Happy birthday chalkboard card

This idea was found on a favorite blog spot of mine Lisa Young ...she has some beautiful cards ! I thought I would try the chalkboard effect , when doing it I was a little skeptic on doing the craft white ink in case I got way too much on there .. I'll try it again and see if I can come up with something without being skittish on applying that "chalky" look ..
Thanks for stopping !

Birds and flowers

Early Monday morning - now that the week has started everything that goes with it starts to , being mom , taxi , getting ready for work and school .. But I had a few extra minutes this morning and did a quick card . This reminds me of my Aunt who loves planting flowers and always has a Smile ..

Music cards

This was a quick card , I came across this one in my folder I must have saved long ago , so I tried it .. It's missing something ... Not quite sure yet ... I would give this one to my husband , being the music man he is .. And who doesn't like receiving a "just because" card :-)

 

      Have a Great Sunday!



Baby bootie

This early sunday morning , now that i have the grad cards done i started to look around to see what i could do next, i love a good challenge . So I found many different pictures of a baby shoe and saw a cute one I liked and without a tutorial to follow ( or one you had to pay for ) , I improvised and made my own.. This turned out rather cute ..

I would love to share the "how did she do that" tutorial , As soon as I get some pieces together I'll get a video up on it.

Thanks for stopping by:

Quick Congratulations card

A very simple yet elegant Wedding card..

ASU Graduation card

Here's the final lay out for the ASU grad card I was asked to do .. I had it made with whisper white and I didn't like the look of it after staring at it for what seemed forever..so I ended up taking the whole thing apart and making it with very vanilla.

Newly Married Idea...

This was a great find on Pinterest..I wish I would have found it 17 years ago when I first got married to have done what they have done..

Each year on your anniversary you take a picture holding the picture from the previous year!.

What a great idea. You can watch how you and your significant other change over the years.



Finally Friday!

Another week has passed!..I'm looking forward to the end of the school year. Only 3 weeks 4 days left. Then Summer Vacation and LOTS more time to craft.
There are so Many projects I want to do and maybe i'll finish those that I've started months ago that seem to pile up in the corner of my craft room!...
I've been busy this morning looking through a lot of new blogs, doing the head "shake", you know that head shake, when you see something you like or think "oh ya thats a great idea" and you start shaking your head up and down...So I've joing a few and have really enjoyed seeing other ideas..

 

I look forward to adding more stuff to the blog as time goes on, for now I have just a few really cute cards to show off...Here they are : ) Thanks for visiting , please leave a comment so I know that I'm not talking to myself..(lol thanks!)

My Update

Things are getting busy as the end of the school year is quickly approaching. My son will be a junior next year in High School and we will have just a little bit of time this summer to hang out since he is on a quest to get a job. I'm very excited as things are starting to pick up. I just finished the invitations for my mother in laws Birthday Party next month and was just asked to make graduation cards from two people. I love to make cards for others so this made my day.

 

Here is the invitation that my wonderful sister in law went with



On a Hiatus and a New Design!

Hiatus-

I have been gone for a bit and havent had a chance to get here and post all the wonderful cards I've come across or made. I got a cold that knocked me out and this one really lasted a long time. I became so busy once i recovered I neglected to get on here and keep up to date. So today this quiet Sunday morning I had a chance to get a new design for the title blog and get a few cards done!. I'll get the pictures up so everyone can see.
