Quick Thank You Card

I needed to make a quick Thank You card and wanted to use the stamp set, Ewe Are The Best, from My Favorite Things. along with Lawn Fawn dies and paper.  I'm still learning how to use my Copic Markers and it's a lot of fun playing with them.

  The wonderful thing about clear stamp sets is not only do you get a lot of images and sayings for a great price but you can bend sentiments if needed.   Now, I need to make sure that I put the card in an envelope and pop it in the mail! 

Down By The Creek Bank Frog Card

Hi, all!  This week, I've got a post for you as part of Joy's Life's Design Team.

 Joy came up with the super cute theme this week....Down By The Creek Bank.  I remember as a kid catching night crawlers with my dad and finding salamanders in the window wells.  Yes, I was a tomboy.  

Growing up, I didn't see many frogs around but I wanted to use one for my project. This one is from Cricut's Create A Critter cartridge.

Lot's Of Pun was the first stamp set that I bought from Joy! You can get yours here.

For this weeks card, I used DoodleBug's Flower Box paper set.  The card is 4.25 x 5.5 in size.  I cut the frog at 3.5" and then played around with the paper strips to figure out what size I wanted.  I stamped the saying on a strip of white paper and then cut the tab by hand.  After adding stitching, ribbon, and a plastic flower, the card was done! 

Thanks for coming along with me on a trip down memory lane!  I hope you'll leave a comment and share one of your favorite memories with me.

Cupcake Cat Card

Hi, everyone!  Thanks for stopping by!  Today I have a Friend Shaped Card for you on behalf of JoysLife's Design Team.

You can tell by the name of my blog that I LOVE cats!  They've been cherished family members to my hubby and I over the years. 

When I saw this file, I thought this would be a sweet card to make for a friend.   

 

Slip off the cupcake liner to reveal

 this sweet saying from Joy's Yummy Puns stamp set.  

Here's a closeup of that great stamp!

Packed with fun sentiments, you can grab your own set of Yummy Puns here. 

To recreate this card using your cutting machine, resize the SVG file so it will fit in a 4.25x5.5 envelope. Add some dry embossing and crystals to make your project sparkle.  I cut the cat out of black paper since it reminds me of my cat, Moonlight.  

Maybe he approves.

Well, that's all I have for you today.  I hope you have a great one!  Thank you for taking the time to leave comments.  They mean a lot to me. :)
