Hello all, my lastest card is here is made with HOTP 12 x 12 Template Giant Flower card. I got a good deal on HSN-4 Giant Card Templates 24 Sheets of Pretty Papers and Pretty Creations Brads and flowers all for $19.95 and free shipping. I used a leafy piece of heavy paper from an old scrapbook kit and stippled jungle green Marvy ink and stamped the leaf image from T-675 Nothing Better (retired). I love these templates, Star Card, Fold-it-Flower and Spiral Card. I will show more cards next week. Hope all have a glorious weekend!

Here is my Build-a-card entry titled We Are Friends. I used The Angel Co. stamp set T-2956 Linear Sentiments for a background & the main image We are friends that I framed with a matted oval to draw attention to it. I also put Burnt Umber Palette ink on the distressed edges of the green strip and inside of oval. Layered green strip on MS Doiley Punched white strip. Used a pretty piece of green & white ribbon from $1.00 ribbon Bin at Michael's.

Flowers are 3 layers green base flower, stamped caribbean blue Marvy Ink flower with stamp from Linear Sentiments and added glitter to it too. The silver flower charm is in the center and the Friendship Theme is covered by the background and the focal image. Got get closer to see glitter cause it does not scan well.

I added the photo hinge to keep card closed and draw eye to oval.

How did I do?

Happy Birthday to all my friends and family who have a birthday in July. I was cutting my new stamps out andputting sets in the isis cart when this set jumped out and said make this card!

Colored w/ Bic pens. Used several sets for this card; T2382 girlz & boyz, T3143 Spunky Sprite Girls, T2842 Playful Bet, eclectic Happy Birthday (retired GWP), TA2985 Feel Better (retired Hostess),T2956 Linear Sentiments. Have to show inside of this card as it finishes the card. I know the card seems busy but it was in my head and now it done. Hope you have a great weekend!!

Christmas Wishes is finished for my challenge entry at SCS. The idea was in my head since Sunday and was put on paper completed this morning. The Jumbo Penguin is a Clear stamp from Stampendous and everything was paper pieced but the eyes. I stamped eyes and beak but added orange cardstock for beak. The scarf is popped up for more dimension. I am loving my background too as I brayered it with Memento dew drops in Summer sky, Lulu Lavender and Angel Pink. Stamped snowflakes with summer sky. The Christmas wishes stamps are from 2 TAC GWP's. I added glitter to snow drifts which is torn paper. I Love the way it finally looked, what do you think? I am reposting this as I did not have a Direct Link to SCS and posted another challenge after. I hope ya'll like this card!

Here is my challenge with pleats for Paperlicious Designs. My first time doing a challenge for Melisa and I wanted something that was more decor:

not really a card in mind so I did this door hanger with a simple welcome.

Stamps are TAC cute curliques T-2878 and the welcome is from retired set but can't remember name. The colors are better in person. I inked Toile Pink Palette on Bristol board and stamped curliques with Belle Rose. The card stock in pink and lime is DCWV and is the plaid paper. The bow was made using Bow Template from Hot off the Press. I distressed the edges lightly and used Burnt Umber Palette for welcome and edges. I got this hanging on my craft room door. Hope everyone likes it!

hey there kitty! My newsest card was done this morning. Paper is TAC-V900 Gentle Beginnings Stamp set is T2805 (retired) Adorable Animals. I used small flower stamp from T2638 Petal Pack and French Lilac Palette Ink, also New Canvas on edges of circle. You can not see it well, but I used a square nestie to emboss on card, hand cut square and glued paper to back. Added kitty which I stamped with TAC India Ink on watercolor paper and colored with Bic pens(cheaper than copic $10 for 24 pens at Walmart). I like the way I balanced it with the flowers. Circle and flowers are popped up using Double-sided mounting tape cut into small pieces. Another bargain; cheaper than pop-dots and lasts longer. 3/4 inches x 57 foot roll for I think $2. I've had it so long I really don't remember. Dollor store or Walmart?? Well here it is DONE!!
