Just Playing with my "Stuff"!

WOW.... I have TWO posts in TWO days!

 

Here are a few more cards I made with all my new loot! I purchased so must stuff!!! OMG!  It's going to take for EVER to open it all; and that's not all of it!  I should have taken a picture of the entire order!

 

 

This first card I made is basically a CASE from Linda Callahan. I changed up it up a little but the design idea is all hers.
Isn't that little guy hanging just a cutie!

 

 

The second one is a single layer stamping.... but still love the way it came out.

I also used all the new IN color inks.

 

Hope you like these as well!

SMILE with New Catty Fun

Today is a quick post to show off some of the new items from our new BIG catty.

New IN colors in cardstock and DSP and  new single stamp "A Little Smile".

Here is a cute card I made for friends that need a hug or two and a smile for sure.

  They recently lost a loved one.

 

I apologize for the poor photo ...I took it with my phone, and apparently there was not enough light either!

 It really looks dull here, but I assure you it's bright and cheery.

 I also used the new BIG polka dot embossing folder.  

If you click on the photo you can see the BIG embossed polka dots. LOVE THEM!

I tried to use all new IN colors in the card stock, DSP, and markers/inks with blender pens on my focal point and then popped it up with dimensionals.

Done!

Wedding for a Friend

This post is to show the card I made for one of our golfer friends. She had a destiny wedding in the KEYS and got married on the beach!  She made a beautiful bride.

 

 

Even though we couldn't be with her, we were with her in spirit.  So we celebrated in the parking lot of the golf course after golf last week. How fun. 

 

 

 

The card and gift was from our group of golfers - A backyard fire pit, along with all the fixings for SMORES; Some metal PIE irons, a galvanized beer tub with stand and a few more goodies. . She was surprise and excited to see how our gift will fit right into their new home backyard.

May Birthday Maddness!

May is such a busy busy month for birthday in my world. The dates for brithdays are ... May 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 (2), 9, 11, 18, 20, 22, 26, 28 & 31!!! Whew!

 

So I started making cards like crazy this weekend.. Today I am going to post just one of the cards I've completed this weekend because I know my brother won't be looking on my blog. His birthday is the 9th. Although many are before that  some I can't post until after the birthday... because I don't want the recipients to see it before they arrive in the mail!  They DO or MAY peek at my blog!

 

Anyway.... Today's card is for my younger brother and it's very simple die cuts and stamping. 

 

I used Kraft card stock as the base and background stamps to add fake texture!

The die cuts are popped up with pop-dots, except the die cut "58" on the shirt which is

his age.  Well one down and many more to go!
