Happy Monday!

Hi!  How are you today?  I have a few cards to share.  Two with the same stamp, I often like to try it with different backgrounds, etc.  Take a look, tell me what you think!

 

I picked up this sweet stamp at Hobby Lobby in the clearance section!!!

 

My Great-Grandson, Cayden is going to be 1 years old on Saturday, so I made this cute little card for him.  Where does the time go? 

 

Thanks for stopping by today, I will be really busy this weekend, my youngest Grandson is getting married on Friday and then Cayden's birthday party is on Sunday.  Hopefully I'll be able to get in my craft room and make something to share with you next week!  

Have a Great Week!

Some Flowers and a Graduation

Hello Everyone!  I have a couple of cards to share with you today.  Two with flowers and one graduation card for a very special boy in my life.  My great nephew has completed his GED course and passed!!!  I am very proud of him.

 My first card is a wedding card for my grandson Chris who is getting married to a wonderful girl on the 23rd of this month.  I embossed the layer with the D'Vine Swirl embossing folder.  My scalloped oval is from Elegant Edges. The stamp is from Technique Tuesday and it was colored with Spectrum Noir markers.

My second card is a friendship card.  All of my paper is from my scrap box.  The pretty polka-dot ribbon is from JoAnn's.  This stamp is also from Techinque Tuesday and I colored it with my markers.

 

My final card was made using my cricut!  I embossed the background paper with the spots and dots embossing folder.

I hope you enjoyed my cards today and I hope to see you again soon!  Enjoy your weekend!

Same Stamp, two cards!

Hello!!!!!  How are you?  I'm so happy you found time to stop by today.  Sorry for the gap in posts, I am still having some computer issues but more so, I've been under the weather and my RA is taking it's toll.  I'm trying desperately to get in my craft room but my body has other ideas.  Here are a couple of cards that I was able to make:

 

All of the paper used on these cards are from my scrap box.  The gorgeous rose stamp is from Techinque Tuesday Stamps.  On the red card, the oval was cut from Elegant Edges Cricut Cartidge and on the purple card, i used a small doiley.  

I hope you enjoyed your visit!  Be sure to come back on Thursday, I'll be participating in a "Christmas In July" Blog Hop!!!!!

Thank You Very Much!

Hello Everyone!  Still having some computer issues, it works when it wants to.  Sorry I haven't been commenting as much as I usually do but sometimes I simply can't.  I a couple of cards to share today, but first I want to say a big THANK YOU to my daughter and all of the ladies that participated in the surprise birthday blog hop!  I was totally surprised and sooooooo excited!!!!!!!  I would also like to say THANK YOU for all of the birthday wishes, I have the best followers and bloggie friends.  

 

 

This week, I decided to try out some dies.  I very rarely use them but thought I'ld give it a try.  The banner on the Thank You card is from Verve.  And the flags/banners on the birthday card is from MFT.  I'm hoping to experiment with some dies soon!  My "Thank You" stamp is from Hero Arts and the birthday stamps are from Paper Trey Ink.

Don't forget to head over to Nana's Scrap Spot to see who won the blog candy!  She picked one winner from my blog!!!!

Thanks for stopping by and Have a Great Weekend!
