Pictures vs. Money

This is the Father's Day card I made from my sister to my brother-in-law. The front says "A Dad carries pictures where his money used to be". I've wanted to used that quote for a card from him since I found it!! I wanted it to look like one of the plastic photo holders that go into walets for photos.. so here it is.. enjoy.

Color Inspiration #55

This is my first Color Inspiration! I love Kristina Werner's site, I'm on it everyday. I love everything she does, I can't express it enough, lol. So I thought I'd give the Color Inspiration Challenge a try this week. Thanks for peeking!


You touched my <3

This card was fun to make! Here's the link.. give it a try!!
I LOVE this paper. It's in DCWV recycled stack.


Uncle Greg & Klayre

For every holiday I make my niece a 3 x 3 card for that occasion. This "occasion" was that for 6 months I've watched her 2-3 times a week while my sister taught 2nd grade. Now it's summer, so she gets to be home with her. So this card is for her, I'm going to write her a little message about how much fun we had! All the mini cards I make her, she's not allowed to open until she's 18. Which will make me...... I can add that high, sorry. Enjoy the card!
This is the card I made for my Uncle Greg from my Grandma. I used the "Old Guys Rule" Paper because him and some other members of our family have the shirts, so I thought it would be perfect.

CPS #119

This is the sketch challenge this week at CPS.
Here's my take on it.. thanks for peeking!



My flower butterfly! I used 1 1/2 flowers and a bookplate for the "body" and ribbon for the antennas.

The rub-ons are from Bo Bunny. I was going to use my cousins intials for the circles, but I didn't have her middle intial, so I used a super big brad and used a congratulations rub-on.


A bunch of cards!

So, I'm a little behind on adding cards on here. So here's all my new ones, enjoy!



The gold flower on this this card is a piece of vintage jewelry from Ohio.











Makayla's 1st Birthday

A customer asked what the biggest card I could make was. She wanted a card for her Grand-Daughter's first Birthday. So I found the biggest envelope I could and went from there. It's 8 1/2 x 11 1/2.

I was bummed to find out that my picture of the whole card came out blurry! But here it is anyway.. and some detail shots that are unblurry!

Flower Kick

It seems like I'm on a flower kick these days! First the layered flowers for the baby's layout, then the photo turn one, and now Dahlia Flowers. My friend Amanda on scrapbook.com makes these on the cards she makes and they're just gorgeous. I wanted to see how they would look with a scallop punch, since they're usually done with a regular circle punch. This is how my 1st batch of Dahlia Flowers turned out.

Photo Turn Flower!

I've wanted to make a flower using photo turns for a while. I love how it turned out!!
I'm not so sure about the rest of the card though. What do you think?
Before you see the pictures.. this flower has a funny story attached to it!
I took out 7 photo corners about a week ago, put them on my desk.. and when i went to use them a couple days later, they were no where to be found. Not on my desk, not on my floor.. no where. So a couple days later I went to put my ipod back in it's case, which has a magnet closure on it, and when i turned it over, there were my photo turns!!!



I hand stitched the stems.

21

A customer needed a card for her Grand-daughter, I made that one, then her Mom wanted one for her daughter also! So this is that one.

I used crackle accents on the yellow rose and glossy accents on the lips and some of the X's and on the shadow of the 21 on the white cardstock. The put stickles on the numbers.


It has toule covering the pink cardstock, just for some extra texture.

Layers Of Love

I can't remember what the last layout I made was. I literally can not remember.. and I have a great memory, no matter what anyone else says, lol. I think my last one may have been in July. So it's been a while! I signed up for a Cosmo Cricket Challenge on the scrapbook site so I would HAVE to do one. It's not that I don't like doing layouts, but I'm more into cards now!!

The challenge was to use 95% Cosmo Cricket Products and lots of buttons. The buttons could be any manufacturer and would not count in the 95%.
First, the story on the picture! It was not my intent to make her look like a little old lady, really!! First she had a dress on.. it got a little cooler, so we put leggings on, then socks, then her sweater. She has super tight curls but since it was so cool, I didn't want to wet her hair, so I put her hair up in what we call "puffies".

I love these flowers. They were different Cosmo Cricket papers, even the vellum was from them! I cut them out on the cricut and distressed the heck out of them! I wanted the edges to be white, so i did that first them randomly did other spots. I think if I hadn't done the edges, it wouldn't have taken so long, but it was totally worth it!
This "LOVE" was a part of Cosmo Cricket's "Honey Pie" collection, named Isabel. Yes, I cut it all out, lol. Some with scissors, but mostly with an exacto.

The scallops and the turquoise paper were from a Cosmo Cricket kit I got from HSN a while back. My Mom got it for me for my Birthday I believe it was. And the buttons are just random butons I liked!

Thanks for peeking!!
