Birthday Card...

This card I made for my girlfriend. She turned 50!!! But I was nice and made her a nice card for the occasion.

Bridal Shower....

Here is the sign I made for the bridal shower we had at work for our friend.

Pre-Wedding....

I made this for a friend of mine that is getting married. It is the card to take to work so everyone can sign it for her.

Random class cards...

Here are some cards that I colored in for my classes at my LSS. Susie, the owner, put together all of the cards except the brayer card...that one is completely mine.

The brayer card is going to be offered in January as a class. You will receive the tree stamp as part of the class.

This is a kissing technique that will also be offered in January....you get 2 stamps with this class and will make 10 cards.

This is a January (advanced) class for coloring with Copics.

This is the other advanced Copics class for January.

This is one of the advanced Copics classes for February.

And last, but not least, the other advanced Copics class for February.

GOOOO BUCKS!!!!

Here is a card I made for my nephew....who is also my Godson. We are both fans of the Buckeyes so what better to give him than a gift card to our local Buckeyes store all done up in a Buckeyes card??!! He loved it!!! ( I learned this card technique from none other than Jennifer McGuire at one of her classes....I love that girl!!!!)

Money card....

I lifted a couple different card ideas from Jennifer McGuire and created this card for my Mom for part of her Christmas gifts.

Kissing Technique

This is the kissing technique on both of these. I did it a little different on each one. They are not mounted on a card yet....I made them for samples of the technique.

You're The Best!!!!

I love her!!!! I really love the new little girl stamps...nice to color in with my Copics. I made the background, too....it is a stamp that I stamped with multiple inks and then I shimmered it.

Hello card....

I did some embossing on this card......and layered on some more embossing. I love how it turned out!

Wheat....

I did this card as a make-n-take at the store for the big unveiling party over the weekend. I don't know if you can tell, but the wheat is shimmery....love it!!!

Notebook Page Card

I love this stamp! It is a page and I just inked it up and cut the edge with a border punch.

Nothing Fancy.....

Nothing real fancy....I think it needs soemthing.... This is a sample I made for the store. The sentiment is actually stamped on the insideof the card.

Snowman Card

I didn't actually make this card....I just colored in the image! My friend, Susie...the owner of my LSS, actually put the card together. This is my next project at the store!

Jennifer McGuire Holiday Cards....

Here are the cards from the 2nd class today......

This is a treat bag....I love these bags...so cute and sooooo easy to make!!

I made this one on the dark side, but I think it would make a good man-card.

This card is clear....love it!!! AND the scarf is made out of a folded $20 bill (fake here but makes a really cute idea to give money!!!).

She turned this card outside in. Very cute idea! She made this by stacking stamps to shape a tree! (This was an extra card she gave us to take home and put together).

Very cute card....I love the colors in this one. The middle circle was actually stamped with pearlized water and it pushed the ink out of the way....I love the look of it.

This next card is a gift card holder....VERY cool!!!! The middle part on the front of the card is actually a slot to put the card in....I love this!! (And, no, that is not a real credit card....used to be a long time ago....I save all of that kind of stuff to use as props).

Jennifer McGuire....again!!

I went to another Jennifer McGuire class today....well, actually 2 of them. She was teaching in Columbus (Ohio) at a big weekend crop. Her classes did not fill up...GASP!!!....so they opened them up to the public....Yay for me!!!
The first class was a technique class and the 2nd was Holiday cards. I will now share my creations!!
These were from the technique class:
She gave us 2 butterfly's for this card so we could choose which one to use.....I elected to stack them and use both!

This card opens 1 inch from the edge...hard to see it in the pic. We pearlized the butterfly so I took a close up of that so maybe you could see it better.

The card opens right above the striped cardstock. I never wanted this flower stamp but now I think I "need" it....haha.

This one has a circle cut-out on the front of the card. I like how you can see the sentiment through the circle but it's on the inside of the card.

This one opens 1 inch from the edge, also. I took the 2nd picture trying to show you that.

I love this card. I like the shape of it....it's so different!!

Gypsy Contest.....

I made a lay out for the Gypsy contest. This is my granddaughter, Jayde. I am making an abc scrapbook for her. The pages will rhyme with each other....like a and b will rhyme....c and d will rhyme, etc... So, this is the  "S" page and it rhymes with the "T" page. Together they will read "S is for smile to chase away your woes" (turn the page) "T is for ten, tiny fingers and toes." On the "T" page I have pics of her feet and fingers from when she was 3 days old. I have a ways to go on it, but thanks to the challenge, I have one more set of pages done!!

This contest is open for voting until midnight October 29th. Go here to vote for my layout:

Butterflies.....

I think this one my be my favorite of my latest cards....I don't know because I really like the last one, too....

But this was made with one stamp. (Oh, the "Hello" is a different stamp). I stamped it, then stamped the butterflies again, colored them in and cut them out. I pulled up the wings to make it 3-d....turned out very nice! (I always shock myself when I really like something I make...lol)

 

More new stamps.....

I really love this card! Iused 4 different stamps to create it. Everything is cut out and put on the background stamp. It took me forever (at least it seemed like forever) to cut out those flowers!! Cuting around those leaves was very tedious, but worth it, I think  :)

Snowman.....

I reall didn't like this stamp at first, but now that I am stamping with it and coloring it in, I love him!! He is so cute!! I don't know why I didn't like him.....

Star Box

This is my very first star box....I could not believe how easy it is to make!! I made it with a gift tag on it so all it needs now is a present!!!

Snowman....

Another snowman image. I changed it up a bit. The other one I made for the store had some off color markers in it so I did another one with different color markers to see how it would turn out.
What cha think??

Winter Card

I hate winter....worse with every year. Probably because I am getting older and I just hate driving in it now. It was fun when I was younger....probably because I thought I was invincible and had no fears...now it is just a pain.
But, I still love to make wintery cards! So, I hope you enjoy this one!!
Sorry, they didn't turn out very well in the pics....the card stock is all shimmery and is VERY pretty in person!

Snowman

I love this card! This has to be one of my favorites, I think. I love these stamps, they are so cute and fun to color.

Poinsettas

This is something else I made for the LSS. This card was stamped on the entire card for the background. I made the stem from a branch cut out and the flowers are poinsettas. I just folded them to make them 3-d. The leaves were made from the same flowers. I just smooshed ink into them and cut them up.

Snowman card

I have been making samples for my LSS for her open house which is next weekend (October 24th and 25th). This is a snowman card I made....love the little snowman!! Colored him in with markers and stamped and heat embossed the words.

Frankie!!

This is a card I entered for a contest....I came in 3rd :( but that is better than not winning aything! I love this card!!
