Northwood Stamp and Copic (Man Fishing in Canoe with Dock)

I've been creating cards, but none have been for my husband!  So this past weekend, I created this card for him. 

This card is 4.25 x 5.5.  The stamp is from Northwood Rubber Stamps - P9104 (Man Fishing in Canoe with Dock), stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black.  I used my Copic markers to color the stamped image.  To make the water shimmery, I added a bit of glitter to the water with a clear atyouSpica glitter pen. The image was then mounted on black card stock.  The background was done with brown card stock, stamped with a Black Penny wood grain stamp, stamped with Memento Rich Cocoa.

Christmas Card with WPlus9 and Cheery Lynn Dies

I recently ordered the WPlus9 Quilt dies and had to try them.  I used paper I had at hand (and it was from a recently made Christmas card).  The doily in the background is a Cherry Lynn die, and was
cut in half. 

Another Sympathy Card

Unfortunately, I recently needed another sympathy card.  This card was inspired by two different cards.  (See them here:

This card is 4 x 5.5.  The cat tail and sentiment are a Greenhouse Society stamp, embossed in black.  The words were stamped using a mask with a Recollections stamp using Memento London Fog. 

Lea France Templates

I love to scrapbook ALL of my pictures.  Many of my pages have more than 6 pictures on them.  Last month at CKC in Lancaster, I got some Lea France Templates.  These are wonderful for getting multiple pictures on one page, in an organized manner.   I will be using these a lot for my pages!


Here is a sample using the Honey Comb Template:

50th Birthday Card

Here is the card that I designed for my sisters 50th Birthday.

Front of the card:

Inside of the card:

The card is 5.5 x 4.25.  The card base is black.  I used a piece of 5.25 x 4 card stock, and embossed it with the Happy Birthday Cuttlebug embossing folder.  The 50's were cut from Lyrical Letters, cut at .75".  For the balloons, I used Sookwang double sided tape on white card stock.  I then cut the balloons from Stretch Your Imagination Cricut cartridge at 2.5".  Since the card base was black, for the inside I simply added a 5.25" x 4" piece of white card stock, a few more balloons, and another 50. 

50th Birthday Card

My sister is turning 50 this year.  I was designing a card for her, when my husband said to make it simple - here is his idea.

Front of the card:

Inside the card:

The card is 5.5 x 4.25,  The base was embossed with the Cuttlebug Happy Birthday embossing folder.  The numbers on the front are from Lyrical Letters Cricut cartridge, cut at 2.5".  The numbers on the inside of the card are also from Lyrical Letters cut at .75", and welded.  For the balloon, I used Sookwang double sided tape over white card stock, then cut using Stretch Your Imagination Cricut cartridge, 2.5".  Red glitter was then added.

Birthday Card

Here is a card that I made for my Dad.  He is an avid bicyclist, so the paper was a great find. 

For this card, I welded 4 circles together on my Gypsy, to create the small envelope.  The small card was embossed with the Happy Birthday Cuttlebug embossing folder.
