Ribbon Kitten Cards







What an adorable stamp image a friend gave me ! 
It was perfect to make cards with for two cat mom friends
as well as a card for each of my kids who adopted a cat
themselves the past year.
I'm a fur baby grandma now, ha ha !

The polka dot paper is from an old Die Cuts With A View stack.

The green cards with stitching were a set of
hand made, recycled paper cards I bought
on clearance at Target a few years ago.

The images were stamped on water color paper
then "painted" using inks from dye ink pads
and a water brush. 







Thanks for looking =)

Ho Ho Ho Santa Cards




Using up some scraps, I created these simple, cute, mail friendly cards. 

Papers were from an old Die Cuts With A View stack.

Stamp image is an oldie from Stampin' Up!
I normally use a dimensional paint on this stamp image,
giving texture to Santa's beard. 

Thanks for looking =)

Felt Ornament Card


This card was made from such an old craft kit I've had for far too long !!!!
I made it for a recently married cousin. The tree is a removable ornament.
I added a tag to the back "Merry First Christmas as Mr and Mrs !"

DVD Folder





A quickie DVD folder  I made to send to a cousin
that was recently married. It holds all of the video footage,
photographs and digital scrapbook album we made for them.








The folder is made from an 11" wide
by 7 3/4" tall piece of card stock. 

Score and fold in half along the 11"side.

Score in at 2 2/4", fold, trim and glue just the outer edges 
along the 11" side to create two pockets. 

Use ribbon to keep closed if you'd like. 
You can punch holes at each opening to run the ribbon through
or attach with heavy duty double stick tape. 

Decorate the cover (and inside) as you wish .

I used paper from a Die Cuts With A View stack,
die cuts I made.  A little embossing and sponging 
of ink on the heart die cut for more detail. 


Thanks for looking =)
