And still more Cards I have been playing around with.

This card the flowers were cut with the big shot and a Stampin up die, inked the edges and crumpled the petals, scalloped edge and sentiment from Stampin Up


This easel card was made using a digital image from Instant Printable Images, I cut it out and then did some tile printing on it , with versamark ink and clear embossing powder and then distressed it with Tim Holtz distress ink so the spaces would show up.


This is also a digital inage from the same sheet called Mothers Day. The background was embossed with The Cuttlebug using the Folder called Allegro


This next card was easy, patterned paper for the back ground, hand made flower and sentiment done on the computor.



Thats it for now  I have one more card to show you but I can't put it up till Monday, as it is Bryan's birthday card, he says he never comes here to look but I bet he does!!

Please leave a comment and tell me what you think.

Thanks for stopping by.

Cara's Mess

Well I finally finished the 3 cards I have been messing around with the last few days, my niece is getting married in Oct and my sister is wanting to make her cards so I was putting to-gether a few ideas for her...this is another take on the card I made before, it opens where the pink scalloped border is and you can put the invitation inside, I have some light pink paper that is perfect it looks sorta like parchment.




This card I was messing around with water color pencils on the flowers and thought I should do
something with them so here is my creation


This card is made with flower and butterfly stickers!  Spellbinders Nestabilities dies and cuttlebug embossing folder, piece of organdy ribbon I had here and computor generated sentiment.

Hope you like my messing around creations!
Please leave a comment and tell me what you think.

The first card is a sorta recyled card athe picture is actually the cover off of a note pad, I cut it up and inked the edges, the scroll pieces are part of a nestibilties die that I cut apart, dear friend is a SU stamp


My second atempt here is making paper flowers, I used the Nestibilities dies again to cut the flowers, inked the edges with SU ink, embossing is a newer Cuttlebug embossing called raindrops I think it is, border punch SU, ribbon from my stash, stamped sentiment SU


Hope you enjoyed my cards  Please leave a comment.

Black and White Wedding Cards Cased

A couple cards that we worked on at Fran's yesterday. These are cased ideas from blogging hopping...if I remember where I found them I will let you know.

Is there some sorta rule......if you ruin or waste cardstock it gives you an excuse to  buy more!! I must have ruined 2 sheets doing this card, it was a comedy of errors...using ticket punch instead of rounder not getting things on even and I see I still do not have things totally even..I will blame it on my eye, no one else to blame!

On this card I used the Stampin Up Bride paper for the hearts and the little flowers, the embossing was done with the Cuttlebug edge folders in my Big Shot.  Pearls are from Stampin Up


This picture is not the greatest the card is black, I should have put a white background behind it to take the picture.  Stampin Up border punch, bride paper and ribbon. The piece in the middle is silver SU paper

Thanks for havin a look see.  Please leave a comment
