Heritage Card

Hello everyone,
     Today, I am showing my Heritage card.  This card also inspired by Debbie is one that Lesia (my CM BFF) did one weekend.  On this card I used a Sizzix embossing folder (sorry I can't find the name), Sizzix embossing trio Loving Thoughts, SB Grand Labels, Floral Ovals and Fancy Tags.  The picture is from the net, greeting printed from Word, the poem from the net by Langston Hughes.

Perfect Details texturz plate ( I think this one is retired), SB Labels Twenty-Two, SB Fancy Lattice die, Sizzix die Branch w/Leaves, Memory Box Woodland Branch die, WOC flowers, the patterned paper is Pink Paisley's Butterfly Garden.  My Cream CS will always be Hobby Lobby and the white CS Michael's Recollection brand (that is unless they stop making them).

Cherry Lynn Lattice Card

Howdy folks,
    Today, I finished a card that I started at the beginning of the week.  If you truly wanted to be amazed by a talented card maker, you have to see Debbie Stevens site Paper Pastimes she is also on Facebook.  All I can say is WOW!  Debbie has become my new inspiration as you will see by today's card.   I used the Spellbinders (SB) Grand Squares, mounted on some card stock from my stash, Matting CS and patterned paper are from Hobby Lobby (HB) .  My borders are cut to about 1/16th of an inch.  The embossing folder is from SB it's called Dainty Dots.  I used SB Classic Squares Lg, SB Flourish Trim (Die Delite), Die-Namics Fancy Flourish, Martha Stewart (MS) Rose Punch, and Wild Orchid Craft (WOC) Roses. The greeting and sentiment are from the Stampin' UP! (SU) Rue Des Fleurs.   Have a great day everyone.

Forever Young Birthday Card

Hi All,
    I'm back again! Today, I want to share a card that I made for a co-worker's b-day (Happy Birthday Di!).  I saw the card while surfing for ideas on Google Images. I hadn't played with my Cricut in awhile and I love that Forever Young cart, so I thought I would use it for this project.  My inspiration came from Billie over at ScrapbookPal.com .  This was a card Billie did back in August of 2012.  I totally love her layout and thought it would be perfect for Di's card.  I developed the inside myself.  I loved the paperline (another great Hobby Lobby find).  The gift card packaging was kind of large so, I couldn't go with the standard way of making a pocket.  I used one of Kathy Orta's ideas for creating a pocket that would tolerate some bulkiness.  I think the card turned out nice and it went really quick too!  Not a lot fluff but still very nice.   Well, here are a few pictures; I hope you enjoy them and feel inspired to break out any electronic cutting machine you haven't played with in awhile... I haven't entered any challenges in a bit; today I have a little extra time; so I'm on the challenge prowl.  Okay, I changed my mind, I now remember why I stopped entering challenges...It's just too much work!! I'll have to take my chances that folks will find my work on the net and come see, just like I do.  Have a great weekend everybody.

Blocks Card

Hey my favorite folks!
    It's been awhile but you know I can't leave you for too long.  Today, I want to share a card that was inspired by Papercrafter 45  and Lesia from Memas Crafts called a "Blocks Card".  The card looks complicated when you watch the video on You Tube but it really is super easy; you can even include a base (which I did not), to sit it on as a display.  I also chose to stand my card differently because I wanted to make it hold flowers.  This was a quick, simple and fun little card.   I hope you will be inspired to give it a try.  Until next time...
