Moose Card

Hello,

This is the card I made for my husband for Father's Day. 

I stamped the moose from the 
Nature's Wish Stamp Set.  I colored it in with my markers and cut it out.  

I then took the Fern Ink Pad and stamped the tree from the above set.  I sponged the "grass" under the trees with the fern ink as well.  I bordered it with Slate Cardstock and then attached the moose to the middle of the images. 

For the base of the card, I took out the Ink Blot Stamp Set and stamped a background on the left side with the fern ink.  I then took out a discontinued embossing folder and embossed the Fern Cardstock.  I took out some old ribbon from my stash and added that.  Attached the moose and stamped the sentiment.  Thanks for stopping by!  Hugs!

Fox Card

Where I live I have been having fun watching some young foxes grow up.  Normally the Momma Fox  raises her babies across the street from my house. But this year she had them someplace else and I was sad that I didn't get to see them when they were little babies. But she must have moved back to her favorite place across the street!  Now that her babies are "teenagers"  I have been enjoying watching them hunt and play in the early morning hours and in the evening. 

With that in mind, I decided to use this super cute Close To My  Heart June Stamp of the month called  Hello Foxy.  This set has 11 stamps that include 3 foxes and flowers and sayings.  Click on the highlighted link to see it!

I used the Prickly Pear Paper Packet for my patterned papers.   I colored the images in with my markers.  I also used Sea Glass Cardstock and Tangerine Cardstock for my base and behind my circle.  


I finished the card by using some Aqua Shimmer Trim and a few Bitty Sparkles.  Thanks for stopping by.  Have a wonderful day!  Hugs!

Birthday Twisted Pop-up Card

Hello!

This is the front of my first attempt at making a Twisted pop up card!  I got to make this card for my daughter-in-laws birthday!
It is always fun to learn new things. 

The patterned paper is some old Close To My Heart paper that I had in my stash called Blossom.   I used the balloons from the Happy For You Stamp Set.   

I used Lagoon Cardstock for the base of my card and which happens to be on sale for 25% off right now until the end of June!

I also used Lagoon Stamp pad, Smoothie Stamp Pad, Glacier Stamp Pad and the discontinued Pear and Sunset stamp pad colors for the balloons.

Look below for the inside of the card:

I used the Happy Birthday Thin Cuts with the Lagoon Cardstock.  I used a discontinued set of thin cuts to make the birthday present.   I also used the discontinued Sunset Cardstock as a base for the pop up!

Added a couple of enamel dots from my stash!  

Thanks for stopping by and checking it out!

Hugs!

Sympathy Card

I needed to once again make a couple of sympathy cards.  I really like making happy cards and these do not fall into that category! 

But, it something that has to be done from time to time. So for today's card I used the Shower Flower Stamp Set and the sentiment is from the Heartfelt Thoughts Stamp Set.

I used paper from the Whimsy Paper Fundamentals Paper  and also used some Champagne Cardstock.

For the flower/leaf/sentiment colors I used the Thistle Stamp Pad, Sweet Leaf Stamp Pad and the Champagne Stamp Pad.

The twine, the sparkly glitter and embossing folder I got out of my stash to use.  Thanks again for taking the time to check out my blog.  Have a wonderful day!  Hugs!

Thank you card

Good Morning!

Today's card I raided my stash again.  It is fun to be able to start to use up some of supplies..but of course, with all the "supplies" that I have I will be doing this a  long, long, long time!  Ha Ha

I wanted to make some Thank you cards and this is what I came up with. 

Almost all the products I used for this card are retired from Close To My Heart with a couple of exceptions:  The pixie cardstock and the pixie ink, also the black cardstock. I also used the current Ink Blot Stamp Set. These are still available to order. 

For those who also have a stash of stuff from Close To My Heart and want to know what papers I used:  Chantilly Paper and the 4 My Friend stamp set.  The embossing folder is NOT from Close To My Heart.   

Thanks all for stopping by.  I love sharing my creations with you!  Hugs!
