Just Because card

This card was done in a class...very simple and elegant and can be reproduced very quickly...use the blender pen to highlight the red color in the petals and a permanent red marker for the rhinestones.....

Watercolor product based card class...

Doing ten of the 20 watercolor cards for a class that is product based...these are two of the cards...just added the watercolor paper and a few pearls to this one...

 these cards are lovely on their own...watercolored with blender pen or aqua painter...

My First box card (birthday theme)

I did this for a friends birthday....well, actually, two friends birthdays...they both llllloooovvvveee animal prints...used the backyard basics and the framelits that go with the set....I did a second card

with the same format but the animal prints were reversed...loved it more but sent it without taking a picture first....sorry about that...lolo

 opposite animal print on bottom...

 and  more closeups....

 folded flat to send in envelope...

Valentine treat holder

I did this at Monika's for the  make n take...would be great for a nursing home treat or Easter/whatever

 I used a toilet paper roll and measured off 1.25 inches   and the strip of paper is the same but 6 inches long and glued it on with sticky strip.....

 ribbon scallop punch is used for the handle....and the heart embosslit is used for the front

Valentine box card and a peek a boo card

Thought I would try the peek a boo card and love the way it turned out...using the prints pack from the new mini

 Shows how hearts are attached with dimensionals

 slowly go to open it.......

and viola.....so cool...had too many layers on the inside so toned it down when the class did it....

 Doing some projects at Monika's in Woodstock, Ga....Sue and Jan...wonderful and talented ladies...

 Rebecca came up with this bookmark using our new die and punch and ribbon....

 Gee....I wonder why Diane doesn't get everything done on time...such a funny and good friend....."What do we do now?"   lol

 This is the box card that I came up with for my sweetie, Papi...

 This is another of the same but different attachments on a one on one swap....

 This was my swap at Diane's......used the gold encore ink with a used/old blender pen to color the flowers...

 This is Papi's book for Valentine's ....need to learn more MDS...lol

Folder card....winter theme..one on one swap

Had a hard time envisioning this card....wanted it a folder card but took me awhile....sort of satisfied with this one...used the festive flurry with versamark on the front...this card is prettier in person...hope the person loved it...lol...

 used the saying from the boot set...used a versamark pen and embossed in silver....

 just an informal saying...

Donut card...case from Mercedes

This card was on the Leadership board...one of the many swaps.....I changed it up a little but the design is definitely Mercedes....she said she asked her husband what the embossing folder reminded her of...and he said a donut...and it really does...see what a  helped your significant other/husband can be...great idea...used the crumb cake seam binding...instead of the twine....and made the donut shape from the 2.5 inch circle, not sure how Mercedes did it....sponged with choc chip and espresso...donut is popped...

 good enough to eat.....1 7/8 scallop for bite part...lol

 saying popped...
