A Little Love

Isn't this lace so cool? It is supposed to be for Halloween but it is fun for other holidays too.


Yes this greeting is smudged, I stamped it after I put the card together... I was too lazy to take it apart and put it back together :)
The red music notes are stamped with the wheel, and the polka dots are made with the big shot and the embossing folder.

Anyone want this flower? I made it for some blog candy but the winner never sent me her address, so I guess she doesn't want it. If you love this flower leave me a comment and I will pick another winner!

Spooky Crow.

Sorry, this picture isn't straight on, the clear plate kept making wierd reflections even without the flash on, So you get to look at it from the top :) I totally copied this idea from my talented friend Ashley. I just simplified mine and added the DSP to the back of the plate instead of the front. I now have this on my stamp shelf so my baby can't touch it, yep I love it that much :)

This crow comes with a bunch of other fabulous vinyl images. I just need to figure out what to do with the rest of them asap!

Got Birthday?


I just love cupcakes. I was challenged to make a birthday card that would work for both men and women and this is what I came up with. We made this at a class and holy cow I seriously looked for the little flower punch FOREVER. I couldn't find it anywhere, my one year old loves to carry these little punches around since they fit perfectly in her little hands :) Luckily I found it in time, the cupcake just isn't the same without it!

Can you see the texture on the chocolate strip behind the cupcake? that is our fabulous textured cardstock. Love it.

Hearts and Pumpkins

Here are the last 2 cards I designed for the group meeting this month. This first card was pretty simple... the second one took a lot longer to make. I loved the dimension on this first card, usually the stamped image is on top, but on this card, it is on the bottom. :) To make this circle/heart image, first punch out the heart out of cardstock and then punch out the circle around it.



To only emboss the top half of the card, I just turned the embossing folder so it was facing the opposite direction that it usually faces. The green border was made with the new decorative label punch, and we stamped the pumpkin with the rock and roll technique.


Here is a picture of the inside. You can see all the different layers.

Poppy Christmas

This card just makes me smile. I am not sure if it is the ruffles, ribbon, bling, or scallops.

The ruffle is actually made from Old Olive cardstock. I first crumpled the strip of cardstock in my hand and then layed it out in ruffles.


I am also loving the Poppy Parade color. It is one of the in-colors, I even just bought a shirt in the same color. So fun! This DSP comes from the hostess paper stack that you can get for free.


As you can see, I sponged the greeting with poppy ink and I also sponged the edge of the white oval that was cut out with the ovals die and the big shot.
I still can't believe I am already making Christmas Cards!!!

So Spooky

I LOVED making these cards, halloween is awesome - probably my favorite holiday. I was able to use so many new punches that I love for these cards! We added a bit of bling to the witches shoe - love the rhinestonesI showed my ladies these three options and It was fun to see the different combinations of cards that they made. I let them choose between dry and heat embossing and let them have fun with the different images. We used the shimmer spray to sparkle the bats.


We made these cards for Stamp Club this month. Some people wanted a non-halloween option so I used a different stamp set and embossing folder to make this card.

Paisley Prints Cards

I created some cards for a downline meeting this weekend, and I can now show them to you! These cards were made with the Paisley Prints stamp set (in the mini). I have to admit that I didn't like this set very much at first. I am not a big fan of paisleys (although they are slowly growing on me) and I was hesitant to use this set, but I ended up loving it. Isn't that how it always is? I will show you the first two cards today, and the last 2 cards soon. This card was my absolute favorite out of the six I made. I love the ribbon! This is the card we will be making next month at stamp club!
I can't believe Christmas is just around the corner! This card would be perfect for Christmas Cards, it is pretty simple and love it. We used Stampin' Up! fabric instead of ribbon!
