Flower Pot Step Card

Hi Folks,

It's been a cool, rainy day here in Alberta today....a good day for scrappin'.

I've been working on some projects for an upcoming scrappy day with my friends.  I also decided to make a card.....

This is a flower pot card attached to a step card.  I made the *flowers* up as I went along.

The flower tag comes out and here is where you can write your message, or you could stamp something here and write your message on the back of the tag.

That's all for now!

Polka Dots Swing Card!

Here's my latest creation.  A swing card made using Graphic 45 *Botanical Tea* papers....one of my favourites!

I cut the flowers & leaves out of one of the papers, inked the edges with distress ink then embossed them.  I love the look that this gives.....you can see it better in the next couple of pictures.

Thats it for today, I appreciate you taking the time to visit me.

Lovely in Lavender!

Hi there everyone!  Today I made a gatefold card, hope you like it.

The papers and elements are from this Lavender & Lace kit which I purchased from Aimee Asher.

I used my Memory Mixers program to size the various elements to fit my card, then printed them out. 

The colours are actually lavender, but look pink in the pictures.

Thanks for looking, hope you have a great day!

3 New Cards!

Card-in-a-Box

Today I have a couple more cards to show you.

I'm getting lots of inspiration from Pinterest these days.  

  The first one is a card-in-a-box, I have made these type of cards before, but its been a while.  I have this coffee cup stamp from *Stampin Up*, so just had to make this one. The papers I used are black & ivory from K & Company  

Here is the card I saw on Pinterest. The link doesn't go anywhere, so if you are the creator of this card let me know and I'll give you credit.

It folds flat to go in an envelope

If you'd like to make a card-in-a-box, here is a tutorial.

Now here's another fancy fold card, this one is an easel blackboard card.  I smudged the ink a little to make it look a bit more like chalk.  The back looks the same, without the banner, and that is where I can write my greeting in white gel pen.  Here is a tutorial

Thats all for today, thanks for stopping by!

*Tweet* Card

I'm back again today with another card.

I saw these cute birds on Pinterest and decided to give them a try.

They are so easy & fun to do.

The papers I used are the Baby Girl stack from DCWV.

I made the sentiment on my computer using a program called *Memory Mixer*

Have a great day folks!
