A few more...

Here are three more cards I cased...

I've been so short on time and creativity lately that I've been checking out Splitcoast a lot and seeing all sorts of amazing ideas!

I used a cherry blossom stamp from PaperSource.com for this card. I then cut a flower from the Fabulous Flowers set (seee... I love it!!) and stamped a sentiment from Heard from the Heart.

This card used Fabulous Flowers again... SURPRISE! Haha. I stamped the images on glossy card stock and added some rhinestones. I'm trying not to hoard so many supplies this year! I added some Kiwi Kiss ribbon and used the Happy Birthday from my All Holidays set.



I made this card for our friends, Kevin and Kim. They got married on the 10th and their wedding was black and white. How appropriate. I used another one of my favorite sets... Always. The sentiment is from Heard from the Heart. Love that set, too!

January Stamp Club!

Well... Sadly, the club was cancelled for today. The weather is just NOT good out there!! Besides the freezing cold, now we have lots of snow!!

Here are the items we were going to be making...

I cased both of these from ideas I saw on Splitcoast. I changed them both slightly and think they are perfect for Valentine's Day!!




The next idea is perfect for kid's valentine's day treats! I bought some flat suckers on a stick and made these little cards. I saw the idea last year on Laura's blog... ScrapNExtras on my right hand side bar. Check out her work!

Lastly I made my first ever Post-It Note and Pen holder. Super cute!! I used Fabulous Flowers. I am SO sad that it's retiring. I usually don't get so emotional over my stamps... but I LOVE this set! I use it all the time!! Go HERE to see a video of how it's made.


Hope you enjoyed... Check back later. I have a few other cards to post!

Quickie!

MY Christmas Cards

Just wanted to give a quick look into all the cards I made this year. I went SUPER simple because I've been just SO busy. I'm currently working on lots of Thank You and Birthday cards so that I can have some for my own stash! I am using KWerner's previous color challenges and I'm hoping to get caught back up!!

Hope you enjoy these... I'll be back with more updates later!









Aunt Peg's Workshop

Back on November 1st Aunt Peg hosted a holiday preview workshop. We made a couple cards... here they are:

I got the idea for the turkey card from a magazine that the Stampin' Up! Demo's receive. I knew Aunt Peg wanted a Thanksgiving card and I couldn't find any sets that I was DYING to use. I knew this would be fun and perfect!! The ladies were all new stampers, so it was great to show them how to use lots of punches to create a cute card!


I used the Season of Joy set to make this easy Christmas card. We inked the main sentiment in versa mark and colored it in with pastels. I love the way it turned out and everyone liked it!!

Two Cards, Same Set

I made both of the following cards using the "Home For Christmas" set that is in the Holiday Mini Catalog.

Eileen wanted something with LOTS of glitter, and likes real Christmas green. I accent the Glorious Green based with Riding Hood Red paper and ribbon and embossed the main image with Irredescent Ice.


Devra wanted a card that resembled the one directly in the Mini. Here is what I came up with...

Kevin helped me a TON by coloring all 25 of the main door images for me. What a guy!! :)




I'll post more in the next few days... Enjoy!
