HAPPY BIRTHDAY

2011-09-19T09:27:00.000-07:00

Good Monday morning to everyone, I hope everyone had a blessed weekend. I saw this card on a friends blog and I had to try to make it. I'm not sure of the name of this card, but I call it Birthday Fold Surprise Card! I can't get the pictures to come into my computer in the right order, ut I'll try to explain them. The first picture is the front of the card with the tab lifted up (the tab folds into the flip in the front of the card). The second picture is the inside of the card, the third picture is the back of the card and the last picture is the front of the card. This was a fun card to make and I think it just a cute little card. Enjoy.

Get Well

2011-09-12T18:49:00.000-07:00

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

2011-09-08T10:25:00.000-07:00

Well everyone, I'm in a birthday mood because my 53rd birthday is coming up on September 10th! (no I don't mind everyone knowing my age because I'm totally blessed to reach another year older). Therefore, I'll be creating a few birthday cards to celebrate. I make this card using the largest Spellbinders label 8 cut die and I cut it so that the side wouldn't cut. On the base card, using the med size Spellbinders oval die, I cut a hole and I used the cut out and stamped Happy Birthday on it with 2 pearls and glued it inside the card. On the base of the card, I stamped some florals and placed 4 small pearls. That's it! Enjoy.

Comfort in the Spotlight

2011-09-01T09:42:00.000-07:00

On this card I was just playing around and was trying something different that is out of my comfort level. I was trying to create a southern setting in the spotlight. It turned out okay, but it could be a lot better. I cut out brown branchs from the Storybook cartridgeand placed them in each corner, the frame is the large Spellbinders Fleur De Lis Square. I printed the picture, colored it used prisma coloring pencils and OMS and then I sponged around the couch and table trying to show a light or spotlight around them. Lastly, I added some gold pearls. Your comments (good or bad) are welcomed.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

2011-08-31T09:56:00.000-07:00

I was in the birthday mood, so I made a simple quick and easy birthday card. I used red metallic paper (it looks pink due to the camera) and the bubble cuttlebug folder, the white card stock (layer) was cut at the bottom with a MS punch. I used a Spellbinders Label cut die and sponged it with red ink, stamped roses on it and stamped Happy Birthday. Enjoy.

Hope and Prayer

2011-08-29T09:33:00.000-07:00

Happy Monday everyone, I made this card to share some hope and prayers to everyone that had to deal with all the bad weather, high winds and floods. I pray that everything will come back to normal quickly for everyone.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

2011-08-10T09:01:00.000-07:00

IMPORTANT NEWS FIRST..after today, I will not posting new projects or visiting my blogger friends blogs until next week. My husband and I are going on a mini vacation for a few days. I'll visit everyone when I return. Now on to this card, I made this card for a very close friend of mind, her birthday is coming up this month. I wanted to make it simple, yet elegant, so I just used a few Spellbinders die cuts and a few stamps. Hope you enjoy and I see you when I get back.

The Serenity Prayer Card

2011-08-09T09:29:00.000-07:00

The other day, I was feeling a little out of touch with things and as I sat at the computer looking at the blank computer screen, the Serenity Prayer came to my mind. Therefore, I decided to make a card and label it "The Serenity Prayer". I used the tiny bubbles cuttlebug folder, Spellbinders Label 8 die, tiny blue pearls white ribbon and a small blue ribbon with white pearl heart.

Bible Card

2011-08-08T10:31:00.000-07:00

I am so "excited" that I was able to make this card!!! I saw this card on a friend's blog and because I'm a preachers kid, I just had to make it. It's an open book Bible and I just LOVE it! This card fits in an A2 envelope and it's a wonderful card to make and send to your loved ones. To make this card, the base (black card stock), I cut it @ 5 1/6" X 7 1/16", the top layer (lavender card stock), I cut @ 4 3/4" X 6 3/4". Use Spellbinders Label 7 to make this card. You will use the first 3 sizes of the die. On my card, I typed out the Lord's prayer on the base, I also typed the words on the Bible sheet. I added a small piece of ribbon to the Bible, added brads, stamped the praying hands, added a rose, lastly I added a little liquid pearls. If you want the step by step directions of how I made this card, just let me know.

Get Well

2011-08-02T16:21:00.000-07:00

I just wanted to make a simple and easy Get Well card.

Best Wishes

2011-08-01T09:50:00.000-07:00

Happy Monday everyone, I'm trying something new and that is sponging. It's not a new tech, but it's new for me to try it. I've been seeing several sponged cards and I decided it's time for me to try them and some far it's fun! What do you think about the card?

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

2011-07-27T13:26:00.000-07:00

This card fits an A2 envelope. The base card is lavender card stock, I used Spellbinders Fleur De Lis pendant, ran it through the cuttlebug and embossed it, then I cut it in half. The 1st layer is black card stock and I attached the 2 halfs of the Flue De Lis to each side. The 2nd layer is lavender card stock and I attached it to the 1st layer. Using the Storybook cartridge, I cut out the tulip frame @ 3 1/2" on accent/frame setting and used the bubbles cuttlebug folder. I cut out a circle using Spellbinder and embossed it. The words are computer generated and I added lavender liquid pearls.

I can do ALL things!

2011-07-25T10:46:00.000-07:00

Happy Monday everyone and I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. Yesterday (Sunday) was 18 years of "going together" for my husband and I. Yes we meet each other 18 years ago this past Sunday. I know that so people don't keep up with the first day they meet or started going with their husband :), but I do. My husband & I have been married for 13 years now and still deeply in love :)!

So I made this simple card yesterday, just to celebrate our 18 years of "going together"! Also, I just received some liquid pearl and I wanted to try them. On this card, the liquid pearl is a little messy, but when I use the liquid pearl again, it will be better. Thank God for sending me the man of my dreams... I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me!

Wedding Card

2011-07-22T12:41:00.000-07:00

Hello everyone and happy Friday to you! The wedding card...I made this card as follows:

the base card is on white card stock paper and cut at 5 11/16" X 8 1/2" and scored at 4 1/4" (the card fits an envelope size of 4 3/8" X 5 3/4"). I used the floral cuttlebug folder and cuttlebugged the entire card, at the very bottom of the card, I used my scor pal and scored 2 lines. I used Spellbinders lacey oval and embossed it, I cut out wedding rings on gold metallic paper using Potpourri Basket cartridge @ 1" (or 1 1/2" I forgot) then I cut out the man & woman within the heart using the Love Struck cartridge @ 2", I also cut out the black out shape of the heart in gold metallic paper for the back ground. Lastly, I added white pearl. Hope you like it!

2011-07-13T12:41:00.001-07:00

2011-07-13T10:07:00.000-07:00

I labeled this card as "Heart of Pearls" only because I haven't made up my mind what I'm going to use this card for. Not sure if I want to use it as a birthday, mother's day, get well card, or what?? The left the center of the heart blank because that's where the message will go. This is how I made this card:

First I printed and cut out the heart with 3-D leaves. The top layer is white card stock and I used a purple ink pad to spot color it, then I used the bubbles cuttlebug folder. I attached the heart and leaves picture to the top layer, used foam adhesives with the leaves to make them 3-d style, and then I added the medium white pearl and some purlpe gem pearls. Lastly, I used lavender stickles to finish the card.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

2011-07-11T14:30:00.000-07:00

I made this birthday card for my cousin Carla. She's a very sweet and lovable person! Her birthday is July 21st, I wanted to post it now in order to mail it within a couple of days as she lives in Maryland. I made this card by using an 8 1/2 X 11 sheet of card stock, cut it at 4 1/4" (cut it the long way) and score it at 5 1/2". I scored the card near the bottom, leaving enough room to stamp a message. I used the bubbles cuttlebug folder and stamped Happy Birthday with VersaMark and purple embossing powder. I used the Spellbinders lacey oval and the classic oval and stamped the rose with VersaMark and purple embossing powder. Lastly, I added purple pearls. Enjoy!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

2011-07-08T16:30:00.000-07:00

A Simple Birthday card. I used red embossing powder.

Misc

2011-07-07T10:34:00.000-07:00

A "just because" card. I have not titled this card because I'm not sure what I'm going to use it for.

Sympathy Card

2011-07-06T14:35:00.000-07:00

Another sympathy card. Simple black and white card with black embossing powder.

2011-07-05T16:11:00.000-07:00

I like this card, I was just trying to come up with new ideas for making cards and I thought it would be nice to build up my sympathy card batch. I don't like making sympathy cards because the purpose of the card is used for sad occasions, but I have to remember that we are not born to stay on this earth forever. To make this card, my base card is silver metallic card stock, the first layer is white card stock, top layer is silver metallic card stock and I used the tone on tone method. I used a large classic nestabilities oval, embossed it (so that it would not cut out), stamped the lilies on it with versamark, added silver embossing powder and heat set it. I used a smaller oval at the bottom and did the same as I did for the larger oval. I added silver pearls and that's it. Simple yet elegant sympathy card. This card could be made for Christmas, birthdays, Easter, etc. Hope you enjoy!

Happy Father's Day

2011-06-16T16:18:00.000-07:00

A Father's Day card I made for my loving sister to give to our dad. I live in Arizona and my sister lives in Michigan, she had a small injury and couldn't get out to buy a card for our father, so I made a card for her. Hope you like it.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

2011-06-07T14:24:00.000-07:00

Happy Birthday to Kelly. Kelly is my step daughter and I wanted to make a birthday card for her to make her feel special. Her birthday is not until June 29th so she won't see this card for a little while. Enjoy!

Sympathy Card

2011-06-06T13:33:00.000-07:00

A friend of my husband passed away in May.

Happy Father's Day From the Heart!

2011-06-05T15:09:00.000-07:00

This is a Father's Day card I made for my daddy! I wanted to make a different type of father's day card because on mother's day everyone always makes everything so nice and elegant for their mother..mothers always get everything & rightfully so because mothers are the salt of earth! I wanted to show and tell my dad exactly how I felt about him and I wanted to thank him for being my dad. Therefore, I made the greeting inside the card a little different because I had a lot to say and I also wanted to add a few words from my husband to my dad rather than make two fathers day cards. I hope you enjoy this card...do you think my dad will like the card?

Happy Mother's Day

2011-04-27T23:32:00.000-07:00

Happy Mother's Day. A card I made for my Mother-in-Law.

2011-04-27T23:31:00.000-07:00

Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day

2011-04-27T23:26:00.000-07:00

Happy Mother's Day! A card I made for Aunt Carole. Simple but cute.

Sympathy Card

2011-04-08T11:39:00.001-07:00

I really do not like making sympathy cards because that means that life has ended for someone. I know that the Bible says we were all born to die, but it's still hard to deal with. I made that sympathy card for a 2nd cousin of mine, her older sister died 3 weeks ago (I just found out about this) and the next older sister died this past Monday. It hard enough to deal with 1 sister passing on, but 2 sisters in less than a month???? I pray for my cousin!

Happy Valentine's Day

Happy Valentine's Day

2011-03-05T11:15:00.000-08:00

Happy Valentine's!! Okay, I'm very late in posting my Valentine cards, please forget me but I've been very, very busy doing every day life things. I've been making cards but I haven't had time to post them. Therefore you will see a "lot" of late postings for Valentine's, birthday's, etc.

I used a cuttlebug folder on the bottom of the card, spellbinders folder for the frame of the card and the Bible, the praying hands and the Happy Birthday words are stamps that were embossed with red embossing powder and heated. Lastly I used a red ribbon across the middle of the card.

2010-12-01T15:25:00.000-08:00

Chirstmas time is here and snow is falling, the trees are getting their white snow coats and the world is full of hope and cheer! I made this simple easy card to give to a family member. I used white embossing powder and heated it. The snow flakes and the words Merry Christmas as stamps. Enjoy.

God Called our Pet Home!

2010-10-22T09:33:00.000-07:00

On October 16th, God called our wonderful "beloved" Reginald home! That was a very sad, sad day for my husband and I. We've had Reginald for 13 years and he was always full of life, fun and love. We will miss him. Some people would say, it's just a dog...but when you've had a pet for a long time, the pet becomes a part of your family. I made this card to get to the animal hospital doctor and her staff for taking very good card of our Reginald through the years. When Reginald passed away, the veterinarian (Dr. White) cried with us, as it was a sad day for her also. Reginald is resting in the arms of the Lord now...we love you Reg and will truly miss you!

Thinking of You

2010-10-05T11:12:00.001-07:00

I made this card for a very close friend of mine. She "loves" Halloween, as a matter of fact Halloween is her favorite holiday! She moved far away from me and we don't get a chance to see each other like we used to, so I thought it would be nice to make a simple Halloween "thinking of you" card for her.

Get Well

2010-09-17T15:10:00.001-07:00

As soon as you walk in the doors of the Church, she's always right there to greet you with a heart felt smile! I'm wishing her speedy recovery from her surgery.

(1) I've heard so many people talk about how old they feel (2) my wonderful aunt sent a very nice email to me with some of the messages shown on this card. It touched me, so I made the card to help others know that just because your age is older, you can always feel younger!

Get Well

2010-06-28T11:29:00.001-07:00

Happy "Blessed" Monday everyone! I made this "Get Well" card for a cousin that has to have surgery this week. She has cerebral palsy and has gone through several operations during her life time. She's a very sweet person and our family is praying for her.

Wedding Card

2010-06-23T11:01:00.000-07:00

A simple yet nice wedding card. The ring was cut from the Wedding cartridge and I used a cuttlebug folder for the front of the card. I added light blue gem flat back pearls and added a blue ribbon. Enjoy!

Sympathy Card

2010-06-21T10:43:00.001-07:00

A blogger friend of mine made a card like this one due to her son. One day her son emailed the words shown on this card to her because it was on his mind to send it to his mother. One week after he sent these words to his mother, he was in a very bad car accident and died. When I saw this card I just had to make it, but I changed it a little. This card has a lot of meaning to it!

Morning Glory!

2010-06-18T11:10:00.001-07:00

Happy Friday Everyone! I call this card "Morning Glory", why I don't know maybe because I can't think of anything else to name it (smile). I was just playing around and decided to see how a card would look with a gray card base and silver metallic paper top layer (of which I used a cuttlebug folder on ) and a silver metallic cut of Spellbinder lattice pendant. I cut a oval shape and stamped the flower, colored it used prismacoloring pencils and OMS and then added clear stickle on the flower. I also added a little yellow shading around the flower to give the flower a little kick. I left a little room near the botom of the card to add hapy birthday/ anniversary, etc. This card can be used for any affair. Do you like it????

2010-06-16T17:44:00.000-07:00

This card was made for a friend of mine, his pastor is celebrating 14 years of preaching God's word!

Happy Birthday

2010-06-15T11:12:00.001-07:00

Just a simple quick birthday card I made for my 13 year old niece. I used the cuttlebug floral for the background (that I should have used on the dress, but I forgot!), yellow ribbon, red & yellow pebbles on the dress and Happy Birthday is a stamp.

Happy Birthday

2010-06-10T12:31:00.001-07:00

Mother's Day Card for the Church

2010-05-06T09:35:00.000-07:00

This is a "huge" Mother's Day card!!!! My dad is an assistant minister of a Church and he asked me to make a Mother's day card for all of the mothers of the Church. Instead of creating a normal size card, I decided to make a huge card. The hearts and scalloped frame were cut from spellbinders and the everything else is from the Mother's day cartridge. I added a few red ribbons, some large flat back white pearls, some small silver pearls and some gold stickles.
Do you think the Mother's of the Church will like this card?

A Rose Mother's Day

2010-05-05T09:47:00.000-07:00

On this Mother's Day card, I tried something a little different. The center oval scallops were cut with spellbinders, the rose is a stamp and I colored it with prisma coloring pencils and OMS, then I added some ultra thick embossing enamel and heat it. The thick embossing enamel was added and heated 3 times to give the rose a glossy shiny look. I added a blue ribbon acrioss the top of the card and 3 large flat back pearls. I used the floral cuttlebug folder for the background and the words "Happy Mother's day" is a stamp and I added 4 small white pearls.

Red & Black Mother's Day Card

2010-05-04T11:07:00.000-07:00

I know that normally you won't see a red & black Mother's Day card, but I thought I'd think out side of the box a little bit. I used the floral cuttlebug folder, the floral leaves on the sides is a stamp, the black frame and the heart are spellbinders cut out (as you know I "LOVE" spellbinders), I also added silver flat back pearls. Enjoy!

Window Mother's Day Card

2010-05-03T09:48:00.000-07:00

Another Mother's Day card.. on this card I used Spellbinders impressabilties with dark green cardstock to bring the focus of the card to the pink rose in the center. The pink is is 3 D and I added dazzling diamonds along the edges of the rose with large white flat back pearls. On the side of the card, I used light green cardstock and added florals cut from storybook cut @2" and I used the Mother's day cart for the words "Happy Mother's Day" and added a few flat back pink pearls. I added light green/white & pink/white bows on the bottom of the card with a pink ribbon and pink gemstones on each corner.

Happy Mother's Day

2010-04-27T09:46:00.001-07:00

The Floral is from Storybook and the large hearts are from PS. I used blue, green & silver ribbon and a lace white ribbon across the bottom of the card, white and green flat back pearls and the butterfly is a MS hand punch. The words "Happy Mother's Day" is from the Mother's Day cart.

Happy Mother's Day

2010-04-26T09:26:00.001-07:00

Happy Monday to everyone. Well, Mother's day is coming up and I will have several Mother's day cards to show you. I'll be posting 1 per day.

Happy Mother's Day Momma!

2010-04-25T13:47:00.001-07:00

This is a "very special" Mother's day card for me. I have made several Mother's day cards for friends and family, but this year I wanted to make a Mother's day card for my momma! You see this is a card that my mother will only see in spirit, because she passed away on March 15, 1995. Her passing was "THE" most worst thing I've ever had to deal with!! That's why I know that there is a God..God will heal your heart and provide the strength you need to carry on in life. When no one else could speak sorrow words to you during the passing of a loved one, God's words flows through heart, HE raps you within His arms and tells you that everything is going to be alright! Happy Mother's Momma!! I love you and I miss you dearly!

Every Which Way Front to Back Gold Flowers

2010-04-21T12:21:00.001-07:00

Happy Wednesday everyone! Okay, I got a little crazy with this card, and I just wanted to have a little fun with it. I call this card "Every Which Way Front to Back Gold Flowers" because the flowers are everywhere, they going in all directions on the front, back and inside the card. Funny huh? The scallops on the front of the card were cut from wild card @ 7" and the scallops on the back of the card was cut @12". The florish is from storybook and cut @2" & the one on the back was cut @4". I used gold metallic paper, and the flowers inside the circles is a stamp and was embrossed with gold powder, as well as the line of flowers. The words Love You as well as the word on the front of the card are stamps. Just having a little card making fun!! Enjoy.

A Message Card

2010-04-20T11:14:00.001-07:00

I call this "A Message Card" because it's just a simple card that says a message! If you can't see the words clearly, the message is: "Say something good to someone today, smile... YOU are Blessed, why not Bless someone else!!" Powerful message that I thought was needed for today's card. I used Spellbinder frame and added silver pearls and red gem rhinestones.

Happiness Always

2010-04-19T14:00:00.001-07:00

Happy Monday everyone! On this card I used the Storybook cart for the bird, branch and the butterflies. I used Martha Steward punch for the lace, Spellbinders for both frame squares, added yellow ribbon and a big yellow bow, added 3 yellow & white little bows ( I'm going to remove the little yellow & white bow under the big bow because I don't like it there.) Enjoy.

2010-04-13T11:54:00.001-07:00

This is a 3D red rose card for you! I have not added a label to the card yet, because I'm not sure what I'm going to use this card for. Once the occasion comes up to use this card, then I will label it. I used spellbinders frame and cut out the 3D rose and used pop up dots to help give it the 3D look. The branchs are from Storybook cut @ 1/2"

Happy Birthday

2010-04-07T11:33:00.001-07:00

Happy Birthday to Mary, my Stampin Up rep/demonstrator! Her birthday is within this month and I probably shouldn't have posted this card until I sent it to her incase she visits my blog and sees it before she receives it, but I couldn't wait. Mary is such a sweet and kind person and she's the most "blessed" and honest person I know! You can't really see the oval & the heart shine due to the camera shot, but the oval and the heart shines very much because I've added thick embossing enamel to it and heated it 3 times. Happy Birthday Mary!!
