Capture Joy

 

My friend Diane at stampinggrandma4 gave me this  hummingbird set from Hot Off the Press and the pattern for this card. I had this card put together for awhile but not embellished.  I had the white embossed flowers sitting on my table from another project and added those and stamped the saying from the set and now just need to add an inside saying when I have an occasion for it. Below is a few open views in case you want to give it a try!   Have a great w/e and week!

Sail Away

This is one of my cards for a June birthday at work. The co-worker

it is for likes sailboats so I used this scene from Stampa Rosa,

I used VersaMark on a Great Impressions willow on the navy

background and I think you can just barely make it out in the

picture. Sea shell brad is from Recollections, Die Cuts ovals. 
I thought this was fitting for the following challenges:

Thinking About You

 I am a card angel through Chemo Angels and send a card and

occasional little gift to someone going through chemotherapy and

my current "chemo buddy" has graduated.  I made this card for her

and send an little graduation gift to her this past w/e.  .  I'm looking

forward to my next "chemo buddy". I really like the sayings with this stamp set

Just because from Amuse, papers are from Ki. The sparkle on the

flowers is from my new Wink of Stella brush -thanks Shirley!

Just a little note

I had fun making this card using my Sizzix/Hero Arts

stamp&die cut, this is the first time I embossed it

on vellum, what do you think?  Sentiment is Stampendous.

The basket I freehanded and used a Paper Studio embossing

folder for the design and Tim Holtz inks to give it some color.

The lady bug was from my stash. One of the girls at work finished

her chemo and radiation and has surgery Monday so this card

will go to her.

Happy Mothers Day!

Happy Mothers Day everyone! 

 This is my daughter-in- laws mothers  day card.  I used a stamp by

 Stampendous-Narcissus that sees a lot  of ink in my craft  room. I

fussy cut the flowers, used a butterfly punch and the rest or the cutouts

 are from my Sizziz Word Labels die set. It only need a little color

from my  Copics and some Amuse papers.

Thinking of You

I've had a bit more time in my craft room lately!  I've been

I hope you all have some time to create this weekend!
