Shape Card

Here is a recent card I did for a JustCards swap. The theme of the swap was any card shape besides a rectangle.  My partner in the swap was my friend Elenor in Sweden.  The outside scalloped circle was done witht he Stampin Up die. The others were done with Nestibilities except the smallest one which was done with a Stampin Up punch. The word is from Stampin Up  as well as the punches used to cut out the parts. The hummingbird was an image gift from someone.  It was colored with Copics.

Have a happy day!

Sweet Birthday


I did this card quickly yesterday morning for a co-worker. I colored the ice cream with copic markers.  The image was a gift so I don't know who makes it.

Tent Card


I did a tent card for a swap with JustCards.  There butterflies are hanging within the card.

It was a fun technique and not near as hard as it looks.  I did the hole and scalloped circle with nestabilities. I did the butterflies with a Stampin Up die and the flowers with punches.  The background is a Cuttlebug folder.

Birthday Lighthouse


I needed a card for a make co-worker.  I wish I had something to do with biking for him but this is a nice card. The lighthouse is Little Point Sable in Michagan. It is south of our family place in Michigan.  I colored it with makers and watercolor pencils.  The background was embossed with a cuttlebug folder.

Recent card


Here is a card I did last night.  I put it together quickly. I was working on the computer for my son and had 30 minutes while a program loaded.  This is the card I made. As usual, I am not happy with what the colors look like. I may have to find a new way to take my pictures.  The image was from a swap. It has been colored with Copics. I used a white gel pen for the high lights. The words are a Stampin Up stamp. The shapes are cut with Nestabilities.  The embossed background is from Cuttlebug.

My grandson Daniel

My daughter did this digital scrapbook page of her second son, Daniel.  It was so cute, I had to share.

Elephant Card

Elephants may never forget but I think I did!  I forgot to post this cute card. The stamps are from High Hopes. I colored it with Copic markers. I believe I sent it to my grandson, Benjamin, for his birthday.
