One of the From Our Hearts cards

This is a simple white card for Valentine Day....they are collecting them through the end of December and then they will send to Iraq and Afghanistan

Used the heart embossing folder twice...and space the chalk talk piece between them....

Both of the pieces are popped up....

Evergreen....2nd card in my Third Christmas series

Close up of the writing area
You can see some sparkle in this picture below
Love this Evergreen set so versatile...it is a carryover set ...this card is prettier in person..it has dazzling details on the edges of the tree...sorry...hard to see...the framed area is popped ....

Don't you just love that new embossing folder...I really do...

a little closer...

the gray piece was attached and then part of the card run through the Big Shot

Gorgeous Grunge case

Mary Brown had a wonderful card and I cased most of the design on this card....difference in color and placement ...love the black embossed....

Melon and Pacific Point work soooo well together...popped the for you up

Third Christmas Series

Love the way this turned out....really striking in person....my photo skills have a lot to be desired...lol...the vellum was used for the flower image...made two flowers and fussy cut...they were embossed in versamark with white embossing powder....colored on the reverse side and heated on the low setting (vellum and marker take awhile to dry and this speeded up the process)

Wait until you try this embossing folder...is it the best or what? lol....and the foil paper to die for....just enough thickness that it doesn't add weight to the card itself...the top smaller flower has dimensionals under it...

a little better close up

the foil was glued to the white cardstock and then put through the Big Shot and embossed...

Silver dots were added to the inside of the top layer...hard to see ( and I took 5 pictures and this is the best...sorry about that)....
