You Rock Card

It's been a long time since I've updated my blog, so much has happened. A divorce, two moves and a new job (or two or three).  I haven't had time to do many cards until lately.  I've found stamp sets from Altenew that I love, I tend to make flower cards more than any other.  Their flower sets are layered making beautiful, more realistic flowers than I was able to make before.  They also come with dies, making it easy to cut the flowers out so I can stack them, and raise them, giving my cards more dimension.  Here's a card made with the Vintage Flowers stamp set and the Mega Word 2 die cut.  I cut 3 "you"s out and glued them together, and stamped and cut the flowers and glued them on, using pop dots on one rose.  I finished up with some bling scattered around.

Hello everybody, I made a cute card for my friend and co-worker.   It is made with Lori's Garden cartridge.  I really love that cartridge (I've probably said that before), but I thought this bird was not very pretty, but decided to use it anyway.


I found out I love it and have used a lot for cards.  I used a sizzix texture for the background, and added a blue gem for the eye and pearls for the center of the flowers. Thanks for stopping by.  God bless!  Stay safe those in Colorado Springs, they are fighting a big fire close to town.

Country Carnival-Hearts

Here's another card for my teenage grand(son) (daughter) I'm not too sure yet.  I used another card package from Studio G, also $1.00 at Walmart.  It has a hole in the card and I wasn't too sure how to use them till now.  The hearts are from the basic shapes in the Imagine, the butterfly and flowers from the Country Carnival cartridge, and the saying from Better Together cartridge.


I trimmed with gold stickles.  Thanks so much for stopping by!

Better Together-Valentine Bear

Here's a valentine card I made with the Imagine, the bear is from Better Together cartridge it has some good things to use for valentines.  I bought at Walmart, I got a package of Studio G, 8 cards and 8 envelopes for $1.00!  The heart and background are from the basic shapes in the imagine-though I think the background color is from Lori's Garden, and the flowers are from Country Carnival (I used those because I had them, but some of the flowers from Lori's Garden would work too).


I trimmed it with gold stickles, and added google eyes.  This is for my teenage grandchild, so I tried to make their cards a little different and no so childish.  Thanks for stopping by!

Lori's Garden-Tweetheart Valentine

I made several valentines cards today.  Since my grandchildren are getting bigger (most are teenagers now) I wanted to make them a little more mature.  I made this card for my Granddaughter, though she's not a teen yet. It's pretty in pink and full of gems.  Something I think a little girl would like!


 There's more coming up!
