Happy 100th Birthday!

Today I have a birthday card for my husband's grandmother who will be turning 100 at the end of the month.  This is a card with no stamping, just die cuts and computer sentiment.  I used lots of dimensionals to layer the diecuts.  The crocheted flower is from the $1 rack at the M craft store!  Hope you enjoy your day!

Happy Mom's Day with Graphic 45


Today I have a Mother's Day card to share.  I love all the new Graphic 45 papers and this is from one of the newer collections, Botanical Tea.  I did some fussy cutting for the flower, butterfly and bird images.  I added a diecut for the border and added lots of glitter to the images to jazz it up a bit.  Simple and quick!  Hope your day is happy!

Basket of flowers

This is a quick card I needed to make and get in the mail today.  The background is an embossing folder that was embossed on a printed paper.  The basket and flowers are dies.  Great for an Easter week birthday!  Have a great day!

Graphic 45 Explosion Box


Today I am posting 2 projects I have made with Graphic 45 papers.  This is an explosion box I made for my Mom's bday.  The Graphic 45 papers are just beautiful!  I made a total of 8 pockets on the inside of the box for inserting various cards into of stamped images, cutouts, or even a few of the cards in the package of papers.  I added some rock candy glitter to the cut outs to glitz it up a bit.  Such a fun project with some of my favorite papers!  Happy Crafting!

By the Sea

Today I have a card I made at the last minute for my father-in-law for his bday in 6 days!  He is a lover of fishing and lighthouses and the NC coastline so this was perfect for him.  Graphic 45 has these gorgeous new papers out and so much fun to do things with.  This was a fun card to make...unlike most male cards I have done in the past!  Thanks for dropping by.

Happy Birthday Pastor Peel!!!

It took me half the day to come up with this card for our Pastor on his 75th birthday...but it happened!  Male cards are so hard to do.  I came up with about 3 other ideas before this one and they all flopped...you know how it goes!  Then this one hit me.  My hubby is a pilot so this works well for us.  The church is an embossing folder that I just blinged up a bit with snow on the water colored trees and some glitter on the church.  I found an image of a Colorado SWA plane and cut it out to add to the card.  I think Pastor will like it.

Double birthday

This is a birthday card I made for my daughter-in-law who is a twin.  It's a Magnolia stamp that I have been hunting for for quite some time. I colored it with Copics and used Spellbinders dies to frame it.  Have a fun day!
