Easter & Others

I know it's been along time since I've posted (other than the one I just did).  I have too many things going on in my life and then was sick for three weeks.  I had to cancel my April stamp club, and I'm still trying to decide about May.  Anyway, here are the cards that I made for April. 

Here's the link for this one (click here)

Here's a link to the card that I used for this design (click here)

And this one (click here)

I'm going to try to get back here sooner the next time.

Thanks for looking!

March Stamp Club

These are 2 of the cards that we did for our March Stamp Club.  I'm pretty sure that they are cased from somewhere on Splitcoast, but it's been so long ago that I can't find my links.  I apologize to the original designer. 

Valentine's Card

This is the Valentine's card that I made for my hubby. Basic Black, Whisper White, Real Red CS. Real Red, Basic Black DSP.

February Stamp Club

This card was taken right out of the Stampin Up! catalog.  I changed it a tiny bit, but not much.  It uses the Vintage Wallpaper embossing folder, Big Shot Butterfly die and dotted ribbon border punch.  The cardstock is Basic Black, Riding Hood Red and cream.  I also used First Edition DSP and sponged all of the edges with Black or Red ink.

We had a surprise guest for our club this month.  Zeke decided that he wanted to make cards also.  :)

Rich Razzleberry, Regal Rose & Whisper White CS; Scallop border punch; dotted swiss embossing folder, circle scallop punch, decorative label punch, large oval punch, and Rich Razzleberry 5/8" grosgrain ribbon.

I found this card  here and changed it a bit.  The girls loved it.  This one was quite a bit of work, so I did lots of prep work to save time.  Here are pictures of the inside:

Another Bold Blossoms Card

Here's another card made with Bold Blossoms and the Framed Tulips Embossing Folder.  Quick and pretty! Melon Mambo & Whisper White CS; Melon Mambo, Certainly Celery, Tangerine Tango, Daffodil Delight inks; misc ribbon  & brads.

Bold Blossoms

I needed a quick card for a girls weekend next weekend.  I'm going to the coast with some friends.  This card uses the Bold Blossoms set from the Occasions Mini Catalog and the Framed Tulips Embossing Folder.  CS - Whisper White, Certainly Celery, Daffodil Delight (inside).  Ink - Black, Daffodil Delight, Certainly Celery, Melon Mambo & Tangerine Tango

January Stamp Club

I recently browsed on Splitcoaststampers, looking for a card to make with the Filled with Love Bundle.  I found this adorable card on this blog (click here).

After making the card, I was trying to figure out how to package it as it won't fit into an envelope with the Hershey's kiss on top, so I came up with this box:

I think that boxes are lots of fun to make, but are a little time consuming, and, if the project is bigger, you don't always have card stock large enough to make them with.  I'm very happy with this project.  Here's a picture of both together.

We will be making these in our January Stamp Club on January 14th.

Supplies:  Real Red, Whisper White, Early Espresso CS; Love Patterns (?) DSP; Real Red Ink; 1 inch circle punch; Eyelet Border Punch; Real Red 5/8" satin ribbon; acetate; Circles Nesties (for the hole in the box, as the punch couldn't reach that far in).  Very quick and easy to make. Don't forget the Hershey's kisses!  (They make a cherry version that has red/brown striped foil and would go great with this card)
