Cards for the summer. I came across this image I had stamped and pasteled a few years ago, last week. I decided I should use it on one of my kids cards. I also decided to try one of SCS Sketch Challenges SC292 and used the LO by Dawn to make this Card. Stop By and Wish her a Happy Bloggaversary! today ; I know she would appreciate it.

I like how the card turned out and I think my nephew will also. Hope you enjoy it too.

Until Later.... Happy Stamping!

Snowflakes and Pearls challenge

I made this card several weeks ago for a snowflakes and pearls challenge on SCS, but it has taken a month to get it off my camera.

It really was an miracle that it even got a challenge card made. So I think I ill share the story with you. I was trying to get a card made for a friend and thought a lovely flower frame would be nice to have. I was working with my Gypsy and its tiny screan and didnt have my glasses downstairs but was a ffraid if I went looking for them I would never make my way back to my craft space so I diligently laid out my mat withthe colors I wanted and cut my card. when it came out on this mat I had this lovely snowflake theme going on. I was talking on the phone to my friend at the time and said ..sheesh I thought I cut a springy garden frame and now I have stars and snowflakes... SHe said perfect. the challenge today is Snowflakes and Pearls. I set the pieces aside and made the floral frame card I was needing and then came back a few days later made the card and took the picture. Where it miraculously lasted through weeks of the kids taking th ecamera for pictures and fun. Until today where I uploaded to my blog to share.

I love how th ecard turned out and how the pearls look on the snowflakes. I hope you enjoy it also, and I have learned my lesson I now keep a spare pair of reading glasses in my purse, by my computer, bed, reading chair, and CRAFT TABLE!

Until Later... Happy Stamping!
