The last one...

Here's a card I made for my friend, May...

It's such a simple one-layer card...


Whisper White paper, Garden Green, Wild Wasabi, Certainly Celery (inks)

Catching up....


I know I've been MIA as of late...that spring weather through me into a tailspin!  I fixed up my yard and spent days getting the kids' summer clothes organized (and with 4 of them, you can imagine the enormity of the task!)

Here are the rest of the cards I made for the kids for St. Pat's Day...giving them individual cards for Valentine's Day was such a hit, that I made them each a St. Pats' Day card...

SIDE NOTE: I forgot to give them these cards on the actual holiday and only found them while trying to get back into stamping mode about 5 days later!!! Oh well...better late than never!

Not quite what I thought...

My fellow stamper, Brenda, made this card in shades of brown and mustard...and I thought that I would change up the color combo...but it didn't have the same effect...but still nice...


Rich Razzleberry, Pretty in Pink, Whisper White

Purple Mother's Day...

Here's a different version of the same card I have shown, but this one uses the rectangular embossing folder...I rounded the corners of the embossed piece...still love the oval sooooo much better!


Concord Crush,  Wysteria Wonder, Whisper White

Poppy pair...

I love Poppy Parade!  And I love how it works with Pretty in Pink...I'm usually not into pink and red, but these 2 colors work...

More oval embossing....

I saw a layout similar to this on Artfeltimpressions back in October and have been waiting to try it...

The color combo is straight from the Color Coach...

So Saffron, Poppy Parade, Baja Breeze


I screwed up a little but didn't feel like redoing the card...I grabbed a sponged to sponge the edge of the Baja Breeze center flag, but it had some green ink on it...it isn't that noticeable--sort of blends in...but it might just bother me to much...so I might just change it!

Same card, different paper...

...different sentiment...still went back and added a brad at the point where the sentiment is tucked under the strip of paper...

A thank you card for my tax man...
