My Largest Card & Other Card Creations

Happy Sunday! Hope your July has been a good one so far. I have made several cards and wanted to share a few with you. First, one of our customers wanted us to make a card for her pastor's wife. The pastor's wife happens to be my mother-in-law and of course I was so honored to make something to celebrate her birthday.

This card was the largest card I've made so far. (The size is 6x10 inches) It was a fun challenge and love how it turned out. Plus Ron did a great job writing something special for the inside. I know this going to bring great joy to a woman that deserves this honor! Take a look.
I used Prima pp on this white cardstock, Jolee's white fabric flower with jewels, bling swirls from Zva, rhinestone strip from David Tutera Collection and green leaves from Recollections.


This lavendar lace paper in so pretty with the silver and white flower.


I added the lace paper from the front to the inside right. Then on the left I added her picture as a backgound to Ron's writings. Looked amazing in person. WOW!


I had another card order for some female and male birthday cards. Here is a quick look at how they turned out. 

I used My Mind's Eye patterned paper. Love how it looks like a wooden fence. Looks so masculine.


I know our customer will love using these cards to celebrate her special loved ones.


Finally, here is a special congratulations card I made for a sweet cousin's engagement. I hope this card bring them more excitment and joy as they prepare for their wedding.

Used purple cardstock, Prima floral pp on the inside, Zva purple bling, Recollections flowers and leaves and this cute flag sentiment.



Hope you enjoyed looking at all these creations. Take care and have a lovely day!

    Kelly, your mother-in-law's card is simply beautiful. Purple is definitely a favorite of mind--being lace paper puts it over the top. I love how you used her image as a watermark/background. The other cards were wonderful as well.

Relaunch of Our Business

Emmy's 2010

Did you watch the red carpet last night for the Emmy's? I love watching these award show red carpets more than the show itself.  I just saw the pictures online. One the sites I looked at was radaronline.com. These pictures are from there. First, I liked the navy blue one.  The dress had lots of drama and she wore it well. The purple one was interesting.  Still trying to decide if I like it. Maybe it would have been better with the layers on the bottom but not both.  I really love the color and the idea. Maybe a little too much going on. radaronline.com This next dress worn by Eva Longoria was so pretty. The black flowers on the bottom of the dress was so stunning! She looked  great, too. I wonder how the dress would look in a lighter color? Maybe the floral details would show up better. radaronline.com Out of  all the dresses I saw these were the most interesting ones. I was a little disappointed there weren't more WOW dresses. Also, there were s...

Valentine's Cards

Happy belated Valentine's Day. I hope it was a sweet one for you all. I just love making greeting cards for this holiday.  Nornally for Valentine's I make red and black cards which I love but this year I decided to add some pastel colored cards to my collection. Earlier this year, I made some cards with this beautiful paper pad from Michael's. I loved it so much, I just had to see if I could use it for Valentine's and they look great to me. Details:  Recollections Paper is from Michael's 6x6 paper pad called "Blush and Mint."  Flowers made with my Spellbinders scalloped circles.  Take a look! Do you feel the love? LOL! Cards are 5x7 in size. See the heart in the center? Love that idea!     Thanks for stopping by and have a nice day!
