Occasion card

This card is from the French Countryside stamp set. Can be used for sympathy, birthday (masculine),

Just a note, retirement depending on the sentiment. Made using Very Vanilla as the base and the mat for the images. The DSP is from a retired Designer Stack.


BTW the sections were cut with the rectangle Stitched Dies and distressed around the edges.

Until next time have a Blessed Day!

Happy Birthday

This is a great masculine card. The Happy Birthday is a retired SU Framelit but very handy to have. I used several different colors of blue and used the Big Shot to cu them and split them up 4 ways.


It is an unusual layout but effective.

Until next time have a blessed day!

Santa Buckle Card

I know it's a bit early for Christmas but I thought about this card for a while so I finally decided to sit down and make it. I do think the next one I make I will Emb the front and do the white fur a different way down the front of the card. (new idea)



The card base is Cherry Cobbler and I cut the Merry Christmas from a retired SU Framelit. Now that this was the 'sample' I will make a new different one.

I know some of you have realized I don't post as much as I used to do. Well two reasons: I have so much retired SU product and I would really like to use some of it and my customers seem ok with it. I also have sooooo many cards on hand.

Second reason, I did get an embroidery machine. I have always wanted one so I have been saving some time for playing with the machine.

Thank you for your loyality and I will try and get more done. If you have any suggestions please email me. Thanks again.

Until next time have a blessed day!

Double Z-Fold Card

My friend, Sharon, asked me to make a double z-fold card. I think I like it and it turned out good. This is for a male Birthday but can be made with different papers for different occasions.



BTW the card folds to fit a regular envelope! The base is Crushed Curry and is made using only one piece of 8.5 x 11 cardstock.

This will be one of our March SAS (Stamp A Stack) cards so we will be making 4 different cards using the same design.

Enjoy.

Until next time have a blessed day!

Gnome Home

I made this for a friend of mine who has the flu and I thought this would cheer her up. I love my Embroidery machine if you haven't noticed.


I still have to frame it. It's 11 x 8 and took 93,000 stitches but I love it.

Until next time have a blessed day!

Roses for You

While cleaning I found this Stipple Rose design I colored a long time ago. My friend, Brenda gave me the stamp and it is gorgeous. Just in time for Valentine's Day.


I added a strip of ribbon across the bottom. The card base is not Stampin Up but some older paper I had in my stash. I do love the roses.

Until next time have a blessed day!

Happy Valentine

Using the Layered Hearts, I made this simple card for Valentine's Day. The inside has an insert for your greeting. I found the arrow and Love already cut on my table therefore had to utilize it.



The base is Whisper White and the printed Designer Paper is the retired Valentine 6x6 paper stack from last year. Hearts are Real Red and Pretty in Pink.

Enjoy

Until next time have a blessed day!

Fun Card

This is mostly all retired but cute... the background paper is retired and the 'funny' chicken is retired too. I used two cuts from the Square Layer Dies.


I've been trying to use parts and pieces that I find laying around my table. It is a good idea to do some extra cuts and/or extra coloring images and when you are in a hurry, you have parts to use! Love the idea.

Until next time have a blessed day!

Layered Dies

I have been playing with some of the layered dies. There seems to be lots of different ways to make a card using all your layered dies.


My friend, Cindy, brought this to my attention and I plan to play more today. I did however cut the shadow too big so I fixed that on the next batch. Stay tuned for more ideas. Since it is raining it's a good day to stay in and STAMP!

Until next time have a blessed day!

Cooking!

I thought this saying was so cute! Some days it's like that for us all.


I did this one a white hand/drying towel with red stripe border. Love it.
