Birthday card and Christmas card

I made this card for my niece Ava who's turning 4.  I love these stamps from PTI, soooo CUTE!  I don't love the way it turned out (I ran out of time) but I think my niece will like it anyway.

This next card is one of many Christmas cards to come.  I love making holiday cards, I could make them all year :)  For this one, I used Spellbinders Nestabilities ornament dies with some Close To My Heart paper.  The Noel stamp is from Michael's and the background stamp is HA.  This usually isn't my style of card to make but I like how it turned out.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone in Canada!  Bring on the turkey!

Have a great weekend!

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,

Birthday cards

Hello!

I made 2 almost identical birthday cards the other day. I just couldn't decide what I liked best, the ribbon or the twine. What do you think?

The stamp is CTMH and the cute cupcake punch is EK success. My friend Anne bought that punch for me and I love it! (Thanks Anne!) It's so cute and even more cute when used with glittered paper. I don't think you can tell in the picture, but the pink embossed paper has pop-dots under it as does the cupcake. Cute and simple!

Have a great weekend everyone! I'm taking my 2nd copics class and looking forward to it.
