Craft Show!

Can you believe? I just got invited to show and sell my cards in a local craft show this fall! Wow! I participated in it last year, but never thought they'd call me back! Wow!
Oh my....... I guess I better get busy making lots of cards to sell....... AAACCCKKK!!!
Wish me luck! I think I'll need it!

Baby Boy Joy Fold card



Ok, so I am totally addicted to making these Joy Fold cards. I love them - they're sooo simple and they can be used for any occasion and they're sooo cute!!! HERE's where to find the directions to make them.

Owl Card


My husband needs two cards shaped like owls. He's in the Owl Patrol in his Woodbadge Scout Troop and two of his friends are graduating and getting their Woodbadge beads - this is quite an honor and accomplishment. It took some time and work with DS, but I finally got it to cut they way I hoped. I created this with the Animal Kingdom cartridge. It's nothing fancy....... but it suits his purpose just fine.

Cupcake card


I just love Liquid Applique. You can put it on and heat it immediately or you can let it set overnight and then heat it the next day. Doesn't it give a great accent to the cupcake?

I added a little glitter after heating the LA to give it a little shimmer.

Golf card


A friend asked me to make a special birthday card for her niece who is really into golf. I had sooo much fun making this one and they were all tickled with how it turned out. I used glitter paper for the ball. I cut this one from the Sports Mania cartridge.

It's a Boy card


Here's one of my favorite Boy cards to make. I set this up in Design Studio and cut it all from the New Arrival cartridge. Then I just print off a nice sentiment and put that inside the card. I just love making these special cards to welcome new babies.
