Inside of Graduation Card

Hello Sun! We are having a beautiful Sunday with no rain...woo hoo! So sorry I didn't post a picture of the inside of the graduation cards I made. I used a poem from one of my fav's...Helen Steiner Rice.

Graduation Card 

(Inside)

I used the #135380 Bravo stamp set and embossed in gold.

Just one more card in #105126 Elegant Eggplant and gold for another nephew. Whew! We are so blessed to have so many family members and friends graduating the Class of 2015!

And here is one more card that works great for Graduation from the same Bravo set. This card was definitely a hit at my workshop Labor Day Weekend 2014.

To make this card I used #135380 Bravo stamp set, #133519 Banner punch, #133787 Ittty Bitty Accents punch pack and Designer Series Paper Stacks.

Hope you enjoy...thanks for stopping by!

Hello! Hello! Hello! I am sorry I have been MIA the last few weeks. It has been crazy with the end of the school year...I feel like I am getting ready for Christmas trying to wrap up award ceremonies, games, family get-togethers and of course graduation.

Speaking of Graduation here is a new card with two color combos for you to try!

Graduation Cards

To make this card you will need the #137362 Balloon framelits, #133739 Large Polka Dot embossing folder, #109129 Gold, #109131 Silver embossing powder. To make the cap I used black cardstock 1" x 2.5" and found my center vertically and horizontally then cut on the diagonal from each point.

These were so fun and easy to make. On the inside I put a sweet graduate prayer in each card with money of course:o). Any color combo will work for your graduate! Stay tuned for more...

Hope you enjoy...thanks for stopping by!

Happy Mother's Day!

Hello and Happy Mother's Day to all you wonderful Moms! I had an AWESOME weekend with my family. And today I crafted in my jammies all day and here is what I worked on.

Sweet Treat Snap Box

I've seen this super cute treat box popping up all over Pinterest so I decided to make one. It was pretty simple and adorable! To make this box I used the #122334 Simply Scored Tool, #125598 Labels Framelits, #133787 Itty Bitty Accent Pack, and the #137783 Birthday Bash DSP. The stamp set is from the December Paper Pumpkin Kit.

I also made some additional cards for friends of the Mother's Day Card I cased last week. I simply changed the colors but used the same layout.

Hope you enjoy...thanks for stopping by!

Happy Saturday! Mother's Day is just around the corner and I wanted to show you an absolutely beautiful card I CASED from Inge Groot for the special Mom's in my life :o).

Mother's Day Card

This card has many layers but it is very simple to make. And the colors work so well together (bermuda bay, pool party and black).

 To bling or not to bling...here I added a few sequins.

  

 And here I added this fun #137910 Sequin Trim to the flower.

The supplies you will need to make this card are #130102  Deco Label Framelits, #137416 Ornate Tag Topper Punch, #133787 Itty Bitty Accents punches, #133322 Petite Petals Punch, #137779 Stacked with Love DSP and #130917 Beautifully Baroque Embossing Folder (which is on the retired list). 

TIP: To keep the sequins in place I added a little dab of Tombo Glue to the ends of the thread.

 

Hope you enjoy...thanks for stopping by!
