Here are a few cards that I was able to squeeze in between traveling to New Hampshire to see my son graduate from college and lounging around back home in Florida.


I made the card below at my Stamp Club meeting. One of our members showed us all how to do embroidered cards. We have our meetings at the Lakeland Library and would love to have more people join us. It's very casual, we had some fabulous cards to share during our show-and-tell.

I love how this tri-f0ld-card came out.
I'll have to make another to sendto someone . . any takers?

Thanks for stopping by

Today's card is from the Embrace Life set. I had made these flowers awhile ago and they have just been sitting on my desk waiting for a home. I decide to check the SUs color coach, that my upline forced me to buy (thank you Vivian) and found the complimentary color for Brilliant Blue was Only Orange. I had Only Orange card stock and ribbon..yay! So the flowers that I had embossed then colored with SU watercolor crayons and a blender pen found their home.

recipe:

Stamps: Embrace Life
Paper: Only Orange, Brilliant Blue and White
Ink: none. Watercolor crayons
Accessories: Ticket corner punch, embossing powder, versamark, 1/4" Only Orange grosgrain ribbon, white gel pen, brads, blender pen & dimenstionals

I hope everyone had a great Easter. We spent ours with my parents and Aunt Lou. Easter dinner is always so yummy! The weather was so beautiful that after we ate we spent the rest of the day outside.
I made this card the day before, but because it was raining, I didn't take a picture. It's done with the Embrace Life set. I didn't like this set at first but it has grown on me.
Have a great Monday.

Hello all. It's been a busy week here. My husband's family has come to stay the week and go to Disney five days out of the week.
AND I received my first big order from SU and have been trying to organize everything, but I am never satisfied. So I promised myself that I would make a card today to get back into the swing of making a card everyday.
So here is my results for the day. I cased the card from Candy and for the first time I can tell you all the products I used.
I used Very vanilla and watercolor paper. I sponged all sides with chocolate chip and rose red. I stamped the background paper with Embrace Life, colored it in with watercolor pencils then cut into sections and sponged. I then used chocolate chip ink and stamped the bird, butterfly, flower and sentiment from Touch of Nature, onto the watercolor paper. Cut them out and popped them all with dimensionals. Then ta da!!
