March 21, 2012 Playing catch up.....three cards:0)

Good afternoon everyone.
I just finished up our April family birthday cards and I have them here to share with you.

The first card I made for our nephew Eli, he will be 3 next month. I used a card in the Life's a Party cartridge for the base. The cute little digital stamp came from http://tiddlyinks.com/.
The grey cardstock is from Recollections and the green is (old)SU.

The second card I made is for our sweet neice Nicole. The card base is plain white cardstock (Georgia-Pacific) measured at 5 1/2 x 11. The cute purple polka dot paper is from DCWV Nana's Nursery, it is cut at 5 1/2 x 8 1/2. I cut three pieces of Kraft Recollections cardstock at 4 1/2 x 2, 4 1/2x 3, and 4 1/2 x 5 1/2 (the tag). The cream colored cardstock is from Recollections it is cut at 4 1/2 x 1/2 inch, I used a Fiskars edge punch. The SUPER CUTE digital stamp is ALSO from http://tiddlyinks.com/. Her name is Wryn...isn't she adorable?!

If you haven't seen the digital stamps on Tiddlyinks.....you should go and check them out....they are adorable!!!
Have a great day eveyone!!!:0)

May 23, 2012 It's Summer (Summer Wreath .... minus the apostrophe.....)lol

Good afternoon everyone. I am not sure why...but this project took me a really long time. I need to put my little apostrophe in my wreath too.....ooops! Ok....here is what I used to create the wreath..... I purchased a large foam ring at Michael's, as well as some pretty light blue yarn. I covered the ring of foam in yarn, that took a long time. I started in the inside of the wreath so you wouldn't see the glue as much. I used a hot glue gun. I used the "Life's a Beach" cartridge for everything BUT the wording ... The letters are from Base Camp. I didn't see an apostrophe...but there was quotation marks. I need to still add that. That is my go to cartridge for letters. Hope you like my project. Have a great day!:0)

Good evening everyone! I found some super cute brown envelopes a few weeks back at Archiver's. It was $2.99 for 12 envelopes (4 x 3.75 in).

November 5, 2011 Rosette Turkey

Good afternoon everyone!!! I made a rosette this morning. I was wanting to make some sort of Thanksgivng decoration for my son's teacher and this is what I came up with. I found the directions for the rosette here: http://mrsbscraftroom.blogspot.com/ Go check out here blog if you haven't been there before. She made a beautiful pumpkin rosette.:0) AND she made a video to show you how to make it.;0) I followed the instructions she had and made the brown rosette. I added an extra rosette on the top, I believe it was 2 1/2 x 12 (2 pieces). What I added: 3 strips of 4 x 12 scored at 1/2 inch intervals. I made a 1/2 rosette. At the bottom (to hold it together) is about a 2x12 strip of the same cardstock glued to the rosette. The cartridge I used was Create a Critter. The cardstock I used was: rosette and turkey (Recollections) and the rest was (old) SU. Let me know if you have any questions. Have a great weekend!!!:0)
