Be Still

Hello and happy Wednesday! I made this card for a friend from church who's going through a lot right now. Patrick made them a lasagna and I made the card to go with (trust me, it's better that way!) I used Taylored Expressions sketch 129 and the card came together quickly. I hope our little care package brings her some comfort. Thanks for taking a look.

Mojo Butterfly

Hello! I hope everyone reading had a great weekend. I worked last night so mine was short, but good. Last night a woman I work with gave me a cute little hat she made for Bailey. She had made one when Bailey was first born, but it was too small for her head. This one fits though, and is SO CUTE! I had some momma time tonight and used Mojo Monday Sketch 158 to make her a thank you card. I am really loving making round cards with their sketches. This is also my submission for Our Daily Bread Designs Challenge 31 "Wing It." I used VersaMark Dazzle to emboss the butterfly and then inked over it to create a denim look on the textured cardstock. Thank you for looking!

Autumn House

Hello! The weather has been so beautiful here lately, I haven't had the air on for a week. I love the breeze blowing through the house and the sound of the birds, it makes me happy : ) It's really put me in the mood to make my cards for Thanksgiving. It is my absolute favorite time of year as well as one of my fav holidays, my birthday is Nov 27th so it's fallen on Thanksgiving many times to add to the festivities : ) I've done a Christmas card workshop in the past where I provide all the supplies to make 10 Christmas cards. This year a few people have asked me to make sets of cards to sell, and I've decided to take the challenge a little further and make a couple Thanksgiving sets as well. This is the first card I've made for the set. I used Card Patterns Sketch # 81 as my starting point. The "brads" in the corners are actually "bullets" from a T-shirt my brother bought at a Brooks & Dunn concert. He was over for supper one night and was picking them off his shirt, he said they looked girly. After teasing him about buying a girly shirt (he is my little brother after all) I made him put them all in a baggy for me to use someday! Thanks for looking!

This is also the first card I've made using my new Gina K Designs cardstock as a base... I LUV IT! It holds up so well!

Halloween Cow

Hello! I have a Halloween card to show today. It's hard to believe that it will be October before we know it! I am so happy with how my card turned out : ) I used Taylored Expressions Sketch #127. There were so many pretty samples from the Design Team, I loved playing along! Thanks for looking!

Live, Laugh, Love

Hello! I hope everyone had a safe Labor Day weekend! I had to work Monday (yay for time and a half!) so I had yesterday off and was able to make a card. It seems to take me forever to make a card anymore! I had these grand plans to make a bunch of cards and I got *one* done : ) One's better than none, and I do like it. I used The Sweet Stop Sketch #72 for my card, except I added the photo corner to cover up a mess up in my sewing. I was at war with my sewing machine yesterday, and of course, since I know NOTHING about sewing the machine won! Oh well, I have at least figured out how to thread the thing so dear husband doesn't have to do it for me anymore, lol! Thanks for looking!

Rejoice and Be Glad

Happy Hump Day! For my Grandma's birthday last Sunday I gave her a set of 3 cards I had made. This is my absolute favorite of the 3, its simple but I LOVE it : ) I used Card Patterns Sketch #79 again. I also used Stampin' Sisters in Christ Challenge #54 to use metal embellies on your card. Thanks for taking a look!
