More Christmas Cards........


Hello everyone, i'm back again with a few more cards I sent out.
The first card I sent to my cousin Abby, the girl image is from CTMH Holiday Cheer stamp set, background paper from my stash, a red poppy PTI ribbon and a blue Prima flower with pearl center.













The second card is from CTMH Merry Pursuit stamp set (I love this elves set). The trees are cut from my cartridge and I used stickles to make the garland. I topped it with red buttons. Again the ribbon is from PTI (red poppy).








This last card is 5x7 card, I used the cuttlebug embossing folder and cut it in halft. The big snowflake is actually a rub on image topped with glitters from CTMH. This is a pretty simple but elegant card, I love how it turned out.



Hope you like the cards! Till next time....

A couple more cards!

Hello again, a friend at work ordered a set of cards as a Christmas present and below is the notecard holder I made for her order.
This next card is pretty simple, again just a little bit of a layer but mostly just stamped on the card base. The stamps used are from CTMH Connection Set, monkey image is also CTMH and adhered with foam tape, ribbon from Michaels, and the border punch is from Fiskars.

This last card is pretty simple, just a couple of layers, bamboo cardstock and designer papers from CTMH. Prima flowers are placed in the middle with a center brad. Thank You stamp is from CTMH.
Hope you can draw some inspiration from these simple cards.

Hello again!

Hello again, sorry it's been a while since I last posted. I can't wait til Christmas as that is when we will find out what we are having. But today, I have a couple of cards to share with you.
The first one is from Clean and Simple Challenge, FTL70. I like their layouts as it is simple and easy to do. Check out the cards below!

The base card is from DCWV, layered with PTI lemon tart CS and CTMH White Daisy CS. THe stamp image is from CTMH Cupcake Sprinkles, stamped with Citrus Leaf and Bubblegum Ink. The ribbon is PTI Hibiscus Burst and flower from Prima with a gem center. The sentiment is an old wood stamp from my stash.
The next one is from Clean and Simple Challenge FTL69.



This is pretty simple , no layers at all. I used CTMH Tickled Pink Stamp Set and stamped on Holiday Red Ink, then I used the holiday red buttons as centers in the flowers. On the small flowers, I used silver pearls as centers. The sentiment is from PTI Birthday Basics Stamp Set.
Have a wonderful Day!!!

Bridal Shower Card


Hi everyone,
Yes, I've been MIA for the past month. I'm just now regaining my passion for papercrafting because I have a big milestone to share. I'm 4 months pregnant and just passed my first trimester. My energy is back and my mojo is flowing.
First, I have made this bridal shower card for Grace. Her theme is Asian and her colors are red and gold.
The swirl background is a cuttlebug embosse and I used a gold metallic rubon to give the color. The scallop is cut from Nesties, the stamped image is from "Be Yourself" stamp set from CTMH. Ribbons are from my stash and the border was cut from my Martha Stewart punch. Hope you like it!
I will be posting the scrapbook album I started for my pregnancy journey, stay tuned!

I'm back!!!!!!!!!!


Hi everyone, I've been MIA for the last two weeks. I was in Florida for work and a bit of relaxation but now I'm back and ready to do more crafting. Before I left, i finished the baby blanket that I made for my Aunt. By the way, she just gave birth on August 1st to a healthy baby boy. Anywho, here's the final picture of the blanket measuring approx 32 inches by 27 inches, just a good size for a car seat blanket. Hope you like it!

Here are the baby favors I made for my Aunt's upcoming shower.
It's a mini chinese food take out box, I punched a scallop circle in blue cardstock and stamped it. On the back, I just wrote the date of the shower and thanking them for coming. I added a ribbon for a little bit of color.
Thanks for stopping by!

Baby Shower Cards!

Happy Friday everyone!!!! I love fridays, don't we all!
Anyways, here's a couple of cards I made for this weekend's baby shower I'm going to.
The first card is for my friend Leah, she's sassy and fashionable so I thought this preggy lady will fit her well with her little purse. This is cut from New Arrivals cartridge, the patterned paper and cardbase are CTMH papers, ribbon from Papertrey and some pink prima flowers. I ran the maternity dress thru my cuttlebug using swiss dots and the pants, i used stickles to make dots. Hope you like it.


The second one is also cut from New Arrivals Cartridge, a sweet pea. I used lavender papers from CTMH, ribbon and button from michaels. This is also my first attempt to use my mini sew machine to stitch the edges (can't you tell with my wiggly lines, haha). My MIL (mother in law) likes it so she is giving it to her granddaughter who is having her shower tomorrow.

Ok, have a great weekend everyone.
