Thank you cards



Here are some thank you cards I made. I actually made a whole bunch of these little cute ladybugs first(aren't they the cutest! CTMH stamp, love it). Then, I decided to make thank you cards with my HA stamp that I hadn't used yet.


Here is a close up of the cute ladybug. I love the glitter body and I made the antennas out of CTMH waxy flax (PP and ricrac is also CTMH).

Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Mother's Day!

Here is the card I made for my mom. I LOVE this card! I love the glittered hearts and the acetate that makes the jar look shiny. I had made it for a submission call but it didn't get chosen (looking at the awful picture, I can see why). I was going to try to submit it again but decided not to. Decided to share it with you guys instead ;)

Hope you are all having a great day!

Mom's Bday card!


This is the card I made for my mom for her birthday. I used the PTI jar stamps again (I just can't seem to get enough of that set). I coloured the image with my copics and really like the muted look on kraft paper. I used vintage photo distress ink on the edges to age it a bit.

I took this picture with my iphone and I'm quite happy with how it turned out.

Well, that's all for today. I'm going to try and make some Christmas cards for the Paper Crafts submission call, the deadline is Monday. I'm having a hard time getting into the Christmas spirit now that spring is finally here, ha.

Have a good one!

Birthday Chrysanthemum




I saw Mary Dawn's (My Pink Mexico) video on how to make beautiful chrysanthemums and just had to try it out. I love how it turned out and it was so easy to make.

I used PTI stamps and felt. (Their felt really is amazing btw, you can't go back to buying Michael's felt after having the PTI felt). I made this card for my good friend Anne who's birthday is tomorrow. The pink and blue are so her. Happy Birthday Anne!

I'll be back tomorrow to share another birthday card, this time my mother's, who's birthday is also tomorrow.

Thanks for stopping by,
Maryse
