Wedding card

Here is a wedding card I made using a Lily of the Valley stamp.  The papers are leftovers from a kit I ordered from Button Farm.  They are Kaisercraft papers.  The cut out behind the wedding couple is also from those same papers.  I added a little SU stamped tag and some bling and ribbons.  This will go with the little book I made for them using these papers.
Happy crafting!

Bohemian Card

Today I have a Bohemian Bazaar Card to share made with Graphic 45 papers.  It is one of those trifold stair step cards that are easy to make and the directions for various ones can be googled.  I just cut the papers to fit the folds and added embellishments.  The butterflies are 3D stickers from my stash that tied in well with the colors of the papers.  Have a great weekend!

Cadet Frames

This is a quick frame I made for our Cadet's Moms when they were here a few weeks ago for Parents Weekend.  I had some dollar frames laying around and put one coat of acrylic blue paint on them.  Then I picked up a deck of cards at the AFA and cut pictures from the cards to put on the frame.  I had a few embellishments I also added to get some bling in there!!!  And then I FORGOT to give them to them!!!  I did manage to get one Mom as she was getting in her car so that was good...maybe the other two will make great xmas gifts!  Have a fun day!

More Christmas Tags

This is my last in this series of holiday tags.  Again, these were made from large 12 x 12 papers that usually had one decorative side to it.  I cut tags from the sides and then added embellishments, ribbons, diecuts and bling.  These really went quickly which is what I love about them as my time is getting very short for projects I really want to get done for the holiday season.
Happy crafting!

More Xmas Tags!

Wow...I'm back 2 days in a row!  So, here are a few more xmas tags I made yesterday.  These were so much fun to FANCY UP!  I just used old papers from my stash and embellishments.  I did add a few of the new Memory Box die cuts.   A few touches of bling pulled them all together!  Have a great week!

Christmas Tags

Hello my friends!  I am finally taking a bit of time to play in my craftroom today.  I wanted to get started on xmas tags for packages.  If I don't start early...it won't get done.  And I have a big fear that I will be doing some wedding things at the last minute through the end of October so I trying to do what I can now.  We'll see what happens!  So, here are some quick and easy tags I made using papers I had on hand.  I went through my xmas papers and found some with pretty designs on the edges or one side of the papers.  Then I just cut them into tags and added embellishments and ribbons.  I love that they are simple, yet elegant.  I must have made about 25 in a few hours!  It was fun getting back into the swing of things.  I'll be back with more to share another time!  Happy crafting!

Darcy's Baptismal card

This is a baptismal card I made for a 9 year old little girl that joined the church the same day as us.  She was recently adopted from Foster Care and asked her new parents to join a church and allow her to be baptised!  Her wishes came true in so many ways!  Her parents are in their 70's!  She is a very smart little girl and so sweet.  It is hard to believe what she has been through in her short life but hopefully things have become much better for her with her new family.  This stamp is from a Baptismal set by Jillian.  The background is a Sizzix embossing folder, I believe.  I added a touch of pink to the card and some pearls.
Have a crafty day!
