Square Thank You

Hello my crafty friends, 

I had 2 base cards left over from a previous card-making session and decided to use them. Remember the 2 recent birthday cards? This time I decided to make them into Thank You cards. 

This technique is so versatile - the card and sentiment can go in any direction; change the color scheme and sentiment and poof...you can have a card for any occasion and for a man or woman. These just happens to be for a man and a woman! LOL 

The "Thank You" is raised for dimension. On the woman's, I added 2 gem stones and on the man's, I added 2 buttons. The insides were left blank as I will just write my personal note to them. 

Check back real soon - still more to come. 

Hope you like and thanks for looking! 









Unusual Sunflowers

Hello my crafty friends, 

This was a crafty weekend for me. Of course there's still more on my to-do craft list. There's always tomorrow... LOL 

One of the first things I did was complete my April ATC. April theme was: RECYCLE. Well I decided to do  the only thing that kept sticking in my mind to do: I recycled the lint from my dryer after doing laundry! I won't even tell you what all that lint looked like in a ziplock bag (before I got to the point of using the lint)! OMGosh! LOL 

Anyway as you can see, not much was really used but I covered the brown spots in the sunflowers with the lint. With all consideration, I think they turned out ok. What do you think? 

Check back real soon - much more to come. 

Hope you like and thanks for looking!

Thank You Owl

Hello my crafty friends, 

Here is the thank you card I needed to make. It just wasn't coming together till I added the fence, tulips and grass. I knew what I wanted to do but didn't. Does that make sense? LOL Once it was completed, I have to admit, I think it turned out pretty good! 

The fence (along with the tulips and grass) is raised for dimension. 

Hope you like and thanks for looking!

Wish Big birthday cards

Hello my crafty friends, 

I wanted to make a couple of cards as a token of my appreciation. I decided to make them birthday cards. Everyone can always use birthday cards right?? 

The balloons - outside and inside - and the outside sentiment (wish big) are raised for dimension. 

The inside of the blue card says: Happy Birthday (and underneath) Wishing you the best today and always!"

The inside of the green card says: May this birthday bring life's true gifts - good health, friendship, and love."

Stay tune...for the "thank you for your time" card is coming up shortly! 

Hope you like and thanks for looking!

Helloooo

Hello my crafty friends, 

I need to send someone something in the mail and want to send a card along with it. This is what I came up with. It didn't look complete till I added the "stitching". 

Hope you like and thanks for looking! 






A big wish

Hello my crafty friends, 

I bought this sunflower image at a flea market about a month ago and wanted to do something with it.  This is what I came up with. I think it turned our pretty good. What do you think? 

The sunflower image and the sentiment are raised for dimension. 

I have a friend who likes sunflowers and lime green. With the touch of lime green, I think it'll be the perfect birthday card for her next month. YAY! 

Hope you like and thanks for looking! 






Thank U

Hello my crafty friends, 

I needed to make a thank you card. I came up with this and it came together in a SNAP! I love when that happens. 

The "thank u" is raised for dimension. I left the inside blank so I can write my message. 

Hope you like and thanks for looking!
