Mommy's birthday

My mom loves green, so each year I try to come up with a new design using a various shade of green.  Here is this year's card.  I used Nesties to cut out the circles and my cutter with SCAL to cut out the flowers. 

Cuttlebug cutouts

I made this birthday card by embossing it with a Cuttlebug folder, then used a craft knife to cut out some of the embossed areas.  Then I placed a piece of yellow cardstock behind the image and viola!!  Nothing new, but new to me.

Flowery birthday

Here is another birthday card for sister #3.  I stamped the flower image and then cut it out then popped it up.  Trying to broaden more horizons by trying different techniques.  I also used a Cuttlebug folder and a Nestie for the 'happy birthday' background.

Fur-ever

A girlfriend and her husband lost their Retriever recently and it has taken it's toll on the family.  I made this card to hopefully lighten her heart some and give her a little comfort. 

Monogrammed Birthday

I tried something new for a birthday card...I made this for my sister and I made it with her monogram, so that, unlike a typical birthday card that gets put away quickly, this was something she could keep up for a while.  :-D  Of course, that doesn't mean that she did!!  The black damask design was flocked so that added a little extra to it, I think.

Missing you

I helped my niece make this card for her family while she was visiting extended family over the summer.  I thought it was super cute, but I might be partial!

Been a while...lots going on

I know it's been a while since I posted anything, but I have made a few things.  My husband and I have had some changes in life which has kept us busy.  Now, I'm gonna try and do some catching up!
Here is a card I made for my brother for his birthday.  I think the inside reads:  What happened???  But I honestly can't remember.  (bad sister, I know!)
