Get Well Soon Card



A family member recently took ill and my husband and I decided a home-made card would be much appreciated. I went through all my images to find just the right one for her - it came from Dustin Pike. I used an Action Wobble (trimmed way down) to give action to the monkey's head. I have to admit, tho, I didn't do the best job stamping MONKEY, however, I know she'll love the card anyway. 


I even remembered to keep track of which Copics I used!

Friendship in Bloom

A friend is celebrating her birthday soon and I needed to create a special card for her.  She loves flowers and to work in her flower garden.  I've seen cards flowers made like this before and decided to give it a try.  Sorry, I'm really bad at keeping track of where I get my items I create with.  Friendship in Bloom is a rub-on.  I am quite pleased with how the card turned out. My friend loved it!

My Sister's Birthday Card

I purchased this image and decided it needed to be distressed. I crumpled the picture and roughed up the edges then added flower soft to the girl's flower basket. I also used Core'dinations Whitewash cardstock behind it - crumpling and distressing the edges of that as well as running a sanding block over it to bring out the color a little more. "Forever Young" is a vellum phrase that I added by running it through my Xyron "X" Sticker Maker.

Needless to say, my sister loved the card!

90th Birthday Card

A friend asked me to make a birthday card for her uncle who was turning 90.  WOW! Where do I even begin???  Well I had seen an idea long these lines out there some where and decided to find a car image and go from there.  She loved it and so did everyone else! WHEW!

For my little Valentine

This is the card I made for my little 2nd grade pen pal. She's such a sweetie! I love how the bee can be colored in so many different ways and still look darling! Hope you enjoy!

Almost Valentine's Day


A friend asked me to make a few Valentine's Day cards that she and her husband could send to their 2nd grade pen-pals.  I love this little bee.  It's perfect for many occasions! The top card will be sent to a little boy and the bottom obviously to a girl. I think the kids will be thrilled - they love to get mail!

Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma Bear

A dear lady recently passed away from non-hodgkins lymphoma. I made this bear and enclosed it in the sympathy card to the family. Rest in peace, Cindy.
