new cards... hiatus...

it will be a while before I will be posting again (moving to a new house in a couple months!) but I wanted to post these simple new cards I did recently...

Baby announcements!

Here is our little miracle, Isabella!! She arrived May 7 at 7:39pm. She weighed 7 lb 6 oz and was 19 3/4 nches long. She has been such a good baby from the start!

crib bedding...

Here is the crib bedding I have been working on for Isabella! I just love the little bug mobile, it plays "Feelin' Groovy" :)

new card!

Cuttlebugged the white and layered the torn pieces on top after matching up the embossing... Used Stickles on the words and added rhinestones.

Revised card...

okay, so I couldn't let that boring card go out like it was so I added a little something...Hope it helped improve it!

I used the cowboy hat from the Pooh and Friends cartridge, shaded it with distress ink and used the Distress Stickles on the hat band.

Two cards... anybody care to comment?

I'll take any comments, good or bad, at this point! I see that people visit but no one comments on my cards... can you please comment if you like them or even if you have any suggestions for improvements? I'm always open to constructive criticism!

used the Fiskars rope border punch, Cosmic Copper Brilliance ink on dark green paper, Wild Card Cricut cartridge for sentiment... (still not sure if I like this card... the person likes 'western' things so I tried to go with more muted colors...)

 

used paint samples for the blue and green 'paper', stamped image with Timber Brown Staz-on ink and colored in with Prismacolor pencils, used new EK Success scalloped scallop border punch on blue Inkadinkado sentiment stamp

Anniversary card

used the DCWV Luxury stack for background paper, one of the new EK success border punches on the vertical piece, Prima flowers with clear skittles on the centers, Fiskars corner rounder on card and background corners

lots of cat drama... a few cards...

** warning to cat owners: sewing thread can be hazardous to kitty digestive systems and your wallet!!**
Jett 3 days after surgery...

long story short- my cat, Jett, ate some sewing thread and ended up having to have 18 inches of intestines removed on Feb 13th. So now his belly (and neck and arm for bloodwork/IV) is all shaved and he has a good 3-4 inch scar on it... He is still having trouble recovering so all prayers are appreciated! He has lost at least 3 pounds in the past month!



Here are some cards for your patience!

St. Patty's day Birthday card- used Paper Doll Dress Up cart for Shamrock, Doodletype for Happy Birthday, argyle cuttlebug and sanding on green paper, new EK success edge punch on blue paper

Masculine birthday card- used Beyond Birthdays for sentiment, George for ovals, mesh cuttlebug folder with black magic paper sanded/torn edge for background, hand cut envelope

Pansy birthday card: used Storybook for scalloped ovals, swiss dots cuttlebug folder for purple oval, real dried pansies beneath vellum oval.

Flower birthday card

I used the Tinkerbell Cricut cart for this one! This is cut at 4 inches. I stickled the flowers with Fruit Punch, Cotton Candy and Ruby Slippers. I also used the Basic Grey 'Eva' paper pack and an Inkadinkado stamp.

yeesh... over a month of no posting!! New card!

sorry internet friends for the long absence while I've been moving! I am finally getting settled into my new room in Texas and am just now getting to create again!

Here is a new card for your patience...

The little birdie and the branch are from Home Decor cartridge...
also used lavender stickles and Basic Grey "Eva" paper pack.
