Happy Birthday!

this is a quick card for my youngest daughter Ashton :) I didn't actually have it done in time for mailing or personal delivery.

I used Elegent Edges (loops) for the matting and resized the project idea shown in the cricut book to a card from a 12x12 layout. I used CardzTv stamps for the sentiment cut into a banner. The image is colored with my Copics. I cut the image with my Silhouette.

Hedgies have a special place in her heart and one day she will have one! but for now, Penny Black supplies them :)

card stock is from stash as is the ribbon.

Happy Birthday Ashton!!
Hugs and Love, Mom

Valentine Card

1st Happy Valentine Card for 2014

 I started making a few cards today, and this one has been on my list to do for awhile. I saw similar cards last year and had it on my TO DO List for this year.
I am really pleased how it turned out.
The silhouette is from A Childs Year Cartridge cut at 2.25. The white large doily is from 
Art Philosophy cut at 4.75. The small doily is a 2.25 die  from Taylored Expressions.
I also use an embossing folder by Darice called Hearts :). The Arrow is from the CCR digital images pkg called Arrows. I cut this at 1 inch and then cut into 2 pieces so I could fit it on the card which is 5.5 x 5.5. The mini hearts were cut and punched from various other cartridges using the CCR and my E2 and a Studio G mini punch.
The corners of the black mat were punched with a punch by All Night Media that I had in my collection.
All papers were from my stash and most from AC Moore and Michaels.

Thanks for looking and hope you enjoy :)

Have a great week everyone!

Birthday cards

This past weekend was my sil bday. Aside from making stuffed mushrooms for a celebratory dinner her husband had, I made this special card for her :)


thanks for looking

I'll post the deets after I clean the desk off.. lol

Rosette Goof Ups...

turned out pretty! well, at least I think so :)
The intent was to be part of the Rosette Christmas tree shown on the Close To my Heart Holiday brochere. I ended up putting the rosette together with the decorative side on the inside glued...bahhhhhh
I wanted to do a pre run with different papers before cutting the intended CLMH ones. I goofed not just once, but twice and I definately burned my fingers with the HOT GLUE!
I added a few sequins and a pretty dimensional flower sticker by K C & Co. that was in my stash to each of them and a tulle hanger with a bow.
Here's the result :) thanks for looking

This cute Halloween card is totally inspired from Mary at CardzTV

I used additional CardzTv stamp sets , Trick or Treat and Oct 31st. The striped paper is from a Cloud 9 Design seasonal pack that I had in my stash from last year or even prior to that.

Martha Stewart's dripping gooo punch of course and the cricut carts Mary used as well.

I cut the spider web border with my Silhouette and it was a cut from Miss Kate Cuttables.

thanks for looking and Happy Halloween!

Wedding Card

This is a card I put together based on this one that I found on Pinterest. The senitiment on the front is computer generated. The patterned paper is My Minds Eye Meadow Lark. I found the gems at Hobby Lobby and are from the Paper Studio Gemstones #445353 and the heart gem is from variety pack #949750. The piece of black satin ribbon is from my stash as well as the cardstock(110lb). The  scalloped edge is done with We R Memory Keepers Doily 2 Edge Punch.
The inside sentiments were stamped using a Studio G stamp for Happy Wedding Day and Congratulations is from Lil' Inker Designs.

Happy St. Patrick's Day

this was a freebie at Bugaboo Digital Stamps so adorable an just perfect for card making. I colored him with Copic markers and a dab of gold on his hat.

I used my circle spellbinders to cut and emboss,then I used CCR to cut the scallop circle mat. The digi is up on one thickness of foam tape. The tab/banner comes from the Artiste cartridge. My sentiment stamps on the inside  comes from The Stamps of Life.

All of the paper and cardstock is from my stash.

Happy St. Patrick's Day!!!
