Thinking of You


My goodness! Where has the time gone??? I meant to have this one posted awhile ago and just saw that it is waiting to be posted....oops! I still have a few more cards from my classes to post on here with another 3 to add from last night....got to get back into routine! Of course it would help to have a camera that would work and not need to borrow the daughters camera!

So, for the card, I made this a few months ago at a friends house to show off this set.....It happens to be one of my favorite images with so many occasions to use it for! We used blender pens with the ink pads to color the tree and leaves (they were very kind and did not mind that much work) Then we stamped the sentiment and layered it onto the card. Very simple but pretty.

Thanks for stopping by and I will try to get those other cards posted very soon, so make sure and check back! Thanks for all the comments as well!!!

Butterfly Birthday

This is a card I made up earlier this year and just found on my computer....love when that happens. I used the butterfly die from SU and then ran those thru my cuttlebug with the swiss dots folder, added a little swirl that I pierced and a sentiment.....easy peasy!

Thanks for stopping by today, I will be back soon with some more cards from my last class.

silhouette card


This picture is not that great, could not get it to focus correctly....but you can still see how great the card turned out. We made this card at my last card class, tonight is my card class for this month and I have some awesome cards to share next week from it! This card is made with all SU products and the retired Central Park set, such a simple but beautiful card. I left the sentiment off of my card so I can use it for anything.

Thanks for stopping by. Have a great day!

Continuation Card

My daughter completed Elementary school in early June and this is the card I made for her. This card is just so her, she LOVED it! We gave her a nice Fossil watch for her gift and then the family took her out for a late breakfast, it was a very nice day! I still can not believe that she is done with 6th grade....she is growing up too fast!!!!

The brad inside the bow is the only thing that attaches the image, so it rotates around. I used the labels one nestie for the pink layer and I stamped the skull and sentiment in Stazon on acetate.

Thanks for stopping by!

At my last stamp camp we made this cute card using the Fifth Ave Floral SU stamps. We used the masking technique to make the rose pop....so pretty!

12x12 Color Block Page


Hi there! Glad you came back to check out what else I have been doing! I did not get this done in May as I was supposed to, but sometimes life happens and you just need to go with the flow! For my very last CC&M project I selected a color block page in Double Mates Heritage. This type of die cut can be very helpful when working on scrapbooks and it really helps cut down on design time. I made this page for my 2003 album, I try to get caught up to current dates and then work on older albums so 2003 will be my next to attack when I get caught up! I can't believe how big my girls are now compared to these pictures!


Sorry for the bad angle and glare on the pic, it is hard to get a good shot of scrapbook pages with all those pictures!!! With summer vacation starting Friday for the girls I am not sure how much I am going to get posted on here, but I will try to do something when I can.


Have a great day!
