New Projects to Share

It has been a very long time since I last added projects.  I guess that's what happens when you get busy.  Today I've added some Mother's Day cards I made for my Mom, sister and niece using some new stuff I picked up recently.

This one was made for my Mom.  I used the We R Memory Keepers Envelope Punch board and Fancy Pants Park Bench papers.  I also just got the Sizzix Triplits Flower dies and had such fun making all these layered flowers.  Needless to say, she loved the card.

This next card was made for my Sister.

I used Echo Park For the Record 2 paper, Prima flowers, Lawn Fawn stamp and die (leaves) and some old My Mind's Eye ribbon I had laying around.

These last two were for my niece and my sister in law:

 I'll try not to let too much time go by before adding more projects to my blog.  Thanks for visiting.

A Card for Presley

It's been a hot summer and I haven't been spending too much time in my scrap cave since it's very hot upstairs.  I did find time to create this cute birthday card for my nephew, Presley using some of my favorite October Afternoon paper -- Cake Walk.

I am entering it into sketch challenge #34 at the Paper Girls Challenge Blog which you can find here:  http://thepapergirlschallenge.blogspot.com/2013/06/challenge-34.html


In addition to the Cakewalk paper and embellishments, I also used some cool chipboard stars from UmWow Studios, AC Thickers, Authentique letters and background paper from Echo Park.  I'm sure Presley will like the little raccoon.

Here's a photo of him. He lives in Ohio and we don't get to see him very often so I always try to make something special to send him for his birthday.  His birthday isn't until November so I better put this somewhere I won't forget -- that would be just like me to have it done this early and then not be able to find it come November.  Ha!
