Vellum

I have been playing with vellum and I like how this card turned out.

I ran the vellum through my cuttlebug and then glued it over yellow paper.

I added a flower embellishment from Martha Stewart and a birthday sentiment to complete it.

Much prettier in person!!

Shaving cream cards

I have been playing around with shaving cream cards this morning.

I think they came out pretty and they sure smell good too.

I didn't add too many embellishments as I thought the background was busy enough.

The shaving cream technique is fun but it sure is messy!

Enjoy!

Thank You cards

I finally finished up all those card kits from Cozy Crop last night.

I vowed to use only scraps for the month of June.

I made a bunch of scrappy backgrounds in blacks and gray tones.

I ordered some stamps from Pam T. and I was itching to "play" with them.

This is one of the stamps I got from her.  The red shiny paper was also

a bonus in the box from her.  It went great with the scrappy backgrounds.

I did not embellish the cards as I thought they were busy enough with that

background and shiny paper.

Birthday Card

A Happy Little Birthday Card that I made today!

Using Scraps

I made a goal for myself to use nothing but scraps for the month of May.

Well I brought a bunch of card kits home from my Cozy Crop Weekend so I 

have been finishing them up as they were bugging me!!!!  This is one of the card

kits I finished up and it goes right along with me using nothing but scraps.

Since I was busy all month with card kits, I have extended my goal for the month of June.
On this card, I used masculine colors as it seems I am always making flowery cards!!!

Birthday Cards

I made a bunch of these birthday cards and it is a great way

to use up scraps.  They will go in my next box to Operation Write Home.
