Snowflake Christmas cards

I had to just post 2 more Christmas cards. My friend, Marthanda, brought me some of her new dies  to play with and this snow flake frame was one of them. I think this card really turned out pretty.

Christmas card fronts for Nursing home

I made 87 card fronts in approximately 1 month. Now I have to go back and stamp the inside of each and sign my name.  I will stamp my logo on the back of each card. Then around the 1st of December I will deliver them to Leisure Village Nursing Home where my mom is living. I have had so much fun designing each card just a little different. I am so thankful for the friends that gave me Christmas papers and embellishments.  One of the friends, Marthanda has so thoughtfully let me borrow and give me dies to help me.   I pray that each person that receives a card will smile and have a Blessed Christmas.

I have made more Christmas cards for the NH

 I have made these different from the first reindeer cards. I am having so much fun with the different colors and designs.  I'm getting real close to 86, but I need to do the insides next before I start on more for the other nursing home in Glenpool.

4th design for nursing home

 This is the 4th and last design, I think, but not the last card, I have about 60 to go.

Close up of that cute snowman, he has 3 layers and lots of sparkle.

 Close up of the snow lady card

 Craft foam behind the letters and ornament.

 These are my pick out of the first ones I made. The reindeer was mistakenly made backwards  by a friend helping me. It really turned out cute.

Now I have started on ornaments and will do more of the others, or find something else to cut out to make 86 and if I get this done in time I will make more for Glenpool Nursing Home. (I know I can cut out the snowman).

Christmas card for mom's nursing home

This is my card, the others will be a mixture of white, blue, green, red, silver and gold. (Pictures later).  I stamped the border, cut the scolloped edge, then embossed the white part of the card with a snowflake embossing folder. The reindeer is doubled with a gold one behind the white. The Merry Christmas is a die cut borrowed from my friend, Marthanda.

 Sorry, it's a little crooked.

A close up of the reindeer. This one has glitter on the front one.

4th of July layout for Mom's door

 I can hardly wait until I get to put it on her door. The Christmas layout and the flower pot with her name on it are still hanging on her door. I am taking down the Christmas layout.

I will leave the flower pot, because it does have her name on it.

The first picture is the entire hanging with ribbon, it is 8x8 and multi-layered. The fireworks were embossed with red, white and blue embossing powder. The blue is really hard to see, but it's there.

The next picture is a close up of the flag and stars  I used Glossy Accents on the flag and I embossed the red and blue hearts, the white heart I stamped Happy 4th of July with a CTMH mini stamp.

 

 

 I took a close up of the stick pins that were given to me by my friend, Marthanda.

 I am pleased how good they look.

Happy Mother's Day/Etsy Shop

 Filigree edged Mother's Day card with box. The dark color is green and is paper was bought for me in India. The Ivory cardstock is from Close to My Heart.  I layered the bow with a flower, added bling and a stick pin.

Inside of card

For the front of the card I used Spellbinders Radiant Rectangles No's 2,3,4, 5, Carnation Creation  flower set on Spellbinders Foliage Flourishes and Happy Birthday is Spellbinders Die-d-lites Sentiments One 

For the inside, I used the border die of the Spellbinders Vintage Lace Motifs and the third die of Spellbinders Radiant Rectangles for Just Rite Birthday Vintage Labels Four stamp.

The corners were cut with the Deco edge of a Crop A Dial Corner Chomper.

On both the front and inside I used pearl bling.

My Aunt Joann's Get Well Card

I used the Grand Labels Twenty Three for the shape of the card and the background on the front. For the sentiment and lady on the front I embossed with gold powder and used Spellbinder's Opulent Ovals die.  Flowers, pearls & stick pins for embellishments.

For the center of the card I again embossed the sentiment with gold embossing powder and used Opulent Ovals dies.

Get well for Dr. B. 3/20/15

Oops, I forgot to take the picture of the inside of the card before I wrote on it. 

That is why the bottom part is cut off. 

Mom's Birthday Card

My mom, who will be 86 tomorrow loves red roses. I made the rose for her and used greenery and smaller flowers for the front. I used my new Spellbinders embossing folder Lovely Lattice. The Happy Birthday is a Close To My Heart stamp and the inside stamp is from JustRite.

Easter cards & box for the cards, for the nursing home

Eighty-six 3x3 cards and envelopes.

2015 - Mother's Day card

Supplies used:
Spellbinders Grand Labels One
Spellbinders Decorative Labels One
I used the computer for the Happy Mother's Day
I punched the rose with a My Paper Studio punch
The ribbon as well as the gold rhinestones are from Michael's
I made the stick pin
The inside sentiment is a JustRite stamp

Envelope box for the card in the next post

I used the envelope punch board to make this envelope box. Although it is not sturdy enough to go through the mail, it serves it's purpose to hand deliver, or put in a sturdier box to mail.

Thank you card for my friend

Her and I both like fleur de lis, so I added a border and stamped one on the front and one in the middle of the card. It doesn't show up very good in the picture, but there is a leaves and flourish die cut on the front of the card with purple blending around it.

We also like purple, voila! I think her taste is white and mine is cream cards.

Envelope Box comes later.

Sympathy card for a neighbor

Valentine's Cards for Nursing Homes

These are a few of the cards I'm making for the Nursing Homes (2). 

I have had help with white paper, flowers & punched hearts.  I truly thank those people.

 These I made from the hearts that were punched out for me.

These are the hearts I die cut and water colored.

Mark's 47th Birthday card

 While my living room carpet and ceiling dried, this weekend, I zentangled and made Mark this card. Then I wrote the date and "Happy Birthday Mark" in calligraphy.

 To the middle of the card I did some zentangle to the side and wrote the message.

I personalized the back with a tag and my logo.
