"Spring"

Made this card for a couple of Challenges.  I love butterflies if you follow my blog.  I love this DCWV paper from a paper pack.  I made the butterflies with a punch and added some pearls.  The flowers came from the scrap box and added a button in the middle. The saying came from my sweet friends stamp set.  Thanks Kristal.  Thanks for the challenge Mary.  Hope you enjoy and please leave a comment because we all love comments.

Scrappy Valentine

This is the last "Valentine" card for this year.  I was using up some scraps in my box. The paper is MS. I love the hearts.  The large strip across the bottom of the card is from freebie paper from Cardmaking and Papercrafts.  My new all time favorite magazine.  The stamp is from the "It's Valentines! set from my sweet friend Kristal Andrews stamps.  This was a rush "Valentine".  I am giving this with a box of candy to one of the sweetest ladies. She helps me more than she will ever know.

Deepest Sympathy

This card was made for a friend who lost her Dad in January.  This is the hardest type of card to make in my opinion. The base was black layered with a print of black and white flower paper.  The sayings on the outside and inside were from a set of stamps from K. Andrews called "Sympathetic Sayings"........... I added flower and red centers to give just a little bit of color. I had some ribbon that I got at "Big Lot's". I hope she will like it.  Please leave a comment because we all love comments.

Before I continue on with Fall at my house. I needed to post this card so I can mail it tomorrow.  My mom is 84 years young and she lost her brother in September. I always have a hard time making these type of cards. My Aunt loves birds. I love B&W cards with just a little color. The saying on the outside and inside are from Kristal Andrews stamp set. I love this set of stamp and use it when I am at a loss for words. Please leave a comment because we all love comments. The adventure of Fall at my house starts tomorrow. Hope you will come back and visit...

Since butterflies are my favorite how much better can it get.  I used a punch for the butterflies and the larger ones have solid colored bottoms and multicolored tops. They are on pop dots and layers.  I used small hearts on them in the centers. The stamp is from "K.

"I Do"

This was made for a challenge over at Getting Cricky.  I went outside my norm which is making cards. This is a shadow box for a "Wedding".  I have all this wonderful old fashion paper with shade of purple and green. Which if you know anything about me you know I love purple.  I covered the foam with old fashion paper. I then pined the invitation to the foam with fancy pearl covered pins. I cut the "I Do" with my Circut.  I used a K. Andrew stamp under that to put "Always & Forever".  I then attached some flowers in hues of purple with orange and pearl centers. This came together quickly. It can be a picture on the table or hung on the wall.  I hope she likes it. Please leave a comment because we all love comments.

"Whoo Love's You Baby"

I made this for a challenge over at "Going Buggy".  My friend Enfys is have a contest. Be sure and visit her "Awesome" blog.  This is my first Valentine for the year. It has a few of my favorite things! The paper is K & Co. and has shinny hearts along with her  borders which are glittered.  The stamp is from K. Andrew Stamps a combination of the Owl set along with the sayings. Be sure and visit her blog. Just click on her site on my main page. One of the other things is this was inspired by my friend "Tracey" because of all the hearts. If you know anything about me is I always try to put a butterfly on my card somewhere because of my love for them. Hope you like the card and be sure and leave a comment because we all love comments.

Friendship

This was an idea that I have had for awhile. I finally got a cartridge with a house on it to do this. The cartridge is " Cricut List Love You a Latte".  The name of the coffee shop is  "Java Joe" this is from the stamp set "Coffee & Tea For You & Me" from KAndrews Designs. I have a link to her blog on the left side of my blog. The ink is from "Memento and the color is Bahama Blue.   This was such a fun card to do with all the pieces.

Dreams...........

I saw this card in the "Cricut Cards" magazine that I won and just loved it. I love the hot air balloon. This was a great idea made from 3 different Cricut cartridges. The book did not have a cartridge listed for the clouds. I used "Straight From The Nest" for the balloon which on the cartridge is a "Birdcage".  The bottom of the balloon is from the same cartridge and is a "Flowerpot".  Punch holes in both and used Embroidery thread in green.  Put the entire thing on pop dots and this is what I got. I used another cut for the dolly from "Easter Seasonal".  Clouds from "April Showers" with different blue papers and layered them. Background paper from a stack from "Big Lots" in a pattern blue. This card is an odd size 5 X 8.  I have never made a card this size...I am thinking about adding a pearl to each cloud. The saying is from Kristal Andrew stamp set "Winged Things".  This stamp set is full of so many possibilities. Visit her blog and tell her you saw my card: http://www.kandrewdesigns.com/  Hope you enjoy this card and please leave a comment because we all love comments.
